I wanted a proper springed peg i could reproduce without buying any springs.
if you want to source a spring then the details of the dexcom spring (cut in half) are...
Compressed size: 9mm
Diameter: 6mm
I did however use a smaller spring from an old broken peg and that worked fine also.
The spring from this peg is from the Dexcom G6 disposable applicator which is cut in half with wire cutters so you can make 2 pegs from each applicator.
compress the spring and insert from the side of the peg, be careful it doesnt ping off!
