Does anyone know what % mtbakervapor juice flavoring content is by default? The flavorings description suggest to mix at 15-40% so it must be 15%? Specifically black cherry.

Also if I run out of flavoring, is it possible to make your own? I'm not too picky about taste.

I know unrelated to the thread; trying to build a stock pile that will last and last minute as well. Extremely overwhelming having to learn DIY, build your own coils stuff like that before it's too late. I've already learned so much from you nice people which has helped more than you could imagine.

Take your time and read, I would start with 5% although I have never used that particular flavor. Just make sure to get enough nic now, the rest you can learn and acquire over the next couple years.

Many (but not all) flavorings will be here. Most flavor suppliers are mostly in a food industry anyway. Take a look at Capella site. I hope their V2 version will survive, even it it is made for vaping (no diacetyl and other similar things). But you can buy many other flavors from them, just check their base (usually PG) and be sure they do not have sugars (they do have descriptions of their flavors). Many other manufacturers are also available.

How do you eat an elephant? "One bite at a time.!"

Start with coil building
Then go on to the finer points of wicking.

Get those two bites under you belt then get ejuice me up. (Ejuice calculator)

Play with tge calculator for a good week or two until you learn what information it wants.

Then make SMALL batches of ejuice like 5 ml.

You will make some horrible juices. A LOT better to toss out TINY batches than batches that are 6-25 times that big.

Start with 1/2-3/4 of the flavor. You can add more flavor later but not take it back out.

RECORD ALL YOUR RECIPES. When you find a great one use your calculator and expand everything to be a bigger batch. Take the mls of everything and multiply everything' by 6 for a 30 ml batch. I make my batches in 50 ml bottles so you would multiply everything' by 10 for a 50 ml batch, or multiply by 24 to make a 120 ml batch.

Awesome thanks again sincerely.

So as far as mtbakervapor flavoring it seems they will stop selling on Aug 4th. Will all juice vendors stop selling flavoring before Aug 8? MBV was always my go to.

And VG, PG, coils, wicks, mods, RDA/tanks will still be sold after Aug 8? I'm trying to get everything by Oct when the PA tax begins. I'll be traveling on the 8th for a few weeks so hoping I have a little time in sept to continue stocking up.

Sorry to be the rant like others...but isnt it a wee bit late to be learning about all this?
sigh....better late than never though...

I gave you a thumbs up :thumb: (because the answers are all there if anyone honestly reads through the ECF docs) but I will admit, reading those docs would be onerous to a newbie. Regardless I'm willing to bet that 80% or more of all vapers are not aware of the FDA Deeming Rules and what they mean.

Some of us worked pretty hard locally with Alderman/Commissioners/Mayors, with Congress, etc., but these arrogant and obstinate fools think they are like Gods, sitting before us laying out some kind of road paved with gold and architect with their "special and rare" intellect. :grr:

Once elected to office, we lose all of our rights in a Republic designed as it stands. I'd be willing to try direct representation, with protections for a minority class such as vapers (and others of course). Changing the US Constitution is dangerous though.

Time will tell, some shops will still be open but we have no idea who and how many. If you can stock up now, look for the sales, there are plenty going on and more to come I am sure.

I for one will be glad when this date has past and we know for sure what is and what isn't. This American mentality of extreme doom is ridiculous and what rules our country recently. Which is sad, and not how this country was founded or built. Jus sayin:confused::tumble:
Remember the Millennium scare years ago that turned out to be nothing at all

I was employed during the Y2K issue. Millions of man hours went in to checking that all systems were patched. That is probably why there were few issues.

As I'm sure this will be also. Just aren't sure what form that will take at this time. ;) Nice job smoothing that out by the way:)

If i could get one thing right this minute abd nothing else it would be NICOTINE.

without nicotine you can't get a satisfying vape.

Batteries, VG, PG, cotton and possibly wire are NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

You may have up to 3 years (but don't wait too long for mods, attys.

Check the Flavors Apprentice or High Desert Vapes so see if they are closing.

I'm by no means an expert on whatever the hell is going on here, but these are my take aways:

Buy now:
Nic base
Mods that take stand alone batteries
Tanks with coils that can be rebuilt, and the unique parts for those tanks and coil units

Can be bought later, and possibly indefinitely:
Batteries/chargers
Flavoring
PG/VG
Gaskets
Cotton and kanthal

The only thing urgent right now is Nicotine.

As of August 8 just about everything is classified as a tobacco product requiring photo ID. Can we say identity theft?

Other stuff can be picked up on eBay, Fasttech, etc.

Well I'm sure those in States like Pennsylvania appreciate your comment.

Yep, 100mg nic juice is priority #1! A few liters in the freezer like yesterday. I've got 4 & 1/2 in there now and most likely will pick up another liter.

I also recommend getting a couple dedicated RTA's.

Finally I would advise getting a decent mech or two. You don't have to learn to use them now but they are your failsafe. No electronics to crap out.

Thus why I stated it being the first and most important to get.
