FRIO Insulin Cooling Wallet (Individual, Blue)

I have just taken this product to a scout camp where there were no refrigeration facilities. I was a little anxious that it was not going to live up to the claims on the packaging. I am completely amazed how good it kept my pen cold on the hottest weekend so far this year when temperatures rose to roughly 30 degrees in the shade. I totally recommend this product. It is easy to use, light weight and stays cold for days. It does take a little while to dry out at room temperature but if you put it some where warm I am sure it will take less time. This is quite a small pouch and once swollen I could only fit one pen so I was happy to buy a second.

My husband uses these to keep his insulin pens cool when we go away on holiday, very handy if you don't have the use of a fridge. We'll recommend.

This is an excellent idea and travelling with insulin pens is now a little less worrying. Very simple to use, just soak in cold water for five minutes, drain for about 30 minutes and then use. On the down side, I wish I had not bought the red colour as the dye leaks out every time it is used although the manufacturer does warn of this.

I am reluctant to buy anything online because delivery to my home is not convenient.However, once I bought this insuin wallet, I wish that I had bought one before now. I expect that I will use it often in future. Apart from its obvious use for going on holday, I will be able to use it when my insulin pen is due to run out (or may run out) during the day. I can then use the insulin wallet to conveniently take just one insulin cartridge 'incase' I need it during the day. It is light-weight and convenient for taking on public transport, or even in a handbag, as well as for hand-luggage for air travel.

Bought this on the Diabetic Nurse's recommendation because I walk a lot and for air travel. Haven't used it for air travel yet but out hiking it has proved it's weight in gold.Kept insulin pen cool in all weathers. We camped and I kept the NovoRapid in this single use one from Sunday till following Friday. The larger wallet works as marvellously, holding the Levemir and a couple of spare pens.I would certainly recommend this wallet and the larger one which holds 4 pens comfortably.

Our son suffers with allergies and for our first holiday abroad we didn't know how we would get on storing his epipens in the heat. This product really is excellent and helped us sit by the pool and on the beach confident that the pens were kept cool at all times. They are easy to use and transport. Would highly recommend this product.

You just soak the inner sleeve in water for 5 mins and the internal crystals soak up water and expand, you can then slot your insulin pen in and place in the outer case. It keeps the insulin at a stable temperature for around 2 days before you need to re-soak in water. You can carry in your pocket without worrying about your insulin overheating even in very hot countries.Makes this an essential item for me now when travelling or exercising for long periods in hot weather.

I have bought other frio products which I am very pleased with. I wanted a bag which would hold one pen only. This one barely does it. Still as good as the other bags I have but it is so hard to get the pen out on the first day of use. I think only a very slim pen would fit or a spare pen you do not plan to use for 24 hours.
