On stockpiling after FDA deeming regulations

[retired1]

I'm reluctant to buy the AW batteries because I hear they've been the most heavily counterfeited, along with Sony.

Just ensure you buy them from a reputable source and not someplace like Fleabay.

You'll never get counterfeits from RTD Vapor. 100% impeccable integrity.

That's where I got my Provari AW batteries (along with a nice charger). If at some point we can't buy from them any longer, I'll go to Orbtronics. I would not trust eBay or Amazon for batteries (among other things).

I'm really afraid you're right, @zoiDman. Though I sure hope you're wrong.

Me to. On Both Counts.

I ended up getting these. Hope they work. I wish there was some way to adapt the PVs to use flat tops instead

Shouldn't be a problem to still buy from him after the rules go down.

Okay so I just bought a couple more single 18650 mods and atomizers. Plenty of Nic juice in the Deep Freeze. July 4th will see me spending some more money

Picked up another Hcigar Brass Nemi, not for stockpiling but something I like a lot.

Not sure that there will be great July 4 sales as expected after looking around the other night. Many vendors are very low on stock already.

That works to adapt the battery to the PV. Not the other way around

I havent shared it yet, try it here and let me know if it will let you D/L it.

If you open it in Excel you will probably need to click the "Enable Editing" button in Excel.

Yup. I have a lifetime supply. Thanks.

I got it to work with google sheets, and it looks like I'm good on the nic supply, but may need to find some worthy heirs to leave the extra to. Thank you for sharing this.

Down loads and runs in excel. Thanks Mike!

Downloads and runs in LibreOffice. Thanks!!!

I agree Salem. The first few weeks after the deeming was announced I saw a lot of "not the newest" stuff marked down at fantastic prices. Looking around now, the variety of stuff marked down at great prices seems to be much less as stock has been depleted. I'm sure there will still be sales on some stuff, but unless a store is going out of business, and I don't think many will right away, I think the great sales will be harder to find.
