Aquapac Waterproof Insulin Pump Case Small, Made in The UK, 3 Sizes, Belt, Travel Essential, 5 Year Warranty, Eco Friendly, Diabetic, Watersports

Purchased this Aquapac to go on a day-long white-water rafting trip. I'm an active, Type 1 diabetic and have worn an insulin pump for about 10 years. On previous rafting trips, I've removed my pump rather than risk water damage. Thanks to the Aquapac, I was able to keep the pump on for the entire day - making for a healthier and happier trip.Found it very easy to place the pump in the pack and seal. There is a small notch for the tubing to feed through. The clear panel on the front allowed me to see the screen and use the buttons without having to open the sealed pack. After a day of rafting, which included jumping from rocks into the river and some swimming, there was only light condensation on the inside of the pack. The adjustable belt allowed me to wear the device comfortably and concealed.Would recommend testing out the set up / sealing procedure prior to going near the water. The fasteners move in a couple different directions and you want to be sure you know how to get the seal right!Highly recommend this product to any insulin pump user looking to enjoy time around the water.

I love this thing!!! I was tired of having to take off my pump and swim/snorkel for an hour (if I'm lucky) and have to end the fun early just to hook back up. Not fun. But then, enter this wonderful device and all my hopes and dreams are met. This works wonderfully and it's minimalist design is not too bulky and easy to hide under a Tankini top or a pair of shorts. I tested this out on a recent family vacation to Hawaii and I wore it all day long, to multiple beaches and swimming pools, and not one drop of water disturbed my pump. It's so wonderful to be able to play in the water all day with my kids. Again, I LOVE THIS!!!

The product was sold as waterproof, but the instructions said it's waterproof for 8 - 10 seconds. Not what I needed at all. Also, it was sold as being for a Tandem T-Slim insulin pump, but the item that arrived was packaged as a microphone case.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Delivered as advertised

I purchased this case to protect my wife's Medtronic 630G insulin pump while on an overseas beach vacation. Since we were far away from home and any possibility of repair or replacement of the pump, I wanted extra protection. The case performed well for incidental splashing and to protect from getting sand and salt on the device. There were a few instances where the case was very briefly submerged or splashed heavily and there was no leakage. We did not test completely submerging the pump in the case for any length of time, not wanting to take a chance on ruining our vacation. The flow of insulin was not affected by the use of the case. The screen was completely visible, and buttons were accessible through the case. This product definitely performed as advertised, was comfortable to wear around beach and pool, and gave peace of mind that extra protection was being given to the pump.The only issues we had were around getting the device in and out of the case. The fit is very tight around the pump, and got progressively more difficult to insert and remove over the course of the vacation. By the end of the week, I had to stretch the plastic to move the pump and was afraid I might damage it and leave the pump vulnerable. You will need to remove the belt clip to get the pump in at all. For our next trip, I think I will get the one of the larger wire-through cases from Aquapac.The case closure is very well designed and takes little force to close. The material the case is made of is far tougher than those advertised for cell phones, and gave us confidence in its protection. We feel it was well worth the price. I would definitely buy another waterproof case from Aquapac to protect critical, sensitive electronic devices.

Updated...2nd time I used this in another small waterpark the aquapac did take on some water and was not 100% dry as my first experience. Thankfully my pump didn't quit on me.Original: Extremely happy with this! Bought it for a T-slim pump for a trip at Wisconsin Dells and took it on all the water slides and pools....not a drop of water got into the case or on my pump. I did use the belt and hid everything under my bathing suit with no problem. The excess part of the belt did fall out several times but wasn't an issue. I also had to take the outer case off my pump so it wasn't too snug. I've had a pump since 2004 and this is the 1st time I haven't had to stop what I was doing and reattach my pump to keep my sugars from spiking to high, I left it on with no problems.

Was a bit skeptical at first, but in the end I was very pleased. I had shied away from activities in the water ever since I became a diabetic. However, I spent 3-4 hours on the water in a kayak and did not have any issues. It was very easy to put my pump in this case and adjust to fit. Sat under my life vest without any issues. I put a paper towel in the case with the pump to absorb any condensation. When I removed the pump and paper towel, both were dry. I did not submerge it, so I can't say if it would have kept the water out. If you want to get back into water activities as a diabetic, this is worth the expense.

I would give this case a 5 but it was difficult to get the pump in, tight fit. I have tandem tslim x2. And almost impossible to get it out after. The plastic grips the pump and it sticks like glue. I don't know what other people do to get it in and out. For such an expensive item I think that the fit should be better. I find it hard to believe that a medtronic pump would fit in here. It did keep my pump dry and I was able to access the controls but if I could I would return it simply because of the fit.
