I would still be worried about the same issue. Which is getting the temp right when putting it in the test cup. Im not worried about whether or not QF will work. Im only worried about getting it to a acceptable temp. Even if I had a friend pee for me before I left the house it would still be 15-30 min before I would be able to test, so temperature would still be an issue.Can't you have someone else piss for you?
It's only gonna cool down at the same rate real pee would though surely? So everybody else's must be cooler than piss temperature by the time they hand it to staff too, surely? I wouldn't put a lighter or the heat pad anywhere near the actual test cup, that just sounds too risky.I would still be worried about the same issue.

I let the water get as hot as it could straight from my faucet and my thermometer read around 110*. I dropped QF bottle inside a glass of the hot water. Got the temp to around 102* and just watched the thermometer. Its crazy how fast the temp will drop. Id say it went from 102* to around 95* in a matter of like 30 seconds or something.
If I get in there, put the QF in the test cup, and its reading too cool.... can I put the heading pad up to the actual test cup until it gets warmer?
Or what about a lighter? What if I run the flame up and down (Sweeping motions) the opposite side of the test strip?
At the moment Im experimenting with the heating pad and it doesnt put out that much heat. Just a little warmth. Im just afraid Im not going to be able to heat it up enough to where it will stay in range long enough to get out back out to the clinic people
Yea, thats true. Ive honestly only ever taken 2 tests and I passed them legit. So, I didnt really pay attention to the temp of the pee once I collected versus the temp of the pee when I handed it off 30-45 secs later.It's only gonna cool down at the same rate real pee would though surely?

Unless they test right there on the spot, temperature isn't an issue. I have personally put the clean urine in a thin walled plastic container and put it in my sock about an hour prior to my test.I have recently accepted a new job. The job is located about 2hrs from where I currently live (Relocating) and they mailed me a drug test kit to take "At my convenience" to a local clinic. At the clinic, I would give the specimen (Quick Fix) and the clinic would then send specimen to a lab of my potential employers choice.
They have an invoice saying where to bill for the test and an address of where they want it sent. Along with FedEx shipping box/concealing envelope. - This will be a NON-DOT test -
Im devising my plan now, but I had some questions and wanted some opinions.
My plan at the moment:
- Heat up QF in the microwave to ______ degrees?
- Crotch the QF
- Head to the clinic
- Let them review the paperwork and sign what ever I need to
- Pour QF into the cup
- Pee a small amount in the toilet
- Check temp
- Take specimen to clinic
Here are my questions and concerns with the process:
Can QF be microwaved and re-microwaved, for "Practice" reasons? Im not sure exactly what temperature I should try to get the QF to so it will be in range once I use it 20-30 min later.
Also, I read on another forum, if you're wanting a little bit of help with getting the specimen warmer you should pee in the cup, pour it out, and then add QF. Any truth to that? I would think dirty pee would taint the cup and would compromise the clean QF.
What if the temperature is too low once its in the cup? Could I just apply the hand warmer to the test cup and hold it until the temp is in range?
Thanks for any and all advice!
