Overview
Pairing a glucometer with a lancing device, strips and a charger, this kit is sold as a complete starter set. The meter is rechargeable and comes with a travel case for carrying.
The reason to look at it is that nothing extra is needed to start testing: strips, lancets, a lancing device and a charging cable are all included. The limitation is the sparse listing, which says nothing about accuracy, memory or app connectivity.
Who it's for
Adults managing glucose checks who want a rechargeable meter and a large initial supply of strips and lancets. Anyone who needs documented accuracy figures, or who already owns a different brand of strips, should check elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Large starter supply included
- Travel case included
- Lancing device included
- Accuracy figures not listed
- App compatibility not stated
- Strip compatibility with other meters unknown
Performance notes
A glucometer reads blood glucose from a drop applied to a test strip, so the strip supply sets how many checks you can run. A lithium polymer cell is recharged over the USB cable rather than replaced. Strips are specific to the meter family, which is why the included strips matter more than any generic supply.
