I purchased the blucon after watching this video and it is fantastic. I can't thank you enough for sharing this information and the various options. It has been such an improvement in how I monitor my glucose and over all health. You really made difference! I hope you continue to make these videos. BTW I have share your "Type One Talks" channel with a few friends. I think it is that good what you do!
Thank you for sharing and your kind words.
I've had lots of issues with my miaomiao2 and now it has finally stopped working. It has now been sent back to be replaced but I'm not feeling very hopeful about the next one being any better! I would love to give the bubble a shot as I'm a newly diagnosed T1 and the CGM had saved me from having to change career that I love and have spent many long years building up!
Thanks for all the great videos as its allowed a newly diagnosed to understand the market and what's available being so new to it 👍
Thanks for sharing your experience. You are in for the Bubble. And thank you so much for your kind words. They mean a lot!
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!
Thanks for sharing and for your kind words my friend!
I entered your last competition with the miao Miao 2 and sadly wasn’t lucky that time! I’m really keen to try ANY of these options because my control is so good during the day, but going high or low overnight ruins my time in range. Having the alerts would be a game changer!
I’ve done the most research around the Miao Miao, but would been keen for any of the options! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Thank you for participating. Good luck!
Nice video, I just received my NightRider 2 days back and it is working great on my phone and android watch. Thanks!!
Great to hear! Thanks Mark.
So glad to see a comparison review between all three! I was leaningmore towards the Bubble, but I'd actually love the Miaomiao 2 as being quite active the calibration function, better stickers and being able to charge whilst wearing seem more suitable for me. Fingers crossed!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and good luck!
I’m a recent subscriber and I’ve enjoyed the time and research you’ve done for your videos. They’ve become an invaluable resource for me when using the Freestyle Libre. I’ve consistently had issues with my sensor falling out long before the end of the 14 day period so I was ecstatic to find your tips and videos. After seeing this video I’m on the fence about which to choose. I think I’d like to try the Miao Miao 2 (or the Miao Miao 1). My endocrinologist and I both wanted a CGM for me but alas, health insurance kicked up a fight and we dropped the issue and went with the Libre.
TiAisha Mosby i agree as well. He does his research.
And i am grateful for that.
Thank you for your kind words my friend! You are in and I wish you good luck!
Thank you! I try!:) Have a great day!
About 3 weeks ago I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Then I got the Libre 2, which is an enormous relief for life and also brings a bit of quality of life with it. A few days ago I became aware of the Ambrosia Blucon and I have to say that I like it very much. If I could choose between these 3 sensors I would take the Blucon.
Thanks for sharing your experience! Take care.
My experience with Blucon Nightrider has been great. My mother has been using it for past few months and she is able to manage her glucose level and diet easily. Their food insights option is extremely helpful. I can share my reading with my 5 loved ones.
Nightrider BluCon is not my favorite but thanks for sharing.
Hi Tom. Very informative video. Thank you. Having had a sensor knocked off, I immediately thought the Bluecon looked too tall. I’ve had the Libre 1 since late July after 30 years of fingerpricks to relishing getting my fingertips back! Out of the other two, I’d be hard pressed to chose between them so if I was lucky enough to be a winner I’d graciously accept either. Having taken on board your advice about pasta, this is an area I still struggle with so the CGM would be an added weapon in my quest to conquer it!
Thanks again for your brilliant channel and keep up the great work.
Thank you do much for your kind words and sharing your experience my friend. This means a lot! Wishing you all the best!
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. 😀👍
Hello Tom, I've been Type 1 for nearly 45 years and the Libre Sensor was the first game changer for me and I have been using it for only 6 months and it is 100% self funded. I have seen your video about the Libre Sensor 3 but here in Australia we don't even have the Libre Sensor 2 yet. I feel that the Miao Miao 2 would be extremely beneficial to my Health Care Plan and even if I an not successful with the Competition, I think that I will still purchase one as the features of it suit my current lifestyle to a tee. Thanks for a great video and for your time and effort that you put in to them! Garry
Hi Garry. Thank you so much for your feedback and sharing your experience from Australia. Wishing you all the best! Stay safe!
Awesome review all three transmitters. Nice to have a review of all three in one video. I would love to try a bubble transmitter. Thanks for all your help in the T1D community!
You are very welcome! Good luck!
