Wasteful Pen Cartridge Experience

[MyB]

@judgetoo once you push the plunger up the exposed glass is no longer sterile. What you’re doing is not a safe handling technique.

[judgetoo]

@MyB Fair point but I haven’t had any issues (so far).

@judgetoo theres a term for that. It’s called survivor bias.

You such a smart-mouthed dawg! LOL!

Look, I'm no expert whatsoever, but a breather needle is supposed to BREATHE. If you're trying to fill within seconds of inserting the breather, you might want to give it a bit more time. Just sayin', IDK.

I can tell you I did have problems with Amazon Carts and the ones off Aliexpress. I will never buy them again.. a good cart makes a difference

I have done okay with PenDepot carts, but at this point, I just buy from PeptideCritic and I have a lot of carts and filters right now.

@ResearchCat
I just get them here (Peptide Critic) now too. Jeff gets them and makes sure they are good and work in everything, so I don’t have to do the work. Maybe I am just a little lazy and don’t want to do the work anymore…

I've started installing the empty cartridge in the pen then filling it, that keeps the plunger from backing out in case something happens to the breather needle and makes it generally bit easier to handle.

Good suggestion.

I’ve got a couple of those reconstitution stations - they look shit hot but I never use them.
