A Preview of DIY Armageddon?

[boomerdude]

RTS is down until Wednesday no nicotine. Wizard is out, no nicotine. ECx still going strong with the nic. Because they're on the west coast? How much will we be paying for nicotine when the FDA gets their claws on it and it starts getting taxed like tobacco? I'm use to paying $30-40 for 100 mg 10% 259 mls. I'm gonna stock up big time as soon as our vendors re-stock. Put some in the freezer and work my way down to 0% nic over the next 18 months. This thread is about Nicotine liquid not about politics. But, we really need to pull our heads out of the sand. Is there any question that we have become governed and not our own governors?

Definitely something to start worrying about now!

 

[vernhall]

For sure something to start worrying about! If they don't want to make a frontal assault on e-cigs they'll just do an end-run and start limiting the supply of nic and other things we need...

 

[boomerdude]

Well it's the consumables like nicotine and flavorings that expire I'd worry about. That and batteries. You can always get Kanthal and Cotton or other wick material but you just know the Tobacco lobbyists have already made studies to hand over to congress for raising taxes on. I find the intrusion of behavior modification through taxation tiring. But the thing I hate most is our somnolent reaction to having our world taken over by progressives. Hope I haven't crossed the line here moderators.

Batteries aren't going to be a problem. The batteries we use were well established in the world of flashlights before us, and besides -- they're just batteries. Nothing to regulate there. Same will go for everything but the nicotine portion, and perhaps the industry around it. For people not willing to go to rebuildables, that could be a problem -- but it stands to be seen.

Hugs my six liters of rts 100mg/ml nic base..... the post office did misplace it for five days after it said delviered not a fun feeling have six hundred dollars of stuff misplaced

 

[boomerdude]

I was thinking more of the eGo type batteries more than the mod tube IMR type. I can picture taxes and regulations on any stick or tube like battery used solely for the purpose of powering an eCig. Of course with China now running the worlds' economy they may put the nix on it. Be interesting to see big pharma and the tobacco industry go up against China's interests.

Six liters! Dude! A year from now that may be worth it's weight in gold.

I thought Nic had a 12-18 mo. shelf life? How long can it be stored frozen?

I'm really surprised RTS is out. Got an email not too long ago that they had plenty and there was a post somewhere around here too. I did get an order in and got it already. I hate feeling like I have to stock up on nic nownownow before some agency tells me I can have 4mg for 6 weeks and then I'll be all done and it's for my own good. Or whatever. The anxiety I don't need and I pretty much loathe them for it. I have been stepping down, my own body is telling me quite nicely without regulation or interference.

I don't see how they can touch flavorings though. People use them in food too.

...hey,
...I was able to buy nic fluid at mt. baker vapor...
I hope that helps... but mostly I am replying @boomerdude - that avatar is hilarious! ...and I agree about the slippery political slope..

..have a great Saturday, Cheers, ~M

Vapingzone had never run out as far as I know.

Avatar is from a silk screen done by my son-in-law. Been using it for almost 4 years.

For the most part the real frustration for me is the feeling of helplessness I get for wanting change and to getting rid of these people from the political stage. But the deck is stacked. Between the success they have in pitting the middle against the poorer class, and importing illegal voters, what can you do? This pyramid scheme has to end sometime and when it does they'll all scramble to their enclaves and then maybe we'll be rid of them. As long as they don't take the nicotine with them, good riddance.

 

[boomerdude]

Maybe because their prices are a bit much?

I panicked when I went to order from RTS and Wizards and couldn't... They are the only venders I've ordered nic from.. I ordered two liters of 36mg this morning from ecigexpress and already received shipping notification.

 

[boomerdude]

I think that more than ever we need to be checking our nicotine. Kits are cheap and it's your life. The demand is going to be high on the re-supply now that the Chinese New Year shutdown is over. Not that anyone would take short cuts in processing, now would they?

I think I'll order a couple to cover my bases.... I stick with lower nic level already for safety concerns as a mom of three... I actually have a large mini fridge with decent size freezer that is dedicated for my vape stuff in my closet/vape room but it's better to be overly cautious.

Fired this question of to WL.

They told me in small glass bottles, least amount of air space, in the freezer = indefinite

 

[opal]

just checked .. mt baker has nic juice in stock

FYI: I got 2L of 36mg for $112.00 from ecigexpress... For less then 1L @ Mt Baker your are paying more.
Is Mt bakers nic a lot higher quality? I've never had either so I'm curious...

 

[opal]

I know nothing of quality.. still kind of a noob but since I'm a 100% VG vaper, order from mt baker anyway and saw it there.. customizable, I went with it.
