The “Cola” Method Taken to Another Level That Works

Thanks for the discovery. I'll give it a try!

Which of these two should I order, the Nickel-safe or the normal?

i'd say the normal.
the nickel-safe doesn't say phosphoric acid anywhere,which is the active ingredient for our application.

parapo - the 'nickel-safe' is listed as <30% phosphoric acid. No real difference apart from the concentration.

Nichrome is likely far more resilient than plain nickel; that it is widely used in heating elements indicates that.

I have just heard from Sun that he used it undiluted. There was no harm to seen to the nichrome coil.

Kinabaloo:

I read your post about the potential for the comments re: Not for new users / cleaner shouldn't be available etc... to be seen as condescending. Well...They may sound condescending but they may also save people a LOT of medical problems.

Remember that this forum isn't just those of us who post in these threads...There's a LOT of people out there who are just lurkers. They aren't even registered on the boards, they just sit back and read. All forums are like that. A lot of those people don't take the time to read things thoroughly so I'd be willing to be you that there's someone sitting at home right now thinking they can get away with soaking their atomizer in this stuff and then hooking it right back up to a battery and puffing away.

Disclaimers have to be given for a couple of reasons

1) In hopes that people will read them and realize that there's a dark side to all of this.
2) In order to protect ourselves and the forum.

I know I don't want to get served someday and end up in court because some newb who's been vaping for 4 days inhaled half a CC of Sulfuric Acid after thinking it was a good idea to clean an atomizer with the stuff.

Remember, people are not all as "gifted" as some of the people that post in these technical threads

kinabaloo, I know its off-topic (sorry mods) but I'm sure we'd all love to know - how much do e-cigs retail for in China?

[kinabaloo]

Terraphon - ok, fair enough.

[Fat B*stard]

OK mods, so whats happened to my avatar?

[surbitonPete]

There is a little bit about phosphoric acid here ..... Phosphoric acid

Have I been censored????????

[surbitonPete]

What Pete? The ice machine cleaner? What types of stores did you try?

Hi lu....I tried plumbers and DIY stores...they were the only likely places I could think of...I guess the only way to get it in the uk is online. I have found a stainless steel sink cleaner that has 5% phosphoric acid in it.......but it doesn't seem to be doing anything after a couple of hours in soak.
