Is there anywhere to get hands-on training for something like this? Another
LC would be the most obvious answer, but for people who don't have ready
access to a supportive person with a pump depot, are there any suggestions?
Do pump companies offer them? I have simply not had enough experience with
this - I don't rent them myself right now, but do get calls where this would
clearly be beneficial knowledge to have.
