What is a Nerdy Glucose Meter?
A nerdy glucose meter must allow for "alternate testing locations". This means no finger pricks. Nerds need their finger tips pain free to keyboard and swipe.
A nerdy meter must allow for data transfer to a computer or website for in-depth analysis and review. How a meter connects to a computer is also important.
The last part is optional based on the prior features, but it is really nice when a meter can record data other than date and time of a glucose reading.
Testing Procedures:
All meters are tested with at least 25 test strips, most many more. All meters are tested by a diabetic in the daily routine of their normal testing regiment.
