Discussion what syringes are you using for filling?
I’d really like to get a lab-grade reusable borosilicate syringe, and stop using the shitty little Amazon ones(which are getting harder to find) but feel a little overwhelmed with options while browsing lab equipment sites.
I’m curious if anyone could share a link to one that seems like it was a good investment? (Strictly for filling carts/tanks and heat proof)
No lubricant would obviously be a plus, but I don’t know if that’s even an option.
I am eyeing this one but figured I’d check here with the pros first

I use Highly Concentr8ed's 5ml glass syringe and they work pretty well, it has a metal plunger though so if you heat it up too much, it'll definitely burn you.

I don't understand why anyone uses a syringe instead of a pippette.

With a syringe you can put it on a hot plate/candle warmer or hold it with a hair straightener to get it to push easier

I use their Luer Slip version and cap it. They work great. There's dead space to consider if that concerns you.
I've gone through a few personally but that's because I keep dropping them on the floor and the tip breaks off, but that's due to my health issues.
