Curious about others Flex Implant locations

Where did you get yours?

Do you like the location or would you have rather gotten it somewhere else?

Scale of 1-10 pain?

I’m hovering over the place order button for the flexUG4 right now. I got a guy ready to install it. I just need some feedback on choosing a location before I commit.

P1, P3, P4

A bunch in my forearms in different locations.

My FlexUG4 is in my P4 -L

To answer this.

I am happy with all my location choices.
In the past, I have moved a few around, but they were reprioritising and upgrading.

As you are asking about the UG4, my P4 has worked very well for me.

Personally, I like the hands for presenting to readers, and the forearms for readers to be presented to.

I would like to add on a tiny bit here, xSeries only at the moment, so I’m using objectively worse antennas from a range perspective.

Outer forearm can work very well too (part facing towards ground when pointing a sword at the sky), but only for very specific readers. My desktop (kbr1) and ONE of the door swipes at work, I use my forearm, while the other 3 door swipes I use my R4.

i quite like the outer forearm for public transport turnstiles as they are usually flat at waist height so it’s a little less contortion :laughing:

I’m taking your advice for p4. Bought the implant and booked the appointment. In my right hand it just makes sense.

I get what you are saying about the hands for presenting to readers, makes sense and I agree.

Not quite sure I get what you mean forearms for readers to be presented to. Like…maybe the wireless readers I used to work with that scanned badges at checkpoints. They were basically just honeywell RMPK40 powered by a battery and a 2.4ghz bridge.

Basically, a phone (or desk reader)

Easier to move the reader (phone) on the forearms, than the other way around

Ohh I gotcha, that makes so much sense.

I installed the apex module in the back of my left hand and it sucked, I’d give that a 8, I install a m1448a magnet in my left forearm near the elbow and that was a breeze, I’d give that a 1 lol.
