@Dixie1954: Lithium batteries should be stored at around 3.65v or 40% charged. They are easy to check with a cheap meter or even one of those cheap vape ohmmeters. Without any meters, say from empty, you know it takes 3 hours to charge up that battery to full. Then just pull it off charge in half of the time. That will be very close to perfect.
I agree, already thinking of getting a couple more. Have watched a few You Tube videos and feeling much more comfortable now.
Yeah, that's definitely a valid concern. That's why i mentioned waiting a couple of months beyond that to wait for customer feedback ( there will always be early adapters ). My other concern is if a product is introduced before Aug 8, but is then found to have a minor issue or bug, will the vendor get to fix that issue, or will the fix turn it into a new product ? Lots of unknowns still.
I remember the summers of working in tobacco. $25 a Day for a few hours!! That's like a million dollars to a young teen in the late 70s-early 80s. The boys picked it, us girls worked the sewing machines. Then the farmer got bulk barns and us girls were out of a summer job.
+1 on what others said. Also you will want good ventilation and to be prepared for any spills. I handle 100mg on a raised-edge cookie sheet under the stove vent. Keep paper towels and plastic bag for waste on hand. Already wear glasses but add nitrile gloves. If young or elders will be in your home, search for my post on ammo cases.
In many states they will likely have to get tobacco dealers licensees after 8-8.
Some may not be able to get those because of their backgrounds.
Tried v2 and nowhere near enough for me.
It didn't have enough airflow for me to take even a restrictive Lung hit.
I may have had a flawed base buf v3 works perfectly for me.
Yes its called the Fountsin v2.
It looks like an Atty with an RDA sitting on top of it.
It has a plastic bottle that holds 5 ml of Juice. Squeeze THR bottle to squonk your coils.
I bought two of them ob Fasttech snd a few spare bottles for it.
Thats why i say prep now if you can instead of waiting for the last minutes.
What happens if you wait and
A. Its long gone.
B. Costs three times as much.
I never did.
In the spring i followed the tobacco sitter with a peg so i could put in any spaces the people on the sitter missed and I. The winter strip the tobacco. I never got sick
But i never sprayed tge chemicals to stop the suckers. And worms.
If availability drops and prices jump, we may need a "Woulda, coulda, shoulda" thread to corral all those posts before they take over the forum. I hope I'm wrong!
Hey, did you receive your order from Mr. E Liquid yet? I was thinking of ordering a couple of Kayfuns from them.
So it's not just the FDA regulations, you fear what the state(s) will do, on top of what the FDA has already done.
I just have mixed feelings about stockpiling from personal experience. I stockpiled ( unintentionally ) for most of 2014, and i now have hundreds of dollars of barely ( or never ) used equipment ( most of which are obsolete ) and liters of eliquid which i will likely never use
Don't know what to do really, but i'm leaning towards waiting at least until Aug 8 and probably a few months after that ( to get customer feedback for the newer items ), so i can decide what to stock-pile, if i chose to go that route. I'm pretty sure a lot of vendors will be rushing in with new products up until then, to buy themselves an additional two years.
There wont be any new products after 8/8.2016.
Focus only stockpiling things likely to go away.
Mods
Attys
Coils
Nicotine
Flavors for eJuice. Don't use Loran oils. My GOD is that stuff NASTY.
Possibly wire.
If you have obsolete gear list it for sale on eBay etc.
You may have sone gear you wouldnt be caught dead using but you may have the very thing Someone else wants.
Look around at all the people who prefer to use swuonkers, mech mods, old Kayfun, Orchid, etc attys.

Ding!Ding!Ding!
You know they say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result each time.

I don't think you are.
I fullg expect those that could not be bothered to prep, rebuild, or DIY Ejuice will be making the most noise.
BULL.
No Way is some maybe gonna happen U.S.A. FDA ruling going to stop the rest of the world's top vape manufacturers from pumping out new stuff.
Thankfully most of the makers are Chinese and they couldn't give a flying damn about the FDA.
I would, if I had money to bet, bet that there MAY be only one change to the current situation until at
least the end of this year. That being that U.S. based vendors will probably ask for a scanned copy of your ID or some other form or age verification. And, I don't have a bit of any problem with that.

At least those of us on the forum have warning. I feel sorry for those who only do brick and mortar. I don't think all of them are informing customers of the effects of the Deeming Regs, and they will be in for a nasty surprise. So will those who live in states with no internet tobacco sales. On 8/8, most e-cig stuff is deemed tobacco. The states will enforce this as a way to get their (exorbitant) tax money.
Needless to say, I'm stocking up now. I have no problem using the old tech until it breaks. Until this FDA nonsense started, I hadn't bought any hardware for a couple of years.
