For anyone else who reads this thread... the OP's problem is that his firmware is out of date... and the "Output #2" is simply the "change" from the transaction... it is NOT a fee.
Updating to the latest firmware will prevent this "confirm output #2" issue.
Topic: Inexplicably high fees on my Ledger Nano S (Read 411 times)
Problem is solved, thanks for reading!
I am a newbie and posted a similar question on the beginners page, so maybe this post is double. But the problem may be technical really. Here it is:
When I try to send 0.4 Bitcoin with my Ledger Nano S and the Ledger app, in the app a transaction fee is quoted of about 0.0015 bitcoin. But in the screen of the Ledger Nano S itself I have to 'Confirm output #2' for an amount of about 0.04 Bitcoin (25 times more). That 0.04 would be the transaction fee, right? I tried to do the same with sending 0.01 Bitcoin. There a fee of 0.00075 was quoted in the app, but on the screen of the Ledger I had to confirm an amount #2 of 0.16 Bitcoin! Always to the same address, 34ujQ..ekUk.
So can anyone explain what is going on here? I did not confirm any of the #2 amounts, because I don't want to pay $700-2700 for a transaction! But I don't know how to change this, so now I can't send any Bitcoins.
I did try to enter the satoshi amount myself (500), but then the same thing happens: a small amount is quoted in the app, a large fee appears on the screen of the Ledger app. I put in a request for this at the Ledger website already, but their answer can take weeks.
Some extra info: the 0.4 Bitcoin would consist of 3-4 bits of coin in my wallet.
