This is more of a general pondering. Really just hoping someone from Garmin actually reads this and drives positive change, because I love the products. I am on my third Vivoactive and they have all utilized the same charging method. The method is unreliable and every month or so, I have to break out a can of cleaner and a qtip to clean the contacts and make sure the spring loaded pins are actually moving. The pucks the charge my watch only seem to last about a year before I have to replace them. As a means of comparison, my wife has had a few apple watches over the same amount of time, and at a similar price point, yet her watches have all charged reliably with the same charger over the entire time.
I am mostly pleased with the product, but this 'quirk' as we seem to call those nagging little issues, is just tiresome. Please Garmin, please address this weakness.
