At one time you could only get a Medtronic 670 if you could financially commit to full time sensors, without using the restarts that I know people have used on other sensors.

Has anyone been able to order sensors for the 670 intermittently?
I would hope to use them, with restarts where possible to extend the life of each sensor, or even at times switch back to manual mode if necessary.
 
You can restart the sensors but it takes a lot of fiddling around. I don't restart mine but there are videos on youtube.

Thanks.
How have you found your 670?
 
670g, 2 weeks on auto-mode now, patience is the key as the system works your body out. The cannulas are the best I have ever used! Verdict so far: The best pump I have ever had!
 
Good to hear.
Watching with interest.
