cincy, oh
I have about 20 atomizers, 250ml of 48mg juice I cut for DIY juice, and another 100ml of preflavored 24mg. I have 5 or so batteries as well as a black silver bullet with 2 reg and 4 3v bats. Battery packs are one of the easiest mods outside of filler mods, so I'm not worried much about that.

It sounds like you have the ban shelter stocked for a good two years. I'll be in trouble after a year, less if I keep vaping at 6v.

I went nuts and stocked up. I have about the same amount of liquid, different flavors and mg's. I have 50+ 510 attys, 12 extra 510 batteries, a Prodigy, Protege, a PS Passthrough and numerous carts and chargers. I feel pretty well set up now. I am going to get one more large order of some 60mg unflavored though. I would say your good to go.:D

I have 1350 ml of eliquid and 30 atomizers and 30 batteries for the 510 and a Little Chuck. I just ordered another Chuck. I have been trying to stock up in case of a ban. Do I have enough or should I purchase more. Does anybody have more or less.



I would buy more atomizers... already appears you have enough juice :D

Yes some more attys would be a good idea. Yes 316lvm there could very well be a ban, although I think we will still be able to get stuff from China if it happens. I suffer from anxiety and "had" to stock up to be able to relax and focus on quitting the ciggies and really enjoy vaping. If the ban doesn't happen the I'm going to be paying it all forward to those in need.

Hi martha
Sounds like you're doing well.
I'm close to what you have going on with the exception of batteries. I only use 16340's so I don't see a need to stock up on those.
The only thing you might want to consider would possibly be spare parts for your PV's, switches, springs, extra adapters etc.

Personally, I think that even if e-cigs are banned in the U.S., we'll still be able to get supplies in from outside the country. It may be a bit hit or miss, and there will undoubtedly be delays. It will also likely be more expensive.

I have chosen to stock up. Truthfully, I have hoarding tendencies in the base case . . . you know you've got "issues" if you start getting nervous when there are less than 12 rolls of toilet paper in the laundry room. ;)

I have moved to mods for a number of reasons, one of them being that batteries become a non-issue. Batteries used by mods would continue to be easily accessible if there were a ban. This allows me to stock up on more atomizers and liquid. :D

I hesitate to post how many atomizers or how much liquid I have because even to me it seems excessive.

And if things really become difficult, there are alternatives out there. For example, the Iolite (in no danger of being banned) allows you to vaporize tobacco, herbs, and/or liquid with no atomizers and no batteries. It runs on butane, which is easily accessible and cheap.

How much is enough? Who knows. It mostly comes down to finances and a personal comfort level.

In the year 2007, almost 100 years after absinthe prohibition, the alcoholic spirit absinthe was once again legalized, but only those Absinthes, which contain less than 10ppm of thujone. Finally the FDA authorised Absinthe again for sale in the USA. This is a very remarkable and historic development which was accomplished by the efforts of two companies. One was and is an Absinthe producer in Switzerland, Kubler Absinthe, the other Viridian Spirits, a US based company. The two of them worked independently of each other and Viridian was the first to get the legal approval for their Absinthe Lucid, although Kubler was the first and earliest to fight for Absinthe legalization. Kubler is a small family owned distillery, it is the same distillery, that in 2005 had been instrumental in the re-legalization of absinthe in Switzerland itself. Viridian Spirits is a new startup company controlled by Jared Gurfein, a New York attorney.

Absinthe, is it illegal or legal?

I know, OT, but now I gotta go get some and try it out while I inventory my ban-stash :D

you can buy some over the counter.. but the real Absinthe is still banned it does not meet fda regulations.. only those Absinthes, which contain less than 10ppm of thujone.

I think a lot of this ban is coming from the lack of warnings that where bypassed on sales of the e-cig. Now yes it is less chemicals than analogs but they still do contain nicotine.

there is no warnings on the box or bottles of juice, no recommended dosage for intake ext.

they see it as hey here is a bottle of nicotine that is lethal in high dosages have at it since there is no indication of dosage.

so all that needs to be done is the e-cig companies need to get testing to show that they are as safe as the patch ext. and make it so sales online are done like analog sales that ensure the buyer is over 18

No offense, but it really isn't quite that easy.

And, in fact, the U.S. government is looking to halt online analog sales as well.
