[QUOTE="Scott-C, post: 2098516, member: 374531"] The filament is coated with the enzyme glucose oxidase, which reacts chemically with passing glucose to produce an electrical current which is proportional to the amount of glucose. As it's an enzyme involved in a chemical reaction, heat makes it more active, hence the apparent bg rise. The sensor has thermistors which are meant to adjust for temperatur changes, but, as you've seen, they can have trouble with hot showers. [/QUOTE]
