Big thank you to @Amal / DT for the fast delivery! This is going to be both a fun install and interesting exploration.

You are probably already aware
But here are a couple of resources to get you started
…
Well I was going to add my post, but it is now outdated and Tac0s Global platform is really all you need.
Included anyway incase there are any helpful nuggets in there

Hey Pilgrim, thank you for that! I’ve done a fairly thorough reading of the forum, I actually was thinking of posting a small bridge document/post with a consolidated info dump sometime soon on the research and exploring of usecases for me! I think your post is one of the main ones I found very useful!

That sounds awesome, I’m looking
forward to it.
I’m super envious of your Module version, I would have grabbed one of those if they were avaliable when I got my FlexSecure.
Just sayin’

I’ll upload it soon!
Can always get it as a backup ;D
Ha, yeah! Will definitely be recording it and putting it up in that thread, just need to see whether I can find someone local or do a quick day/weekend trip to Germany for the installation! In the meantime, gives me some additional opportunity to finish up on some of the code I’m writing and test on the new J3R180 cards before committing to implementing on the flexsecure!

Arnulf is exactly who I had in mind if I can’t find someone in NL, though i’ll probably have to go for him since from what I’ve read theres some regulatory/legislative restrictions regarding implants in the Netherlands.

ooo what perfect timing! I’ve been rifling through the forums for a couple days looking for more Apex/FlexSecure Module posts.
@not_a_daemon Very excited for you! Have you already decided on an install location?
And to anyone who has experience with the module-sized flex, how noticeable are they after healing, visibly and by touch? There are some people in my life who I don’t want knowing about my implants, so it’s a consideration of mine.

Going to guess this depends a bit on the location and your skin/body. My module is in my wrist, and it is not visually noticeable. I have a smaller flex in p4 that is easier to feel, maybe because of thinner skin on the back of hand?
You can feel it, but it is subtle and I would say not very likely someone would casually find it. It feels like something flat under the skin, but you have to specifically poke or rub it just right to feel it. I would say it should hide well from normal touches, but would not hold up under extended groping.
The main tell would be any scar. I have one from the install (module size means scalpel install), but my scars tend to be very contrasted and visible. Also a scar could just as easily be from that fight you had last week with bear, doesn’t have to be from the electronics you installed.

Ok great, this was the location I had in mind, maybe 1.5 - 2 cm above where I would wear a watch.
I have a NExT in P0 - L, and I haven’t had any issues hiding that so far. It sounds like the thicker skin of the wrist may help me out.
How was pain during and healing after installation? Is your module parallel to your arm, or perpendicular? Would you have done anything differently?
Thank you for your time and advice, by the way.