Thank you so much for this, I've been really struggling to choose which device I should be saving for. It's a large amount of money for me and so the pressure to pick "the right one" is huge. The information that you've shared is clear, concise and clearly well thought through. Certainly lots to think about!
I would love to enter the competition for the chance to win any of these! I'm asking my friends and family for money for Christmas so I can buy one. I have a few months left to decide which one I want but this video has been a huge help. Thanks for taking the time to do this xx
Hi Sarah. Thank you so much for your kind words. Hope you will chose the right one! Wishing you all the best!
Amazing channel and great content. I just picked up my libre today and just looking into purchasing a cgm addition. Your reviews and explanations are great. The MiaoMiao2 seems to be the best option for me. Thanks for the geat advice, tips and tricks.
Welcome to the Libre team! And thank you so much for all the compliments! You are in for MM2. Stay tuned because the results of the giveaway are coming up really soon. Wishing you a great weekend and all the best with Libre!
Tom after listening and reading many comments regarding 3rd party transmitters I would go for the MM2. After being diabetic for over 10 years with little to no control the freestyle libre has got my HBA1C down from 89 to 55 over the last 9 months. Having the continuous glucose levels at hand on my phone and watch would hopefully get me even tighter control. Thanks for all your videos and the continued information they provide.
Hi Neil. Thank you so much for your kind words. I am glad I can help and congrats on your improved HbA1c. Great job! Take care!
My mom had been a type 2 diabetic for more than 2 decades, but recently, it had been a challenge to keep her fluctuating sugar in check. Her sugar drops dangerously low sometimes in the early morning, then swings to high after eating her meals. It has been a constant struggle to manage her sugar throughout the day. Having a Freestyle Libre has changed her life, but having an alarm to alert us when the sugar goes too high or too low would definitely be a life saver.
Appreciate the comparison video, we'd love to have the MiaoMiao 2 please! Thank you for the hard work you put in on all your videos. Looking forward for more great content.
Liked, subscribed, and shared ❤️
Thank you! Good luck!
@@TypeOneTalks Thanks Tom! 😊
The video explained the differences of these transmitters very well. I was fortunate to get a Miao Miao 2 from you and I have a very good experience with it. The customer service executives were very helpful too.
Thank you for your videos. 😊 Schöne Grüsse an die Schweiz 😊
Thank you for commenting my friend. Hope all is well!
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
Thanks for a comprehensive and transparent review. I would want the one leftover - the Nightrider
You are most welcome! Good luck!
I'm also using the Nightrider with my Libre pro sensor and quite happy. We have a group of 500 diabetics and majority of the people are using Nightrider.
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).
Hello, out from what i have seen, the bluecon waterproof, might be the best option for me :)
Also, i love your videos, gives a lot of information, that people can use.
Maybe speak a little more around the adhesive on the different devices, have they become better over time?
Are most of them somewhat waterproof? or just splash proof?
Thanks for your feedback! I think I explain the waterproof/water-resistant topic in one of my other videos where I review the individual transmitters. They are water resistant (IP 67). Wishing you a great day!
Hi I am using blucon and its working great for me and I dont have to worry about pricking myself everytime and easy to share all information with my doc

Mow mow one thankyou clara hall 12278 Emerson Avenue Parkersburg wv 26104
So so happy
You have saved my life!!! I watched your you tube video about Libre sensor placement as the adhesive on my Omnipod has brought me out in a rash. So I took your advice and tried under my arm. (I can only use my right arm for pods and sensors due to having a mastectomy and removal of lymph nodes on my left side earlier this year) I fought so hard to get a libre with my diabetic team, as I thought the libre was a CGM. So in summer I was in a car accident, and the stress from all that has affected my skin as I am now allergic to the adhesive. However, placement under my arm has worked, as my skin under there is perfect. Your you tube videos have been very helpful and I will continue to listen to them all. So, if I get selected I would love to try the Miao Miao 2 or the dark night one in fact any really Thank you for your videos
Hi Emma. Thank you so so much for sharing your experience and your kind feedback. I'm very happy that you find my videos useful. You're in for MM2. Good luck!
@@TypeOneTalks thank you so much 🤞🏻🤞🏻💪🏼👌🏻
@@emzlou2098 You’re welcome!
Thank you for your help in taking better care of my health I was so frightened when started out so thank you
Your kind words mean a lot to me. I am glad that I could help. Wishing you all the best Clara!
