I change mine after 6 weeks, but did get 8 before they went low doing 8 to 10
tests per day.
Do you use Lithium ones which give best life?

Hi
Can anyone tell me if they have better battery life than me? I'm using Accu
Chek aviva/spirit combo. I only get around two weeks battery life in the
handset
and wondered if this is normal.
