IT'S JUST RIGHT... (2004-01-24)
The One Touch Ultra Fast Draw Test Strips work perfectly.

I have the One Touch Ultra meter. The strips slide into the meter so easily every time. The stripe size is approximately 1/4 inch wide and 1 1/4 inch long. They appear to be made out of plastic, so you do have to use one whole test strip for each test. I say that because you cannot cut them in half, nor can you reuse them again. One end has a white and black striped end which you slide into the meter. The other end has an approximate 1/8th by 1/4 inch clear plastic area. This is where you would see the blood being tested.

When I have tested, the lancet just barely has to prick my finger. I find it amazing that just the smallest drop of blood is needed to get a reading. Once the small drop of blood is showing, all I have to do is touch the top of the test strip to the droplet and immediately the blood is drawn along into the plastic clear area. Drawing the blood takes only a second and the One Touch Ultra gives me the results in 5 seconds.

The One Touch Ultra Fast Draw Strips are just that!
