Description

I got tired of the unusual design of the Mi Bands charger, which doesn't allow for a simple way to dock the watch unlike other smartwatches with the weighted puck. So, I designed this dock which allows the watch to sit landscape in order to easily view charging info. The dock houses the charging connector allowing you to simply dock the watch to charge in a neat and organised way.

The dock should also fit other fitness bands that use the same charger as the mi bands such as the amazfit band 5, I only own a mi band 6 myself though so I'm not able to test this. 

 

Additional Parts

The underside of the dock has a rectangle recessed compartment. This is for sticking a few adhesive wheel weights to provide a bit more weight if you would like. the compartment is big enough for two 5g weights.

 

Printing Instructions

The Dock can be printed in any kind of plastic you would like I used PETG but even PLA would be fine.

I printed mine with a 40% infill and in prusa slicer I enabled “Support on build plate only” to keep the holes uniform. 

 

Post Processing Steps

The tolerances on the part are fairly tight, especially around the area where the charging connector sits. I would recommend before forcing the connector into the hole to ensure the hole is free from any burs or edges left from the supports. You can use a drill bit for this either with a hand tool or slowly on a drill.
