I've been ordering nic base from the wonderful folks from wizard labs. God bless them. Anyway I really want to transfer the liquid to glass jars to avoid plastic leeching and athletes foot. Any good glass jars with good locking top air tight tops. Sadly I can't store in the freezer do to it being small and I don't want the hot pockets dealing with a nic addiction. Jars that can handle 500ml plus would be great.

HI Eric,
RTSVAPES has glass bottles, made in the USA. I believe 120ml
Or, Kurt uses euro cap ones that you can get at Specialty bottle. I placed an order for some euro caps and bottles, cheap, but the postage is high.
Not sure why you wouldn't want to put in 100ml bottles? But for the cheapest glass bottle, how about canning jars? Good luck

I just ordered a lot of DIY stuff to make my own juice, and I ended up ordering glass bottles from RTS Vapors (along with a ton of other glass things)... They have various sizes and they come in dark cobalt blue. Supposedly that keeps the light exposure down and keeps liquids from turning bad. All I can say is that the prices were good, they offer a first time purchaser discount (look for the code on their site, because I didnt notice until after I ordered), and it was packed great. Shipped and received super fast. As far as how good the bottle is, I cant really attest to that since Ive only used it for 2 days... But Im sure its good.

edit - its RTS Vapes ooops

That's why I love this forum. Thanks guys the links and leads are great and just what I was looking for. I just feel safer keeping my nic base in glass. Judgement affirmed you make a good point. I can allways separate it in 100ml units.

Yes, this forum has more info on one subject than i would have thought possible. That's what most do Eric.

I believe Salem has a link here for storage.

I purchased amber glass boston round bottles two weeks ago from Home Science Tools. I use 250 ml for storing my base liquid but they also have 500 ml and other sizes. The price is OK if you need a small number of bottles. You can buy these cheaper elsewhere but you have to buy a case. These lab bottles have the black phenolic caps with polycone liner. It's easy to pour thick VG bases from these.

Chemistry Bottles & Jars | glass & plastic Great service.

It was noted somewhere to keep multiple smaller bottles of nic so that you have less overall oxidation. I believe the person saw saying to use a glass bottle that only holds the amount of nic you would use in one "session." Though that isn't really reasonable unless you are doing large-ish batches. Still, a few 100ml glass bottles instead of a 500 will cut down the oxidation.

This is perfect and the prices are good to me. I'll most likely order from them. Thank you for the link!

Extreme Vaping uses clear glass on some of their smaller bottles. It shows off the clear and colorless qualities of XTR liquids. I have ordered 125 ml bottles from XTR that arrived in clear glass. With 250 ml the containers are little white plastic jugs: not bottles, not glass. I suspect larger glass bottles are easier to damage in shipping than plastic. Either way, XTR ships with care. The 250 ml jugs are plastic wrapped a couple of times, have a bubble wrap layer and shipped in strong cardboard boxes.
