Trouble with Laurier IBPs: coagulation/sticking on insulated portion

I’ve gone through my entire order of IBP probes from TES only to find that they all are coagulating tissue on the insulated portion of the probe (usually coupled with a crackle). I’m using them with an Apilus SX500, both with my own settings as well as presets (microflash 0.048s 86% for example).

Is anyone else experiencing this phenomena? Has there been a lax of QC at Laurier recently?

EDIT

My apologies for not checking recent posts more thoroughly; I wasn’t aware that the owner of the company recently passed.

After the owner passed away, I was told that Laurier probes will no longer be available, so I switched to Pro-Tec insulated (Isogard and Isoblend). With the Laurier, the insulation would break down and coagulated material would sometimes adhere to the needle. I no longer have these issues now that I am using Pro-Tec.

For what it’s worth, with your probe supply probably running low, just know that this happens because your energy level, (most likely the intensity ) is too high. Adjust your settings. you should’t hear a crackle and the debris should not stick or cause build up on the insulation. Turn it down. You can wipe the needle with sterile water to get the debris off.

I agree with Dee. The Laurier probes require less energy compare to other brands probes.
