Maybe I can cut down how many bottles I get.. I probably don't need 4x 500ml bottles.. maybe 1 or 2 to store nic base in the freezer... hmmmm... don't know about the others.. hard to guess how many I will need and what sizes! Thoughts?
I do really want the glass pipettes, though!

Having gone overboard a few times myself, I'm not sure I should be the one to say this, but slow down!
Lol.
IIRC, you have nic and sme flavors ordered already, correct? Try DIY the simple way first with just a few syringes, bottles, and needles. Those are items you'll likely always need, so they won't be wasted money if you want to move on to more advanced tools.

30ml glass will be useful when for storage of smaller amounts of nic, or for making larger batches of juice. I'm a long ways away from larger batches, so I only bought enough to divide and store the my first small batch of nic. When I get ready for more, I'll buy them as I need them; they aren't going anywhere.

Yeah true, true.. I've already got flavors, plastic bottles, syringes, etc.. I suppose this stuff can wait. The only thing I'm a little concerned about is storing the nic base in the plastic bottle it came in (WL) - I heard that can be bad? Maybe I can find a glass bottle or two at my local science and hobby store for the time being.

If it was bad, they wouldn't pack it like that in the first place.
They're not as good as glass, but they're not bad.

The nic won't spoil in the short term, so wait 'till you place your next flavor order and add a couple of amber rounds with the polycone caps to it.

ETA: That first sentance sounds a little condescending, but it's not meant to be that way. I only meant to point out that the folks at WL seem to know their business and wouldn't pack it in plastic if it wasn't OK to do so.

Yeah, cool, that sounds good.. maybe when I step up to a large quantity of 100mg nic I'll start getting glass.
And anyway, I think I might buy an ultra sonic cleaner next which will put me down $80.. I really want to speed up my steep time.. plus I can use it for multiple things, in addition to non-e-cig related things! So I think that'll probably be a good investment at least! That's what I'm telling myself at least :lol:

Those are some expensive pipettes you found there. Have you looked any where else?
