Houston, we have a problem...BE nic titration results

[salemgold]

I went to the doctor last week because my ears have been ringing - like I left a concert, and I have been lightheaded.
She said I was fine but wanted me to get my bloodwork done. I reallly need to make that appointment!

Anyway... reading this thread ... everything has just clicked.

I had just cracked open my bottle of Box Elder 48mg PG two weeks ago. I now wonder what my so-called 12mg juices really are.
My bottle is from lot 256.

Sophie please PM Kurt so that he can test it. I hope that you are OK.

Will the show be archived? If so what is the link please, I wasn't able to find it. Thanks

Look at the side bar on that site. I thought I saw some archived shows. Once again Kurt did an outstanding job

It can be done, but is out of bounds on ecf, since that stuff really doesn't belong with amateurs (including me).

I agree, It would be foolish to handle pure nicotine.

The rest of the bad samples have all been VG so far. I think you might be the first with lot 256 PG. Am I wrong?

I hope you are okay.

I believe you're right, I believe most of it was the VG batch that was bad/got the complaints.

 

[sophie_lapin]

I think it's only the VG as well.
But, since I started vaping with my PG Nic, I have had:

Light headedness
Ringing ears
Jitters
Heart racing
and Im grinding my teeth like no one's business.

Maybe it's anxiety? I don't know. But what I do know is that it started at the same time I started using the BE nic.
Tomorrow, Im going to mix up a new batch of my juices with OneStopDIY nic to see if my body changes.

To those that have offered to contribute to defray Kurt's expenses:

Please PM me for his PayPal addy.

I contacted Kurt to obtain his permission to post this and he reluctantly agreed.

Best to ya, Kurt!

This info will easily get buried in this thread. maybe you want to start a new thread for it? Just a suggestion

Thanx, I thought of that. But I also think it needs to be within this thread due to new traffic. This is the third time it has appeared thus far.

Whatever the participants think is best, I'll gladly comply.

Or maybe a helpful mod would agree to sticky it? At least for the time being...

I hope you are okay.

The 121 mg was PG, lot 257, and that person got sick.

Bump on this test procedure you can do:
eLiquid DIY Nicotine Test Kit

I think someone posted this, but the pages are flying by now.

@Salem: Sophie contacted me. Making arrangements.

@BeadyKate: PM me if you want it tested. If you want to send it back to BE, that's your choice too, of course.

I thought about that too Katya I bet that they would do it.

Yeah I heard from Sophie. Thank goodness she saw this thread.

Here is the ebay test kit too PG VG Nicotine Test Kit Bromothymol Blue .12N Sulfuric Acid | eBay

sticky it?

Do you know how many times I check the stickies?

And I don't think I'm the only one...

 

[AzPlumber]

I was thinking the same thing. The page loads and I zip right through the stickys.

 

[salemgold]

Thats true. I know alot of people and have a pretty big mouth as you can see by my post count lol so I will help to get the info out there

Another clue in this to support BE sourcing, and not downstream sabotage. So far, and I'm NOT making this up, all the too-high nic BE samples, save for one, are lots 256 or 257.

Now that scares me, my VG NIC is lot 257 and it smells way too strong for only 36mg... Glad I have 120ml of 100mg from RTS on the way... Picture of my VG nic below.

 

[Katya]

I thought about that too Katya I bet that they would do it.

Yup.

Yup.

Maybe we should just repost it in the thread, say, twice daily? Once?

I'm willing to help.

VapeTV was very good. I think we all agreed that Brad came up very very short on many concerning levels, but that what is important is to make sure the community can protect themselves, so the ebay kit was shown, and I talked about general ways to recognize the really high nic: amber, really strong smell, when even up to 121 mg is not particularly strong in smell. And of course the two lot numbers currently found to be too high: 256 and 257.

I really want to thank everyone for being so supportive. I cannot tell you how good it feels, and how much it means. People are actually donating, and from other countries now! People I don't even know! Truly I am blessed to be in such a community. This ride is just getting started, but it already, in about 48 hours, taking things to a much better place for all of us. Thank you all again.

Ok, back to work...

 

[salemgold]

Yup.

I'm willing to help. Kurt clearly needs community's support.

Help us keep it bumped and put the word out there Katya That will work I think. Most folks are looking at this thread for info.
