Tandem Diabetes Care t:holster Rotating Belt Clip, Black

Great for workouts

Except for the actual clip eventually breaking, which takes a long time, this is by far my favorite pump clip. There was a time when it wasn’t available on Amazon (I needed another one after about 3 purchases), I thought this was not being made anymore and started looking around. I bought two inferior ones, the first breaking within a day and the second after about nine months, but the whole time I used the second one, my pump would slip and slide in the case. Not this one, tight and secure. Anyway, I would recommend this one wholeheartedly.

I've been a tandem pumper for a few years and was someone who hated the change to the metal clips; they'd break at least every 6 months, I'd have my pump slipping all over the place, and after a few months the case takes on this ugly black coating (even when it started out as hot pink). This is a complete night-and-day change for the better! I am able to more securely attach my pump even to more flimsy material like the front of my bra or slippery pants. Quick bolusing and doing cartridge changes are also pretty quick and easy to do. The case rotates with a simple twist of the clip, so I can have my pump in any weird angle I need it to be in. One downside to the case though is that there are quite a few free edges of the pump exposed, so I can see it being a lot easier to crack the screen if the pump is hit at a weird angle.

Have to replace these about every 2 years, or so, because the spring clip breaks. Fits better than any "off" brands I've tried.

This is a great product - I needed a way to one-handedly attach and unattached my pump. This thing fit the bill. It's sturdy too. It's FAIRLY unobtrusive and it has protected my pump from many-a-fall. It WILL break occasionally: Twice now I sat down in a chair, and the pump hit/got caught on the arm of the chair on the way down and broke the whole holster. I totally understand why it broke due to the force of the whole situation. I'm just annoyed that it feels like salt in the wound that Tandem customers have to pay for the stupid pump, pay for the stupid supplies, and babysit the damn thing with all its beeping and buzzing and yelling at us when we eat - why can't TSlim users just get this holster for free included with our initial purchase of the pump? The case/clip the pump comes with is horrid. It's aggravating that we have to order this additionally AND that it costs nearly 30 bucks. I think that's way overpriced for what it is, and is insulting for loyal customers who are forced to stick with this company to have to pay such a price.
