    Nic Base Storage: Freezer vs. Room Temp Experiment

    Currently I'm vaping nic from MFS put in my freezer in 2015 in a 1 liter amber glass bottle. When it was time to use for mixing I transfered to 4 x 250 ml amber glass bottles. If there has been a color change it must be very subtle. It vapes fine.

    Coming from JUUL..

    Another approach is to become more flexible. For the last 4 years I vaped one rig exclusively, SV rda clone on an original Pico. Then all this trouble starts so I decided to buy some vape toys to play with in the future, like a squonker, some tanks, etc. In the process of testing them I...

    Thanks for the feedback. What source has the statistics you mentioned. I'd like to read more. I'll stockpile as though there will be interference with access to products but it's comforting to hope that I may still be able to get stuff from FT if necessary. Thanks to others about the Pico X...

    Are you done stocking up?

    Does anyone know of a good place to pick up Pico X? I'd like another of those. The improved fire button makes it easier to use with a gloved hand. I'm confident I can live with my stash for years to come. I vaped the same rda and mod exclusiively for 4 years. Now I've got some variety for...

    Are you done stocking up?

    I'm leaving hardware for long term storage new in the box for now and putting those in dresser drawers. That helps market value in the unlikely event I want to sell some stuff. The stash has more than enough hardware but I'm going to keep shopping and may be pick up something when the price is...

    Are you done stocking up?

    I pulled the trigger on some stuff from FT. Annoying that most of the money was spent on duplicates and parts instead of new toys. We could have delayed stocking to this very day and may be for some months to come but having it has given me more restful sleep. I'm glad the early stash was the...

    Are you done stocking up?

    I managed to get a couple of Pico Squeeze mods. I wanted to know the capacity of the bottle. It's higher than I thought, 8 ml after pouring out a tiny bit to make room for the tube. I like the squeeze because it's small. I've had to learn to not squeeze too hard.

    Suppose a marijuana dispensary sells THC liquid and also carries mods and atomizers that might also be used for eliquid. Does the FDA's existing authority allow them to prevent those sales? If the answer is yes they Is anyone using the Short Stop product? Might it be used to add protection...

    How can the dedicated vape shops survive if they can't sell flavored? What will survive is the tobacco shops. We have a bunch of those. One of them had to move to larger space to make more room for vape stuff. Those shops will stay in business because they sell tobacco. Then I wonder, how...

    After May 20 there probably will be some legal eliquids and may be hardware from a few manufacturers who are rich enough to do the paperwork. It may not be enough to keep most vape shops alive. In the mean time Trump will be blamed. May be he is realizing he doesn't want that distinction. My...

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    The FDA guidance somebody posted says what retailers may or may not do. It does not say anything about what the consumer can possess or whether an adult can buy for someone. Shouldn't rely on generalizations about what the law might say.

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    How you change that is vote against candidates who don't protect your interests. When it comes to my health I'm selfish (I'm not refering to the medical system). I eat what I determine is healthy for me and that would only be compromised for the sake of my nearest and dearest. I won't...

    Does nicotine only cause problems long term?

    I spent some quality time researching nicotine when I started vaping. Nic has been studied a lot for a long time. My perception is, by itself, it's about the same risk as caffine. I also looked in to PG, VG, and flavorings. Back then, 5 years ago, the anti's were trying to scare us about...

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    We could be working on the political part. What elected officials need to be opposed. How are vapers persuaded to identify the bad apples and vote against them? If there was visible organized action for that the politicians would notice even before voting. Then if we managed to dump a bunch...

    The MA attorney general is suing some out of state online sellers. I'd like to know how that works with a civil matter, extradition is only for crimes. Is she going to try to sue offshore sellers like FT? Is FT shipping to MA? All the pain seems to be expressed by the shop owners. There are...

    Deeming Regulations have been released!!!!

    The Christmas flavor ban rumor is mean spirited, a tactic to frighten shop owner and spoil their Christmas. It seems to be working brilliantly. All the focus so far has been on the business interests of the speciality vape shops. It's fine with me to have those shops but for the sake of...

    HR 4742 nic tax passes house

    The House is Democrat controlled. What more needs to be said? The tax would make a $50 liter of nic cost $2780. The Senate is Republican. That might hel. It's the President who'll get the blame for anything that severely interferes with access to product regardless of how it happens. That...

    I haven't read the federal T21 law. If it applies only to selling, not posessing, then those folks do what we've all done, stock up for a couple of years. In the mean time if T21 has already been in place in a bunch of states, does it do what they want? Shouldn't they know by now? I like the...

    Are you done stocking up?

    I use glass because it is the conservative choice but also believe breakage is the biggest risk. So each bottle goes in a zip lock bag, then bubble wrap, then another zip lock bag. My theory is, if the glass gets broken may be one of the bags will not tear and I'll be able to salvage most of...
