If I'm upright I can sometimes get 3 green bars, if I'm sitting 2 bars maximum and some days I get the dang orange bar and the beep beep beep. I have found the more pressure on it the less green bars but with my pain at an all time high I just can't sit or stand still long enough to get a quick charge so the beep beep can tip me over the edge sometimes.
I use the pouch most nights, but not without difficulty sometimes. Often have to get Rae to help. Part of the awkwardness I think is because of where my unit is situated just behind my left armpit. But with a little fiddling I can usually achieve 3 green bars. I'm hoping when things get back to normal that Rae might have time to make something more appropriate for holding the charge paddle in place.
