Can someone give me the TLDR on pens

Where did you get yours from? A lot of stores seem out of stock.

Suprisingly, Ebay came through for me. You can get them there now!!

Pretty much the same process. Although I've found it easier to vent with an insulin syringe and take the removed plunger to exhaust air by pushing up the bottom of the cartridge until it's within 5-ish units. If I try to remove the larger portion of air by clicks I can't seem to get the air bubble out.

I got one of those cute cart holders with the cylinder in the middle for pushing the cart plugs in from allthingspeptides

You seem to have some experience with pens. Which ones that you own, do you like better?

In order- Luxura, the “Mrs Goodlife” pastel pens sold by Goody’s (it’s a generic but good pen), Convipen/Gansulin, Savvio, Yifan, bird pen/gensupen, Novopen 4, Ergo, V4, V2 and very last is Allstar because it popped apart on me mid pin; happened to someone else I know as well. Many people love Novos but I just don’t care for it- but it works well. They all work well for me aside from the Allstar, I just like the “feel” of my favorites.

I have many more pens than I need, but I acknowledge it’s a collection as well as a need. I’ve gotten better- I was hell bent to get the elusive pink and green Savvios, but gave up when it became apparent they would be over $100 each. I’m not that addicted.

I use pens for the ones i have to pin daily. It makes the process a lot simpler, I am not a fan of one needle (draw and pin) . Before i use two needles one for drawing and one for pin. Thats when i decided to go for the pens for my daily ones.

I have 1 v1 and 2 v2, in asia hard to find those branded automatic ones.
