    Vet Vaper, Newbie to forum. Help with VG reaserch

    It is Generally Recognized As Safe, for consumption. FDA has not done extensive research on inhalation of the aerosols but we would have certainly seen any problems by now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New to vaping & 5 days cigarette free :)

    As others have said you decide how you want to do it Clint. But here's one thing I did that might help. BEFORE your 15mg runs out, get some 10mg, or 12. Then if you find you are vaping too often you can sub in more nicotine. Also, your timeframe is ambitious, but I hope it works. I have been...

    Latest Status of H.R.2058? Lost in Space?

    Yeah Hulamoon, I think we have to push for changing the date to allow all current products to remain in the market. April 28th is the new deadline, and that's only about 75 days away. Meanwhile we are working on a broader bill that will reform FDA to ENCOURAGE lower risk products rather than...

    Latest Status of H.R.2058? Lost in Space?

    Not surprisingly, Congress failed to pass the spending bills for 2017. They extended spending at current levels until 4/28/17. By then, they either need to pass the bills or another continuance. Only the bills will contain the language changing the date for vapor products. The authors of...

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    Well if anyone wants to take action there is an input site for Trump administration to take suggestions. If you want them to know what Vape means, suggest they repeal the reg here: Tell Us Your Story Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    I don't disagree with any of this. SFATA has about 1,500 members. That's about 10% of all US vaping retail and mfgrs. That's how it is in virtually every sector of our economy, the few lead and the large majority rides free. We are developing and executing a strategy to first change the date...

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    A lot of people here are a little fixated on blame assignment here. In my experience that exercise is not very helpful/productive/intelligent. I never viewed this struggle as retailer versus vaper, as I thought that we were all in this against the FDA and company. But I seem to be alone in...

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    Facepalm: Shaming has nothing to do with it. Of course no one has "statistics" showing that some group is not taking an action.... but here's the only data I have - What I hear from House and Senate offices every day is that they are not hearing from real people on this issue, so they don't...

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    In 21 months virtually all products we use will be banned from the US. Probably all open systems and likely all flavors other than tobacco. Will put most mfgrs and retail out of business as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    I know how you feel brother. I'm the lobbyist for SFATA, and the retail and manufacturers are all involved and doing all they can. But when you try to motivate those actual vapers.... they want someone else to do it. Even the old guys! It's crazy! They'll stockpile $5000 worth of crap, but...

    So, HR 2058 was a great vehicle for showing support for changing the predicate date, but was never going to pass on its own. So we took the language from it, and your Rep. Tom Cole added it to the spending bill for the Dept. Of Agriculture (which includes all FDA funding). This is the...

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    We're all thrilled that Senator Johnson won! And he has written to Leader McConnell about the Cole Bishop language. But the decision on whether to allow all current products to stay on market or be banned has been postponed until March. And it will be decided by Congress. Not FDA, not the...

    FDA Any other News on Today's Court Arguments?

    I'd say it differently. "As long as the public believes advocating to their government is not part of their civic duty, things will only get worse." The sole reason we are in this predicament is that more people believe the PHealth myth that vaping is a Big Tobacco ploy to get our kids hooked...

    Official ProVari Radius Thread - Part 2

    Hey all, I have a question. I may be style-challenged as I bought a Radius in the midnight blue with gunmetal finish. Very dark, and it makes the body look black. Then, a few months later, I bought the purple, and may have had too much wine, cuz I went with the bronze finish. It looks regal...

    Official ProVari Radius Thread - Part 2

    That's a great tale HB, you never know what will come next. I use an Avocado rebuild able tank with a single alien Clapton coil on my 60watt Provari Radius. I find it vapes perfect at about 42.6 watts. I dont chase any clouds, but get TONS of flavor at that level! Glad I bought the 60 watt?

    2 thoughts: As to MacTechVprs desire to be separate from tobacco, that is the shared and ultimate goal, but if FDA succeeds in strangling out of existence 90+% of business, we won't have a prayer at that. So it is a two step strategy:1.Grandfather all current products by changing date. 2...

    FDA Sen Johnson (R-Wis) demands answers from FDA RE deeming

    Sorry, I took a vacation. Yeah, the argument to get nannies on board goes like this: There are literally hundreds of thousands of vapor products currently on the market and not subject to many of FDA rule's provisions until they apply and are approved - a process taking up to three years. If...
