    This morning I let it sit out as I sipped my coffee and then I changed the needle. It worked! Thank you. The needle is so much better than the disposable insulin ones, I couldn't feel it! I was a bit worried to push the button, that it might just be on the outside of my skin! LOL

    @Randy I think that link is bad, the packaging is in Chinese, and the reviews are not great. I think you may need to update the link. Also take a look at the description.

    Nice! I have a v4 coming this week- very excited to see how much better it is than my beginner one that works well, but doesn't seem as quality as these!

    Thanks, will do. That cart only has 1-2 shots left. My two new gansulins, Semax, NAD+, and label printer all hit the porch today, so today is a good day. More research homework to do tonight.

    @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.

    Ive always been against having one pen and multiple cartridges. Ive seen people accidentally do reta instead of tesa etc. A couple v2 pens and a pack of carts from our store, and some 4mm needles from amazon would be all you need https://peptidecritic.com/store

    The Alcohol trick worked a treat. I'm really happy with being able to rotate cartridges and queue up the plunger within a click/U. It's funny, the lady and I both have 4 pens now. How this "hobby" grows.

    They're slightly shorter and thinner. They wont fit in any of the pens we have. The pens that use them are harder to find and disposable.

    @SEOCoder spot on. I do 6mm for glp because i really want to get the "fat juice" in there but 4mm is plenty.

    The pen needle might be too short to work with that pen. I don’t bother with the caps, personally.

    I like keeping a bit of a diary here in case it is helpful. I find that when I am doing my prep, I often refer back to Randy’s videos to make sure I am doing things right. Today I was reconning 3 MOTS-C vials and loading into a pen, 2 vials of NAD+(500mg buffered), 3 vials of Tesa, and 4 vials of ARA-290 for the bride’s rat. As you can see, there is a lot of prep gear to be used for this since I am basically running 4 lines at once. Everything went smoothly, though I have to say that my fixation with process and cleanliness ran directly into my desire for economy. Once done, I loaded the carts into one of my Gansulins, a V2, and a new V1 I just got. Most of the stuff you see is either available through Peptide Critic or is the same stuff used in the videos. There is always a lesson. This week’s lesson, actually last week’s, is to recon NAD+ with 2.5ml instead of 3ml. If I use 3ml, then by the time I have dissolved both vials, the volume is more like 4ml and it won’t fit into a cartridge. There is a lot of stuff in a 500mg vial, and not just filler.

    @Steve Im pretty much of a pen connoisseur as well. I have bought all of Randys pens and some others. So in my personal view i love my V1, why? Because it has a clicking action that i like. The V2-V3 practically, you push and its goes so you need to be more of an intermediate user if your trying to go slow. The new auto Gausen pen, is were i keep my Reta, its pretty bad ass, but i dont think i would swap pen vials or have 10 auto pens either. Randy just got a new Gausen pen not automatic im going to test out.

    @mrjoshua44 It’s funny, I have cut my drinking by 90% or more since going on tirzepatide. My wife moved from Ozempic to Tirz and she hasn’t seen any reduction in desire for booze at all. The variability in these effects fascinates me. Think of the money we’re saving! Well, I am spending all that money on peptides and peptide accessories, so maybe not saving that much.