Great review, thanks very much. I'm about to get my first Libre so this has really helped.
Thank you so much Willa! Wishing you all the best!
As always grate talk Tom.
We are using bubble and you are right the stickers are not the best but I can't complain this small device is really life safer... good battery life and the alarms of low and highs glucose giving us much beater control.
This is only because you my friend ... you are let us won this device last time Thank you.
Keep going what you doing.
Respect to you.
Thanks for sharing your experience Pavel! And thank you so much for your kind words. Means a lot to me!
Hi,
I use blucon and to attach it on free style libre I use velcro like
lozenge size 20mm (tried 16mm one from velcro but was too small, 25mm works and stick strongly)
It did no made the Libre to fall down and and I can do what I want, it does not fall.
You can even detach the blucon from libre if you need and put it again, I am not using waterproof one, just take care when doing it.
Thanks for sharing your experience. I am glad the set up works well for you! Take care!
Thank you! Been trying to decide which one is best for me for months, that said I would be interested in MM2 💓
Thanks for participating! Good luck!
I stumbled across this channel as I'm trying to find the best solution with an Android phone / smartwatch and found it extremely helpful. One question that I can't seem to find the answer to is how do you find it charging and managing so many devices including replacing the sensor every 14 days, recharging the battery, phone, and smartwatch. I would love to try out the Miao Miao 2 if I'm selected thanks!
I manage somehow. Three charges next to by bed all the time:) I have to say it's annoying at times but I think I got used to it. My hope is the technology will keep improving and it will become easier to charge all these gadgets wirelessly. Wishing you all the best!
Thanks for your review! I have a question for the Tomato app (or any other iPhone applicable apps for that matter): do you need to have WiFi or cellular on for it to work? Or only Bluetooth? Does it work without any of these too? On Airplane mode? Cheers!
Hi Sam. You only need Bluetooth. So it will work even in the airplane mode (just need to have Bluetooth on. Hope this helps. Have a great day!
EXCELLENT AND VERY THOROUGHLY EXPLANATION...THE BEST & DETAILED COMPARISON.... THANKS TOM !...and Cheers from Portugal 🇵🇹
Glad you enjoyed it! Your feedback is very important and much appreciated. I am glad we have viewers like you who always challenge us to put hard work into our videos! All the best to Portugal. Stay safe my friend!
Thanks for the interesting video. I've been using miao miao 1 for nearly a year now with Libre 1 and found it to be very good. Do you know if the miao miao 1 can be used with libre 2?
It seems the response is not as easy as I thought. I am not 100% sure but if the information I collected is correct MM1 works with Libre 2 if you use the Tomato app except for the US. I'd kindly ask others to correct me if I am wrong as I have this info second hand and did not test MM1 myself yet... Thank you!
@@TypeOneTalks thank you, look forward to hearing from anyone else who has an additional information
@@tomwood4389 You're welcome!
Have you always had great control? Or have you developed complications?
When I first tried MiaoMiao 2, it (or something else) killed my Libre sensor a week after application. As I was experimenting with this new device I had continued scanning my Libre regularly to compare numbers with the MiaoMiao and I wonder if that is what caused my Libre to expire so quickly. Since then I have only scanned the Libre minimally when using the MM2 and everything has been fine. I do find sometimes the MM2 can come unstuck from my skin and I have to tape it on to keep it attached. Last week while out shopping the MM2 and Libre completely lost its anchor after 2 days (it hurt a little too!) and stopped sending info to my phone so I had to remove them and replace the Libre sensor. Apart from these incidents I’m really impressed with both devices. I just have to get a grip on how to use them effectively. Tom, thx again for yet another excellent video x
Thank you for sharing your experience and also you kind words. I am glad you liked the video:) All the best!
Hey tom thanks for these awesome videos their so comprehensive and highly awesome !! I’d love to try the MiaoMiao2. Keep up the awesome videos Tom.
You are so welcome. Thank you for your kind words! MM2 it is.
Hello, Tom
Thanks for your video. The video helped me a lot.
I'm a Korean, but there is no such comparison review information in Korea, so I looked for your video.
Your video has also been shared several times in the Korean SNS community.
Thank you again for your efforts.
And if I can get Transmitter, I would like to get Bubble.
Have a great day !
Thank you so much for your kind words. I am signing you up for the Bubble! Greetings to Korea and all the best!
