Fenix 5 series battery charge on the go

Fenix 5... owners, how do you charge the battery on the go? With new cable and connector type I do not see how is it possible to keep watch on your wrist and charge it. May be some new type of clips already made for fenix 5 series watches?

    I don't think there's a clip yet to charge Fenix 5 on the wrist. Even if there was, you wouldn't get optical heart rate since OHR sensor is off when the watch is charging. Other than that, charging during activity works just fine. So basically you just have to stick the watch to the pack/pocket or similar and plug it.
  • Unfortunately there is no angled cable available or something like that , a lot of users would like to have one, Garmin was asked a lot from Garmin Fenix 5 series users, but the ignored the wish of the users. I am wondering why no 3 party company has made one...

    More than likely due to licensing restrictions,
