Hi all--

My latest order came, and I noticed my 4 bottles have royal blue caps on them. All my previous orders over the last 2 months had white caps. I'm relatively new to TV (but have already made 6 orders!!), so I didn't know if they change up the cap colors every once in a while. I seem to remember green caps a while ago, but I might be mixed up with another supplier...

Obviously, this is not of major concern, just wondering if everyone else has gotten blue caps on their newer orders, and if there were any other colors.

Also, does anyone else reuse their TV bottles after finishing up their juice? I haven't found an easy way to remove the label/staining of the bottles themselves.

Happy vaping all!! :)

Mine were blue too. I tried reusing a bottle with a different flavor, and that was not the best thing to do. I boiled the bottles for a while, and the old flavor was still coming through in the new flavor. I just buy the 15ml bottles from TV.
I keep my 10-15ml bottles that have nicotine in pill bottles for safety. They always end up with some liquid in the bottom. I just finished getting the AC smell out of one of them. You just have to have patience.

Wash it with soap.
Put more soap in, add water to the top, put the lid on and shake it.
Put it aside for about a week, shaking it every once in a while.
Rinse, sniff, repeat as needed. Alternate soap scents if possible.

I don't know if it would get AC out of the soft squeeze bottles, but it works with milder flavors.

The caps are slightly different in shape too, kind of pointy...

I like the blue tops classy! Goes well with the website colors and logo. I hope he keeps them blue. Wonder if he's considered darker colored bottles to lower sun exposure?


that would be good, but since tv liquids are perishable anyway, would it matter? i like the blue caps too, but am happy with whatever colors keep the price down. lol.

got my new blue tops, cool :) I'm not a huge fan of the dropper tops on the TV bottles , they seem to get leaky after a lot of usage, so I usually just transfer what I need to a smaller 3 or 5 ml bottle and store the rest

Yeah I'm not a big fan of the dripper tips either. They get reallllu messy and seem to leak while the cap is sealed on top of them. I've gotten into the habit of thoroughly wiping off the tip after dripping. Seems to keep it cleaner but still have some leaking problems while the cap is sealed. Also every one of my tips has cracked vertically about this - much minus 2 bottles. Has anyone else's bottle dripper tips cracked?

A couple of mine have tiny cracks. Most don't. When I empty the ones with a crack, I toss it.

It doesn't really bother me because I don't use TV's bottles for refilling my cartos. I really like the needle-nose dripper but even the 1 ounce ones are too big for me to have good control while I'm dripping (and I tend to flood stuff so I don't need to add a reason to do so.) The one ounce bottles don't fit in the glucometer case I carry. And if I bring use the one ounce bottles for refilling, they tend to take over the living room. So I transfer liquid into 15ml bottles and use them for refilling.