I am not looking to win anything. I will say that Ifind your video extremely useful. No nonsense and no hype about any of the 3 products. I used to use Miaomiao V1 and found it a little lacking in functionality as I had repeated connectivity issues with it. Miaomiao 2 is far better but the battery life let's it down. I got around this by buying.a powerbank from Amazon and charging the Miaomiao 2 while still.attached to my sensor. I typically get about 10 days charge from my transmitter. I must confess that while I do really like the look of the Bubble, having the charging point on the reverse side of it tends to put me off it.
Thank you so much for your kind words and sharing your experience Goeff. This means a lot!
I am using Blucon and had tried for Miao miao, I am more comfortable with blucon because it's reliable.
I couldn't say enough to praise the customer service of Bubble enough. My first Bubble died at 10: 30 one Monday night. I left a message on facebook for Bubble so they would get it first thing in the morning. Bubblan got straight back to me and really tried to help me sort the problem out...he couldn't do it. Within a week or so I had a new one. I was really impressed.
Thanks for sharing your experience! Great to hear you were happy and your issue got resolved so fast! Take care!
Hi Tom, I'm the dad of a 10 year old girl who became Type 1 diabetic in February 2020.
I tried to make a nightscout account, but the guides on the net are a bit old, (even the nightscout site is not updated) and in the meantime, something has changed in the procedure. In addition, the operating system of the iphone has been updated to iOS 14; i can't even sign the apple certificate.
Would you have the will to make a nightscout (and xdrip, spike etc) installation guide updated to September 2020 minimum?
My daughter uses freestyle libre 1 with miaomiao2 and I have subscribed to the
premium package to have monitoring when she is at school and we have apple devices in the family ( applewatch for the girl too)
We managed to get an HbA1c of 6.3 and after seeing your video, my next target is 6! 👍
Thanks for all your videos, really useful.
Sergio
PS: Do you know if bubble has a remote monitoring service, like Tomato- miaomiao?
Hey Sergio! I bet you may have already been told this but as a student nurse who has been type 1 for over 30 years just a friendly reminder. As good as these monitoring systems like libre are your kid should also keep training for the old school blood glucose monitoring because anything can happen with the tech. Being able to double check the libre result and to be able to monitor blood glucose if the sensor fails are skills that should be well in order. Especially when you parents are not around. The sensor is also taking it's reading from the extracellular fluid in which the changes are trailing the blood glucose level about 10-15 minutes which means it might be too slow in a case of sudden blood glucose drop and a traditional blood test is in order. So even the alert might be too late in some case so knowing how you feel and acting accordingly is in order for any diabetic. HbA1c 6.3 mmol/mol is already pretty damn good for a kid that age and you are doing really good job. No need to push it too hard and it is good to give your kid as much autonomy in dealing with her own condition as early as possible. Good luck to you all and welcome to the Type-1 family! And if you have any diabetes questions I would be happy to help. 😊
@@Aquelll Hi Akwell, first of all thank you for your comment and sorry for replying so late. Your thought is the same as ours and also that of the doctor who is treating my daughter. She wanted that before using the technology, she learned how to do things manually, such as injections and also how to recognize hypo cases. Only later she used the sensor and now the child is thinking to putting on the insulin pump, just to have the possibility to correct the hyper with fractions of 5/100 units of insulin.
But I would like to ask you just for clarification: why do you say we should not push too hard to try to get even lower Hba1c?
Wouldn't it be even better, if the child is agree, to have the omnipod, to improve Hba1c?
Thank you so much for your availability and I will certainly take advantage of your kindness to ask you more questions about diabetes.
I discovered a beautiful Type-1 community, and you are one of those beautiful people who are part of it!
Thanks, thanks and thanks again
Sergio and Cecilia
😘
@@sergioferrara8831 Hey Sergio. What I meant by not pushing too hard that sometimes parents tend to start micromanaging their childrens diabetes all the time with constant non-stop supervision stressing themselves and the child out. I mean that don't stress if the results are not always perfect. Of course lower HbA1c is always better but if it is not always perfect don't stress it too much. Especially with growing children the treatment needs constant readjusting when they are growing and even more when the hormones kick in at puberty. Meaning try to aim for good results but if they are not always so don't stress yourself and your child out. That is what I meant by it. Especially now that it is a new thing for the family there is a shitton of new info and it is easy to start overly stressing about it all. 😊
Thanks for sharing your insights! Much appreciated!
