EpiRite syringe with epinephrine for anaphylaxis

Hi! Has anyone had experience using the EpiRite syringe as a safety strategy with epinephrine for anaphylaxis? If so, were there any issues with the Luer-tip and attaching the IM needle?

We have also been reviewing the Epinephrine Convenience Kit that comes with a Broselow/color zone syringe & pre-attached needle.

Any information would be appreciated.

Thank you,
