Get some Pluid....it will be the end of your search....just have to find it in stock from 301vapers or vapow.

I am personally a little concered with Pluid - always wanted to try it but the artificial stuff to give it its appearance scares me off it.

Cool looking juice and product but not comfortable vaping it.

I started vaping to cut out all the unknown chemicals (as far as possible anyway). Kind of defeats the purpose for me.

Definatly an interresting product for those willing to try it!

Its really a non issue....you would be surprised how little is in there and its GRAS ingredients. To each their own, and at least you know whats in it, unlike some of the vendor juices you may be buying.

Would you have link link that shows anything about the safety of the ingredience used? I genuinly want to try it but I am just super careful with what I vape (funny ey - I was a smoker for almost 20 years and didn't worry much).

You would have to contact Murdock, he is the maker of it, always go to the top for direct answers ;) You can also ask in the Pluid thread.

Thanks! I will check that out!

You have re-ignited my interrest in that flavor - but I have to say I am still concerned!
Its ok to be concerned about anything ecig related. I wish more people would do their homework first rather than impulse buy. Nothing to lose by asking questions, and if you decide to try it and like it, maybe I did you a favor ;)

For sure! I like to keep an open mind about things and not judge what I haven't tried or researched - this Phluid stuff has me intrigued either way I have to admit!

if you use pluid...make dang sure you have pyrex tanks with stainless caps or you will be regretting what it does to plastic.


may i suggest gumby blood from fuzion vapor as well, though be warned it also eats plastic.



And this is part of my concern. I only use clearo's (CE4's + Vivi Nova) besides dripping. Anything that reacts with plastic is no good for me.

Its the citric acid that eats the plastic. I agree with you there. If you havent tried one, RBA'a are awesome. Yeah, its a pain the set one up for the first time, but once you do, you get the hang of it pretty quick. There are some inexpensive ones you can get to try out such as the AGA-T for example (Less than $30) that is Stainless Steel and glass. If you like dripping and having a tank, its a great combo. Some RBA'a allow you to use silica or Stainless Steel wicks, I find Silica easy to set up due to not having hotspots to contend with, but SS has bettor flavor IMO.

I was waiting until I bought a Provari and then maybe get a Spheroid or a Pennelope or something like that.Thoughts?

I am just not sure about the set-up and leaking.

I have to say I am VERY happy with my Vivi Nova - just chuck them out when I feel I need to and buy heads in between.

I know they are different but I just feel they work and never yet have they leaked on me (besides once when I accidentally unscrewed the bottom of the tank instead of the battery when I was drunk lol)

I cant speak to those RBA's because I have never tried them, but have heard several positive things about the penelope. I currently am using a lavagen and it does not leak whatsoever. I have a Z-Atty Pro on the way for my Provari (potential for leaks due to the top cap design, but we shall see) and I have an iHybrid Hell Raiser on the way (same type of design). My only gripe with the lavagen is the difficulty of accessing the coil which the other gennys eliminate by using a top cap, but by using the top cap design, it may not always be pocket friendly...but then again, you cant lay RBA's on its side. Alternatively, ibtanked.com sells glass carto tanks at a VERY reasonable price.....if you like carto tanks.

Alegria, you can get a metal tank for your vivi nova, which can handle the caustic juices. There are some really beautiful colored metal ones available. Also, there is a version of Pluid without the coloring. I think they may call it Cutter....I'd have to check on that, so don't hold me to the name.
Silly me, forgot about those metal tanks....another good choice. The Pluid without coloring (cutter) is just the full flavor with 0 nic designed to reduce the strength of the full strength (20mg) without sacrificing flavor.

I disagree that it's a non-issue. I don't care if it's probably not harmful, adding ingredients that have no effect on the flavor or performance of the juice, just to sell more of it, is the issue. If people knew that Big Tobacco was adding additional ingredients (many of them also probably not harmful) when BT started doing it, they could have voted with their wallets not to buy those cigs. It wouldn't have led to a product that people can say now has over 4000 chemicals in it.

Big Tobacco adds superflous ingredients to the product to sell more product, why would we promote an eliquid that does the same? Why aren't we saying, "no, we don't want or need unnecessary ingredient." Sorry for the rant, but this issue really bothers me that so many consider it a "non issue".

I don't wish to derail the thread, and I apologize to the OP for getting off track. If you disagree with what I'm saying then yes, Pluid is a very popular anise flavor and loved by many. Many consider it their favorite juice. If you agree with my point, then there are other absinthe flavored juices that many consider better then Pluid without the addition of unnecessary ingredients, that have already been mentioned.