Hi Sergio. Sorry for my late response. I think I responded to you under a different video. Hope you will see my response there:)
Do you have a discount code for Bubble? I am in Italy and would like to order today if possible, thanks!
Thank you! Excellent! I am a 48 year insulin dependent diabetic and doing well. I would love to try the bubble. Thank you!
Hi Julie. Thank you for sharing your story. I added you on the list for Bubble. Good luck!
Dear Julie! Congratulations! You have won the Bubble. Please watch my video here where I announced you as the winner to find out how to receive your Bubble. All the best! th-cam.com/video/4IlrupIRUxY/w-d-xo.html
Awesome video (as usual). If I win I'd like to try Bubble or miaomiao 2. Thanks again for all you do.
Thank you! Wishing you best of luck!
Je pense que les 3 sont supers mais j’aime bien la pile qu’on peut changer au lieu de recharger (Ambrosia)😃
Noted. You are in for the BluCon. Stay safe!
I could use the bubble.
Hi Tom, I think I would go for the Miao Miao as I'm not very techie.
Thanks for watching and good luck!
Just got mia mao 2 and it’s working very well but the battery lasted for 10 days . The cable is not long enough for me to charge while it’s applied.How do u do it ? When i calibrated the sensor it had awesome accurate reading.i cant wait for the sensor extension trial video.thank you for your valuable info
Small USB power bank in my pocket or extension usb could help.
@@TypeOneTalks good idea .I will definitely look into that .
Thanks for the videos, they are great and informative. I am new to sensors and would love to try the Bubble. I think it will work best for me. Thanks a million!
Hi Nadia. Thanks for watching! You are so welcome! You are in for the Bubble. Stay tuned for the results in early November and take care!
I tried all the three transmitters but my last choice is Blucon as I can get readings on my Apple watch without phone also I can share my readings with 5 caregivers remotely
Really useful video, still a bit undecided but I do a lot of exercise so the Miao Miao 2 looks good for me!
Even if I don't win the information has been really good! Thanks Tom
Glad it was helpful Josh! I appreciate your kind words. Wishing you all the best and you are in for MM2!
My miao miao 2 ended up in the washing machine, we took it apart got the batteries cleaned and it works, but it's not waterproof anymore. I could really use a new miao miao 2 Thanks🥰
Sorry to hear that! You are in for MM2! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I would love to try the Bubble! My little boy is type 1 diabetic. The advances in technology are amazing. The Libre has made our lives easier but these attachments would be a huge game changer!
Thank you for being a positive voice in the T1D community and for having amazing giveaways!
Liked, shared, loved! 💙
Thank you so much for your kind words! This means a lot. You are in and I'm wishing you and your little boy all the best!
How can I use your discount link for a bubble in Australia? Like your videos and would like you to get some benefit.
Unfortunately, I do not have discount link for Bubble. Only for Miao Miao 1 or 2:(
Thanks for taking the time to do the research before putting this up. very well done. If you pick me I like the Miaomiao 2 please. I tried the Dexcom it was a horrible experience. Thanks for making these videos.
Thanks
Tim
You are most welcome. I am glad you like the videos. Take care!
I just discovered you and love your videos! I would love to have the Miao Miao 2!!
Welcome aboard! Good luck and thanks for watching!
@@TypeOneTalks I have had Type 2 for 25 years and don't know any hacks. I have the Libre 14 Day and my meter is always low by about 30 points. I'd love to be able to use the Miao Miao 2 to calibrate it and have it wake me and my wife. One morning recently, she work up to my groaning. She couldn't wake me up and had to call the paramedics. They gave me glucose and I recovered nicely. What a wakeup call!!
What a great video! After recently receiving my freestyle libre I have had some trouble being accurate with my blood testing, so the Miao Miao 2 sounds like it would be perfect for this!
Thank you so much Natalie. You are in for MM2. Have a great day!
@@TypeOneTalks thank you for all the info! It's great to see an honest opinion! Will keep fingers and toes crossed 🤞🏻
Have fix the inaccuracy with the freesyle libre? Because i got it yesterday and i have the same issue, please help me out
The bubble or Miao Miao for my 8 year old son would be fantastic. xxx
Thanks for watching and good luck! You are in!
do any of these extend the life of the US/freestyle libre 2??
