New Edge Gel Packs

[Sagacious1420]

Anyone tried

out the new Edge gel packs yet? I just got some to play around w/ and was wondering if anyone who has tried it had

any dosage suggestions. IIRC, Oscar said that the phero concentration was the same as the spray, but I was

wondering how that translates to using the gel packs. So for those who\'ve used it so far, what do you

think...1/4...1/3?

the problem with

gel packs is that it\'s so difficult to squeeze out a certain amount, say 1/4 or 1/3.

Sag,

The TE phero concentration in the gel-packs is pretty close to

that of the spray, but not the same.
First you\'ve got to look at the Table of Products and realize that the

concentration figure for TE is wrong.
It should be .010% based on 2.4 mg of total pheros in a 24mL solution. The

old bottles mistakenly listed the volume as 20mL and that was the basis for the calculation.

All the gel-packs

we\'ve seen so far have the same .13mg of total pheromones in 1.5 mL of gel, so the TE gels would have the same

concentration as the SOE gels at .0086%.

Given that TE\'s phero content is reportedly 50% Androstenone, each

gel-pack would have 3.25 applications of .02mg of A-None, or 3 evenly divided applications of .021666&gt;mg of

A-None each.

Using 1/3 of a pack shouldn\'t be a problem unless you\'re also applying A-None in the form of

some other product along with it. If so, you might want to try for 1/4 pack, but I\'ll be darned if I can

recommend any good way of measuring it out other than squeezing out a whole gel-pack in your hand and dividing it

into 3 or 4 equal parts for a baseline, and then \"eyeing\" it out in the future.

Thanks

Oscar!

I was thinking that 1/3 may be too much for TE, that 1/4 may work better. I should have no problem

\"eyeing\" 1/4 of a gel pack. I\'ve had plenty of prior experience w/ Stone\'s gel packs back in the days

before I discovered LS. For example, Pherogel works best for me at 1/4 of a gel pack (1/3 is usually too much) and

I\'ve used a lot of that stuff.

I may be doing some traveling soon and wanted to have a variety of gel packs

that I could carry in my pocket, should an occasion arise. I suppose that I could carry my usual mix in my

atomizer, but I can just here it now...\"Is that an atomizer in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?\"
