10 Day Sensor

The sensor lasted its 10 days! I’m so happy! There were a few glitches/alarms/no readings a few times, but kept coming back each time.

When it was time to change the sensor after 7 pm, I waited for the sensor to stop on its own after buzzing. I waited 15 minutes and then inserted the new sensor. The new sensor is in the warm up period, now. We’ll see what happens soon later tonight before bedtime.

Watch this page for more updates.

Stay safe, happy and healthy.

Thank you, Sue.

Yes, I hope this new sensor can go the entire 10 days, too. This morning, the numbers were in the 100's before breakfast, so that's a good start. No alarms and no No Readings alert. That's the best way to start with a new sensor. :-)
