ok if I got this right

I vape at 1 mg/ml

so one liter of 100mg/ml will make 100,000 mL juice

100,000 mL/60 =1,666.6(repeating) 60 mL bottles of juice

I consume 2-3 bottles a week (yeah I chain vape + subohm)

so that is 1,666 / 3 = 555.3(repeating) weeks

555 / 52 (weeks in a year) = 10.67 years

I am 51 so as I figure it 4 liters should do me?

Can someone check the math?
Myrany, in terms of Nic, you and I go through the same amount each week. Four liters should be just fine.

Thanks I kept coming up with radically different numbers so it is good to know I am on the right track. One more liter should see me into my 90s. LOL

Mornin, Doodles! Whose Nic do you use?
I've been using MFS, but found some 300mg liters at RTS that would break down to about 48.00 a liter of 100mg (plus pg costs which is not much) Just not sure if individuals can buy wholesale......gotta call em and find out

Ummm, ladies - this is 2016... o_O
jup she means moving the 2007 date to anything already on the market through the time this year that the deeming goes into effect

ETA at least I'm pretty sure that's what she means :lol:

Recalculating. I have enough for two years. I figured it out two ways, and two more liters should be a lifetime supply. And that is what I will order, once circumstances make it possible.

So it is :). I'm still banking on a change to the predicate date with the appropriations bill. Not that it will stop me stockpiling...

I feel pretty confident that 2016 would be out - maybe 2014 or 15 at the best. I am also pretty confident that the date will be moved.

To tell the truth - the only fair date would be the date that they made the decision, which would be 2016...

    I understand that at my age it's a lot easier to put in a lifetime supply. But even so, I'm glad now that I put in the effort to learn how to get the most out of the least.

    Bottom line; if you want your supplies to last, learn how to vape efficiently.

    For me, I probably should buy a few more of the batteries that I like while there are still suppliers in business that carry them.

    add:
    If the FDA had it's way, the deeming date would be even earlier (before e-cigs existed) They want their thumb on every product sold. BUT, the cats already out of the bag, and they can't put it back. The vaping world may be a very different place because of all of this, but it will never go away.

    What I wish the industry would be able to afford to do would be to flood the fda with several billion juice applications, and give them a logistical nightmare that they would never be able to dig their way out of. As I understand it, those products would remain legal until they did.

    Yep going to be going over my stuff today and figuring out what is really the best plan going forward. Fortunately until the last 6 months or so I have mostly used Mechs and drippers and those are pretty sustainable.

    My only question is how long will a dripping atty last? I have no way to estimate that.

    Eliminate rebuildables?

    But, the vaping community figured out how to rebuild the non rebuildables in the past - and how to refill the non refillables - at least how to stretch them a little that is. I remember when I used to get 3 or 4 reuses before I had to replace my toppers...

    Exactly. We are creative folk. :confused:

    The best option in terms of a strict interpretation of the Constitution (grandfathering) would be the date of deeming. But you know how that is.

    Well the dripper I'm using right now is 4 years old (A7 mini), and still works as well as a new one.
    (with a 2 ohm coil no less)

    Lets see, figure I've got 6,000 months worth of pre-made coils ... ya think that will be enough? :lol:

    But, the date of deeming can be interpreted back to when they started all this mess in the first place. Remember this deeming change has been in the works for years...

    The only fair date is infinity
