I like 'em but I'm biased. I work with hot glass. The color definitely helps with the taste. It keeps the light out. And I like that.

I tried an experiment once. I put some 12mg Freedom in a clear plastic bottle and some in an empty Halo bottle. A week later the juice in the glass bottle tasted FAR better to me. And I used booth bottles equally for that week.

im sure the botle has its merits , i would just prefer drip tip or ideally halo should be the pioneer of the syringe method... you could have a blunt tip , tiny needle on a 30ml syringe... unfortunately i think these syringes are for enemas... we should go with two 15ml syringes i guess...


they still need to be blue glass syringes...

Okay, bottles are fine, you really need to give a an option for a non-childproof cap. This is my fault, I should have transferred some liquid, not just taken the whole bottle. Went hiking about in the woods, just shoved the bottle in my front jeans pocket, it was about 3/4s full. The childproof caps are kinda funny. After a couple uses they will unseal if you turn to much or seal crooked etc. The whole bottle leaked onto my jeans and of course, being full of sweat, bug spray etc I did not notice till I got back.

I'd love an option button for a non childproof cap. That way the person ordering it would be the one making the childproof decision.

In the meantime, I have some plain amber bottles I bought at the health food store with dropper tops, I switched the top, going to go see if I can just buy the tops but I think I have to buy the whole bottle, which will still solve by problem I guess. Spilling a good beer, glass a wine, loosing an inferior juice.....all things I could live with but loosing almost an entire bottle of torque? Very traumatic!

i thought maybe i was just putting the top on wrong , but my current bottle , i cant for the life of me get it to go on straight. im just going to get some syringes and keep a few syringes pre filled from now on , so i can meter my usage , and have a convenient way to drip without making a huge mess , plus a 3-5ml syringe will fir in the aforementioned eyeglass case...


i hope i dont get pulled over with the case open , cop would probably think i was a doper...

The bottles and the dropper are nice but I can never get the caps on straight either.

On a side note, about a week ago I picked up a bottle by the cap and proceeded to spill about 15-20mls all over my bedroom. I probably didn't have the cap on right or possibly left it open to air but it was one of those slow mo moments where I just saw the bottle elegantly flip couple of times spilling juice everywhere :(

We had brand new caps designed for our bottles, and they are now being phased into our inventory. These new caps go on nice and straight, and can be tightened good without "popping" them. We hope to have all new caps in inventory by the middle of September. Hope his helps.

I am pretty sure this was my fault and nothing to do with the design of the caps, but new caps that fit better are great! Thanks.

They actually had problems going back on straight once they were overtightened. You weren't the only one who experienced it. We like thinks to work correctly, so figured the new caps were worth it to ensure no one else would run into problems down the road again.

I don't know if this was in response to my having started this thread and the input from others in it, but either way, kudos on the responsiveness and working on improvements toward making a great product even better. :thumb:

That cap skipping a thread and sitting all crooked has always bothered me, but I guess I do have a tendency to over-tighten things.

i have done so with both of my bottles of halo so far. i have a small child , so i like the cap to be as snug , so he cant get it off if he gets to it. they used to tighten so far , then pop...


come to think of it the new bottle was fine for the first few days , then it just started going on crooked.



halo : customer service...no , really...
