    @Commander FWIW I saw that notice on Medex page a couple of months ago too when there wasn't any shortage. That's a standard notice plastered on their BAC water page.

    @Randy said in Working on "large" storage option: we have a storage video on our youtube with links to downloadable files for the hydrapeaks. Do you recommend using PETG instead of PLA for those files?

    Just wanted to share these inserts with ice pack I got for the 25oz and 32oz hydrapeak bottles. The ice pack is the same height as the small flat tray insert. Acts as a good cold bank for fridge or freezer. 25oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GK9D4M8R 32oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GK94ZB6S [image: 1779058245242-collage_export_e9f5a185-f508-45ad-96ab-f1f30669f25f-resized.jpeg] [image: 1779058245778-img_2427-resized.jpeg]

    @pep_researcher said in Anyone else notice a huge difference in the Price Index search and the actual prices when you go to the vendor site?: @Stan-Douglas The unit on price index is not 1mg but 0.1mg. Not sure why. But if you multiply price index value by total mg × 10 it matches. Like in Hydro, TB500 10mg on price index is $0.77 per unit, so 10mg * 10 * 0.77 = $77. If you apply PEPCRITIC15 coupon you get 15% discount on Hydro site price $90, you get $77. Maybe @randy can fix the units to be mg instead of 0.1mg to avoid this confusion. That explains why it never looked right to me…

    @SR04 said in 3ML glass cartridge fill stand (3d printer): @Commander thanks, will look into it on Etsy/Ebay. Here is a link to one of his other products. Just go on there and send him a message. Send him this picture of mine he made for me… https://ebay.us/m/rBAL9M [image: 1778928147273-img_2011-resized.jpeg]

    @randy For some of the vial cases / designs you no longer sell in your store would you consider uploading the designs somewhere so that those with 3D printers can print them? You've got some pretty funny designs that I would love to print with my printer. My favorites might be 'Uncle Wang's Toilet Water" and the Wuhan ones.

    Thanks everyone. Unfortunately in Barcelona/Spain, it seems rather hard to get ice and such easily in a hotel, they literally only give me 2-3 small ice cubes lol. @randy That you linked is perfect, since its battery powered and not required an ice pack. curious, would this also work? https://a.co/d/011A8joN Reviews for both are mixed, and curious if it would be "cool enough" .

    This is a clown show. The syringes and pen tips I ordered Sunday got delivered (32g/6mm) but my two orders of 32g/4mm have now been indefinitely delayed. Same brand and vendor.

    Nice enjoy! I have a V2, V3.5, V4, and a Xulin 3 from the site and every one of them is dead on accurate. I check for accuracy every time I replace a cartridge.

    @noctivagant Ive been using a v2 pen for a month now with 29g 10mm pen tips for subQ T injection. I take the entire pen with vial and put it into a baby wipe warmer for about 5 minutes. No issues at all.

    @MyB That's the thing with using pressure canners though, the drying process. Even letting all the steam and pressure out of the vessel there is still moisture. Any little bit of water or moisture that gets left behind on the pouch can make the entire thing non-sterile. But using an autoclave with a dryer function solves that problem.

    @Randy said in Did anyone actually receive their BAC water from Medex?: Ive recieved 5+ cases from them in the last year. Ive been ordering from Amsco lately amscomedical.com/product-index/Syringes/Needles/bacteriostatic-water-30ml-794?__cf_chl_rt_tk=NzxBNUObft.P6MLXngkQFjuavFBbkje0NvKRhB1HXVM-1778548615-1.0.1.1-70bwZSz8zlT6em49ZtOejLPeqtqx.ROJc2U15zrtymc I'm going to bookmark this. I hate to compete in the rat race for Hospira on the standard sites and the out of stock drama. Me hating rat race sounds ironic given that we all research with lab rats!

    I would say it depends on what bacteria is in the spray. And we really never know that. A filter is pennies worth of protection. As always everyone's level of perceived "safety" is different with this stuff. Know the risks and make your own decisions off the info you have.

I've gone round and round the best i get it the bottles says the NiimBot app is running but i still have no display , no visuals, no graphics etc. I feel like it is a simple fix,but I cannot figure it out.

    @jagerman said in Can anyone recommend a pen that can push subq T: @kenhnsy v2 is manual right? Maybe I need to get a manual pen where I can push harder and steadier. V2 is manual and has the retracting cover. I like this because I can inject my girlfriend's big brown beaver with a lot of pressure to get into the muscle and no risk of slipping side to side. I recommend having a case since the open end on the pen exposes it to the world of microbes during storage.
