On stockpiling after FDA deeming regulations

Status
Not open for further replies.

So far (knock on wood) I've not had any issues storing nic in a freezer. I have at least 3L stored in two different freezers and I am buying at least 6L more by the end of July to do the same with.

They are all Nude Nicotine Armor v2, sold in glass bottles with Argon gas on the top of the nic to arrest decay.

You have to remember, nic will not freeze at the temps our freezers get down too. At most it is going to thicken up considerably, but not freeze.

BTW2 - While doing My daily perusing of New Items on FT, I came across these...

5183100-4.jpg


$7.85 Kanthal A1 Pre-coiled Wire for RBA Atomizer (8 Specs) - 6-pack/spec / ferris wheel design box at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

If you like Kanthal, this would be a Good way to Try some Different types of coils.

And even if you Hate them All, you still have a 8 Compartment container a to use for coils or Screws of Drip Tips or Whatever.
That's pretty awesome for under $8 for 48 coils. Almost not worth making your own coils at that price.

I have over 1300 feet of wire, but at $0.15 per coil, I am going to order one just to try some different coils that I refuse to pay $10-15 for a 15ft roll of.

FT has 15% off on Sun as well....

Is it coming to you in liter bottles? Are you worried about taking it out to use it, bringing it to room temp before using it and then refreezing it? I am not being snarky or challenging you. I know nothing about this stuff and I am trying to learn. It seems like I've heard many here say we should put it in smaller bottles in the freezer. I would be thrilled to be able to keep it in the freezer in the original containers!!

You only have to break it up into smaller containers once you open one of the liters. You can leave the rest in larger bottles in the meantime.

No, it's cool.... I'm learning as I go along as well. Just started vaping Sept 1st, 2015. I'm in very deep now with all my purchases ranging from DIY to mods, and all areas related to vaping.

I began by ordering 125ml, 250ml, and then finally 500ml bottles. So I'll be using the smaller bottles first, and then cleaning and reusing them as I break down the bigger bottles when the time comes. I will not open bottles until I am ready to use them. I am not transferring them to smaller bottles for storage. They should easily last 5, 10, 15 years as is in a freezer.

I only order in 100mg/ml 500ml bottles of Nude Nicotine Armor v2 now.

Thank you!! So I take the big bottle out, let it come to room temp and then transfer to smaller bottles. I assume I'll keep one of the smaller bottles out for use in juice making. Then do I refreeze the rest of the nic in the smaller bottles?

Yup, what he said. I buy in plastic.

If you buy in liter bottles of glass, you can just throw it all in the freezer as is.

Have any of you heard of this website called reasonablevapes.com? I've never heard of them before, but they've got a deal on a Kabuki clone for $10. What do you think? Should I pull the trigger?

Kabuki Tank Clone – $10.99 - ReasonableVapes
Their "Get This Deal Now" link takes you to 3avapes. There is no feedback yet on that tank. I might try Fasttech and look for one with plenty of good feedback. As Two_Bears pointed out, you can get them at Fasttech for around the same price.

Actually $1 less.

$9.86 vs 10.99.

I do too. Because I buy in plastic bottles, not glass. Don't want to leave nic in plastic long term.
Same here. I do have a few 15 and 30ml bottles (maybe 3 of each) of 50mg NIC in plastic bottles in my freezer, but they will be used within a year or two. I have well over 3l in glass in one 1l bottle as well as 100/50/30ml bottles for long term.

I like the smaller bottles as my wife and I are currently using around 200ml of 100mg a year, so a 50ml bottle of 100mg lasts us a few months.

I have 4 authentic Kabukis and they are great. The clone in your link looks pretty good though for $10. I would check it out as you never know. I recently picked up a bunch of Ehpro Kayfun Lite Plus tanks for $5 each and they are VERY close in quality to my $100 authentics. Unbelieveably close actually, so you never know.

I laughed at this line of B.S. in the description though....
While it does use the same coils, pretty much every reviewer has stated that this produces much better flavor.

Perhaps this is just loud and clear to testament to my laziness, but I've been buying 4 250ml bottles each time I order a liter from NN. That way I only have 1/4 of a liter out of the freezer at a time, and I can just keep on using that nifty top that the v2 comes with to extract what I need with the syringe.

More expensive this way, but my eyes have glazed over when it comes to price. I will be vapin' happy "free of charge" for the next 10+ years!
