DIY Flavoring Thread - Part 2

It is for the 100 mg They used to only carry up to 60 mg

Right, I will say though, I wouldn't mind a little more info on the nic itself. i.e. purity. I am enjoying my review sample thus far. But after seeing what I believe happened with the nic i got from the other vendor. I will give it a bit of time before drawing a final conclusion.

Yes guys I just noticed they added that recently. The last time I looked it was only 60mg up for sale. It is a difference of 1 dollar between ecx and the other vendor I use. I might even get a discount with the code. I have only mixed 60mg thus far. However, I want to start stocking up for the zombie Apocalypse. I think I will mix it down to 25mg. Now I have to figure the costs of vg/pg.

 

[salemgold]

I use 100mg because I mix at different strengths. I make juice for a few friends. I find it easier to get to the desired PG and VG level starting at 100 mg. I am very cautious though.

 

[salemgold]

I know that many people asked linnx to carry the 100 mg stuff so I guess that he listened.

Just pm or request online. I know they have it tested and I did ask LInx questions related to this nic. Put it this way-only two vendors will I order nic from. ecx and the other we have talked about. That is it. I will never order from the little guy who buys from China and dilutes in his kitchen. I know I have told Salem but I have been poisoned once by a small vendors purchase. Last year. Luckily, I knew the signs of OD and just laid down and slept it off. I told the vendor and all they said was I can have my purchase replaced...no thanks.

The nicotine was higher than described on the bottle. It was suppose to be 50mg/ml.

okok, I'm gonna call it a night (yes I will be reading various parts of the forum, but that counts as sleep). I got 2 nic's on the way. though you may have noticed. Goodnight.

 

[salemgold]

That is beyond scary. How strong was it actually and how did you figure out that was the problem? The odd hair in my juice is one thing, but I really don't like the idea of being inadvertently poisoned due to some outfit's QC breakdown.

Was that you with the hair in the juice? That is pretty gross. I used to use BE on a regular basis so I know the sick feeling of too much nic. I have the test kit from ebay that I have used many times on my nic but since I use just one supplier and the nic has always been very accurate, I do not fel the need to test every batch.

No problem at all http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ttle-help-freezing-nic-juice.html#post2126610
It is located in the ECF Library under long term storage of ejuice

LOL, no, it wasn't me. I just saw a reference to it yesterday somewhere and read the thread. I probably shouldn't be making light of it, probably inappropriate and too soon.

I'll check into the test kit. I vaguely remember reading about it but have never looked into it before but probably not a bad thing to have around if it isn't prohibitively expensive. Thanks.

I have a friend who bought all her pre-made juice from one of ECF's most popular vendors .. in an order of 4 bottles that she received from him last year one of the bottles had a dead fly in it ... a FLY! She asked me what she should do ... LOL .. I told her to email the guy, which she did, and all he said to her was "oops, so sorry .. will send you a new bottle today". Her next question to me was "do you think I should vape any of the bottles that don't have a dead fly in them"? That is when I told her my suggestion was maybe she should start DIY

Oh yeah, ce3 update, so far, out of the 3 I have used all are working well - had one leak about 0.25ml out the bottom earlier for an unknown reason, and if laying on side they seem to leak very slowly out the bottom. I have only had them 24h now, don't quote me on any of this. The leaking when laying on side may me liquid that was already at the coil/ready to be vaped.

Hi LookMa thanks for the update on ce3. Mine that i have been using since when i went to get mouthpiece of it crack in that area which does not affect luckily.

I use their needle or one of mine similar with blunt tip so as not to break the little hole seal when filling as i think when needle comes back out it kinda closes back up. When i gave very first fill i said to myself what the heck they forgot to make the hole go all the way through ? But in hindsight i think that was there intention so when laid sideways the e-liquid will not seep out.
With each refill as of late i swipe the sealed 510 connector on my device as i notice there is a tiny amount there but not much if it is indeed juice. I've yet to get any juice through mouth piece nor gurgles im quite happy for that.

I must say i'm happy to get a week out of it and its still going and the vapor as strong as ever , i have cleaned it to date twice and when refilled i get a faint char taste but it quickly goes away.
I have 2 others opened and filled and have vaped but thats it just to see if there ok as i been useing the original one just to see how long it will last.
So in short this is reason i ordered more of these cause im for once happy unlike another product i tried .
I sure hope the quality control of the new ones i may get today are the same but it will take me a while to go through this box of 5 it seems for now.

This was before test kits were available. I ordered 50mg/ml so I mixed it to 25mg/ml I had used a few vendors nic by this time. Just my experience a hit from your vaporizer/ecig takes longer to reach the brain. When I vaped this vendors nicotine I immediately felt the action. No delayed response. Vertigo, nausea and I felt like vomiting. However, since I did not eat-good thinking on my part. The saddest thought was the vendor did not even offer I am sorry to me. He only offered a get another one free. Hmmmm I don't think so. Before I mix anything or vape I taste test my nicotine after it has been diluted. I can tell my taste and smell.

I researched the address of this not so famous vendor and it was to a shack out in the country. No office/warehouse/etc. As consumers we really need to be aware. I still have the famous BE nicotine. I had no adverse effects with it.

So what does BE stand for anyway?

Hey SV, I was just thinking of you today. I make a mix using TPA Apple and TPA Jamaican Rum that is pretty darn yummy. I wonder if you might like it since the rum is working for you?
I use 2 parts apple to 2 parts rum. It really is very good and may not be too sweet for you. I have not tried it using the FE flavors, but it may be worth a shot.

great, thank you. does sound good. may need it to hold me over until new flavors arrive. Glad to hear they have lots of new flavors in route cause I have a trust issue with other vendor.
