Novopen 4

Yes as long as you get the Max V1 adapter with it. The cartridge holder it comes with is meant for a Penfill insulin cartridge and a 3ml cartridge is slightly too thick to fit in the cartridge holder.

@Ctrain24 ive had some carts fit and some not. Thanks for mentioning the STL's are available in stg. I grabbed them. Trying them at .2 with some pla and some nylon filament.
The novo pens are one of the better feeling mechanisms but if the spacing is off (carts can vary by a few mm) then you have to put a spacer in or it just spits out the wrong amount.

@Randy
Isn’t there also some carbon filament or something that is stronger you could print them out of. The guy who does all my 3d printing mentioned something about it.
Also Max updates those files a lot, so check back periodically to see if he has any new ones. He is obsessed with making that thing perfect. I know he has a newer one possibly than the 1.29…Please excuse my typos. Small Phone & Bad Eyes

The new version currently available is v1.37 and way better than the previous ones. No spacer required and more durable. Got a Novopen 6 a couple of days ago and it's excellent with the latest adapter.

You should buy both and you will see for yourself. There is a reason a lot of people buy the Novo 4 and buy the adapter. But if you have to ask why, you should probably just buy something else… leave the Novo 4 for the vast amounts of people that bought 10 different pens to test them and now use the Novo 4. Probably to much trouble for you…

@Commander, just ordered from Daropep, you answered the question. My concern is accuracy. I will see how it goes and test it. I am thinking to go through all this trouble, it's got to be great and it's the cost of almost 4 V4's and two Xulins so it needs to be. You are a great poster, so here we go

Could someone please point me in the direction or send me a link to where this is

️@ANITABURN Same here…. want to buy a legit Novo 4 and adapter from legit sources.

Some people are still having problems with the newest 1.37 adapter. I love the Novo 4. Just understand it is not as simple as using a Xulin. A couple if my friends got tired of having to mess with the Novo 4 slipping occasionally and switched to the Xulin.
I don’t mind messing with jt, so I still use the Novo 4. But it is definitely not always going to work… -

the novos are off by about +5 units when you do 20. It has to do with them being made for a different cartridge and the internal volume of that cartridge.
IMO if you are going for one of the big evil pharma pens the savvio takes the cake.

Score!! I opted not to try the Novo's because I didn't want to deal with the adapters. Decided to order a Savvio to try instead. Should be delivered tomorrow. I'm really liking the pens that won't let you dial more than what's left in the cartridge.