Thanks for indepth comparison but for my kid I feel blucon will suit the best as its design as it fits on top of sensor so lesser chances of falling.
My 14 year old son has been type 1 over 11 years and I think from your (very detailed) description that miaoMiao2 would be the best one for him, we’d love to win one to try it!! I’m interested though to see if the bubble sticks better with the new stickers as it looks less likely to catch on things.
All the best to you and your son! Thanks for watching and you are in for MM2!
Hii my 5 year old is T1D , I want try Blucon
Thank you for your feedback. Good luck!
I think I would prefer the miao miao 1 because of the style 😊thank you for the video I didn't know much about these products they would be very helpful since freestyle 2 is not available around here yet!
You're so welcome! Wishing you all the best!
@@TypeOneTalks thank you 😌
Thanks for your video. In other video you mentioned that we have to leave the sensor hole free because is used to balance the temperture and humidity. Do you know how miaomiao sensor handle this? thxs
Yes, correct. The manufacturer says that the whole should not be covered. Still, personally, I did not have an issues while using a third party transmitter. Hope this helps!
Type One Talks thanks a lot for your answer, actually I’m using cavilon or skin tac wipe to reduce irritation in my skin but in both cases I experience skin problems even though we have being changing it at 7 days (not 14 days as recommended because of this problem) when I have to replace the sensor. I’m trying to figure out if this is because the daily temperature or the thirst party transmitter. It is my first season in summer to deal with it. I would really appreciate your advice. Thxs and congrats for your site.
I hope this is just what the Mama ordered. 81 years young I suffer when ever I saw her poke to draw blood so I helped her which I suffer twice as much when I did it for her. The free style was a god send but aways 120-200 units off. Were trying some of the location you suggested so far better results. Should we win the contest we would like a Bubble type. The reason is it looks like the only one thar doesn't cover the hole at the center of the Free Style sensor. You mention in a previous that this hole should not be instructed. Good advice so far. Thank for taking the time to help.

Thank you for watching and sharing your experience Mugen. Wishing you all the best!
I'd love the Miaomiao 2.
Thank you SO MUCH for this and all your videos.
As a T1D of many decades, I have never been able to afford a CGM.
I started eating very low carb over a year ago and have been using the Libre since it was available in the states.
I also manage a restaurant so I'm constantly on the move for sometimes 10+ hours per day. Having the ability to have a "CGM" or at least the capability of one would be a dream come true for me.
Thank you for your consideration!
I shared this video on Pinterest, Snapchat and Facebook.
Love it! Thank you for sharing! And I really appreciate your kind words! Means a lot! You are in for MM2:) Have a nice day!
Awsome review
Thanks for your time.
You are most welcome! Thanks for watching! Have a great day!
Thanks for this informative video. If I could choose between the 3 transmitters, I would prefer the MiaoMiao 2.
Glad it was helpful! You are in for MM2! Good luck and stay safe!
Hi, doesn't Miao Miao 2 create problems with the sensor, considering that it cover the little hole in the middle of libre? (in another video you told that this part shouldn't be covered)
Hi Marco. Thanks for your questions. I did not have an issue with MM2 in this respect but (for full transparency) the official recommendation from Abbott (the Libre manufacturer) is that the tiny whole in the middle of the sensor should not be covered.
Hi Tom. I found your channel searching for miaomiao, and loved it. I've been binge watching your videos. I would like to win a bubble one, thats the one I will probably buy someday. Keep up the good work!
I'm so happy to hear you "bench watched" my T1D videos:) Thanks so much for your kind words. You are in for the bubble! Good luck!
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.
The device is faulty you need to exchange it
Hi from Macedonia 🇲🇰 Excellent video. As newly diagnosed (February 2020, when corona hit my country) videos on your and similar channels really helped me! 💙
I would really like to have any of those transmitters. Since I live in restricted region and can't download libre app (so I can not scan with my phone), it would be great to have my readings on the phone.
Subscribed, liked, shared. I would preferre MM2.
Ciao! :)
Sorry to hear that Thanks for watching and good luck! You are in!
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
Do they all have the same water proof rating? I don't remember you touching on that. 👍
Yes they are all IP67
Tom you make some great videos and I am learning all the time as a T1D. The Libre Sensor (v1) has been a god send to my diabetes management in rural NZ even I have to fund it. I would if possible I think for me the MiaoMiao 2 would be the best fit for me due my paranonia of the device falling off. The MiaoMiao 2 seems the the best option without too much fuss. If I am lucky. could I put my name in the hat for the MiaoMiao 2 please.
