I think my GMC 6 speed auto transmission uses it.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

I had a sports doctor put me on one some years ago, don't know which model but a Dexcom product. Installing the probe felt like running a nail into my arm but I hear the newer generations can hardly be felt.
It returned good, useful data for dialing nutrition. They seem to have gotten popular with the low carb crowd lately, for similar purpose.

My daughter is still clinging bitterly to her G4’s.
I think she uses it to call BS on her G6 when she thinks the latter is lying to her.

I had the Libre-link and my Dr changed me over to the Dexcom touting it as the latest and greatest. I put up with it for two weeks and went back to the Link.
I could wish a lot of things on my worst enemy but neuropathy ain't one of them.

How consistant and accurate is the G-7 and how is the server setup, can it reconnect on a dropped connection and start where it left off ar does the server reset the account data like the Lebre system?

Been wearing one for about a year now , it works ok,easy to put on keeps track of the blood sugar accurately, only need to check with the finger gizmo when you put a new one on.the sensor will walk you thru the setup . The biggest pain in the ass is that it beeps whenever you get out of range,so I have to keep it within about15 feet or so ,putt my shirt pocket or beside me at bedtime. High sugar and beep, beep,beep low sugar more beep beep beep . The arm thing lasts about 2weeks then beep time to put a new spot on .makes my dr. Happy ,she can just plug in to her computer and see what a bad boy I have been.
