Guys, I bought a brand new Fitbit Charge HR black and selected the small option because my wrists are not very huge.

No I'm realizing that the band even for me is too small, I can use it but it should have been a few holes bigger for my liking. So now I'm wondering if I can make anyone happy with it or if someone with a Charge HR large is actually looking for a small one than I don't mind trading. As long as it isn't damaged.

If you have a damaged Charge HR large than you can't get warranty for anymore I don't mind buying it from you so I can replace my band.

Send me a PM to get it touch.

Thanks guys!

i ordering one replacement band, want to order together ??

Hi guys. Any idea where can I find a replacement charger for fitbit charge hr? Everything on lazada ships from overseas. Found on Harvey Norman site but it's at Rm95. A tag bit overpriced for a USB cable IMHO.

hahahhah this is one crazy prices smile.gif

Shall I wait for the blaze to release or get surge directly?

I am more on gym, yoga, park jogging, body pump and treadmills.

Just curious why blaze a color screen band cheaper than surge. But blaze sound like more to 2016 product lol.

What kind of sports you do usually? Does it work out accurately in term of calories burn, HR Rates, Step and so on?

Other than jogging, sports like class in gym, yoga, body pump and so on, have you tried it out yet? Accuracy of heart rates?
*
gym, jogging and some extreme sport (which i won't wear fitbit)

If use for gps (10k) daily then need to charge every alternate day

The app is simple and intuitive, but not as many data collected compare to garmin if u r an avid runner.
Most probably forerunner 235 or Fenix3 hr. Can't live without optical HR tracking since I got the surge haha

vivio smart HR come with optical HR la .....
wanted to try this but size kind of big compare with fitbit charge HR cause i still wearing watch on my left hand smile.gif

Accuracy is a relative term.

It depends on your need actually, unless you are having heart problem or you are a hardcore endurance athlete, I would say the HR reading variance is still acceptable for most technologies.

Mio may be a good optical HR on its own but the ecosystem / app is quite weak compare to fitbit

MIO also don't have all day HR monitoring ........ if use fuse for one full day, i think we need to charge it on daily basic ...

Can I conclude in this way,

MIO = Great on HR accuratecy
FITBIT = Great for usage in gym fitness
Garmin = ???

Comparing to get either surge or forerunner smile.gif
Just hope that the data being collected and easier to view on results and sort like that.

if u not looking for full day HR, go for mio fuse which i find it nice to wear ....

I have the Polar for heart rate monitoring while doing sports, mainly running or cycling. I disliked the idea of wearing the strap all day... even while at work.

Is the Fitbit Charge HR suitable for me for ongoing continuous HR monitoring 24x7?
*
yes and it look nice too .... is obvious but not that obvious tongue.gif
