It's large screen display gives very clear readings and the meter takes just 5 seconds to give a result.

The Ascensia™ MICROFILL™ test strips are easy to handle, fully touchable and sip-in the exact amount of sample. Each strip automatically codes the meter when inserted and a large memory automatically stores up to 480 test results showing dates and times

The Vaculance Lancing device - The alternative to finger pricking
An alternative choice for comfort and convenience of blood sampling. The Vaculance allows you to take blood from sites other than your finger tips, e.g. thighs, arms and the sides of the hands. Select your personal choice of 4 lancing depths to obtain just the right amount of blood you need. Its unique vacuum action draws blood gently to the skin's surface.  It lets you minimise discomfort by allowing you to choose lancing sites less painful than your fingertips. Should only be used when testing with 
a meter which requires only a very small amount of blood.    
  

The Microlet

!

The Microlet Adjustable Lancing Device helps to reduce the pain associated with pricking the fingers by being fully adjustable. Different types of skin require different lancing depths in order to obtain a   
sufficient blood sample. Rotating the end cap varies the depth the needle punctures the skin. The unique device cuts down on rebound and so reduces pain .
