How much does it cost? I am G5 but not sure whether I want to switch yet Transmitter Cost vs. G5 Sensor Cost vs G5 Receiver Cost vs G5 Anyone willing to share so I can make a better decision? Thanks! ---

Looking forward to this information too. Hopefully same as G5, but I have been wrong on every count from my hopes lately. So I will defer to actual information. ---

I’m curious to hear confirmation on how long the G6 transmitter lasts, and whether sensors can be restarted. That will make a big difference in actual cost. I have used G4 transmitters for at least 11-16 months, whereas the G5 transmitter has a countdown for usage, then ends. (Unless you use other means.). So I’m likely to stay on G4, as I believe it will remain the lowest cost. But will be great to have others feedback on the G6.
