A Fitbit Alta charger is a small open cradle on a short USB cable. The end of the tracker slides into the shell, two contact pins meet the pads on its back, and the fit holds it there while it charges. If yours has gone loose, corroded at the pins or disappeared, this is the replacement.
This is the part worth reading before you order. The Alta and the Alta HR use different connectors. The Alta and Alta Ace take one shell; the Alta HR uses a two-pin arrangement and a shell cut to a different depth. They look close enough in a photograph to be mistaken for each other, and a Fitbit Alta charger bought for the wrong one will hold the tracker and never charge it.
Choose the variation that matches what is printed on the back of your tracker. If it says Alta HR, take the two-pin fitbit alta hr charger option rather than the plain Alta shell.
Some Fitbit Alta charger shells carry a small pinhole on the back. That is a reset, and it is genuinely useful: a tracker that has stopped responding can often be brought back by seating it in the charger and holding a pin in that hole for a few seconds, rather than being written off.
If you have ever had an Alta freeze, take the version with the button. If you only want to charge, the plain shell does that identically and costs less. Both are a Fitbit Alta charger in every other respect.
There is no magnet in a Fitbit Alta charger. The shell is moulded plastic with two gold pins inside, and it holds the tracker by shape and friction — slide the end in until it seats and the pins meet the contacts. Nothing to align, nothing to pair, and nothing to wear out but the shell itself.
The USB-A end goes into whatever supplies power — a laptop, a wall plug you already own, a power bank. The tracker draws a small steady current and stops when it is full, so there is no fast-charge standard involved and none would help: an Alta battery fills in an hour or so from anything.
The lead is deliberately short, which is the right call on a tracker charger — it coils into a pocket, does not tangle in a bag, and puts less leverage on the shell when it is knocked off a desk.
The shell is what decides how long a Fitbit Alta charger lasts. One that has gone soft holds the tracker loosely, the pins lose contact, and the charge stops halfway through the night. Every Alta shell and fitbit alta hr charger here is moulded to keep its shape and hold the tracker square against the pins, and the cable runs into a shaped neck rather than a butt joint so the usual bend is spread over a longer run.
The Alta is old enough that most of these have had years of daily use, and a tracker that will not charge is a tracker that stops being worn. A fitbit alta hr charger or a plain Alta shell costs a fraction of replacing the tracker, and a second one kept at work means a flat battery never ends the week early.
