Nicotine: where to buy.

[sonofspain]

I'm curious if any others here have found it difficult to find pure (98-99%) liquid nicotine for sale? I've been trying off and on for a few days and have come up with zilchola. Having said that, I do know where to buy it in quantities from 6ml to 1L to 5L to a large drum, which costs many thousands of USD I'm well aware of how dangerous it is and likely the issue(s) of transport, legality, etc. I'm simply considering stockpiling what I would need if our wonderful government were to get their paws around the neck of the vaping community. Actually there's no doubt they'll screw it up for us sooner or later under the guise of safety concerns etc. o/

This really needs to go in the inadvisable forum. It's difficult to buy because it's dangerous to handle even with a hazmat suit. You're crazy to even try IMO. There is the shelf life to consider as well. It doesn't keep forever. Lessee if you use 24mg juice and you vape 6ml/day, 1 liter of 100mg will last you 69 days. 11 liters will go 2 years and that's about the shelf life.

Sorry, pure nicotine is to dagerous to be handled by the laymen and should only be handled by those trained to handle it with the proper equipment/storage/ventilation/emergenciy equipment. I have seen many post on people looking for it and I have found no one on this forum that will patricipate in helping people find it nor advise them on mixing because legal issues if somthing goes wrong.

It is dangerous. I was curious what the response from here would be on where to buy if at all. Not having found anything other than the dealer I know of and not seeing much at all here, I'm not surprised by your responses. I've wanted to come up with a way to "be ahead of the game", when not if the government makes things difficult. Every time I've run across info on nicotine, I've seen more and more reasons not to mess with unmixed liquid. I'm going to check out Totally Wicked again as I believe they sell mixed, unflavored product. I wish the company I know of could be stopped from selling and shipping it. I suspect that a teenager in their bedroom with a "borrowed" credit card or whatever could easily obtain it. I don't want to state the company details to let people know to be aware of the company as it seems likely that it would backfire and I don't want that. Thanks for the replies. o/

Pure is dangerous to deal with but you can get DIY unflavored base from MANY places, not just TW.

Box Elder, RTS Vapes, MyFreedomSmokes, BlueMist... Tons of vendors sell base and I've seen 60mgs and 100mgs for sale. That is plenty strong enough for most folks doing DIY.

Yeah. Jeez, 100mg is high. I'm still looking as to where to buy it from. Trying to get it from somewhere close geographically.

You shouldn't try to handle more than 100MG nic unless you actually are a chemist and have the proper lab.


It's in the forum rules you aren't allowed to mention sites that sell over 100mg nic.
Vendors aren't allowed to advertise here that they carry higher than 100 mg nic.
I know where you can get higher than 100mg nic but I'd never tell you because it would be stupid and irresponsible.

rts vapor and box elder are good sources of 100mg nic

I think you lost a decimal place somewhere. At the numbers assumed, 1 liter of 100mg would be used up in 694.4 days.

Ditto.

Thanks for the input. I ordered from Gulf Coast Vapor. I'll see how it goes.

It was early. I agree the numbers didn't sound right when I put them up. How did I do that?

24 mg/ml * 6 ml/day = 144 mg/dy

100 mg/ml * 1000 ml/lt = 100000 mg

100000mg/lt / 144 mg/dy = 694.77 dy/lt

Durned if I know how I did it. I'm betting I plugged in 100 instead of a 1000 when I put the number of ml/lt.

LOL, I went the other route, 1 liter of 990 should yield just over 11 gallons of 24mg nic juice or appox 41 and a half liters. 365 * 2 = 730, 41.5/730= 56ml a day you would have to use to exaust the suppiles before it went bad
Figuring on the average user using 5ml a day would equate to a 22.7 year supply if the juice did not go bad. A shame there is a shelf life So not only is it dangerous it is not cost effective! You would only have consumed 3650ml in two years allowing 37,850ml of juice to go bad.

Hubby looked like Walter White with his goggles, long plastic gloves and apron. Had a plastic sheet over the tile in case of spillage. We were mixing with 100mg. I can't imagine using the 99.9 pure nic. No way. I hope that's illegal.

We probably over did it but with the furry family walking around then licking their feet we'll repeat the process each time we deal with 100mg nic. We made a bunch of 18mg so it'll be a long while. The flavor part is fun. Still have to be careful around kids and pets but it's much more relaxed.
