All my nic liquid, even the new stuff i have yet to get will have totalled about $300. Which is $100 less than HRH and my monthly cigarette bill used to be.

There's not much evidence it degrades much even after years, so freezing it etc is likely overkill and anyway, i haven't the room. So dark wardrobe and see you later!

I thought this too, but after about a year I've noticed a change in a gallon of 6 mg base (50/50) I've been keeping in its original plastic container in the cupboard (dark in there almost all the time, other then when I open it for a sec to grab something). It's gone from completely clear to having a slight yellowy tone. As soon as I noticed this, I transferred it into old vodka bottles and put it in the freezer. I'll report back on my results and let you know if there's been any more yellowing, and also how much of a pain it is to access in it's new location.

We planned on having two kids, fine print read pregnant twice lol according to wife. We have been advised that it's best if I get "fixed" rather than her due to some medical history on her side. Anyway, thank you for the support and well wishes. I'm sure I'll be fine, but what a mental flip out today is :lol:

It's really the right thing to do - and please don't be nervous. My ex hubby had it done and didn't feel any pain at all. We were right back to... having fun... as quickly as allowed, and there was no noticeable difference in the... erm, fun. So breathe steady and we'll see you on the other side. :)

I think that is do more to O2 exposure from the repeated openings. That's why when I crack the seal on a liter I put it into 1x500, 1x250,2x120 bottles. Then I'll use the 120s, when I open the 250 I'll transfer it to the 120s, Like wise when I open the 500 I'll break it itnto the 250 and 120s.

This is so only subject 120ml at a time to repeated opening and fresh O2.

That's also why some of us buy all long-term nic in glass 120s to begin with, where the air in the headspace has been displaced with argon. And yes, it costs a bit more that way. The less O2 exposure, the better, especially if you're you're going to keep the stuff indefinitely.

You should get a used Pro tank and a spinner/twist or something as a backup for those desperation kind of moments. :D

Seriously... my backups have backups.

Wow time flies, 1 year ago today I received a Volcano Inferno kit and some grape 36mg ejuice. By day 3 I had my last analog and never looked back. Got my first reo 6 weeks later. I am so thankful for all the great people here on ecf! Not sure it would have worked out without ecf and the great people here. :thumbs: So thank you everyone for being a part of the solution!


The irony though, speaking of clackers... today I go in for a vasectomy lol kinda freaked out lol all good though, 3 kids is perfect for us; we have been blessed with twin girls (3 years old) and baby brother will arrive in a couple weeks!

And where's a good place to get that, for those of us preparing for the zombie FDA apocalypse?

Awwww no pics. Dibis! Not V procedure.
I'm glad your in good spirits, my procedure didn't go too smooth. Was in real pain for about 3 weeks. Long enough to read about the worst case scenarios on the internet. All ended up well and I agree its right up there with one of the best choices I've ever made.
So its been a week, woodshop update pics are pending I hope. Need my monthly dose of mod spectacular
