Do you think someone would but another highly addictive street drug into the ejuice. Just curious if one day some people might get something like this, since the ejuice is not regulated by FDA. Do you ever fear something like this can happen?

I got thinking about this as i was reading some articles and most articles that are fear mongering don't bother me because i know it is just that. However the mention about how we are not 100% sure what can be put into the ejuice kinda scares me. I think i am going to just stick with the 2 suppliers that i use. To afraid now to venture out.

As for making my own ejuice, i would like to do that once at 0 nic. Which i am already feeling like 12ml is to much now and i will be moving on down very soon i think.

lol no but these articles are saying ejuice comes from china and you just never know what tobacco companies will do to try to get the word out that ecigs are bad.

I am a little scared but i know that ecigs are safer than cigarettes and my body feels that only after a couple weeks.

I am just going to have to hope that nothing like that ever happens. I was just wondering if anyone else was worried about this?

I suppose it could happen. Highly unlikely with well known liquid vendors. If something like that happened, you would hear about it within the day here on ECF. The vendor would have a ton of postings on their review/website warning people away. Not to mention they would be reported to the appropriate authorities. The ecig community is very tight knit, despite our differences on how things should be done. I trust that we will and do come together when there are obvious dangers presented to other vapers.

If you have any concerns about a vendor, check them out on ECF. Use vendors that already have a good reputation. I choose vendors by word of mouth. I will not go with someone that I have not heard of.

So to answer your question, no, I do not worry about things being put into my liquid by nefarious liquid makers.

Best solution for frightened vapers is the AR mod. The rails look like a traditional AR-15 but they smoothed out and chamfered to fit comfortably and nicely in your hand. Each mod is cerakoted black to give it that military look as well as protect your mod! This USA Made Mechanical Mod by Tac Mods USA, is the best USA Made Mechanical Mod!!!

I always worry that the brownies that the kids sell out in front of the supermarket are laced with [SOMETHING BAD]. And I KNOW those darn Girl Scout Cookies have to have something illegal in them. Also, that guy selling tomatoes on the side of the road, yeah those probably have razor blades AND drugs in them.

Why would anybody waste their drugs and give them away in ejuice when they could sell them for money? Just for funsies? You sound very concerned.

around the world rejoice! No longer do you need to spend 300 dollars a day on your habit, and you can smoke inside subway stations, bus shelters and bank machine kiosks!

In all seriousness though, no. I have never once thought about the possibility. I dont think any drug would fit the bill to be both inhalable and water soluble. So rest assured!

What if some sneaky dealer went through all the trouble to make a tincture of his favorite street drug and then gave it away with his ejuice, just to get people hooked????? I'm just asking questions.

Yes, but only the e-cigs put out by BT companies. They put the whole gamut of highly addictive substances and poisons in cigarettes, why would we trust them with e-cigs? No trust from me. AFAIC, they're already dealers.

E-liquid vendors on the other hand? I have no problem with them. Research them, ask and get opinions. The industry is doing a darn fine job of self regulating. Nothing to fear from nic/pg/vg/flavors.
