Guest guest Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 The Solo V2 by Biosense is an okay meter. The strips are thinner and it is slightly harder to detect which way to insert the strip, and the memory only announces the date, and not the time. There is no repeat button, but accessing the memory and listening to the first reading is the equivalent. Ask your provider, they should carry it. If you are interested and they can't provide it, let me know. Dave " ...In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Sometimes it will out of range, so we do it over and it is fine. Of course the amount of blood makes the difference sometimes. But other times I might do a BS 3 times because I am quite sure the numbers don't make sense. We have 2 meters and we have taken them back to where we got them and they keep saying they are find. Oh, well we will keep trying. Thanks, Good meter wanted We now have 2 Prodigy meters and cannot count on how dependable they are.
