Fitbit Has Another Fire To Put Out

Fitbit (NYSE:FIT) can't seem to catch a break, and now sales that were already going the wrong way may take longer to recover. A Wisconsin woman claims that she was wearing a Fitbit fitness tracker when it exploded on her arm, causing her to suffer second-degree burns.

Fitbit is naturally looking into the situation, but it's not going to rush into a recall of the Fitbit Flex 2 bracelets. This is the first time that it has been made aware of a safety issue with any of its devices. Fitbit sells a ton of trackers, 22.3 million connected devices last year alone.
