Garmin Fenix 3 HR "self made charging"

Introduction

cut off the mini-USB, or micro-USB, or Thunderbolt and remove the isolation of the red and the black wires.

the red wire will go on the top of the 4 contacts.

the black will go on the bottom last of the 4 contacts.

be creative and fasten them to the fenix 3. I used a clip and insulted it with a piece of plastic. you can also use duck take or similar to stick the 2 wires to the corresponding contacts on the fenix.

plug in the USB to a USB port or USB charging plug.

on the display you should now see the charging %

great job, very easy to do it. The hard part is that the wiring is too small :)
