There's an Apex info page?!

I THINK I know where the confusion came from… From some quoted text taken out of context

BUT
When you read the full statement, your Point is clear

I hope that clarifies things for you @Kinanizer

Thank you, that makes sense.

That is what confused me, but no I still don’t get Amal’s point. I’m sorry if I’m being dense, but it really just sounds like Amal is advising to not get a spark. Unless by “think hard” he means he would recommend it? Ya, I suppose that would make sense. Okay, then thanks I think I get it now!

Yes you do :+1:

hah sorry… yeah that’s not the typical usage of that phrase… in the context of the discussion the person was considering not getting one… i could have definitely said it better though…

I’ve been looking for dimensions on the Apex Flex but haven’t had any luck nailing anything down, has this information not yet been released? I know we’re all getting hyped on something that’s still awhile out.

Anyway, just curious as I’ve got my calipers out and I’m measuring spots on my hands. I went with the dimensions of the Flex One beta and found a couple decent spots. Didn’t realize how small the FlexNT was though until I realized I could theoretically put two of them end to end on the blade of my hand. Then it’d just be a matter of which direction I swipe my hand over a reader for which one gets triggered. I seem to have rambled a bit…

TL:DR Apex dimensions plz, calipers are cool, and the FlexNT is comparatively tiny.

It will be wedge shaped… 7mm wide at the bottom, 8mm wide at the top. The length is still TBD but somewhere between 28mm and 40mm is likely.

totally didnt just shudder at the thought of a inch long implant being inserted into my wrist

That thing is going to be wild

hah yeah :slight_smile: … at first I was like “40mm is waaay too long… people will freak out” but then I remembered that implantable birth control (Norplant for example) is a 2mm by 40mm long rod and millions of women get them every 3-6 months without complaining what-so-ever… so yeah, deal with it hahaha.

Ha! true.

Mmm and that sweet, sweet read range and consistency will be so worth it.

Let’s not kid ourselves here, women have a better tolerance to pain than men. Every paramedic, emt and nurse I know says the same thing.

Sorry lads, but it’s true :laughing:

No I’m not arguing that when my partner gave birth to both our kids with only gas and air confirmed this.

But the application of local anesthetic helps.

We offer the PMK, but for people who can’t use that, we’re working on a comparable topical solution that will numb things completely (topicals almost never do this, but we are working on a thing).

Can these be shipped to the uk.

I’m 2 for 2 so far without any pain management hell almost no pain at all but think it’s good to keep options open.

Not to mention thousands of people who get thick, silicon implants down entire arms and other places! :upside_down_face::slightly_smiling_face:

If by “these” you mean the PMKs… they are illegal in the UK… however the receiver is the liable party for confirming the legal status and suitability of products for import, not the shipper… so we can still try to ship it. It will probably get seized or bounced though.

what would the difference be of the glass capsule and and the flex? Does one have a longer read range?

Yeah, pretty much that. The antenna form factor in a flex chip is a good deal stronger from my understanding.
