It's Nude Nic, 70/30 VG. I have another gallon of nic in the freezer (top of the fridge type). Should I be worried?

With the VG in your base it will become like molasses in da freezer! Just let it sit out 'til room temp. Be sure to mix well before dispensing. No biggie!

Oops, just in time... to be too late...

While I'm asking dumb questions, here's another: My plan is to break up three liters of the nic into 8oz bottles (250ml), and the fourth liter will be broken up in 4oz (120ml) bottles to be used first while the bigger bottles stay unopened for the future. Make sense?

Right now, I figure I have enough nic on hand for 7.5 years, conservatively. That's if I don't cut the amount of nic I use along the way, which I am almost certain to do. That will get me past 70. I might wind up getting another couple liters, which would push me about 10 years out, but I'm not sure yet.

Anybody know offhand what dimension the O-rings are for your run of the mill, buy them by the pound, 510 plastic drips? I want to get some of the silicone ones off fasttech but can't read the dimensions between bad eyes, bad glasses and a pathetic ruler. Really just need the inner dimension. Thank you. :wub:

I got some from Lowes that fit my drip tips. That's Protank drip tips and various others I've picked up in shops. I assume they are all the same. At least the standard ones. Lemo and Nautilus use different rings for example.

Danco #47. OD - 11/32". ID - 7/32". Thickness - 1/16".

They aren't silicone, just regular plumbing rings. Some kind of black rubber. Maybe you can use those numbers to find the silicone you want. Or get a pack of plumbing rings first just to make sure they fit your drip tip.

Yup, makes sense. :). And get another few liters, if you can.

Well I took the plunge last night and ordered an authentic KF V5. It sounds to me like it should be right up my alley. I have always bought an authentic first with those. Then if I don't care for them I have a friend that will usually get them for less then half the price. That's since the KFL V2 but I think I'm gonna like this one then I'll think about the clones after some reviews come out. Should have it by Thurs or Fri.

This is something that happened in an assisted living center.

The people who lived there have small apartments but they all eat at a
central cafeteria. One morning one of the residents didn't show up for
breakfast so my wife went upstairs and knocked on his door to see if
everything was OK. She could hear him through the door and he said that he
was running late and would be down shortly so she went back to the dining
area.

An hour later he still hadn't arrived so she went back up towards his room
and she found him on the stairs. He was coming down the stairs but was
having a hell of time. He had a death grip on the hand rail and seemed to
have trouble getting his legs to work right. She told him she was going to
call an ambulance but he told her no, he wasn't in any pain and just
wanted to have his breakfast. So she helped him the rest of the way down
the stairs and he had his breakfast.

When he tried to return to his room he was completely unable to get up
even the first step so they called an ambulance for him. A couple hours
later she called the hospital to see how he was doing. The receptionist
there said he was fine, he just had both of his legs in one leg of his
boxer shorts.

That is weird but I paid full price they came Priority Mail Signature Required were yours discounted.
Oh no, paid FULL POP but I did choose the "free shipping" option. That can get pretty expensive to Alaska! Sorry I didn't get back to this yesterday. Things & stuff, you know. ;)

Please, please, please tell us what vendor.
Pleading the same "Things & Stuff excuse" here. :D The vendor is Heartland Vapor Products and the carrier is UPS (free shipping on this too. ;)) I got a L. from them a little over a month ago and the brown truck guy just ran up to the door, knocked and ran back to his truck before I could even get to the door. KEWL BEANS, right! This time it is supposed to be here by the end of business, Friday, so I'll keep ya'all posted. (BTW a Gal. of 100%VG weighs 12 pounds. ;) I think the USPS "Parcel Post" (7 to 10 business days on a slow barge from Federal Way, Wa.) cost was around $130!!! Don't even ask what "Priority Mail" was!!! Ya, shipping KILLS us in Alaska! :( Still, I'd much rather be HERE than there. ;)

Afternoon Everybody!!! :) :) :)

Sounds like a good plan. Just hurry up and get more nic!

You really had me going there. You let me build up my sense of dread that something bad happened to him. So, the end was quite a relief!

I just made 300ml of juice with it the other day I just wonder if it is safe. I asked ECX and they said it sounds like it is getting a little old. Or something contaminated it maybe time to get more. Maybe but not from them it is about 10 months old.
