Reusable Injection Pens Recommendation and Q/A

[tcpnomad]

Try a V1 or V2, $15 isn't much to waste in case you don't want to gamble more cash.

I constantly come across the names V1-V4, but am still not sure if that is a version or brand or what. I mean, are these versions of some pen? Searching for it, I can find several pens that use that suffix. How do I find the correct "V2" that you are talking about? I feel dumb😛.

Oh - and cartridges? Do you sterilize them at home too?

So the V series I believe are just model types of generic brands. The V1 has an exposed needle and capacity of up to 80 units per click, the V2 only has 60 units capacity and a retractable end which conceals the needle like the rubber stamps that only stamp paper when you press down the spring loaded exterior. The V3 and V4 no clue really. Someone here commented the V4 is their favorite but I can't recall why.
As far as cartridges, most are universal except for 1 brand I can't recall either (but they sell adaptors). KS-Tech is known to be sterile but you can gamble with other brands. @Broken Chef sells cartidges he sterilizes himself and I trust him and all his products.

I hadn't even considered a pen until I saw the waste i produced from using disposable syringes. 3-4 pins each day adds up. I wasn't paying attention to this thread because I thought pens were for people afraid of needles or something.

I also like that since a transfer is necessary, filtering becomes easier to justify as a lazy person.
