[QUOTE="azure, post: 694608, member: 39639"] I don't have a problem with my basals. I find the adjustments I can do on my current pump perfectly ok. My last Hba1C was 35 and I'm happy with that. The only tweaking I try to do is to reduce post-meal spikes and at the moment I'm concentrating on my diet to do that. The cartridge is tiny. Utterly pointless in my opinion. Accu Chek totally missed a trick by not having it take proper 3ml pen cartridges. As you say, priming the Rapid D tubing will use up lots of insulin before you even start thinking about boluses. My current pump is hassle-free. I drop a cartridge in and it's ready to go. Each cartridge lasts me approx 12 days. The battery lasts a couple of months. When I go away, there's no extras to take, unlike the Insight, where I was thinking it'd end up with it's own suitcase. There's no point in making a smaller pump if it takes up a stupid amount of time and comes with loads of paraphernalia to lug about. I was really disappointed in it. [/QUOTE]
