    famous last words....mentol crystals in Ottawa

    I would highly suggest getting an empty dripper bottle and use the 50% crushed menthol crystal and 50% grain alcohol method. It gives you a nice strong solution that you can put in drop by drop to get the mix right. Makes it a lot easier to get it right.

    Another possible heat source

    this is definitely a good find, I think I'm going to get a few and play around with power off some cr2 batts. It says they take custom orders too, might have to send an email and see if we can't figure out a way to get the heat down to 150-200 degrees F. they make custom lengths, that might do...

    The ECA Disclosed

    I think that many people have taken my posts on this subject as ".....ing and complaining". I will say that the post made by a poster that was asking for an anti-trust behavior is what really fired me up. I'm not going to link because I feel that the OP of that thread has realized the...

    Retracting My Support (?) for ECA

    BG, I'll have to respectfully agree to disagree on this one. Anglvapin was wondering how the ban affects her personal use of this product. As with many items that have been banned for sale and marketing in our country, ephedrine for example, have always been available for use, for a long time...

    New article... Rita Chapelle quoted...

    Maybe you should get SJ to put up a TBob sticky...... "FDA has no authority over tobacco." :D It is hard for people that to grasp that FDA doesn't regulate a product like tobacco. I bet if they do actually get control like they want and are pushing for, it will fast become a different industry...

    Retracting My Support (?) for ECA

    It won't affect you at all AnglVapin. Even if you vaped with nicotine. This ban will only affect the suppliers. It is being proposed to prohibit the Marketing and sale of these items. The devices and a non nic solution couldn't possibly be banned. You'll just have to find a supplier that does...

    Retracting My Support (?) for ECA

    ISAWHIM, that is exactly what people should be doing. These will be officially banned very soon. People just need to re-purpose them. The vaporizers aren't that big a deal. They can be very easily purposed for essential oil homeopathic use, as are many personal vaporizers already are. Look at...

    The ECA Disclosed

    My problem is that they posted a "disclosure" when there wasn't anything actually decided to disclose. It's very suspicious of a trade association and they are asking for consumers to donate to help pay the costs of operating. There are a couple of them that have and are still currently using...

    Kate, I couldn't agree with you more. I am in the mindset that this is a traders association as well. I'm not sure of the quality of legal advice they are getting but this thread was a pretty poor way of going about things. Good thing outta' this is that now we know what suppliers and what...

    The ECA Disclosed

    I figured that a post by a member named ECA on a public forum "disclosing" the direction you are taking as an organization meant you had already agreed upon said direction and would most certainly be expecting lots of questions. Hence the barrage of worries and need for answers. If suppliers are...

    Buy overseas. Make sure that the company you buy stuff from declares "For Personal Use" and it shouldn't be a problem. The FDA is just banning the marketing and sale of these items from the US. It is a much more involved process to actually get possession of a substance or product punishable or...

    Yes. Get all those unverified claims off your site as quick as you can. put something like "Do to the concern of some of our customers, we are currently updating our website with many improvements in function and form. We will try to make this as small an inconvenience as possible." Come on, you...

    The ECA Disclosed

    The problem that I have is that this is looking more and more to be a trade association that is not worried about our rights or health but is more worried about their ability to sell it to us. That isn't a bad thing but this is not the way that you are presenting it to us. I think I'm going to...

    No need to worry about ruffling my feathers, Nycsublimegirl, I haven't any. But seriously, I am a supporter of many causes and this is a product that I use. I would like to see proper research done and support a group that has me and not my wallet in their best interest. When I go to your...
