Will be trying this tomorrow when I change my pod - will update you later. Will be in the afternoon tomorrow, I’ll be careful to do it properly! 🙂

I’m not well-enough informed on these technicalities. I wish I was so I could help you out!

Over a year later and I’m curious, did the slow fill trick actually end up working out for you in the long run?

@chabaj It still works for me, I get two beeps from each pod at between 60 and 75 units (by my pen measurements) when fill rate of ≈1-3 units per second! Using a syringe is more difficult based on the size (using the Insulet provided injector takes time and effort to inject slowly, even then it’s questionable, but it is the least cost to the user).
