Hiya

I have a 670g Medtronic, I am looking for accessories to make it easier and comfortable to wear during the day as well as during the night.

I have tried the clip but find the excess tubing to catch on stuff and the clip quite uncomfortable

I have tried pouch4all waist band and while comfortable I have found that it's hard to manage the pump while using it as well as it keeps turning around or moving about.

What do you guys use or recommend?
 
I've just started using a 670g (as of about 11:00 this morning), I know I was recommended the pouches here: http://www.hid-in.com/shop/multiway-body-band by @porl69 , have ordered one but haven't got it yet so can't say whether its good, bad or indifferent for me - I ordered the one with the window. I saw there was a large selection on Amazon but yes too much choice just getting confusing.
So far only the tubing is annoying me (I can feel it on my stomach), I may get used to it though, probably need to give it more than 4-5 hours
 
Yeah the tubing is quite annoying especially when you use just the clip iv had handles hooks you name it rip it off by walking past. Painful!

Il have a look into that waistband thank you I love the 670g since I got it in Feb it's been a huge difference in levels and QOL
 
@Rokaab the tube feeling will go pretty soon. You wont even know you have the pump on you in a week or so.
I have had a couple of different belts, Amazon etc and they are not very well made. The HidIn ones are brilliant
