Glycerin

RE: Johnson Creek. That is the most screwed up logic I've seen in awhile. Maybe Macfan can post his response here, but the standard industry measurement for nicotine in liquid is mg per ml. 24mg is 24mg per 1ml. Etc. Forget any side move about content per cartridge ... what cartridge? A mini? A pipe? A Janty? Huh? That's irrelevant and stupid. Just consider nicotine strength per ml.

I see where Gunny went!

Johnson Creek behave in a very dodgy way. I don't know enough about them to say for sure but first they clog their customers atomisers, then they ignore reports of numbness caused by their juice, then they say they don't measure potency the same way as everybody else - that is deliberately misleading. They promised ingredient lists and lab reports and never followed up ... what's it going to be next ... why not share lab test results? Are there questionable ingredients in their juice that they can't publicly justify? Do they actually get that stuff tested at all?

The more I hear about them the worse it gets. The lack of communication only makes it worse, I don't think MacFan is concerned about customers on this forum, he only seems interested in US customers.

SuperCook Glycerine
Glycerine is a viscose, clear, colourless liquid with a slightly sweet taste.
It is mainly used to soften icing. It can be added to homemade royal icing to soften the icing, making it easier to eat.
Available in a 38ml bottle.

cant link to other sites yet but its on supercook.co.uk

That sounds ok Monkey but when you need some more it might work out cheaper to look at some of the sources in the UK on this thread - http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ne-source-food-grade-glycerol-people-u-k.html

right here's my idea... if someone would be kind enough to let me know if it will work?? i saw baalel was trying somthing similar, how did you get on??

i have ordered some lorann bubblegum flavour from uk supplier on ebay (its in another thread by kate i think)
and also some 36mg ejuice (normal tabacco flavour)
along with some glycerine.

the big plan is to mix em together and get some bubblegum ejuice that still has a nicotine content in it (pref about 14-18mg strength)

anyone have an idea of measurements to use??

Muchas Gracias

50% 36mg eliquid, 40% glycerine and 10% bubblegum will give you an 18mg mix. The bubblegum is quite strong in my opinion so maybe start with less and add more if needed.

Kate, you really are getting better at this math stuff.

Did you know though that human beings only use 10% of their brains capacity? Just imagine what we could do if we could use the other 60%. It would be AWESOME!

 

[Kate]

Ha, funny Tex.

It's nice when we have some good humour on the forum, sometimes we seem to take things far too seriously. Thanks for the laugh.

 

[spufmonkey]

it did make me smile during my amazingly boring day at work... wondering if my delivery from e-cigs.co.uk had arrived at home or not..hmmm

thanks for stimulating the braincell

I found something at Michael's craft shop in the candy making isle...wilton glycerine restores the consistency of icing colors...is that what you are using?

There's a patent on nicotine suppositories ... honestly.

Just soak your Fleet Brand suppository in e-liquid of your choice and take a bathroom nic break that won't set off smoke detectors! Oooooo. No thanks.

 

[SmokingInTexas]

I seem to recall a particular non-smoker who once .... offered to turn my (real) cigarettes into suppositories. Of course, I declined (I had just eaten a full meal)

I am not sure if this has been covered elsewhere on the forum but does anybody know how hot the coil in an e-cigarette gets? The reason being is that Glycerin turns into Acrolein at 280 C which happens to be a poison that may cause lung cancer. Would be too bad though cause I prefer glycerin to PG.

We have been around this in the Health section. The answer is: No worry. None. Zip. Read the latest New Zealand report.

as tb says, dont worry about it, cigarette smoke contains this chemical along with a damn site more that e cigarettes do not contain.

I have chilled out about all the stuff inside e cigarettes as I use a safe supplier for liquids and dilute them with glycerol occasionaly ultimately hoping to stop e smoking altogether and break the nic addiction.

Way I see it, unless you have any immediate reaction to e smoking then it is safer than cigarettes, also bearing in mind cigs combust at around the 1000 degrees c mark whereas an ecig cant be anywhere near that and as has been discussed elsewhere, falls short of the 280c mark.
