So I bought 115ml of VG 36mg from HealthCabin along with 12 different flavours. Went to the local chemist and got some pharma grade PG. I mixed 2 parts PG to 1 part HC VG giving me roughly 12mg mix. Then I added the tiniest drop of RY4 flavour and gave it all a good shake. Loaded my e-cig and puffed at it for a while. It tasted absolutely vile !!! I then tried new batched with the same ratios just different flavour mixes. With some I added 5% flavour and with some more. Its been 4 days of non stop trial and error. Everything I mix tastes revolting. I also noticed that the HC VG is dicolouring the glass on my tank - it sort of leaves a hazy residue on the inside of the tank. I replaced the tank and within 30 minutes it started to dicolour the new tank. I have spoken with many local mixers and they all recon there is something wrong with my HC batch. What do I do - at wits end !!!!

Fortunately, there is a way to test juice for correct nicotine content. I would suggest a kit from Wizard Labs.

Unfortunately, there is no way, other than a certified lab, to test liquids for "spoiled".

I would think the vendor would really want to know about this anyway, lest they have more than one customer who received that batch. Please don't leave anybody a negative review until more inspection can be done. ! Yours could have just been in a hot mailbox or mailtruck, who knows, but chances are there were other customers who got this batch and people need to know


and hopefully, they DO keep a record of batch numbers for the nic, vg, flavorings, etc. they use. This is something I doubt most vapers are aware of, but all my flavorings and stuff from Wizard do have #s on them.

I took my HC VG to my local vape-store and asked for some advice. The juice is 10000000% BAD !!!!! HC you suck !!! The order got here in 5 days EMS so it didn't go bad in transit. This was shipped as bad stock. How sad that HC would do this.

So is there any update to this"? Has the vendor been notified?

I feel there is a requirement here to protect other vapers----unless the vendor is notified, and is able to check batch numbers, etc. then other people are at risk here for getting ill.