Thank you for your kind words my friend. You are in for MM2! Good luck!
Maiomaio would be best. Thank you for all the info I'm a new libre user. I have type 2 and have real problems with lows. I've been fighting to get help since august. So far the libre is wonderful but I'm told I'll never get the Libre 2. Hard this would help with the liws while I sleep. Thank you gor your videos. Helped do much.
Thank you so much for your kind words! They mean a lot! I am glad Libre helped you fight those lows. Stay strong!
Tom, love your video as always and you give the good facts. I would love to get a MIAOMIAO2 or any really, I am currently working on training my puppy to be a diabetic assistants dog, hard work but will be amazing if she is able to help me.
Thank you for your kind words and sharing your story! Wow - must be a hard work to train the puppy. I hope you are enjoying it!
Very useful comparison , hope to get blucon night rider transmitter thnx alot
Thanks for watching! Best of luck
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
Great video! Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching my friend!
Hi having just lost an mm1to salt water would love to try a bubble
Noted:) You are in for the Bubble:) Good luck!
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?
As an endurance runner, the miao miao 2 sounds like it would be the sensor for me as I could also download the app to my Garmin watch
You are in for MM2! Thanks for watching and commenting! Take care!
I would love to try the Bubble
You are so welcome! Thank you for sharing and good luck!
@@TypeOneTalks thanks :-)
I like the bubble the best - it would be great for my young daughter, who got diagnosed a couple of years ago, when she was 8.
I signed you up for the Bubble. Wishing you and your daughter all the best. Stay strong!
Did the look change? Your video looks different from the product on the site to order. Thank you
Another question does the bubble feed the data to my provider through libre view?
Both MM and Bubble have a new version out now. I will be reviewing them soon.
No it doesn’t . You still need to scan to get the data into the official Libre environment.
Despite how these health products make our lives more easier, I'm wondering why they are more expensive if they are compared to other consumed advance tech products. It just a personal thought and I might be wrong.
I think I am going to buy a miao miao 1 because it is the most affordable but I would really like to win the miao miao 2. Thank you for explaining everything in an easy to understand way.
You are most welcome! I totally see your point with MM1. And you are in for MM2:) Btw I will be testing MM1 in the coming weeks as well. Stay tuned for that! Have a great day!
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!!!!!!!
Thank you so much my friend!
Hi there Thom. I love your videos they are so informative. I'm Type 2 and on a tight budget. I have a android phone and a libre 14day US. Since Miao Miao 1 and 2 do not yet work with libre 14 day US
I would love to have the bubble if I am a winner. I have been plagued with going hypo since the covid pandemic and need a devise with an alarm. Thank you for your videos. I am an advid subscriber.
Thank you for sharing your story! You are in for the Bubble! Good luck!
Thank you for sharing, doing endless research at the moment to choose which CGM to go for. Would love to win the Miao Miao two or the Bubble and have shared the video! I’m too clumsy and would definitely knock the Ambrosia off the door frames!!
Thanks for watching and good luck!
I use X-drip+ with a samsung s10+ telephone and a samsung watch active 2, and the app g-watch.
I can see my values on my watch.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
I like Libre2 with alarms. Do you know an iPhone app (app only) for it?
Thank you for your service
You are most welcome. In terms of the app it depends which country you are in. If LibreLink is available in your country I would go with that one. Unfortunately, it is still not available in the US. Hopefully soon... Take care!
@@TypeOneTalks Diabox can soon connect directly to libre 2
Great and insightful review. I would love to be considered for the miao miao 2 please.
Thanks so much! MM2 - you are in! Stay safe!
Very informative. Thank you. A bubble would be great for my little grand daughter.
You’re most welcome! You’re in! Wishing you and your daughter all the best!

I currently am using the Ambrosia BluCon, unfortunately it has connectivity issues. Customer support has been working with me, however a solution has not been forthcoming.
Thank you for your reviews, and keeping people updated with insights, for people on this diabetes journey.😊
I would like to try the Bubble.
Thank you for sharing your experience and so sorry BluCon did not work so well for you. I signed you up for the Bubble! Good luck my friend!
I had bubble and then switched to BluCon, good luck my friend
