Is plugging the fuel band into the computer the only way to charge it?



Question:

I am taking my Nike fuelband overseas and I do not own a laptop. Is plugging the fuel band into the computer the only way to charge it?

Answer:

You can charge the Nike+ FuelBand through any USB charger. You will want to make sure you are using the extension cord that came with the device. If you are plugging it into a wall USB adapter, Nike recommend also using a surge protector to protect the device from electrical surges.

Just make sure that the device's battery is not completed depleted when you do so.

      You have to reset to the factory setting in order to fix it. You're welcome!

    I plugged the cord it came with into the cube for my iPhone charger and that seems to be working.. Shows the bat and the dots increasing over time as its charging...

    I have lost the charger - so how do I charge it now? People are saying a USB charger but it has to be the right connection to the fuelband ...What will connect into the fuelband itself? Can you buy replacements?? x

      A male to female USB cable will be okay, you can plug into any pc to charge the fuelband
