051413_Force_popUpBanner_grey_oHere’s the entire article withFitBit refund information – basically it involves skin irritation.  Note: On February 20, 2014, Fitbit Inc. announced a refund program for the Fitbit Force. This news release serves as the official Consumer Products Safety Commission recall announcement.

Hazard:  Users can develop allergic reactions to the stainless steel casing, materials used in the strap, or adhesives used to assemble the product, resulting in redness, rashes or blistering where the skin has been in contact with the tracker.  So it’s not like your skin will drop off like a zombie or something…unless you plan to attend the Walker Stalker Con this weekend.
