Or bin the fitbit get trainers run till your knackered, walk back , you know like we did in the old daysJust thinking. I use a fitbit, and I got into the habit of charging it every few days when I had a shower. (charging it every few days, not having a shower every few days!)
Is there something i can use inside the bathroom to give me a standard 5v USB socket?
Of course you can get a single socket with a usb in it, but cant use that in the bathroom.
Could I take a supply from the shaver socket, but would it have to come from the output side of the transformer?
Could I use a regular plug in usb charger with European pins and plug it into the shaver socket?
Any thoughts?
…..but no comment to that!It is a Fitbit which requires a hard and not wireless connection.
Just for the sake of the thread. The MK module mentioned has ‘don’t install in a bathroom’ in the MI despite the SELV rating.
Found while my electrician was working through my new refurb spec!
Exactly that. Missed opportunity with most new small rechargeable everythings being USB now. I noticed that the new model toothbrushes are usb with a ‘British bit’ added In the box to allow for our old fashioned 2 pin use.interesting, probably due to high moisture levels corroding the internals.
more a warrenty issue than a safety issue I expect.
but if the MI says no then,
it is unsuitable for that use.
I find better results from checking someone else over...Surely wearing it on the shower is better? I mean it's an ideal chance to check yourself over and as we know one thing leads to another, it'll improve your step count drastically...
