[QUOTE="Hill28, post: 765090, member: 138486"] I think the accuracy isn't the biggest problem. If you just manage to be on 5/6 mmol you're always fine, even if it's 2mmol out on times (which it of course shouldn't be). My last (unpleasent to my skin) sensor was just 0,1 mmol out the 3 times I checked it. Furthermore you have to blood check values you don't trust. Values above 8 I tend to correct because i know libre mostly indicates slightly lower values. However, of course they need to prevent the really dodgy sensors which are inaccurate. Furthermore I think the sensor lifetime should be shortened for the sake of preventing skin problems. It's just not healthy to have sensors breeding on infections and other odd skin reactions for 14 days. Of course shortening lifetime would have to mean also a price drop. [/QUOTE]
