Pen cartridges issue
-
Good morning! I had a question for you. I’ve recently started using your pens and I really appreciate the qualitity! The V1 pen has been amazing. However, one thing I’ve noticed is that when the plunger gets to the curve of the vile towards the end it can’t push anymore and it’s trapping peptides in there. I’ve been doing peptides for about a year never use a pen before. I usually try to reconstitute my peptides with a 4 week life to avoid expiring. In order to properly combat this issue would you calculate and add more BAC water to make sure we are getting 4 weeks worth , or do you recommend drawing the remaining out with a syringe and mixing it with a new batch?
-
it always keeps about 10 units in the curved part. Pens are about convenience more than anything.
You can pull the remaining peptide out and use it. Clean the self healing seal with an alcohol pad, grab a fresh needle, pull about 30 units of air, inject that air and you will have no issue drawing the rest of what's in the cart.
Hope that helps!

@randy hey Randy… I have tested all the pen models and i keep going back to the V1, for me i love the individual click per unit, the others especially the v3 is harder to click 1by1 its like 1 click and you i ejected 20units. Lol
One thing is i have never used the rubber gasket on the V1, am i missing something h not using it?
Thanks

By rubber gasket do you mean the little printed thing people use to get the little bit left out? I'm using v1's for NAD and Glutathione right now.
On the v3 that might be backpressure in the cartridge.
We will be adding xulinpen 3 to the store soon. I think you will like it better than the v1. I've been testing two for a couple months and once we get this shipment in I'm snagging a few extras for myself. Its luxura but better.

I heard it was to get the last drop of peptide from the cartridge however you already did a video on a solution for that.
My concern was accuracy however ive tested my pens several times and they dose correctly.
Can you give us a sneak peek on the new V3 pen… now you have me intrigued. Lol

Hi. I'm looking for a pen that hides the needle, I thought the V-2 pen did that. This would be for my daughter who's afraid of needles? Thank you. Do you have one like that, and do you recommend it over the other pens. Thanks
-
with the "High Temperature Autoclave Machine 110V 300W 1.5L by Plutusdental" from Amazon, could one reuse the cartridges after autoclaving?
-
no. that would just melt stuff. Its the pressure combined with steam and heat that hit all the corners. you would first need to push the stopper out with air, toss it all in a sterilzation pouch. Something like this is what you use https://amzn.to/4rFkGxu

Throw away, yeah? No idea how one would even begin to think this is going to be sterile. (I didn’t pay for them; they came ‘free’ with a v2 pen I bought on amazon.)
-
@randy if we wanted to buy bulk cartridges for the research pens, do you have a recommendation?
-
@randy I hadn't noticed previously (shame on me) but the steam "key" on the glass cartridges I ordered from the Peptide Critic shop is blue vs. black. Am I misreading that this indicates that these haven't. been steam sterilized? Is it DYI? Appreciate the guidance.
