Anyone ever order from VaporL? How do they stand with the community?

not very favourably, to my knowledge

i've not used them, but i know they have a .com.au address too, that they use to drop ship from china while pretending to be local

unsure on international standing

Have you seen this? Apparently those use questionable silicone


And the air you and I breathe may be questionable. That video is much like any modern news. "A source that says so and so apparently said via a source of another source." It's dumb.

I've seen that video before. He is no scientist and bears no scientific facts. He is an alarmist. He is like anyone with an opinion on YT and as you and I know there are way too many of those.

And compared to smoking cigs lol. Every day we breathe questionable air and drink questionable water. What next? My feckin' toilet paper might leach something bad? :lol:

You are likely vaping on a mod and atty that contains silicone. Your o-rings are silicone. Do you know their exact source? How concerned are you? :)

We have enough silly stupid in our world we don't need more. :D Honestly.

My one and only experience with them was terrible. I never received the item. Thankfully PayPal took the money from VaporL's account and reimbursed me. Never again would I buy anything from them.
Other people may not have had my experience though. YMMV

Go get my meds and do my darn medbox.

Massive fail on meds/medbox. I'm gonna go eat now before I get to the puking stage because nobody likes the dry heaves.

In WHAT world does a CVS close at 6 pm? Sigh. Mine, I guess. Me and Meredith are gonna go be moody together because like, we Do That and I Like It.

OMG you GUYS!!!! That show!! Mindhunter or whatever I think it is!!! There is a second season now!!! I am saving it that is how excited I am!!

I feel like all the actors are gonna be 10 years older but I bet they make it work.

Okay Meredith lets see how your life is so MUCH worse than mine this EVENING I am betting on ME for the win.

LOL.

I'll restock soonish. Have just saved for a fancy mod. Will save for WTA now. I'm outside USA, so nic can be later some time (can't spare the freezer space anyhoo)

Well so far the valium seems to be helping. However, Meredith had a good episode too-- like, she didn't sleep with anyone inappropriate and also did something vaguely ethical.

I was hopeful (but unsure) if Valium would work. It worked on the FIFITIES though, and that takes gumption. I am quite prepared to take another 5-10 mg if I need to, it's like ONE night.

Seroquel w/d is really described as the bowls of hell, though, and it kind of is.

No puking, some other end stuff though. I'll take it.

just your 200mg and 100mg nic would last me 27083.34 days, or 74yrs :D

Where do you buy 200mg nic from? India?

China. Hiliq sell it. Hsmok sell it.
I probably have bad taste in nic by most people's standard. But it is OK.

Just for fun I was looking for carto tanks to see if any exist anymore, looks like FT has a few left, Hoosier ecigs even has some boge cartos. I don't need any, but just wanted to share :) I have some nice carto tanks to use. Kat I have to tell you a black kitty showed up at my door just like the black kitty Kat carto tank :) He is now a permanent resident :)

No WAY! We konjured you up a black kitteh??? WOAH!!!!!

I guess we konjured one for me as well. This is the Mopes (Mopi, Mopey, Moopey, Mopie, whatevs), and he basically has adopted us big time.

Such a kat, this one....... :blink:

I have questions. Get yer facepalms ready ya’ll. I’m about to be “that guy”.

First off, lovely neck accessory in that video, absolutely fabulous. But, is what he’s saying true about the pinch test and if it turns white it’s because of unnamed additives? Anyone know off hand what those additives would be?

I’ve been squonk obsessed for about two months now and this is something I’ve noticed is people talking about the bottle tainting their juices and has been a legit concern of mine. Personally I don’t think it falls into the same category as an o-ring because your juice isn’t stewing in an o-ring so the exposure is still there but at a different rate as evidenced by it not tainting juice flavor. I don’t know if silicone is even an issue but in addition to figuring that out I’d like to know what the additives are. They put funky stuff in some plastics, you all will probably remember the great BPA talks of days past and nothing personal but China has a bit of a track record with using less than ideal ingredients.

I’m not saying we should sound the alarms, I do breathe questionable air (and drive so guilty of making it) and drink water from the tap but a lot of that is out of my hands. But as a person familiar with questionable habits and that understands how consequences can add up, it seems reasonable to cut out blatantly obvious ones especially if it can be done at really no compromise.

I don’t know who homeboy is in the video, don’t know what he stands for or how well he does it but, you know what I’m saying? It’s making juice taste funky, that means it’s getting to your senses and that brings a bit of a hesitation to my step, largely because I don’t understand the topic so it could very well be nothing.

Again, sorry for being “that guy” but my gut tells me maybe it’s not something to be dismissed simply because I’ve done far worse stuff too myself. Vaping is still sorta “wild west” in terms of people keeping an eye on what’s going on and that can lead to problems when stuff is made by the lowest bidder. I can see that post got 6 agrees though so I’m probably not going to make any friends posting this.

The silicone in the squonking bottles are food grade. Silicone food grade is used in baking, cupcake pans, cookie sheet liners etc so is also used at high temps with food ingredients. I think silicone like everything may have some issues, but everything does. Even cooking fried foods gives the cook a risk of lung cancer. So we have to realize risks are everywhere in some form.

No way out alive. If I left all things altered or invented after 1850 behind, using none of them, if I filtered my water to the pristine quality of nature and then if I ate only non-GMO foods without hormones or antibiotics while avoiding gluten then I could have a life span of perhaps 55 years. That would be tragic because I would have been in the ground twenty years ago and you all would have missed all of my witty posts.

When I was younger hand hair dryers had asbestos in them, we blew all that asbestos on our heads everyday! Our paint had lead in it, so did gasoline. We cooked in aluminum pots & pans. I can't believe how amazing our bodies are to clean and purge. So I am not worried about silicone :)
