Are those clear dripper bottles safe for nasty juices?

[LeoRex]

I recently picked up a couple of 10ml plastic bottles with blunt needles (these bottles)to make life a little easier with my now growing arsenal of rda/RBAs.... I have some Ecto Cooler from MBV, so it'd do a number on my Evod if I threw it in there. But are these bottles safe to store that stuff in them? There is no code on the bottom... but they are clear plastic, as opposed to the opaque plastic that the Ecto came in.

The blunt needles fit on the MBV bottle fine, so I can always use it there, but I am curious if I'd be walking into a giant mess if transferred some to those dripper bottles.

Leo....
My guess is they should work fine....
Of course, glass is a more reliable storage medium - no danger of leeching - but, then, there's the possible breakage issue....
Give MBV a call and ask a rep....they're not likely to steer you wrong - and lose a valued customer!!

Depending on the plastic, I believe they could withstand actual acid.

I have pretty caustic stuff (ie cinnamon, lemon) in plastic bottles. Some sitting for 6+ months...no problems here.

Just to clarify, the e-liquid isn't nasty per say, it's the reaction with plastic that causes the problem.

It's not the juice, it's the plastic.

Right.... it's just easier to call them "harsh", "caustic", or "tank cracking" than to add in a disclaimer that some compounds in the juice cause an undesirable chemical reaction with certain types of plastic, leading to catastrophic tank failure.

I don't know, cinnamon oil is some pretty dangerous stuff.
