UK regulation of eliquid

[rlorange]

7.5% of weight Nicotine is 75mg per 1g which is pretty close to 75mg per 1ml so even the 36mg liquid is only around half the concentration needed to qualify as a poison, I am curious because I wonder if this is the same limit that applies in Australia? If so then the government just lost their reason for the ban

Umm, when you look at the calculations, there is no way. The Wicked e-liquid shows that there is less than 3% nicotine in the bottle. This is why you label the bottle in the first place.

Nicotine's weight is 1.01 g/cm3
Water is 1.0 g/cm3.
PG is .96527 g/cm3 (http://www.simetric.co.uk/si_liquids.htm Somebody check my calc please)

As you can see, the .01 is not very significant.

The UK government is prompting you into fear. Just be careful when the tests take place...make sure it is at a temperature that is below 100C since the water will evaporate before the nicotine.

I imagine very shortly all sellers will be doing this.

Cheers Keef. I've seen them now. Those child proof bottles are a pain in the arse to find in the uk though.

Anyone willing to experiment....?

I actually got some e-liquid on one of my mouthpieces yesterday, and I thought it had Bitrex in it...at least it TASTED like it did...that crap was FOUL! And it took forever to get the taste out of my mouth, too...

Many thanks
