Your handset battery will last 1 day at typical usage. We recommend to charge your handset battery every day. You can extend the battery life by adjusting your screen brightness. As for your pump, it will last at least the three days use cycle or the full use of an insulin cartridge.

Kaleido insulin cartridges hold 200 units of insulin and we offer 5 cm or 30 cm tubing length. Are 200 units not enough for three days? No worries! With Kaleido, it’s just a matter of filling a new insulin cartridge and clicking it into place.

Kaleido is currently approved for use with U100 Rapid-acting insulin – NovoRapid® and Humalog®. We’re looking into adding more insulin types in the future.

Swimming: A little dip? No sweat! But your Kaleido pump can function in water up to 1.5 metres deep for up to one hour. If you’re planning on swimming longer or diving deeper than that, you’ll need to pause and remove your pump first. If you pause your pump, your handset will keep track of how much insulin you’ve missed. Every day: If you’re about to jump into a bath or shower, the water depth shouldn’t be a problem, but it’s important to consider your water temperature. We advise that you pause and remove your pump first, rather than expose it (and your insulin!) to high temperatures. Keep in mind that you need to keep your handset dry at all times. More information on how to use Kaleido in these situations you can find in our User Manual.
