[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1346611, member: 196898"] OK, the Supercheck 2 from Apollo Medical technologies is not looking good either. According to their ownwebsite their meter accuracy is +/- 20% on a test sample of 159 patients, so it does not meet the ISO requirements. so should have failed the CCG selection process. The listing on Amazon is also showing indefinite unavailable, but drugs direct is offering the strips at £15.64 per 50 strips, so again fails the CCG process. which required the vat free price to be under £10. The Vat free price from Mistry.com is £ 9.35, but would you trust a strip source of this name? This meter does not store results that register as HI or LO, so does not store hypo or hyper events in memory. 6 second result display delay makes it slower than the others. It is Plasma calibrated. One user found, who was unable to silence the voice announcements, which makes use in an open plan office indiscreet. It[SIZE=5][B] is[/B][/SIZE] possible according to the user manual, as is the toggle between English and Spanish so this problem is not real. However, user manual is not the simplest to follow in this area. Another user reported that it needs noticeably bigger sample size than their old meter. [/QUOTE]
