Transmitter dropped

[gazhay]

Been using xdrip with my nothing 2 phone & xdrip for months (and before that with pixel phone)

Last night i lost transmitter signal, nothing out of the ordinary from time to time.

Woke up 9 hours later and been no readings since.

Seems bluetooth link was broken.
Couldn't get anything to reconnect. Tried collector restart but eventually changed the HW id of the transmitter and it asked to pair again.

Battery B is reading low after 63 days, and the repair seems to have ended my sensor 5 days early.

Q1. How should I have re-paired?
Q2. Sensor won't start again, assume its dead?
Q3. With battery B in the red (233) and issues is it even worth trying with a new sensor or should i just get a new transmitter?

Thanks

Follow these instructions to see how Voltage B has been changing over the past 9 days:

I'm not interested in a fight.
Incorrect information about xDrip or devices will be corrected in these forums because many can find the posts through search.
This is a forum. So, you can disagree as long as you keep it civil.

These forums were opened so that we can help xDrip users.
I asked for these forums to be opened for that reason.
I am here to make sure it does its job.

You don't have to accept what I have stated here.

You brought up the figure of 90 days. I stated the only significance of that figure was how long the warranty was valid.
I never meant whether Dexcom will honor it or not.

Yes, the color of the number of days shown in xDrip changes as the number increases. I made that change to xDrip as a warning to remind us to plan for ordering the next transmitter.
The color also changes to red when it reaches 100, which is when you cannot start a sensor any longer, hence the limit of 110 days if you start the last one when it shows 99.

You are more than welcome to do whatever you wish. No one is trying to convince you to do otherwise.
However, facts are facts.
The statement "a G6 transmitter only lasts 90" is not a fact, and will be corrected.

You don't have to agree with me.
If you can show me how you have established that transmitters only last 90 days, I will be grateful.

This shows my measurement results of some of my G6 transmitter battery voltages even after they stopped working:

This page contains different topics about Dexcom and how to use a Dexcom through xDrip: https://navid200.github.io/xDrip/docs/Dexcom_page.html
I will be more than happy to make corrections when needed. People point out errors and I correct them if they are wrong. Otherwise, we talk about it without making it personal. The enemy is diabetes, not you nor me. I don't have a fight with you and I don't want to have a fight with you.

This page presents my knowledge of G6 lifetime:
https://navid200.github.io/xDrip/docs/Transmitter-lifetime.html
It also shows the status page when I was on last day at day 109. Considering during the first day, it shows 0, 109 means 110 days.

I am happy to remove all my previous comments if you remove yours where you state they last 90 days.
It's your choice.

You seem fully capable of deleting my responses so I don't think you need me to do anything.

Again, you are actively attacking a user who simply stated that the dexcom lasted for 90 days in line with my only knowledge at the time - that being from dexcom the manufacturer and all the healthcare workers who have educated me on the transmitter.

I wasn't claiming they couldn't last longer (otherwise why would I have bothered to day I've never gotten 110 days).

Remove what you like, including your overreaction to thinking i was distributing some kind of authoritative fake news.

Please also consider reviewing your actions. It demeans open source to have such interactions based on what is clearly misunderstanding.

[Navid200]

That's OK. Misunderstandings happen. I'm sorry about my response offending you.
Please come back here if you need help with xDrip and we will do what we can to help.
