Meter and temperatures

Try just warming the strips on their own. The strips contain the enzyme used to sense the glucose, and this may be temperature sensitive. The meter should have been designed to meet normal temperature conditions and compensate itself electonically.

However what i have said above does not seem to be the case in the real world

Yesterday I discovered that if I warm the meter by putting it in my pocket for a few minutes, the readings are much more to my liking.

Next time we get a really cold day, in the interests of science, i will put the strips in my other pocket!

You might be better off putting your hands in your pockets the warm your fingers up.

Meters and strips are designed to work between a maximum high and low temperature environment.
