Cartridge replacement ridiculous
First of all is ZENO replacement cartridge really needed? I mean it seems more like the chip in it is made to tell the cartridge to stop working than "accurately provide the right about of heat". This could be a marketing plot to get us to fork more money out when it might just work fine. At the rate it is costing $0.40 per treatment without weighting in the cost of the ZENO.Found away to sorta cheat the ZENO to get more treatments out of it.I turn it on and it gets hot and when it is ready (green) I click it and before 30 secs are up I unclick it (this doesn't hurt your count) so then you leave it on the pimple and when it goes back to green ready for use click it and unclick right away...the heat is maintained because ZENO things you will re use it so it doesn't cool and I believe you get the same amount of heat on the pimple without the ridiculous counting against you.Let me know what you guys think.crocodilejcj@hotmail.com Question posted by JC Sun May 06 2007

I totally agree thats it's BS that you have to buy replacement cartriges. I figured that if it is supposed to monitor the heat "very closely" it wouldn't ever over heat. Yet in the instructions, it says it turns of after 3 full treatments to prevent overheating. Also, i tried tricking the Zeno buy using the treatment for 2 minutes and 25 seconds and then unplugging the head in hopes of tricking it into thinking i didnt do a treatment. It seemed to give me one extra treatment. So i think that the cartridge is a time limit, not a treatment limit. So For the 60 uses, i think you get 150 minutes of Zapping instead of 60 distinct uses. Not sure though. Youre way of of using the warmup time seems to be working a lot better. Thanks.

you can buy a charger from the manufacturer. They sell it on their website: myzeno.com
You'll have to click on the zeno product to get to their store & then choose parts & accessories.
My daughter lost mine & I had to buy a new one.

60 treatments, and no it does not take you scars away, and if you press to hard it can leave a scar because of the heat.

Each cartridge tip has a counter built in. Once you reach the maximum applications, the chip inside shuts down the tip. But, if you remove the tip from time to time before it reaches it's maximum number of applications, it resets the counter back to zero and you can use it as long as possible. The trick is you have to reset this before it reaches the maximum count.
