Review on ⏰ Norpro Black Digital Clip-On Timer for Cooking, 99 Minutes by Tina Brooks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am type 1 diabetic and use timers to know if I have recently taken insulin.

I have type 1 diabetes. I have to inject insulin from two separate insulin pens at least four times a day. There are times when I take out my pen but can't remember later if I was actually taking insulin when I took out the pen or if I chose to wait until I prepared a meal or not I took insulin without really thinking about it one way. Now I reset the knob as soon as I take it out so it shows 00:00 but doesn't work. When I take insulin I start the timer to look at the pen and when it says 00:00 I know I haven't taken any insulin. If he reads something else, I know what I have. I never put a pen back in my pocket without making sure it's not 12:00 AM.

Pros
  • Black plastic case
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
