(For some reason I can't get the forum search to work right now, assume it has something to do with the servers being updated)
Anyways, I'm curious if there is anything specific I need to prepare for an e-screen test?
I've been following N2's sticky and have been able to keep water that starts at 105f in my cycling shorts at around 94-96 degrees for up to an hour so far....temp is read with a digi therm once poured into a room temp plastic cup.
Thanks for any help, it is much appreciated!
What is it about the E-screen thats worrying you in regards to subbing?
As long as the sample is indeed drug-free, it will pass any kind of U/A, including the E-screen.
Since its tested right on the spot, I'm concerned about hitting the right temp as opposed to just the 90-100 degree range on a temp strip? Is there a more specific range? Will there even be a temp strip on the cup? Going out now to try to find a small enough strip to fit on my shampoo bottle.Quote:

I just took mine with a sub and the temp was at 96 when I handed it to the lady and it worked fine....
Awesome good to hear!! Any idea who is still selling Temp Strips in physical stores? Just wasted a morning going from Walgreens, to WallyWorld, to Target and no luck!! Would really like to have one affixed to my shampoo bottle for peace of mind! Too late to order one online unfortunately.
Was there a strip on the cup so you could tell it was exactly 96??Quote:

Just got back from my screening.....went in attempting to have a James Bond-esque demeanor and was dressed like Don Draper! Left the house with the sub reading 102.4 tucked in my cycling shorts and had already done a trial drive over to the clinic to do sort of a real-world simulation.
Got a bathroom to myself and through all my practice I knew my sub would pour at 94.something.....all the practice was worth it, but I was shaking too much to check the strip on the cup to confirm temp. Came out of the bathroom and the nurse wasn't even there, so all my panicking about making too much bottle noise didn't matter! She poured the sample into a vial and had me initial it, I then had to sign an e-screen document and I was on my way!
