Digital Thermometer Question?

[Bud2Kind]

I was a Walgreens and was looking at the digi's and i asked the lady which would be the best for measuring liquids(i think she knew what i was up to, marijuana causes paranoia) and she said none there would work... The ones that you stick in your mouth when your sick wouldnt work? they even said waterproof? does it even matter which one i choose? if killerweed420 or IamN2Pot sees this you guys fucking rock! bought quick fix today by spectrum labs and cant wait to use it. :jointsmile:

what you need is a digital thermometer\hygrometer to measure the temperature and relative humidity of the air in your grow room, most will give you both the high and low values as well, over a period of time.

you also need a thermometer for your reservoir and you can find that in the pet department of Walmart, look for fish stuff
also a good place to get air pumps, stones and lines and fittings if you're growing in hydro

[Bud2Kind]

thanks for the info,and for responding, but i was asking more to measure the temp of the synthetic urine im going to use for my drug test :)

[jeffman]

I have to tell You the obvious but when randoms first came around, (I'm 50s) I worked in aerospace and a unlucky friend got picked and He checked the temp of a sample in the nurses office and was busted by the nurse because the digital thermometer beeped.

I have heard that You can use baby temperature strips that stick to the babies head, and stick them on the bottle. I never had to try it with QF everywhere

[Bud2Kind]

the bottle comes with a temp strip on it but i just dont want to take any chances..i've actually been clean for about 25 days and have until monday to take it but i took a home test and failed..lame..im just paranoid as a mofo and want this "Quick Fix" stuff to work.. never used it before

[GreenLeaf420]

No worries just wrap the heat pad 1 hr befoe and heat up in the Microwave for 10 seconds before applying the heat pad. If your not sure when you are getting the test just get a few heat pads and swap them out.

QUICK FIX WORKS.....

YOUR IN GOOD SHAPE...

[jeffman]

QF is the bomb and temp is Your only problem. If You read anywhere here You will see success after success. Good luck and just relax. Below is what has worked over and over for Me....

They will not observe unless You give them reason too, but they will be right on top of that bathroom door so do not use the squirt top on QF as it can and will make a sucking noise.

They will check temp big-time so if too warm swirl and blow Gently. Each swirl and blow will drop about 1 degree.

If too cool I have rubbed My finger on My pants and made it hot and held it over the temp strip on the container. Do not push on the strip!!! Just cover it with Your warm finger.

I have never seen a Quest employee put the sample anywhere near there nose to smell it and it would be crazy or possibly against there company policy I would hope.

QF is just enough to reach the legal line they can request. I come out and before they say anything I say this is all I could go, and they always say thats great. I even act embarrassed sometimes.

If You practice with QF and act like a normal person You will find them to be nice People.
They have there job and You have Yours.
Good luck and Please post the good news when You get it.

Thanks for the info guys..this community is awesome.. you about cleared any question that was on my mind..BUT.. so ten seconds in the microwave and then heatpad for atleast an hour and it will stay same temp in my pocket for a while? should i bring the digital thermom. just in case? plus i hope they dont smell because i smelt it and it really didnt smell like anything.. jeff and rest of community rock!..and to think this morning i started at step one, freaking out not knowing what to do!

[Bud2Kind]

also how should i go about practicing all i have is the quickfix box freshly opened with bottle and heatpad

[jeffman]

The bottle temp strip will be enough to monitor temperature and with practice You will see.

No pockets!!!!! Some places make You empty them out.

just microwave the bottle and don't waste the pad now. Put it between Your legs, (I shove it right in the pouch in My fruit of the looms and under the boys). You can watch the temp with no pad for now. You need it the day of the test.

Keep the heat pad away from Your skin. After You empty the bottle it is easier to put it right back in the same place and if You do don't put the heat pad against Your twins because with the empty bottle You will roast Your nuts on the drive home. (If Your male)

If they smell it and don't like it insist they taste it...:rasta:

You will be fine....Practice, Practice and relax, Good Luck...:thumbsup:

heat strip is reusable? green means ready2go?

[jeffman]

heat strip is reusable? green means ready2go?

Yes, But don't over heat it too much in the microwave. Start with 5 seconds.

****You do have QF 4.0, Correct?****

[Bud2Kind]

OK Brother, Make Us proud. This will be easy for You. Get the temp right (90 to 100 I think) and You will have the good news in 3 to 5 business days.

I went to Your homepage and it looks like one big party, Lots of good looking woman...:jointsmile:

[killerweed420]

A standard cheap wally world thermometer works good for double checking. Sometimes the temp of the QF will get a little out of range so its hard to tell by touch whether its a little low or a little high. And as stated earlier,don't buy one with a beeper.lol I kept it in my sock to double check when I was in the toilet. A little too high blow on the sample for a couple seconds,too low rub your thumb against your pants and touch your thumb to the temp strip on the cup.

[Bud2Kind]

Fo Sho! I moved to ohio from michigan like 2 weeks ago went from blunt or more a day to cold shoulder..I want to hit one and see Zohan soooo bad tho! This place that im tring to get a job at is probably the best job ive had yet and all i gotta do is take phone calls.. i hope i get this shit! im going to try and take the test today by 4 but if not last day is monday..i'll post how it goes, later fellas..btw any one in the cincinnati ohio area, im tring to get back on that tip!

