Pen cartridge leaking /
-
I’m experiencing a good amount of leakage when administering dosage from my cartridges. I have experienced this with both a manual v2 v4 and automatic pen. I’ve tried injecting slower etc.
I’ve tried using a smaller 31g vent needle when filling and still get the leakage. I have also used a couple different vendors cartridges. I’m leaning towards my pen needles being the problem at 32g? Has anyone experienced this before and what’s your solution? -

@Stevepep I’ve had a few drips in the past from the tip of the pen needles being but this is coming from the area where the needle and cartridge screw together.

@stevenstrong Oh wow, I completely misunderstood. I had one cartridge start leaking as I filled it, but that is my only experience with a bad cartridge. I did just destroy a pen, and it may be related to your experience. Somehow the rubber stopper got crooked, and it was stuck, so I just pressed harder (peptide muscles )and broke the pen's internal mechanism. Check and see if the rubber stopper is crooked. If so, just use a syringe to draw the peptide out and start with a new cartridge. Maybe do that anyway and see what happens

I just excepted it and justify it by "what ever is left in the needle lumen is not backing into your cartridge". You'll really notice how much you are loosing when using 5 amimo' (orange)or Ghkcu (blue). Def a few mcgs.
@EXTROPIAN I just finished some KLOW and pulled the remainder just to see. Mine was about 4 units left in cartridge

I sometimes have the same thing happen and once the innards of pen, as well as the cartridge, launched across the room. I now give a little push to the back of the cartridge piston to get it past that initial stick-tion. This seems to work.
