Storing oils warm during cycle

[Survivalism]

I started heating my oils before injection and I don’t see myself ever going back. Previously I was using a baby bottle warmer, worked great but I got tired of dealing with the water and emptier vials floating / rolling.

Saw a recommendation here to use a baby wipe warmer which works great but takes considerably longer to heat the oil.

The wipe warmer has 3 settings:

86-95
104-113
122-131

Right now I keep it on the 3rd setting and put the oils in for 10-30 minutes, they are warm by this time but nowhere near 122-131.

What are the dangers to oil longevity if I were to just store my in use vials in the warmer at the 86-95 setting? I have to imagine this will increase oil degradation and reduce its life span.

I haven’t tracked how long it takes me to get through a vial but some of my higher concentration vials can definitely take a few weeks.

just warm it before pinning bro.
get a mug warmer for it to go faster.
you can even put it on a stove if you got an electrical stove. its even faster.

Storing warm just wastes electricity

I appreciate your response and concern for my electricity bill, but, if I don’t need to buy a 3rd warmer I would prefer not to.

It would also be more convenient for me to have the oils up to temperature as soon as I am ready to use them if it’s a viable option.

If it’s not a viable option, yes, I plan to buy a mug warmer.

I don't think you will see any much if any degradation keeping oils at 100 -105 degrees in just a few weeks. It sure makes it go in easier with smaller gauge needles.

If you inject at the same time every day or week or whatever:

Keep the oil in the baby wipe warmer and plug it in to a smart plug/smart switch. Set the timer on the smart plug to turn on an hour (or two or three) before the time you inject. Have it turn off an hour after that time.

My man, the best of both worlds. I think this is going to be the ticket.

I use a mug warmer to heat up my oils especially helpful if the oils crash. I just store my oils at room temperature and heat up if needed.

They'll probably oxidize quickly

backfill insulin pins (keep them upright with a small bubble of air between the stopper and the oil) and keep those in the wipe warmer. can put some stuff like a gel heat pad or whatever to take up space and keep them upright.

that way you get warm oil, but dont have to risk degradation or oxidation of ALL of your oil.

Why not use a smart plug with the warmer? You can set a desired time 30 minutes before you inject each day. Plus you can just turn it on remotely using your phone.

Bought a smart plug, set it up last night and realized my wipe warmer doesn’t automatically turn back on to the previous setting.

The amount of shit I buy for this lifestyle is wild.

Another wipe warmer or just go to a mug warmer..

Wipe warmer isn’t tall enough to store them standing up, also, I wonder how heating the needle would be for the pin itself?

I shock my muscles by pinning at a different time each day
