Small Freezer with no Auto Defrost.

[Whiynot20026]

I have a few sets coming and I want to freeze them. Reta, Tirzep, NAD and BC10. I have three different freezers in my home and they all auto defrost. It sounds like Auto Defrost could damage the peps. Does anyone own or have experience with a great small freezer that will work for my long term Peptide storage needs.

Lypholized peps are going to be fine. Janoshick even mentioned a shelf life of years at room temp, doubt a defrost cycle is going to have any impact. I've noticed no loss of potency in my freezer stored peps

Thank you. This is one of those ones with many opinions. I figured for 200 bucks having a designated freezer could be worth it. But if you think it’s ok, that is a big step in the right direction.

Here's my pep freezer:

How long does the auto-defrost defrosting on a freezer last, anyway? Would an airtight thermos jar (like a hydrapeak or something similar) protect the peps from that fluctuation? My chest freezer doesn't have an auto-defrost but that's how I store mine because it's easy, solid, and convenient.

If anyone is interested this is the freezer we decided to buy to dedicate to our Pepitides sets. We spent way too much time searching for one that will do the job.

If you are really looking for long term storage you want a freezer that will consistently hold -20c. Peptides are very stable but Freeze/Refreeze is not supposed to be good for them. With auto-defrost the temps can fluctuate quite a bit which isn't ideal. If you are shooting for a few years, it probably doesn't matter. If you want more like 8-10 you probably want the -20 without auto-defrost. Theoretically at least, none of this has been tested with common peps.

This little thing has been great.
