Yeah baby! I coughed up a few extra $ for a glass syringe with a 2" needle. (I don't like plastic and potential leaching probs etc). Feast your eyes on this beauty:

Isn't it?!? I just ordered a 4" needle, 18 gauge. Wish I could get 12-15 gauge.

I use 23 gauge with 5/8 needle and it works fine for filling most of my carts and dropping on my atomizers. The drops are nice and fine and come out well. I can't draw pg or vg from the needle but I can fill / mix with my nic juice on the back end. I usually mix 70% nic juice (varry in MG's) and 30 % VG.

I have 18 and 16 guage as well with 1 inch needles, but stuck with the finer thinner ones because I can control the amount I drip on my atomizers.

You should see my travel bag. The wifey was worried that if we got pulled over I might spend some time in the pokey. I told her as long as Nicotine is still legal in the US it wont be a problem.

First time around, I goofed and bought the 25 gauge - that wouldn't draw the pg/vg and even had a hard time drawing the e-liquid. That's a wicked looking set of syringes/needles you have! lol

Call me hardcore. I have all my fave labeled and fixed just right. A 25 guage is thin, but if you mix a small amount of PG/VG and the e juice and put in the back end (remove stopper) you might be able to push it through the needle. Maybe I should make a video of my prepping?

Two people have PM info on the trays which are easy to find if you live in the US. Think ammo trays 9 mm is too small, 45 is too big, but 40 S & W works well. I have other ideas on storage as well.

I've been using this syringe for awhile now and I can't recommend it :(
The plunger just doesn't have a smooth glide in the barrel no matter how slowly it's moved. Finally, today it completely got stuck and even an act of congress will not move it. If you're concerned about leaching, I'd have to say that spending your $$ on a box of disposable syringe/needles would be a better investment. Sux to be a guinea pig but someone has to do it.

:) lol....more of a germaphobe for me. Glass is so much easier to sterilize.

I work in the medical field (Veterinary- actually, which explains why I had a 60cc Monoject hanging around my apartment. Okay, not really, but I know I brought it home for SOMETHING once upon a time). I'm just so used to looking at syringes as disposables that it's hard to realize that people will hang onto the things long enough to need to worry about sterilization.

Though not everybody finds an un-used 3 or 6cc syringe in their pocket at the end of the day, having completely forgotten they'd grabbed it- let alone what they had grabbed it for.
