yeah sorry i should have done that. Im interested in : Novocig,vaporbreak,uecigarette and tinydeal juices. those prices looks suspicious but i know that that part of the world is much cheaper so its possible that they are really selling good stuff. I just want to be sure hence the need for analysis. There must be some reliable place in uk which will do it for a fee i believe i just didnt find anything yet :)

cheers

A GC-MS analysis will cost £400 or more in the UK, for one sample, and this is just for specific contaminants. A 'full analysis' is much more expensive as you can't get a 99% analysis with just the one type of testing.

It might be easier if you ask them to test for certain contaminants. A good list can be found on the eSmoke website as they perform the best set of tests in the industry that are published (although with significant omissions). Make sure that DEG (diethylene glycol) and pthalates are tested for.

It is likely that you didn't know how expensive this testing is. It's something all vendors need to be doing - and why there is no such thing as good, cheap e-liquid. Obvious when you think about it. If e-liquid is cheap then they haven't done enough tests on it, simple as that.

Really appreciate you reply. I think £400 is something i can handle. Will look into this. Thanks again very usefull

Wouldn't you be better saving your money and buying from a quality seller - agree it's difficult to define "quality" as, unless I'm mistaaken, these liquids aren't pharmaceutical supplies and have poison/ harmful to the environment warnings emblazoned upon them :)

I'd be happier buying an entirely UK produced and tested product - I'm sure these exist?
