I have my eye on the new Accu-Chek Combo which seems as it may be an upgraded version with a cartridge capacity of 310 ML which would hopefully give me three days plus. The remote has a color interface which looks appealing as well. https://www.accu-chek.co.uk/gb/products/insulinpumps/index.html

I would be interested to learn how others find the daily use of this new pump as I may migrate to it if it proves reliable in day to day use. It's from the UK so perhaps some T1's from England and Europe may have experience with it before it arrives in North America.

Tandem requires a letter from your physician stating why the pump is not right for you.

Dave..Florian: Tandem has changed their return policy due to comments from potential users. I just spoke with them Thursday.

Can anyone tell me about what medicare pays for the Animas pump system?

Comment by E-J Ohler on September 26, 2012 at 4:28pm

I love the real waterproof 2020 or now Ping but I'm still waiting for the Vibe see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgtuoFVKFds as my Seven+ from Dexcom isn't water proof. I personally do not see the Ping advantage but the pump is great. I still feel beats any other one on the market after 7 years of use. great service too

Dave, I believe that Tandem has changed their no return policy. I will check it out. I will be looking at the Roche Combo System, the Omnipod, and the Cellnovo system when it is available in the USA.

Hi Animas users,
I just got a letter from Animas reminding me that the warranty on my pump(PING)has run out. Before I do that I'm going to take a good look at other pumps that are in the market and especially some of the new ones that will be coming to the market very soon.
One pump that really looks good is the Tandem tslim.
I am having a hard time reading the small black text on the PING LCD screen. When will Animas start using the pump screen on the remote.

That's a good rule, NorCal. After my mishap with waiting too long that's what I've started doing as well...more or less anyway!

Comment by NorCal T1 on August 20, 2012 at 7:29pm

My rule of thumb is to order when you open your last box. That way you'll have about a month +/- to work it out if there are any problems. Wishing you better luck in the morning.
