Just a quick one does anyone know how much to fill the cannula on the animas inset 30, I think it's 0.7, but just want to make sure
 
Good luck Topher with the Inset 30. I like it very much and it knocks spots off the other 30 degree angle sets. Remember when you insert the introducer, the semi circle plastic bit will fall off from the front of the set. Pull the window adhesive bit off and stick it down, then keep yr finger over the window bit and pull back the introducer needle by pulling back the white spring to the lock position again and then the introducer comes away. Then lift up the large bits of the set and pull off the other bits of adhesive and then lay it flat down on the skin. Dont worry if the set adhesive is a bit crinkled on yr first attempt. The set will still be ok but as they say......practice makes perfect. If using set in backside, try to make sure that you can attach the tube clip ok and if necessary get help or use a mirror.

Let us know if its been mission possible?

Is it made differently to the Silhouettes then...? I get good absorption from Sils, but they hurt / leave marks in me...
 
I think the introducer is slightly thinner and sharper compared to the Comfort and Tenderlink set and I imagine that the Silsden are made more or less the same. Why don't you see if an account can be set up Animas to supply the Medtronic cartridge adaptor to accept luer tubes and then try the Inset 30......I would be surprised if you didn't like it.
