[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1826278"] According to Animas ([URL]https://www.animascorp.co.uk/insulin-pumps/vibe-insulin-pump[/URL]) the operating conditions for the Vibe is: "+5° C (+40° F) to +40° C (+104° F) Outside these temperatures, the flow accuracy and time to occlusion could be compromised. 700 Hpa to 1060 Hpa 20% to 90% relative humidity, including condensation up to 3048 meters (10,000 feet)" I found, keeping mine out of direct sunlight, I never needed to add extra insulation. I can't find the exact instructions for Omnipod with a quick google but all I read suggests about the same temperature range. And test strips also work up to +40° C Edited to add: Frio have a pump wallet if you find you feel you will be in very hot temperatures ([URL]https://friouk.com/product/pump-wallet/[/URL]). Although not suitable for Ominpod. [/QUOTE]
