Hey, it’s been a while since I’ve been active on the forums so forgive me if I’ve missed some posts where this was asked already. I’ve got some catching up to do…
I bought an apex flex back when they first went up for preorder and unfortunately have been waiting on my installer to get around to installing it until this month. I realized thought that it now comes with needle lube and my package did not originally include any. If anyone has any experience I’m wondering how much of a difference the lube makes and if I should aquire some.
Besides the question, I’m quite excited to finally get it in since I’ve already got several uses lined up.
I’ve bought a Tesla since I order the apex,
My dorm floor has upgraded some of our custom access control system to nfc (desfire but since I have access to enroll my own card I’m hopeful the apex can do it unless I misunderstood something long ago,
My college, RIT, is finally switching to nfc (we think desfire ev2) too and I’m hoping I can convince someone to let me just reach over the counter with my apex to enroll it. Not holding my breath but we will see.
Add to that all the fancy auth stuff it can do and I’m quite excited.
I wouldn’t say it’s critical, but it will make it a “smoother” process of sliding thru and around under your skin
If your installer is a professional I’d be suprised if they don’t have a stash themselves… my installer it wasn’t even a question he had it ready to go
My installer is my dad who is a head athletic trainer and did my NeXt a while ago. I’ll ask and if he doesn’t have some I’ll bet one of his coworkers does as we plan to get one of his physician/doctor coworkers to supervise like last time.
Good to know it’s not that critical though if we don’t have any, or more realistically i forget to mention it…
Medical and piercing yes, but don’t go putting some unsterile sex lube on your needle… that stuff is not the same basically just make sure the stuff you’re using is sterile and not general purpose lube.
Damn. I knew I was a dumbass but I didn’t realize I was this blind.
I went to double check one last time before anyone sends me some lube and turns out since I only handled it briefly because, ya know, sterile and stuff and I wanted to be careful with the bag containing it… I never actually turned it around… I saw there was nothing in the bottom of the box and it wasn’t on top of the implant but I never checked…
You should put a big speaker that yells “THE LUBE IS GLUED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BAG” when someone opens the box, i think it’s the only reasonable solution