[Bud2Kind]

FUCK IT IM GOING NOW ILL HOLLA!@

[Bud2Kind]

sry for not staying on this thread but went to lab with the quickfix and temp was perfect..good call on the pockets because i had to empty them.. i was really nervous in the test place though. It even started to feel like it was leaking in my shorts but it was my mind playing tricks on me.. But shit now i just need to find a "street pharmacist" so i can be one with nature once again! Thanks for all the help dudes couldnt have done it without yall! but now im a Quick Fix veteran but i should go cop another bottle just in case a random gets called in the near future.. whats the best way to store it if any?:smokin:

[jeffman]

Hey Bro, Glad You came back,

I know You did it today and there should be no reason why You won"t get good news by the latest, Friday of this week......Do pick up a bottle to have around, It's a small investment for piece of mind.......I store it in a cool dry lower dresser drawer, Or the bathroom medicine cabinet is great too as long as it's not in a outside wall.

The news about Your pockets brought a smile to My face and I'm glad You were listening. You did good and welcome to the sub club. I'll be the first to give You good rep in anticipation of Your new job.

[jeffman]

bump....Any news yet?

[JeffersonBud]

The type of thermometer that works in your mouth will not read lower temps in the 80's and 70's. Its meant to have a threshold of 90+

[orbiter33]

Does anyone know if this info will work for a urine test at lab corp. I have a test in the morning. Is there anything to add to this?

A urine test is a urine test no matter where Your having it done. What happened to You Bud2Kind???

[Czar100]

Jeffman or anyone that can help out. Great website and thanks everyone for caring about all of us!!!

I have a great job offer on the line and have only tomorrow to get tested...prospective employer just sent me a Quest GC/MS form with expiration date of June 19 so no time to order QF online...I have to hunt for it locally.

Questions:

1. Do test centers usually take walk in's? I can pick test Quest test center. How long is the usual wait until you pee (please post experiences).

2. I think I found a place that sells QF that opens at 11am. I was reading on the urineluck site the follwoing:

"Effective February 14, 2008 if your batch number (on directions inside box) ends in 05 you will need to send back for exchange. This product is not intended for use on lawfully administered drug tests and is to be used in accordance with all federal and state laws"

My question is what if local head-shop has this bad batch given that some stores may not be aware of this. Since my window of time is a little short (1 day) and cant drive around looking for a good batch should I be worried if I wind up with this?

3. Since I do not have time to practice much should I be fine with following advice of 10 sec in Micro and tape the heat-pad and be ok?

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks! Czar

[jeffman]

Hi Czar and welcome, As far as walk-ins I have always received the paperwork and did exactly that, Walked in. As far as I know Quest don't accept appointments. I'm out in about 30 minutes.

I didn't know that about the batch number. Mine says batch F4L-07. As far as I know 4.0 is the current batch and has not changed. You may not have a choice but to use it and I would ask them will they open the box and check the number and if no 5 You will pay for it. Nice job doing Your homework.

My microwave is pretty powerful and 10 seconds sent the temp strip off the scale and I worried about it but it was fine. The directions say up to 10 seconds. There is a video on you tube tube that says take the top off while heating and that was news to Me. I use a rubber band to secure the pad but tape should be fine except It might get sticky and I would think it could cause it to stick to Your hand and possibly have a accident like dropping the bottle.

You will be surprised how easy it is. Most everything I know and have done is in the posts above. Relax and good luck....:thumbsup:

[suzieque]

My lab also was a walk in. I had to wait over an hour, but my experience seems to be more on the high side... most of the stories i've read state about a 10 -20 minute wait.

*goes to check her QF spares for an 05 as well!*

:hippy:

20 years of drug testing and I never had an appointment for a UA. It only takes a couple minutes.

If you find a local store that has it just ask if you can check the instruction sheet for the date stamp. Just inform them there has been a change in the formula and they should return it to spectrum labs for exchange. It would have to be a 3 year old box and I doubt there's going to be much of it out there.

10 seconds nuke check the temp strip on the side. Try to get it close to 100. If you put it directly in your crotch with some tight shorts it'll stay in temp range for 2 or 3 hours. You only need to use the heat strip if you put it in your pocket. They usually have you empty your pockets so its better in the crotch.

[jeffman]

Hey Killer, While Your here, Is FBR gone?

[Czar100]

Thanks a bunch guys...

So if I just hold in crotch area no need for heat-pad?

If I get wife's pee...and just hold in crotch will that work too so I can just get this done sooner in the morning? She is squeeky clean and isnt too pleased with me jeaperdizing this job opp...but would be a trooper for me.

QF or wife?

Since you 2 are up late what would you guys do in my situation?

Thanks!

I will post here with results when I know!

I like QF but if Your wife is only on over the counter meds I would say hers is better then a friends.

I only use heat pads and some of the new pain patch's work great. (I've heard)
