first time pen experience - questions
-
I love my Novo 4 pens - But I DO NOT recommend them to anyone. They require a lit if worm to make work. I have spent a TON of money on Novo pens and adapters- it is expensive. So why do I like them and spend a ton of money on them - they are thin.
But you need NP Adapters, and you need to be conscious of if the pen is slipping or not. For 99% of the people a Xulin or a REAL Vxxx is the best bet. The Novo pens are like having an old hot rod car, great when they run, bit a pain in the ass to keep running.
I will say this, you will waste a TON of money trying to save $10 a pen buying it off of Ali, Etsy, eBay, etc.. save yourself the trouble and buy it from hear or Max Headroom or someone that has already wasted the money trying tons of different sources to get the good Vxxx pens.
It is funny, some places or people spend a TON of money testing everything in order to spread the information so everyone else csn benefit, only to deal with everyone who didn’t spend a dime telling them why they are wrong.
I see a lot of people posting on here and other forums on “my pen isn’t accurate, how do I fix it” - the fix, buy one from a Vendor that has already done the work for you to make sure the product is good. You can’t buy a $5 pen and think it is going to work like a $50 pen… some good things in life cost money. -
@jperiod I guess I'm not 100% understanding what you mean by priming. Once the pen cartridge is filled, I purge the air out with the breather needle. Once I put the first needle on the pen (with needle pointing up), I push out a couple of units at a time with the plunger until I see liquid come out of the needle. Sometimes, after seeing the liquid, I will push out another 2-3 units just for good measure.

On the same day I am going to pin a dose I reconstitute and filter into a cartridge. I use the same pen needle I'm going to pin to purge first. you don't really need a purge needle when filling your cartridge. When filling your cartridge and you start to feel pressure, release plunger and disconnect the luer slip part of the filter enough to release the pressure. You will not pop the cartridge plunger. I never had to disconnected the luer slip with 1ml. 2-3ml yes. You don't disconnect it completely. Just enough to allow it to blow out. Tight enough to hold and loose enough to disconnect

The cartridges can make a difference, too. I had a Gansulin that was only releasing half of the shot and I had to do a second press to get it to release it all. It only did it with my Amazon cartridges
@jackiee - quality carts makes a big difference with all the auto inject. Think Munan or Linuo.

@Randy will you be carrying 4mm filters? If so do you know how much volume ml you can push through them?
