    I had one of those once, gave it up to get a Mako. batteries were more common (14500)
    BTW, ya can blame me for Jason (ENS) bringing you the SD Keyring (also made by Trog)
    I gave Jason an E-Mail from Trog about the new product he was making

    I solved the battery issue by using a Puresmoker passthrough.

    I understand, and there are others here who can share similar nic storage success stories. But most of my nic has to last much longer than 7-10 years (assuming I don't die "young"). The data just isn't out there for long-term home freezer storage because vaping is still relatively new and DIY is a niche within the vaping niche.

    That's why nic base is pretty much the only thing I worry about at this point and why it's the only thing I'd bother to buy if I could.
    Honestly I don't even sweat that too much. If all my nic failed I could vape zero nic and slap on a patch.

    And that's my long term plan B, except with gum or lozenges, not patches. But I'd rather not. Patches never did a thing for me.

    With my oldest nic, seven years in the freezer, in good shape, I expect it will be about the same in 20 years. All the oxygen in those bottles has already been used up in oxidation, so if kept sealed around zero degrees, it should be stable.

    I'm looking for 20 years on nic availability, but if I can add in the future I'll make it further. My wife's not yet 60, so I need it for the long haul.:)

    When I 1st prepared a "Lifetime" supply of Nicotine, I was using 18mg/ml. Since then I have dropped to 9mg/ml. So my stash is Now a "Two Lifetime" supply.

    And who knows? Maybe in the Future, I'll be using 3 or 4mg?

    Simular situation here, at 6mg when I stocked up on nic now at 3 mg plus and I could drop it more without issues as about half of what I vape is 0mg. I did stock extra because of a friend who is at 18mg and still uses only commercial eliquids. I figure one day she will need some.

    I have wondered how measurable the nic strength would be if you figured out how to extract it into a liquid from the nicotine chewing gum. Maybe you'd just have to see how you feel vaping it. I would think it could be macerated into either pg or glycerin.

    Vaporesso Gen S's going for a steal at CheapEjuice. Using code: "flash35now" - $25.35 for the box mod, or $31.20 for the NRG-S tank kit. Above $99 for Free S&H, otherwise $14 for the basic signature USPS shipping. Total price including the discount, must exceed the $99 cart threshold though. 4 box mods will put you just over that mark.

    **Note** People have commented that these mods have issues with the 510 plate coming loose, but the same people are likely using them to remove RDA tops/caps and pulling out other 510 objects from their atomizers. Don't do that. Take care of your gear, and it will take care of you (with the exception of some other specific brand(s) :lol:) I have 5 of these mods, but have only used a few. They've worked flawlessly so far though.
