Are any of you (Americans) stocking up?

[Reyth]

Ya, it looks like atties, juice and batteries basically. Unfortunately I can't afford to stock up until several months down the road due to a trip that was planned months ago. If I could I guess I would buy: 500-1000 ml nic juice, 20 bttys, 10 atties.

But thinking about it, having a passthrough might be really more economical; I wonder how many of those would be practical for a 2 year period...

Basically 2 years is all I'd have because of the nic storage limitation...

I DID read a thread where someone experimentally froze juice and thawed it. They said it seemed fine to them after that but I really wonder... :s

i wish i could afford to stock up, i just got started. i dont see how they could ban batterys and empty cartomizers. you could say their for something else, like a loop hole in the law. if some how they do manage to ban everything i guess i will start dipping again and probably get mouth cancer. great. FU lobbyists and FU FDA. the government is in bed with everyone. i wouldnt be surprised if they want us to all get cancer and die, thinning out the herd so to speak!

No they just want to find a way to control it like everything else. They want to be able to tax it so they can can get there cut.

Find a Chinese wholesaler through alibaba.com. The EMS shipping might be high but the products are so cheap that its worth it. Many sell small quantities as samples.

Be REAL careful about picking a vendor from China. You have ZERO recourse if things go sour.

Get a PT. I have one and it has been so handy. Also, imo, it is easier to mod a female usb connector to hook up to different battery for power. i'm lookingto get another one with auto adaptor and use that as dedicated driving pv.

JMHO but anything one can do as prparation is worthwhile. If it goes sour you have a little something to fall back on, although one should realize it can probably only last us a short time.
If for some reaso it goes well you will bethat far ahead in the long run and can save a few $'s by being caught up.

A friend spent the weekend. We both vape 510's, manual batteries. We went online, placed large order, and have split the supplies & cost. We saved a lot of money because we were able to buy larger quantities. We know the equipment will not deteriorate and sooner or later we will use it. Part of me feels a little silly to worry about having a little extra equipment. Part of me is So Relieved to know there is back up equipment sitting on our shelf.

We are going at it with, "Better safe than sorry" attitude.

Ordered me a bunch of DiY stuff yesterday. Got enough Nic juice to make @ least 240ml of 24mg. hoping to be at 8mg or 12mg by the end of it. So it should make a lot more the 240ml. I can mod so not to worried about batteries. Would like to have more atomizers though. So i would say i am stocked up a bit.

Get yourself a box mod or Bartleby, some 14500 batts, some nic juice, VG/PG and flavoring, some 510 attys and copy and paste this thread with pics into MS Word (or similar):

I don't think 10 atomizers would last a vaper very long. Well, they'd last me a good while considering I've got my first two atties still going strong after 5 months, and all the rest are at the 3 month mark. But I see so many experienced vapers talking about how attys only last a month tops, so, ymmv.

 

[Java_Az]

Me and atomizers dont get along very well i blow them up left and right. Although since i switched juice suppliers i seem to be having alot more luck. No more black gunk encasing the coils. only lost one since then and it was my fault really. Wasnt thinking about it ,had been sitting for a long time and picked it up vaped it dry and it died. Was also a LR so i am sure that helped it see it's fate. Not sure if it was just a bad batch or what the deal is with it. But i got a bottle of juice sitting here that is guaranteed to clog a atomizer in less the 10 drip sessions

 

[Xanax]

Yeah I've got a juice that does that. Thankfully I don't even like it. I'd be really upset if my favorite juice clogged and ruined my attys. I haven't had an atty funeral yet. I'm expecting it to be unexpected and sad when the time comes, though.

So one thing I don't understand fully is how ecigs and nic-juice are classified now. Clearly they're not classified as medical devices at the moment, which the FDA is trying to change. Are they also not classified as tobacco products? This would mean that they are not taxed like cigarettes... and it would mean that right now they are as cheap as they could possibly be because their price is just determined by supply and demand. Yea, if I understand this correctly, there is every reason to buy as much supplies and juice as possible right now

Nicotine is a drug and PV's are drug dispensers

 

[jtcaseyjr]

Nicotine is a drug and PV's are drug dispensers

By that logic, Caffeine is a drug and Coffee makers are drug dispensers...

 

[SilverStrings]

OK, but there's no tax on liquid nicotine at the moment in the US, correct?

Tylenol is a drug and a hypodermic needle is a drug dispenser, but you can still buy both without a prescription and without paying $50 like you would for Nicorette (I dont know the details but I think the markup in price must be because of the FDA) .. the relevant factor is that right now liquid nicotine and PVs are not restricted or taxed any more than over-the-counter medication and regular pharmacy products, right?

 

[hattrick]

And I thought I was going to save some money by quitting analogs

 

[mutt4a]

And caffiene is inded a drug. Indeedy, we want Nic Juice and our PV's to be regulated in the same manner as a coffe and Coffee makers..

 

[Chalie_Champ]

what if you get the liquid and freeze it untill your ready to use it?

 

[Chalie_Champ]

why are they tring to ban e-cigs anyway?

 

[sp33d]

Shouldn't they ban analog cigs before the ban on e-cigs?
