Flaky Simpleras

Just as a heads-up for other MM780G users. I seem to have had a run of dodgy Simplera sensors. I’ll have been on the MM780G for a year this month (or next?) and this is the first time I’ve had a sequence of sensors that have ended early, or just not started at all.

This morning’s fail was the second sensor on the trot that only made it to about 3 days. :(

I’m getting in the habit of taking a meter around with me just in case.

It may just have been a dodgy box, and Medtronic have a very easy way of ordering replacements, but it’s still a bit of a faff.

Hoping that my fresh box goes back to each sensor running full duration!
 
Hmmm
Just put a new one in and it started the warm up then promptly told me to change the sensor before it even started. Nothing obvious when I took it out and I definitely had a hole so it had gone in okay.
 
Darn. I was expecting a tapas recipe.

Haha!

The things that don’t even occur to you when you try to think up a shorter title than “I’ve had a few Medtronic Simplera Sensors that have ended a little earlier than expected recently” :D :D :D
