Fit for purpose

4.0 out of 5 stars Compact & strips are cheap. Only 10 strips & lancets supplied though. Order more at the same time.

The cheapest option on Bolo when I looked (though I've since seen it even cheaper elsewhere) and it seems to be a good little meter. Easy to use, and doesn't require a large sample. Mine (bought July 2020) did come with a travel case.It's less brilliant value for money when you realise that the kit only gives you enough supplies for 10 tests, and it's going to cost you another £10 for 50 strips and a further £10 for 200 lancets. At that point, some of the more expensive options are actually better value as a starter kit. I haven't really compared the ongoing cost of supplies.(Edit: I have now compared the cost of supplies, and strips-wise, this is actually one of the cheapest to run meters available, with most others charging between 50% and 100% more per test strip. This seems to be the older version of the GlucoRX Nexus Mini, and the test strips are 50% dearer for that.)The PC link works, but the software looks dated, is not particularly well thought out, and requires .NET3.5 to be installed (which wasn't as easy as just following the regular instructions on my Windows 10 laptop and required some Googling and a registry change) as well as Crystal Reports runtimes. Connection requires an A to Mini B (not Micro B) USB cable. That connector has been obsolete for several years now, and it might take some digging to find an old cable that fits. You can get a graph out of the software, but possibly the most powerful feature is to export as CSV and then analyse your figures elsewhere.The meter itself has modes for 'AC' (before meal), 'PC' (after meal, typically taken 2 hours later) as well as a default mode, and the software will treat each category separately or show them all. The meter will show the last 450 readings, as well as averages over various time periods (7 through to 90 days) for each of the three categoriesAnnoyingly, there's no way to edit out bad readings or to add the 'AC' or 'PC' flag if you forgot to set it before testing, in either the meter's memory or the PC software. I've had one or two in the mid 2 range where I've only got a partial sample onto the strip, and a few high misreads (seemingly due to hand contamination.) it'd be nice to be able to remove them so they didn't affect my averages.
