[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 427553, member: 12578"] It's a basic meter with none of the 'bells and whistles' of the verio. whether that's important depends on how much you use them. Looking at the spec for the icare, one thing I did notice was that the temperature range was narrower than the Verios. The lowest temp it will work at is 10c compared to the Verios 6c. It also says that if you get a low temp warning that you have to put it in a warmer place and wait 30 min before trying again. Yes, you obviously have to keep both meters insulated when outdoors in winter (I have to when I go skiing) but that difference of 4 degrees could be significant if you spend much time outdoors in a UK winter or even in a non centrally heated bedroom or bathroom.
