I also have an old hp lappy I could put stretch on. And I found a BT dongle but no clue yet if compatible with the BTLE of the fitbit. More checking to see if it can pair. But I just now installed the rest of the BT toy's, but not checked for function yet. Might have to buy another dongle. And/or find a place to put things in this midden heap. Too many years in the same house, but its paid off too.
