So... I have just used 10 strips with error 6 coming up each time, it's not the first time but 10 strips down has really ****** me of. What's going on?
I don't have a Keya meter and can't find the manuals online to work out what error code 6 indicates.
However, the last time my meter kept giving errors was when it was too cold. At the time I noticed, it could also error if it was too hot. So I wonder if this is your problem - has your meter been sitting in direct sunlight, for example?

I keep it in a bag, out the way of everything, so it's not been in direct sun light. Could it be my blood, my blood is just running down my finger, it's not very thick for lack of a better term?
All strips (regardless of the manufacturer) will do the same @joshluck if insufficient blood is applied, just be sure to draw enough blood from your finger so that you don't get the error code, if not enough blood is coming out then set your lancing device on a higher setting.
Could be a problem that the capillary action that "sucks" your blood into the test strip is not working.
Weirdly, I experienced something similar when my battery was running low.
Although, I also find when my fingers are wet and the blood is "thinner" it also does not "suck" so well.
