Juice and tanks melting?

[reddrank]

I am looking for some juice fast because we are almost out and browsing mount baker. I keep seeing some reviews that the juice melted their tank What?! I haven't heard of this until now! What juices should I be on the look out for that would cause this?

Also, how do you tell if they are light colored? Because I keep reading too the dark ones messed up the novas- which I am getting.

Here's a list in the making:

Seems like cinnamon and citric flavors are most to blame.

Nice post with supplying that link, Boiler.

What juice delivery devices are you using on your batteries, Reddrank? You don't have to worry about using those flavors if you are using metal cartomizers. Certain specific flavors have a chemical reaction with the clear plastic called polycarbonate, and breaks down its polymeres to the point that the plastic will crack or even melt.

Those juices are safe to vape, but only in the appropriate materials, such as pyrex glass tanks, polypropylene plastic tanks (frosted, like medical syringes are made of), and metal tanks.

Don't put flavors on that list in a clearomizer or vivi nova tank (unless it is one with the completely metal tube, the metal tubes with the plastic window to see your juice is still made of polycarbonate plastic, which is the same plastic that clearomizers use).
