G7 Fun

Type 1 & LADA
1

I’ve used 6 - G7 Sensors
3 - No Issue
1 - Sensor Failure Error after warm up completed.
1 - The Sensor wire didn’t get inserted correctly so it failed after warm up.
1 - Mobile app was “Searching for Sensor” and couldn’t find sensor. Tried starting sensor through my Tandem pump, same result. Restarted phone and tried starting sensor, same result.

Other than that, no issues :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Also getting good at filling out this form. Thanks @ClaudnDaye!

My first G7 woke me up three nights out of ten by dropping suddenly below the alarm threshold, then popping back up.

Hope the next one is better. I have learned to eat a graham cracker when it wakes me up to prevent it happening again and again. Don’t want to disable my going low alarm because I will forget to enable it again in the morning.

That is frustrating. I think G7 is more sensitive to compression lows than G6. I really never had an issue with G6.

This one was not a compression low. It was just extreme jitter. Here is another shot that was more extreme. Same sensor.

Yikes, that would also be frustrating.

If anyone would want to swap 6 months of their G6 stock for 6 months of my G7 stock, please PM me.
