Hi,
Did a quick search but couldn't find anything.Does no one else have a problem with the short life of batteries in a glucolab meter?I changed batts 10/4 and again today 17/5 I only use meter usually once a day so surely they should last longer than that.
I should add that this wasn't the first time I thought the batts should last longer so I bought my own and logged the date I changed them so i don't think it can be two or three lots of faulty batteries.
According to the operation manual batt life should be 1 year after purchase :(
 
Have you contacted the manufacturer? It looks like a faulty meter rather than it being the batteries.

Yes I did,they didn't seem too fussed said they would send me a couple more batteries and see how it goes from there.I'll stick them in when they arrive and see how long they last again.
Just wondered if anyone else had the same problem.
