[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 148952, member: 12578"] Can I clarify, I meant the canula didn't float off while swimming in salt water, like others I wouldn't wear my pump in the water. When I was deciding which pump to get I originally wanted to get a waterproof one but then the French health care authority issued a notice stating that no pumps, [b]even those that are claimed to be waterproof[/b] should be warn in the water. They had a number of cases of pumps (I think mostly cosmos) that were later found to have hairline cracks and then failed after being used in water. This is the same reason that Medtronic stopped claiming its pumps were waterproof. Actually now I really can't imagine that I'd want to wear it in the water, but then I don't stay in as long as a child might want to. [/QUOTE]
