Desperate for a Replacement Juice

[cakes488]

As I'm sure many of you already know.... Nitelite Vapor well...went up in smoke or should I say vape. This has come as quite a shock to me as I just found out a couple of days ago when I checked out their website because I was running low.

I've been very happily vaping Bounty Hunter and Renegade (exclusively) for years and found no reason to stray. I DON'T WANT TO STRAY. I also don't want to be overly dramatic here but I'm absolutely desperate to find similar (same) flavors.... Can anybody help me out here???? This forum steered me to NiteLite Vapor in the first place so I have high hopes.

I appreciate any help etc....once again...desperate. Thank you.

I've been very happily vaping Bounty Hunter and Renegade (exclusively) for years and found no reason to stray.

How much help any of us can be will depend upon your answer to the following questions. Were those 2 eliquids you've been vaping MADE by Nitelite Vapor, as "in house" eliquids? Or, are they just the 2 names of the eliquids...AND there's also a manufacturer or company brand name on the bottles, too, of who actually made & supplied them to Nitelite Vapor?

If your answer is Yes to the first question...you'll be out of luck finding more. If it's yes to the 2nd question...there may be hope that someone else carries them.

@cakes488 - I did a Google search and lots of things popped up for Bounty Hunter Eliquid. I had a whole bunch of info. and links posted here, but edited it ALL out when I thought I'd found a place that still carried the originals. Turns out...it was the same site that's now closed!

Anyway, here are links to a couple places that have a Bounty Hunter eliquid, but whether it's the same Bounty Hunter...I don't know! Each place says it's made "in house" and each has a different description.

Bounty Hunter - Describes it as "Rich premium tobacco blend! Smokey notes with a strong tobacco finish."

This one seems to be totally different, as it's described as "Caramelized banana doughnuts."

I'm sure if you do the Google search for Renegade you'll probably find some places, too, as well as the others I found for Bounty Hunter but didn't link to here.

JC, good investigatory work there. Unfortunately, neither of those is NLV's Bounty Hunter, afaik. The first link offers up PG/VG ratios, whereas NLV offered only 65/35 PG/VG. The second link is a bit vague to me. Private label? Dunno what that's all about.

NLV was (may still be) offered in some vape shops, but back when PVLiquids did close their doors, and sent notification to their customers, they said that they do not have access to such a list due to confidential agreements between NLV and their distributors. It would be up to the individual distributor to authorize NLV for publication.

Perhaps the continued Google search might show something.

Anyway, well done.

Perhaps a search for those flavors as "clones" might come up with close recipes? Might be the best shot...

I too am a bounty hunter fan and was sad to see it go.theres a lot of good ry4 and custom ry4s out there just have to keep trying.a good portion of my fav vendors have bailed in the last four or five years but I have managed to find new ones not always the same or better .dont put your eggs in one basket.

The Google search results did show quite a few about clones for them. But, like all clones, how close they'd be to NLV's originals are "iffy". I don't know if the OP does DIY eliquids though, so I didn't post any links to them.

This page from PVLiquids does give the flavor descriptions of the NLV eliquids, so that might help with narrowing down which clones might be at least close. Also, lots of ECF members' reviews of them are on the page, too! NLV must have had a big following here on the ECF.

Yeah, clones are clones, and may or may not be good clones

I don't vape any of OPs flavors, so can't say if they're close or not, but if one's favorite flavors have disappeared, seems to me that diy and experimentation may be the way to go.

As the Deeming gets more of a stranglehold on vaping, many of our sources may go away. Diy and a stash of nic may be the best option.

I don't see myself doing any DIY juices unless you count a squirt of this and then a squirt of that in my clearo...LOL. But I was able to find a supplier!!!!!!!! If anyone is interested please PM me and I'll give you all the info.

But it's true...this is NOT GOOD putting all your eliquids in one basket...so I will branch out, but now it will/can be at my leisure and not out of desperation. I must say it's nice when things work the hell out...and now I shall celebrate with my depleted Nitelite stash..which will be depleted no more (I hope).

This one might be an alternative source. Reviews love it and describe a great tobacco flavor.

Depending on what happens with the FDA Deeming debacle juice vendors may find it too expensive and cumbersome to continue with all the product testing submissions required for juice approval. The costs associated with FDA submissions eat up all the profit. If the rules haven't hanged they will be required to have expensive individual testing done on all flavors at all nic levels from what I understand. If you offer a juice flavor in 6 nic levels it's a different submission process for each.

It's why most of the vaping world is looking at DIY ejuice.
