I think I have decided to go with the Nude Nicotine and their Ready For the Freezer bottles 100% nic pg based, split into 4 - 125ml bottles just to start.

My brain hurts and so does my heart. I truly did not want to see the day that I would actually think about stocking up.

Aikanae, I am like you in that I do not like wrapping coils. I do it when I have to and boy do I put off doing it :lol:

So to start, I will get the 100mg base in PG for now and think about the pre mix down the road a bit. I can always figure out percentages and all that when/if it comes down to it. Who knows what is going to happen down the road? I really hope this will all be for naught. :nun:

I figure do one order this month and another in a couple of months etc... Just before the :censored: hits the fan, then do some pre mix orders. That would give me some time to figure out the DIY thing. I have simple tastes, I have been using the same flavor for over a year without changing up, so I could probably have no problem vaping unflavored. I know many that like the unflavored.

What is your flavor?

My own vapocalypse prep is currently,

a) about 2 - 2 1/2 yrs nicotine stashed away, which I plan to double over the next several months;

b) 2 mechanical mods, so far;

c) 3 kayfuns and 2 RDAs;

d) a pretty good supply of organic cotton and rayon for wicking, and wire for coil making, though I daresay those items won't be going anywhere, as they're co-opted from other purposes;

e) a fair supply of PG and VG, though I think I need to get more PG while I can, since at least one manufacturer is doing the Overlord's bidding and not selling to businesses associated with vaping.

Other than doubling my nic stash, I think the only aspect I need to work on is probably getting a couple more mechanical mods, and of course building more of a stash of PG, since I use a lot of that. And maybe a few more drip tips, some of them metal; my plastic/acrylic/glass ones are definitely prone to breakage if I drop my mod.

I'm working on reducing the amount of WTA I use, dropping 1 percentage point a month, so I'm hoping to be done with WTA by the end of September; I do plan to keep a stash of it, for 'just in case,' so I don't ever have to resort to cigarettes just to get my brain to behave.

It is a NET from a supplier that has a forum here. Can't say more because it just isn't prudent to do so as I am a moderator and don't want to seem like there is any favoritism ;)

Ahh the price of fame. ;) I've never tried a NET but there is a thread or two on the diy forum.

e) a fair supply of PG and VG, though I think I need to get more PG while I can, since at least one manufacturer is doing the Overlord's bidding and not selling to businesses associated with vaping.

If you have item "a" the rest will fall into place, at least I operate under that premise.
It's true that DOW claims they will not sell to vapor trade but they were happy to sell to Germany during Ww2.
Regardless few buy direct anyway, buyers purchase will be from industrial chemical distributors.

Control the nic and the rest falls into place, sadly that applies to both sides of the fence.

Hmm I like the Nude Nicotine options. I could get it in the 70/30 PG/VG in 6mg in 4 bottles, with 125ml in each, ready to just put in the freezer. Already in glass.
I bought a bunch of 125ml bottles from them at 100% PG and just plopped them in the freezer.
Like you, I hope I never touch them again.

If I ever do have to touch them, it remains to be seen if I will add any flavoring.
After finally trying some unflavored, I agree with everyone who says it's pretty good by itself.

It's just a matter of how lazy I will be if that time ever comes.
:laugh:

This is exactly what I did, same PG/VG ratio as well, but in 18mg for straight vaping, although I'll end up cutting it before I use all 500ml. Talk about easy peasy. And the quality of the product is superb. My next order will be for actual long term storage stock with a higher nic concentration. Very pleased with Nude Nicotine.

I find it interesting that the people who have been posting the most towards the end of this thread...
Are also the people who spend the most time in the FDA and Legislative subforums.

Either we're all nuts, or we know something.
I'm not here to say which is true.
:)

I'll break the news for everyone else:

Ban pushed to stub out rise of e-cigarettes - The Standard

If China bans them we're all :censored:

Now I'll hide back in the media section.

All I *know* is,

a) I refuse to be pushed back to cigarettes or those lame cigalikes that BT offers; I stopped liking the flavor of tobacco about 7 months ago, and menthol about 36 yrs ago;

and

b) the gov't could screw up a wet dream; anything they involve themselves in automatically becomes twice-to-ten-times as expensive, and usually of inferior quality. I'll stick with vaping as it works for me, and they can kiss .....

Oh, and also c) my DIY is better than any pre-made ejuice I've ever bought.

So they can do whatever they like. I'll be vaping my DIY in my rebuildables.

So are you saying we are NOT nuts?
Or that the Chinese are nuts?

Or is everyone just nuts?
:confused:

Maybe I'll go join you in the media section.

Apparently the Chinese have an ANTZ problem too, people too stupid to actually study REAL SCIENCE, or to be able to tell real science from ideological ranting. But frankly I have a hard time imagining the Chinese gov't doing the slightest thing to quash their market lead on e-cig technology, even with stupid people saying stupid things about them.

Well I got to vaping 0mg nic and thought they can't touch me no matter what they "deem" but now it seems I have to stock on attys + spare parts. If China stops making them.... Oh well.

If China stops, I bet India will step in. They already have one of the largest nic companies as well.
It would be best if this was all a moot point.

My belief is that ANTZ are just shills paid by the government to prepare the public and "scientifically" justify the introduction of certain legislation that the govt already made their mind to pass. Just look where the ANTZ money is coming from.

That's really the main reason I'm doing the vapocalypse prep; I doubt very seriously they want to ban such a massive potential source of income, but they definitely want to tax it at the same scale they're taxing cigarettes -- so I'm getting my nicotine NOW while it's still cheap. If I have a 5 yr supply, that gives me 5 yrs to wean down and possibly even discontinue use of nicotine.

They can bite me.

Dark brown glass, voided of oxygen (they use inert argon). Even the caps are secured and wrapped with a white silicon like tape. Very professionally packed. :)

EDIT: Each of the 4 bottles comes sealed in an air-proof plastic bag as well.
