Keeps giving the "Slow Charge" warning. - disappointing
The charge plate that came with my Sense has a fairly short lead and is very light, so when charging, the watch flops about awkwardly. This Kimilar stand is much better, holding the watch at a suitable viewing angle so I can wake it with a double tap. However, whatever power source I connect it to - laptop output, powered USB hub, or wall charger, it repeatedly lights up with the Slow Charge warning. I've checked, and using the supplied charger on these sources doesn't produce the warning. I have cleaned the pins and the contacts - though this isn't needed with the supplied charger - but to no avail.I assume there is some sort of design or manufacturing fault, but as it's convenient to use I put up with it, but if it breaks I'll not buy another one of this model.

Good replacement charger for fitbit Sense
Ive found this to be a good replacement for the poorly constructed original charge cable that came with my fitbit sense!I use this one plugged into the same Amazon Flex that I used for original cable - this one charges fine - where as original would say slow charging!Truthfully I had experienced alot of 'slow charging' alerts with original charger no matter where it was plugged in but this one works fine!Just to note - I did put my Sense on charge & forgot about it for a couple of days - this stand did not over heat - once fully charged it had shut off & my sense had used up some of its battery like it normally would if I had been wearing it! (It was plugged into the USB port of Amazon Flex which was plugged into a 'Surge Protect' extension cable - I tend to use these for all my high priced tech nowadays!)Not sure how long this charger will last BUT as the original did not even last 9 months - which I understand is a common issue - annoying when you consider how much a Sense costs - if this one breaks in same place then its more likely to be a design fault with the Sense charging system rather than poor construction!

Has the "third pin" problem, but lasts longer than stock
As far as I can see, it's a well built charger, it's fast, the magnet who holds the watch is reliable, and gives a satisfying "thunk" when you attach your watch.However, I'm not sure if this will show the third-pin-problem over time (the issue that the spring in the first pin on the second row malfunctions), so I'm keeping the 5th star in my pocket for now, but I'm open to bring it at a later date.Sorry about this, but going through 5 chargers for the fitbit sense with this problem makes one a bit cynical...Edit: Charging two Senses for 3 months and now it's broken. Lasts longer than an original, seems faster, but still, it breaks

Works when it wants
I have had nothing but problems with this since purchasing it , it does charge my watch , however you have to mess on turning the watch to certain angles for it to work , can take a few minutes which is neither here or there but should just be able to place it on to the watch without any adjustments needed

Better than the official fitbit charger
This works more than the original/official fitbit charger which is utterly useless. Having had my fitbit replaced as faulty and it still not charging with the official one, I gave in and bought this docking charger. Works every time. No problems whatsoever. Fitbit versa 2.
