I appreciate your sharing the review. This development has gotten me doing some rather wild "what-iffing."

Specifically this: A non-liquid substance seems more versatile in how it could be used in a delivery device--no drip, no spill, more gravity-resistant. Plus a little, in volume, goes a long way. Suppose it could be stuffed into a thin tube, a portion of which is highly heatable metal, maybe the thickness of a ball-point pen cartridge, and that tube inserted into a reusable, heat resistant cylinder the exact size of a cigarette. Suppose further that the inner tube could be ignited by a match or lighter to heat the metal. The puffing action would (somehow) draw a bit of the gel into the hot area, and the heat and gel would last the approximate duration of smoking a cigarette. Suppose even further that without a battery the whole affair could be made in a weight more or less comparable to a cigarette, such that it could be dangled comfortably in the mouth, etc.

Put it all together with some engineering even more geared to the smoking experience than has been applied even to the e-cigarette. Could be quite a step!

I think you just described a crack pipe lmao, no that would be glass, but your way ahead of me on design ideas, all I was thinking was a box mod with a plunger, like a syringe, not a squeeze bottle. I have an occasionally working prototype but well see if e-solid makes it in the market before I look in to reproducing mine

What chemical are they using to solidify it? I will be wary, at least at first.

Amen, brother.

Flavor 10% + -
Firming agent 1.0%
Propylene glycol 40%
Glycerol 30%
Stabilizer 1.0%
Deionized water 15%
Excipient 3.0%
Food coloring 0.0001%

Unnecessary food coloring aside, I'd need details regarding the firming agent, stabilizer and excipient before I even think about touching this stuff. Also, I think it's only made in China (for now at least)

i tried id today (Cohiba 24mg). directly "dripped" on the coil of my A2 atomizer. the taste is superb, actually, like real Cohiba. it's printed on the package that it is "Extract from Pure Esential Oil" which means "squeezed tobacco", i think. it doesn't last much longer than regular liquids, and it gives the same amount of vape like PG. don't take all i said for sure, because i'm vaping it for ~20min - those are the first expression.
bottom line, e-Solid is something that all vapers should try. good luck

I am not experimenting until I know what "agents" it is using. Its one thing to vape 4 known ingredients. Its a different matter when we get the "unknowns" involved. The FDA would have a frikkin field day making anything even remotely questionable a public statement. Keep that stuff off US soil until they release the ingredients. Not to mention valid health concerns for what we are putting in our bodies.
I'll be guinea pig only to a certain degree. I see at least 3 unknowns in this item. Not worth it, IMO....

Couldn't have said it better myself.
