I have a relion and a verio both human. Just tested with both the relion reads 196, the verio reads 218? Is that normal? I did a control check in them both before I did. I am running out of relion strips but have verio strips. ??
 
Yes... unfortunately, glucometers are "allowed" to be off by as much as 20%, so those two readings are essentially equivalent. I am not sure if you can even expect the meters to be off in the same direction each time (i.e., verio higher than relion), or if it's just random error.
 
Well I am noting the lower number because she deserves it, but will be having to use the others for a few days.

Sounds fair-- love those blues! :cool:

Remember, if you are following TR, those blues on the 4.0U mean that you hold this dose for slightly longer, 8-10 cycles rather than 6, to see what she can do with it.
 
You could test the same drop of blood with the same meter and get variances like that. Normal.
