For those that wear a FitBit on a watchband: when was the last time you cleaned it?
I'm sorry, but you may be about to experience a terrifying reality on your arm.
I have a set of washable bands that I swap out weekly. Cause, ewwwww.
@Cosmichomicide
It wasn't the band. I just installed a new, metal one.
There is a lot of room for "stuff" to collect on the device itself.
Oh yeah - but I clean all my "fingers" electronics at least weekly - phone, keyboard, mouse and Fitbit .
You are clearly a better person than am I.
Do you have a keyboard that is separate from your computer?
OK, so I have 3 keyboards, not including the one I never use on the laptop. Every week they get a superficial cleaning, periodically I pull their little caps off and give them the deep cleaning love and attention they deserve.
@Cosmichomicide
I often do a
- Shake
- Shake
- Shake
and marvel at how much falls out.
When I post that recommendations to my FB friends I get a lot of disgusted reactions from those that do it.
My keyboard ritual is the traditional shake, followed by the old school compressed air (though I have a gun for that and not the disposable cans), followed by slime/goo. If anything seems like it's not responsive, I pull the key and clean or replace the switch and/or cap entirely.
And yes, folks need to clean their keyboards just to get an idea of how EWWWWW things can be.
