    We need a bigger boat.

    I was. ISO certified clean rooms are complete overkill for mixing niquids. Agreed. I DIY, and I can guarantee that my dining room table is not ISO 7 certified. :thumb:

    We need a bigger boat.

    I have never said that I'm supportive of massive regulations, just the opposite, in fact. The only reason I support regulations at all is because I find it difficult to stomach individuals harmed due to a business or corporate greed. Do some people earn the Darwin award that they receive? Most...

    We need a bigger boat.

    ISO controls only mean that there are written procedures and a regular, periodic internal and external auditing process for those procedures. Anyone adding significant cost because of ISO certification isn't trustworthy anyway.

    We need a bigger boat.

    You are ignoring the elephant in the room, the purpose and use of that little box: the delivery of the liquid that little box contains. If it didn't deliver the liquid you wouldn't be using it or defending it as you are. The "little box" is getting swept into the proposed regulations in an...

    We need a bigger boat.

    A) Given the CASAA survey findings regarding the efficacy of flavors, I believe that the banning of flavors is less likely now. Any studies and surveys done subsequently are going to have to be quite careful about methodology. B) I DIY so they can try to take my flavors, but I have a hard time...

    We need a bigger boat.

    Honestly, I believe that the FDA is looking for absolutely any valid scientific leg upon which to stand to support the gutting of an entire, thriving economic sector. They're grasping at straws at this point, because in my opinion their deeming is looking more and more likely to get bounced back...

    We need a bigger boat.

    You want to make a new classification; I want to make clearer sub-classification to confine the negative associations to those products which merit them. We both want the same thing. Creating a new classification might be the 'easiest' way to go about it, but then we're left with a tangled...

    We need a bigger boat.

    I don't have an objection to nicotine being classified as a tobacco product ... because it is a tobacco product. The next step for Congress is to differentiate between tobacco products, and I think they already have. The FSPTCA contains a section regarding modified risk products which is exactly...

    Exactly!

    It should be regulated in exactly the manner in which caffeine and alcohol are.

    We need a bigger boat.

    Because we don't want nicotine regulated as a drug. That would be orders of magnitude worse than what we currently face.

    House passes bill to require child-proof nicotine packaging

    I see nothing pertaining to possession ... from the bill: "any nicotine provided in a liquid nicotine container sold, offered for sale, manufactured for sale, distributed in commerce, or imported into the United States"

    Reuleaux RX200 Velocity RDA. Im BURNING WAY TOO MUCH LIQUID!

    I use .21 ohm dual triple-twisted 28g with KGD wicks at 28W on my iStick 100W and get loads of flavor. I use 10-15ml per day through my Bellus.

    Chinese manufacturers setting up American vaping association

    I think this is a very good thing, indeed. They are a bit late to the 'party' but given all factors I don't think for one second that this will go unnoticed by TPTB.

    So my doc doesn't like vaping

    Her preference is immaterial, reality is what's relevant.

    So my doc doesn't like vaping

    Tell doc to research the Public Health England's findings that vaping is 95% safer and ask for an explanation as to why smokers don't contract popcorn lung given the substantially higher levels of the suspected causative substances.

    VG metabolizes into glucose

    I remember a handful of vapers stating their personal experience of it impacting their sugar levels. Thanks for the suggestion ... I don't put much faith into unsolicited medical advice from random strangers on the internet, ever.

    VG metabolizes into glucose

    I did ... back then. Honestly, since I reacted badly to higher VG mixes, I don't remember much of what I found. Sorry. I completely agree that it's better than smoking.

    VG metabolizes into glucose

    Calories are not the primary concern for diabetics and pre-diabetics. I remember this topic from shortly after I started vaping, and since I have a strong family history of type 2 and have issues with glucose levels when I'm heavier than I'd like to be, I paid attention. It's one of the reasons...

    Intention instigation aside, what he wrote was correct.
