Dr. Kurt Kistler on DIY

[puffon]

Thought I'd post this for new DIYers
It's a long one, but has great info, not only about safety.
He talks about nic, storage, flavors etc.

Highly recommended for anyone that DIY's and still excellent if you don't but like to know about the science of vaping & nicotine. I read everything that I see @Kurt post and have since I got on ECF in 2013. I've been DIYing since 5/2013 and still learned a lot from this video when I discovered it last year.
Great share puffon

It's part of my recommended reading and viewing in my blogs. Good stuff to know.

Can anyone give a general time mark for when this part (Dr. Kurt Kistler / DIY safety) begins? I can't spend 2 hours to view the whole thing, so would like to sort of zero in on that segment. Thank you!

I've been mixing for about 18 months about once a month. It's been very routine. I pour directly from my active nic bottle into a graduated cylinder and never had a spill and if there was a spill I'm not very concerned. I do have a bottle of long term nic that's higher mg than 100. When it's time to open that bottle I'll have carefully worked out steps for how I'll mix it down to 100 mg for continued storage. (The significant concern I have right now is how to make certain it's uniformly remixed before dividing into smaller bottles. I'm on the hunt for an affordable bottle roller to buy or fabricate.) My problem with the video is it's very rambly and long. May be somebody who watched it all could summerize some of the important safety points.

Good idea. We took a vote and it's you man, take one for the team! We await your synopsis

Currently I rise at 3:50 am, arrive at work at 6:00am, leave work at 6:30 pm, arrive home at 7:15 pm, eat dinner, go to bed by 8:15 pm. It's 7:30 pm, still have to eat something. May be this weekend, but probably not. They ramble endlessly. i can't sit throught that right now. When time permits I'm looking into chemistry issues related to long term storage. I think there's more to understand there.

I was teasing ya there. I understand, I don't have a spare hour or so either. I share your interest though!
