The deeming FDA regulations, as is, are a worse case scenario, set to go into effect in August of 2016. However, there is already a lawsuit in place to stop the regulations from going into effect, and there likely will be many more. There is legislation yet to be voted upon which would change the current regulations. So in effect, anything could happen within the next two years.



My advice would be to plan for the worse. Stock up on what you reasonably can. Plan for the long term future and learn to build your own coils for rebuildable atomizers. Probably wouldn't hurt to have a mechanical mod in your arsenal, too. That way you are self-sufficient gear wise for a worse case scenario.

  • An essential read and referrance guide for someone new to rebuilding coils. Includes a multitude of useful links on battery safety, mod safety, coil meters, coil building, and the differences in the three types of RBA's.
  • A Beginner's Guide to Your First Mechanical Mod
    • Covers the differences between a mechanical vs. regulated mod, essential safety accessories, optional safety accessories to add layers of safety to your mech, routine maintanance, use of proper batteries, proper ventilation, low resistance vaping, and faux hybrid mods.

You could also look into DIY (do-it-yourself) eliquids. The problem with DIY is finding a source of liquid nicotine post regulations.

Wow. There's some weird answers in this thread. Believe it or not, the whole world doesn't consist of the USA. You should be able to get coils for the Naultilus Mini for the foreseeable future.

Generally speaking, what the US does, the rest of the world tends to follow.

You obviously wasn't in the US in 2007 when the FDA banned ecig products and US Customs seized all e-cig products trying to ship into the US. If not for a court order later that year stating that the FDA ban was out of line, ecig products would have ceased to exist post 2007 in the USA.

If the FDA bans Nautilus replacement coils, then they will be considered to be illegal, and US Customs will seize any shipments into the US. Now you can take your chances and try ordering online, but there will always be a risk of seizure and possible criminal action taken if US Customs finds the package.

That's easy to say sitting up in the great white north, knowing your vape shops might just be open for a little while. We know the world isn't the US, but if we live here and buy our gear here.........

Or are you offering to drive on down with our orders.......now that would be mighty nice of ya!

Lol. I can pack heat in an elementary school but I can't order coils for my vapy. Sounds legit.

I shipped a gift (Art Supplies) to Florida from Toronto ... inside was one 15ml bottle of eJuice.

They ripped open the package (ruined the Art Supplies) and shipped it all back to me with a note about the eJuice.

Anyhow, enough about my experience ... you were saying?

Ejuice is much different than coils. One contains nicotine and one doesn't. Nicotine has always been iffy when shipping across the border. The OP asked about coils.

You were saying?

I wasn't replying to the OP and his coils ... I was replying to you.

Coils or eJuice, doesn't matter ... Canada Customs plays along with the US and there is no way Canadian companies to the US becomes a viable option for products not allowed in the USA.

Even something small like I mailed, was caught.

And eLiquid is not illegal in Florida ... still didn't go through.
