I've experienced and still are I use a freestyle freedom lite with another metre which I cross check readings at work etc.
The freestyle has a tendency to suffer an intrusion of moisture under the screen even when I don't work in a over moist atmosphere this leads to two errors on the metre
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
