I am trying to choose between two free Care Sens monitors - N POP and TEE2. The N POP is smaller and lighter and has a larger memory, but the TEE2 has a longer battery life. The test strips for the N POP are dearer @ £12.75 + VAT, while the strips for the TEE2 are only £7.75 + VAT. I would love to hear from anyone who has used either or both of these monitors.
 
I have no experience of the N POP but I do have a TEE2 and it is a reasonably good meter. the fact that the TEE2 is free and comes with free spare batteries, data cable and software CD as well as test strips being so reasonably priced is what did it for me. I also have an accu-chek Mobile which is great but the cartridges are a bit pricey so I use it sparingly.
 
Thanks very much, John. You have convinced me to get the TEE2. Now I need to decide which lancets to order. Please can anyone explain the difference between 28G and 30G lancets?
