    New here and feel fortunate to stumble upon Peptide Critic after 6 months of my own research. It's been a journey to gather accurate information and find quality/reasonably priced suppliers. (Excited about EZpeps & Nexaph)

    I'm interesting in getting starting with using pens for research but don't really know where to start based on the different versions. I've been through the blog/tutorials/youtube videos and am looking for a beginner one to get me started.

    This is what I've gathered I need so far:

    Research Pen
    3ml glass cartridges
    Plus pen tips 33g x 4mm (may try the Novofine after getting familiar with this new kind of research)

    Besides the research pen recommendation, am I missing anything to get started?

    Much appreciated.

      3 ml Luer lock syringes
      1.5” luer lock needles (25-27ga)
      Venting needles (29-30ga? 1-1.5”)
      70% alcohol swabs
      Bac water

      You may already have some or all of this, but it’s worth making sure you have them before you start loading carts.

      Welcome!

        *Update - I have been doing research the traditional way and have everything I need for that kind of research. I'm looking for advice on a beginner research pen and what's needed with that. Thank you!

            *Found both links by going through other posts, all good!

            Still wondering if the Research Pen V3.5 is good for a first pen, thanks!

              I like the v2, Xulin, and Gansulin auto-pen. The V2 is probably a good choice; available in the store here. I haven’t used the v3.5 yet.

              I get most of my supplies/gear on Amazon.
