Making Test Easier to Draw ?

[houseofpain]

Test Ethan is a little on the thick side and it seemed like it took forever to get the needle to draw it all up (from an ampule) using a 25 gauge.

Does anyone know if the viscosity of Test Ethan diminishes if you warm it up? (e.g. will warming it up under hot water make it draw easier into smaller gauge needles)?

I don't think you'll be able to do much to make it easier drawing with that small of a gauge pin. If you can get some 18g pins, to use frow drawing it makes it very very easy, that's what I do. Then put the original pin back on the syringe & shoot, also keeps the smaller gauge pin sharper.

get a 22 or 23 gauge needle...it should make it easier

Yes put it in a cup of medium hot water for a minute or so.
Good point using a different needle to draw out the liquid. It helps to keep the injecting needle sharper and less painful.

GEt some 18 gauge to draw with.

Yeah, you need to use a larger guage needle (like 18/19 ga) to draw up test, then slip on a 25 guage for inject. Geoff

i always draw with an 18g, so much easier

 

[Mythicalbeing]

Yeah bigger to draw with(18), the smaller to hit yourself with( 23-25)

When its warm its not that bad at all... 24g worked just fine fer me.
