[QUOTE="Bigonabianchi, post: 2384162, member: 540487"] Good advice thank you all :) my hands were cold and I hadn’t thought about warming them up to get blood to flow better. I have the needle set on number 3 as that’s where it said to start at in the instructions . I felt it good and proper too lol! I dipped it vertically but will try the 45degree thing next attempt and scoop it a bit . I did use the finger side this time but I’m going to want to use a different location once I get this sorted out and test regularly as I really don’t like the finger thing as I play guitar a lot ... I tried the fleshy rear of my right hand back of the palm behind little finger near my wrist , I felt less of a prick ( did I just say that) but got almost zero blood there so thinking I should set it at four or five at that location perhaps . Good to know the Bluetooth thing isn’t really necessary :) [/QUOTE]
