Hi Tom, thank you so much for your review, I am living in China, would you be able to share with me the contact for Miao Miao 3 so that I can purchase directly. Thanks
Should i go with blucon or miao miao 1 ?
I've been fighting with the BluCon 2 for the L2 censors. So far it has not been a great experience with batteries dying very quickly. It started with every 5-6 days, and I'm now at changing batteries every 12 hours.
I wish the blucon 2 didn't drop signal as often 🙁
I bought miaomiao 3 and now its 7 weeks they didn’t deliver it to me and when i asked them for refund they refunded me (after many emails)164$ while I payed 164€ !
This is a bullshit company 🤦🏻♂️
Great comparison, thank you, but one thing I would add: DON’T make the mistake I made when choosing the Nightrider. If you decide on the Nightrider because of the direct link to Apple Watch then be aware that this is very limited. It won’t work without a network connection – No good to me as a kite surfer and sailor and mountain bike rider who is often not getting network connection. Also it won’t work at all with a Series 4 Watch, which I have, or lower. I’ve gone back to simply using the high and low alarms going directly from my libre 2 to my iPhone (in an Aquapac in my wetsuit) sending the signal to my Apple Watch. Works fine in warning me to take action as and when necessary. 😀👍
I tried all the tree transmitter and had skin rashes with Bubble and MiaoMiao. Blucon is very suitable as it doesn't touch my skin and have more features than Bubble and Miaomiao
Did the look change? Your video looks different from the product on the site to order. Thank you
I had a horrible experience with Blucon. I had to send it back to their lab… it was lost on the way back.
Bought MM instead and I am a happy camper. Steady and reliable. Ever since, I am recommending MM to type1 community in my country (should have requested commission for that :).
Btw, I use MM1. I used Blucon first generation in the past.
I do caliberate frequently.
No issues with battery life or connection (i have connection issues twice a year with MM1, as oppose to at least once a week with Blucon in its fitst generation).
I bought a Miaomiao 2 but was surprised that the battery only lasts 24 hours and the customer service did not reply to my complaint. I have to remove it daily to charge it which is not only inconvenient but also affects my libre sensor integrity which is not able to withstand daily manipulation……
has anyone else had issues with blucon getting a reading? i just started a new one with my libre 2 and it says connected however every time it tries to do a reading it says 'patch read error' i wrote to Ambrosia and they said it doesn't work with the Libre 2 which isn't true from everything i've read online.
omg what a hero
Great review, thanks very much. I'm about to get my first Libre so this has really helped.
Hi Tom, Southern California here, I Have been type2 for 20 years now and in doing research on DEXCON and FreeStyle Libre I found your channel.I had no idea there was a third party transmitter for the Libe2.I am wearing my 1st CGM Libre2 and I LOVE it. It is a game changer in helping me manage my type2I am a new Subscriber THANK YOU!
Bubbble is finished Apple killed DiaBox
Bless u Bless u
Type One Talks is one of the best channels ever– the information is HONEST & Modest= NO HYPE!!!! personally as a pre not yet type2 but close– i need a CGM– i hate needles- BUT the CONVIENCE is the BIG ISSUE– i believe TRENDS are for more important than numbers!!!! i am holding out & hoping the new 2021 Apple Watch or better Android will be the best solution– of course ALL these companies are GREEDY in terms of JACKING THE PRICE– so i must be careful!!!!!!!
Wow awesome video
can you give a link for the circular bandages to keep from knocking the libre off? I have been searching on amazon and I cannot find any. I found like a single circular bandage for $12 US dollars which is ridiculous
I live in the USA and cannot select adult on the miao miao website. If I can get it for adultin USA must I buy the reader and the transmitter and hold … etc or just the transmitter?
