Hi all

i have been using an Accu-Check mobile for a few months (my first meter) and yesterday i got a One Touch Select Plus, and thought i would see if they gave the same results! this was done within 2 mins of each other, from same finger, before meal

has anyone else tried 2 different machines and got quite different results?

I've got about 8-10 different glucometers and I'd be willing to bet that if I tested using all of those meters on the same drop of blood, they'd probably yield a completely different reading.

Personally, I think the One-Touch meters are junk, but that's an opinion rather than fact.

Side note: one of your meters is 1hr off
