None of my auto injectors have proven reliable. I have 2 Birds and they are the worst. They tested great new, but before getting through a full cartridge, they started hanging where they don’t inject the full dose. You have to keep clicking the button and “helping” it by also turning the cap at the end. Defeats the whole purpose of an auto injector. When I asked around, people said “yeah, they don’t like to be cold.” But peps are stored in the fridge and I’m not going to take the cartridge in and out of the pen every day as that also defeats the purpose of having a pen to begin with.BigDog8084 said:Been a while since anyone put something in here, checking in on how these pens are holding up for everyone. Thinking about pulling the trigger on one soon.

If you mean the solid colored pens that come in yellow, orange, etc- I love them. I have 2 of each color.c0c0_ly said:Has anyone used or tested accuracy on the Goodlife/Mrs Goodlife branded pens?

I think I am going to get a couple and test them out (including V1 & V2). I hope I get some good ones.Dos-Dox said:None of my auto injectors have proven reliable.

The Gensu2 is basically the same design but metal and better, but also started hanging about 1/3 of the way through its first cartridge.
The Convi is the best, but also hangs. It now takes 2-4 clicks to get it to dispense the full dose.
I’ve checked all of my cartridges to make sure the rubber stopper isn’t in backwards. (I saw pics of a batch of cartridges where this was the case.) I also tried putting a little olive oil on the plunger/screw mechanisms and working them in and out multiple times but that didn’t improve performance either.
So, honestly, it’s hard to beat the manual V1 slim that I paid $17 for (but can frequently be found for $13). I’m probably done with auto injectors at this point.

The liki24 shop is now empty.
I have a cart that I filled up with BAC. Then assemble the pen and stick a regular insulin syringe into the end (instead of a pen tip), dial up a dose on the pen and trigger it. Then see how many units ended up in the insulin syringe. It should match whatever dose you dialed on your pen. I’ll do several tests over the whole range that the pen can do to make sure it’s accurate for small doses and larger doses. Just make sure your cart is properly purged and that the plunger is all the way to the cart before you do your test or it’ll appear to short you and won’t be an accurate test.thebonus said:How are ya'll testing the dosing of the pens?
Are you letting the pen push the plunger of the empty syringe or are you creating some space in the syringe first and then purging the air to get the final count?Dos-Dox said:I have a cart that I filled up with BAC.

Not OP, but I usually loosen my syringe. Pulling the plunger in and out several times with warm water. Then leave the plunger down when I test. It takes away a bit of resistance when you loosen it. Dos Dox may have a different method, as they use BAC to test, and I use water (I mark a cartridge as "Test" and keep it hand for new pens)thebonus said:Are you letting the pen push the plunger of the empty syringe or are you creating some space in the syringe first and then purging the air to get the final count?
