What's the best way to open a sustanon amp? I think I read somewhere that I should put a pen cap over the top of it, and snap it off. When I break it off, will the amp break clean, or will some of the glass fragment, and fall into the liquid? And after I get it open, I assume I just stick the needle in it, and pull the liquid out, right? Doesn't opening the amp cause it to no longer be sterile?
score it with a sharp object then do the pencap. Justd stick the needle in and pull it out. You might wanna mix the sust w/ somthing else to make it not hurt as much. You can also run it under warm water for a min or so. I hear this helps pain too.

why dont you get a small nail file to score around the neck and then use a tea towel or paper towel to do the break or the pen cap idea is good to.
im not sure warming helps with the pain but it helps if the oil is a little thinner because you can take your time and inject it gently, rather than having to squeeze real hard just to move the plunger.
to help with the pain make sure your targer muscle is REALLY RELAXED!! (that means floppy relaxed!) and inject nice and slow and easy.
as for opening the amp im with Hitman - i use a paper towel all folded round it and then just press the top off. iv never had bits of glass in the oil.
and yes once it is open its no longer sterile since air and anything else for that matter can now get into it. you should at least draw it all into a pin, even if you dont inject it all, at least it will be air tight. i beleive you can leave this for several days and still inject it safely (iv never done this) but just to check ask another question or use the search funciton for "preloading" or something similar.
:D
i too remember hearing that heating sus amps helps with pain
never tried it myself
anyone know if its true or not?
thanks for feedback
kaz........... does heating thin it
If you go to getpinz.com They also sell amp openers I just picked up two of them. But havent used them yet. I got them for about $8 apiece.
just use a credit card put it behind the top and quickly snap it off,,,,it is relly easy and should snap off clean..
bro, i just get a wash cloth, hold it upright and steady, grip it tight, and snap that mofo off...it might take a couple of attempts but it will work. just remeber that they are made to be "snapped off"
Amp Openers make great stocking stuffers! J/K but i think I am going to order a few for my friends who are cycling. For $8 a pop you cant go wrong! X your the man for carrying these badboys. Props to you once again!

heating any oil makes it thinner. i always put all my oils into a bowl of warm water for a couple of mins at least before i use them.Quote:

i usually go by the viscosity of the fluid to tell how warm it is - in other words does it swill like water or like.. well oil!!
when its moving something like water its ready - this makes it easier to draw into the pin and easier to push into your muscle - as for helping the pain im not too sure, since i always do this and i never have pain i guess it must :D
pen cap works the best. I don't score my amp just put the pen cap over the top you could wrap a towel or wash cloth around it just in case you don't wanna get cut. Then snap it off i always get a clean break. No need to waste money on amp openers I would rather by another amp.
the other week one of my amps broke completely :(
I just get a cloth and snap it..(I HAVE
NOT LOST ONE YET)but do it quick....
Most amps are so easy to break I just grab the neck and snap it. If that's too hard I give it 2 or 3 sliding down towards the end squeezes with some eversharp scissors just enough to put a small groove on the sides of the neck and then it snaps off really easily. It's easy once you've done it.
If you're not going to stick it all today then suck the rest into a pin and store it in the pin. Don't leave juice sitting around in the vials.
I use the scoring with a file, then snap off with a pen cap. I also run syringe under hot water before injecting, really helps with the pain when the viscoscity is low
