Hi Dave.

Just know that on the one touch the range of 80 to 120 is actually 70 to 107.

I.E 70 is actually a plasma reading of 80 and 107 on the one touch is actually a

plasma reading of 120. Shoot for that range on the one touch and you'll be fine.

Regards,

yes, the one touch has the ability to speak but you have to purchase a separate

speech box for it. I posted the info a few months back for Harry. Harry, do you

have that information still? Can you repost?

thanks for the info.

I use comfort curves on mine. it does beep, but like you said

it makes you think that you have enough blood on the strip, and then it

tells it has an erro.

I like the idea where you put the blood on the strip, and insert it into the

monitor.

cause that is where my problem is, is getting blood on the strip when the

strip is in the monitor.

Well, it does beep, but it is not very loud. Too bad the beep volume can't be

adjusted.

You can't put the blood on the strip, at least in my present on Accu-check,

or it will tell you " remove strip " .

Yes, The One touch talks; it uses a lot more blood than he Accu-check. the

Acucheck does not use much blood at all. I don't bleed very easily, so that

is about the only feature I like about the Accucheck.

the one touch doesn't use that much blood any more. it uses half of what it

used to since they developed new strips for the unit 8 months ago.

many ways!

I've got plenty of lancets, I'm looking for another device that the lancets

go in. Mine is cracked and doesn't function well. I took it to my local

CVS store and they said they didn't have one like it and that I needed to

contact the company.

Hmm. I did the same thing and my local Walgreen's had one. Maybe you need

to try a different store? I don't know where you live, so don't know what

is available.

Yes, if you contact the company, they will send you replacement. It did

happen with me before with the one-touch Ultra.

you can call life scan and order their lancet device if not mistaken. the one

touch basic is the only one that measures plasma and the profile/basic measures

whole blood. In whole blood meters, you just add about 10 points to your reading

and that is very close to the plasma reading.

Plasma? ya, all modern blood meters measure plasma in the blood to give you your

reading.

last year they changed their strips. They only need half the blood now and that

is basically just a little pin head drop on it now so they compete with all

modern strips now. You can talk to life scan about the new strips when you phone

them.

you do, call life scan and you can get one from them. If recalling, they are

expensive though like 30 bucks but don't quote me on it. If you have any one

touch meter, they should replace it for free if not mistaken but you have to

bein their records.
