Which type do you prefer for your temporary basal settings?

I like the percentage way. It seems easier for me.

I use percentage I find it easier, plus It does what I need it to do for that time, with that percentage.

percentage …U/H equals insulin rate ?..my pump is set on " percentage" and to be honest never tried the other setting. I stick to what I am comfortable with .Darn good question !

Percent. Much easier here also.

Animas only does percentages, and I find that easy enough… I just wish they offered 5% increments.

I’ve used both. I really do not have a preference.

I’ve only ever used the U/H format. Based on the consensus here though it sounds like I should definitely try the percentage way sometime.
