Step-by-Step Tutorial: Performing Dipstick Testing with Upass
Step 1: Preparation
- Shake the Upass bottle gently to ensure contents are evenly mixed.
- Warm the bottle in the microwave for 5 seconds and secure an included hand warmer against the bottle to maintain temperature (every kit includes two).
- Confirm the temperature using the indicator strip (target: 90°F–100°F).
- No microwave? Use an air-activated hand warmer: shake it to activate, hold or strap it against the bottle, and it reaches the 90–100°F range in roughly 45–60 minutes.
- Then secure an included hand warmer as normal to hold the temperature for hours.
- Keep a spare heat source on hand, see kits with Hot Sacks hand warmers included.
Step 2: Conducting the Test
- Pour the synthetic urine into a sterile container.
- Dip the test strip into the sample for the manufacturer-recommended time (typically 1–2 seconds).
- Remove the strip and gently shake off excess liquid.
Step 3: Reading Results
- Compare the strip to the color chart provided by the dipstick manufacturer.
- Record the results for analysis or training purposes.
Step 4: Maintain Accuracy
- Ensure proper handling of test materials for consistent and reliable results.
How Do You Warm Upass, and How Long Does It Stay Warm?
Temperature is the part people ask about most. Both methods below use only what ships in the kit: every Upass kit includes two air-activated hand warmers and a temperature strip.
| Method | Reaches 90–100°F in | Holds the range |
|---|---|---|
| Microwave | About 5 seconds, then re-check the strip | Secure an included hand warmer to hold it |
| Air-activated hand warmer only (no microwave) | Roughly 45–60 minutes | Up to 8 hours secured against the bottle |
| Bottle alone, no hand warmer | – | Cools below range in about one hour |
How do I read the Upass temperature strip?
The brightest green segment shows the current temperature. The working range is 90 to 100 degrees F; a blank strip usually means the bottle is above 100 degrees F.

Singles punish repeat buyers.
Most people come back. Here is what that costs each way:
Does Upass Expire? Shelf Life and Reheating
Yes. Sealed Upass kits have a 2-year shelf life from the batch date printed on the box. Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Every box is printed with a lot number and expiration date next to the UPC.
Can Upass be reheated?
Yes. A sealed, unopened kit can be reheated multiple times without affecting the formula. Microwave about 5 seconds and re-check the temperature strip.

Upass Urine, U Pass Urine, Upass Pee: One Product
Is "u pass urine" the same as Upass urine?
Yes. Upass urine, u pass urine, and upass pee all refer to the same Safeguard Labs product, in continuous production for over 17 years. U Pass, UPass, and You Pass are common misspellings, not different products. Every genuine bottle has the Upass logo embossed in the plastic, and every standard kit includes two Hot Sacks branded hand warmers; treat that as a quick look rather than proof. Upass is sold nationwide at authorized retailers, but not on Amazon or at Walmart. Online, upassurine.com is the only authorized store.
