This was a great post! Thanks for the plug.

> Technically you can “count clicks”. The dial clicks as you rotate it; a full dose is 60 clicks, so 30 clicks gives you half a dose, 15 a quarter, etc. But the pen will only deliver four doses regardless of size and then it locks you out!

Eh??? That has not been my experience at all. My Kwikpen lets me dispense any dose, arbitrarily many times. It eventually locks me out, but only once I hit the total number of clicks in the pen. E.g. the last pen that I finished (nominally 4x15mg = 60mg, 240 clicks total) lasted 257 clicks according to my spreadsheet. When it locked, there was still about a quarter of the serum left in the pen, based on the markings on the side. But I still discarded it because it had lasted me ~4 months, and it was time for a new one.

However, my Kwikpen is from Canada. Maybe the four-dose lockout is a UK thing? Did this actually happen to you, or did someone tell you it happens?
