[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1082667, member: 211504"] I used to tape off my sensor before showering, but ultimately gave up on it as it became too high maintenance. I workout hard pretty much every single day and usually get drenched in sweat so a 15 minute shower is the least of my worries. I'm currently on my 9th day with this sensor and will probably replace it tonight. Call me crazy, but the only thing I've done to this sensor (like many of my past sensors) is add a bit of "Krazy Glue" to the edges that are peeling up. Note- Krazy glue is a high strength all purpose glue (cyanoacrylate) and is by no means intended for medical uses (however plenty of people use it in that way). It costs me about $4usd and a bottle would last me a full year if I needed it to. [/QUOTE]
