[QUOTE="Hill28, post: 861012, member: 138486"] [USER=100997]@obates[/USER] I don't have any experience with swimming with sensors yet. It was just me reasoning. I will go on a beach holiday in June and can post my experiences then. [USER=147474]@pinewood[/USER] I think I have now done 7 sensor placements over Compeed (without cutting a hole in it first) and about 5 have worked, 2 sensors in a row became instantly useless. Don't know what caused the 2 sensors not to work: when I took them off I saw the small plastic thing coming out of my skin (so it should have been able to read I guess). Maybe the small actual sensor can get confused when it gets Compeeds glue on it while shooting it through. However the Compeed has until now prevented any further skin reactions for me. Tip: I now order 2 sensors at a time, so I have one left if one fails..(it's expensive yes I know) [/QUOTE]
