I don't have a story...but I do worry about what I'd do if the power went out (here in Florida) and I couldn't recharge. Now THAT would be scary! I guess a mod would be the answer?

Not that I'm paranoid about that as well, but I always have two batteries. One is kept fully charged while I vape on the other. As soon as the one I'm using dies, I plug it in, so I can always have a back up.

It was during the infamous Venom Shortage of 2013. My wife's all day vape and there was none to be had:blink:......I still have nightmares...... :ohmy:

Have you become like the others who have experienced horrors like that and keep a basement full of it so you never experience that again?

Okay, so my pet peeve is in the news again, talking about how horrible it is that vaping has become so popular and kids are trying it. Disclaimer, Mt. Baker Vapor does not sell to anyone under legal smoking age, and all our juices come with child proof caps. Now, when I was young, as soon as everyone started freaking out about something I just plain shouldn't have, it was all I wanted. So, the idea that the media is having a hay day with e-cigs seems to me to be exacerbating the issue. What are you thoughts?

It angers me also. Yellow Journalism without adequate background research. Very typical of what has become of today's social "quick info and now" trends. Unfortunately, the average person in today's society will take what the media says as fact and go with it. Education is the key in my humble opinion, and it's up to us as the vaping community to do it. The more we can educate those around us about the effectiveness and benefits of vaping with solid peer reviewed fact, the better we'll be.:2c:

Worst of all is that usually the bad information originates from those who might lose money, and sometimes they're subtle about it...like a study showing that sugar substitutes are bad. Couldn't be the Sugar industry, could it? Just as with Big Tobacco and Big Pharma.

Agreed! Tell a teenager they cant do something, they will almost always go do it because they were told not too!
And, saying that the flavors are targeted towards kids, excuse me, i cant like cotton candy flavor juice because i am 47yrs old???? :mad: Just crazy nonsense!! Sadly, now days, seems the majority of society is lazy regarding parenting their own children, at least in my area this is the case, BUT, i am completely involved in parenting my kids, and take full responsibility for parenting my kids, and they are actually adults now, 21yrs old & 18yrs old, but i still parent them, just in a different way!

I completely agree. Not to be self-promoting (okay, a little self-promoting) we have a blog series on our website called Knowledge is power and each week on Monday we post a new subject that has had scare tactic information in the news and break down the reality.

That's strange, I feel like I just hit with a hint....weird. We have started putting borders on our products on the website, almost gone means it's going to be discontinued so stock up now. Just as an FYI.

yeah.. I know.. just a few flavors too late for me on those borders..

just so ya know, so far, I haven't found a replacement company for that flavor. I'm still good for probably a year on the juice I have in stock.. might have to get a butterscotch backup.. that one looks a little low for my comfort.

One of my personal favorites is the Caramel Coffee, the standard coffee is pretty good too.

Horror story? Hopefully a fictional tale can suffice. If not my
apologies for posting it.


The Hawk Sauce Nightmare

We had returned from a trip to Virginia. My wife finally took a few days
off from work, we had a runnable vehicle and needed to retain items left
at my mom's. I got the rest of my comic book collection and had began
the process of inventorying the books.

I soon realized my tank normally full of Hawk Sauce was empty. I went to
the Mt. Baker web site. I went to order the standard 30ml bottle of Hawk
Sauce. A huge red screen glared back at me.

In bold white letter read the following message. "We are sorry to inform
you, Hawk Sauce will be discontinued eternally. This is in part to
comply to some regulations over the flavoring process. These regulations
cannot be repealed and should not be as it was found the process was
toxic for ants."

Right away, I went to the live chat. James was in the chat along with
many customers, another member of the support staff. A customer asked
what had happened. James was explaining the process affected ants
ability to follow trails, the trails they created via pheromones. This
caused the ants to die from starvation. Hawk Sauce could no longer be
allowed to be made.

As a Hawk Sauce addict, I was left realizing the dire straits of this
message. Soon a panic welled up among the addicts. There were executions
to get remaining caches of Sauce. Eventually, they came to my door. It
seems James sold out the list of addicts. This manic guy had created the
pipe and played it, luring in all the children of Hawk Sauce then, sold
us out to the mod squads who devoured any remainders.

A loud thud distracted me from the scene. I turned to look and saw my
wife smiling as she pointed to the package on the table beside me. I
realized then I had passed out from vaping too much as I inventoried
the comics. In my tank a half load of Hawk Sauce gleamed. Opening the
packaged revealed a 240ml bottle of sauce. "There was a sale and coupon
code. Figured I may as well get you, your candy for Christmas", my wife
said.

I'm afraid of what some people may do to the ants in retaliation if this story were true. Love the happy ending!

We have been posting a blog series called Knowledge is Power, where we go over specific concerns regarding ecigs and then look at the science and reality surrounding those concerns. Last Monday we posted the 3rd installment where we discussed "Nicotine - Deadly Poison or Promising Medicine?" I would love to hear your thoughts regarding the series and any suggestions for subjects you would like to see covered. http://......./1s3Ble2
