    Heating up the oil?

    I want to heat up my vials of prop before I inject. What is the best way to do this? How hot etc?

    boil water in a pan, take off heat, leave for a min to let heat go out of bottom of pan, stand vials in the water

    or you could just heat some water up in the microwave and set a vial in it for a few mins...seems less labor intensive...

    boiling water???? just turn your tap water on the hottest setting and set your vial in a cup of it. That should heat it up enough.

    by the time u have taken the vial out of the water, swabbed it, allowed the IPA to disovle, drew from it etc..

    the oil will have cooled drasticly, especially when u get it in the syring in a small amount

    I daw with a 25g so i need to get my oil hot

    Why not? Water can't get hotter than 100 C, which will not damage anything. I like my gear much warmer than body temp, as it thins it out more.

    Its always a challenge to get the gear from the vial to the muscle before it looses its heat in my brief experience..for me the if the vial is almost too hot to hold 180° or so, it's fine by the time it hits the muscle. Of course some guys may be speed pinners....
