On stockpiling after FDA deeming regulations

[YKruss]

Origin vape just emailed me to say they are refunding me as they did not have enough stock to cover my order for the 3ml Aromamizer v2

Sorry, looks like I had a faster hand and grabbed the last 2 right after mikepetro told us about this sale.
And yes, I received a shipment notification.

Sorry again.

Was anyone that got in on the Lightning Vapes wire sale yesterday asked at checkout to fill out an age verification form?
I was not, but I received an email from them today directing me to this new policy and form which includes having to upload a copy of your drivers license or passport or an alternative adult signature with ID at delivery for an extra charge.
I wonder how they are handling their Amazon customers sales.


ETA: I understand now it is just for certain items so far such as eliquids and coil heads.

Me too. I ordered a couple a liters a few months ago to add to what I already had in the freezer and said "I'm done. I have enough to last a lifetime". I just added 2 more liters to my stash. I just couldn't help myself.

So far I've resisted adding another liter, but these sales are making it really hard.

I got that same email shortly after my order was shipped,but i don't buy juice or premade coils from them,only wire,so i just deleted the email.

When my first nic and flavor order came in, I stopped at Tractor Supply on the way home for a couple syringes and needles.

We can, so I already had plenty of serviceable glassware around.

As I got a couple mixes under my belt, I started getting an idea of what else I'd actually need, and have added a few flasks and beakers (in sizes that made sense after I'd mixed some) to my Amazon cart when ordering.

I've now got something I want to mix in 50mL or larger batches, and have a PC fan and a couple magnetic stir bars on their way - like $10 investment.

I've already got the potentiometers laying around to make the fan variable-speed, and my bench breadboard is rigged for the standard guitar-pedal sized barrel power-adapters, so I figure I'll mount one of those in the fan, and be able to run it on my bench power supply.

I'll have a damned capable magnetic mixing plate, up and running this weekend, for less than $15 in parts.

I'm sure I have less than $60 in DIY hardware, including the tool box I keep it in, and it is plenty good-enough kit.

I just built one of those magnetic stirrers, and here's my experience if you're interested:

Don't bother with the speed control pot - normal ones can't take the wattage and burn out quite fast.

You may have read not to remove the fan blades because it will upset the balance of the fan. Believe me, adding the magnets to the fan upsets the balance a whole lot more than removing the blades ever could - it will still be fine.
Removing the blades gave me so much room inside that I was able to use the fan frame as the case of the device - I just added a top and a bottom.

Only use a fan that will run off around 5v.
Many 12v pc fans will not turn at lower voltages, and this means that running off a lower voltage to slow it down (or using a potentiometer) won't work.
I had four old fans to choose from and only one of them would run at anything less than 12v.
The one that did work runs fine from a 5v usb wall wart.

This is the most important one: place your beaker on the stirrer with the stir bar in it, and then turn on the power.
Even at 5v, mine still runs too fast to capture the stir bar if it is already running when I place the breaker on it.
Starting it up after putting the beaker/stir bar on it gives the stir bar time to 'catch up' with the magnet.

Oh, and if you're using a hard drive magnet, use two, one stacked on top of the other.

I help take care of a local history museum with plenty of old stuff and we think about helping it last longer. Almost everything we deal with is organic, like wood, paper, etc. Ideally you want a stable temperature and stable humidity. With metal things zero percent humidity is fine. If you're going to store in airtight containers make sure too include silica salts to absorb any moisture that's around and change it out every year or two. Airtight containers without some kind of humidity control could bit you in the .... in years long time periods.

Would MFS Nic be ok to transfer to other bottles and store in an ammo can outside of the freezer you think? Our basement is always cool, so that's where I'd keep it.

Yep, Vaping will be going Underground.
The Genie has been released, no matter what they do they won't be able to put it back in the bottle.

once vaping goes underground, the govt will only get tax $$ from BT gas station sales.= fraction of what they are getting now without any 'sin tax'

It is all I have ever used, but no complaints from me.
Not yellow and the 120 ml bottle I have had sitting on my desk for 5 months is still clear in a clear glass bottle.
I keep a 120 out for mixing from the rest in the freezer.

If kept dark and reasonably cool should be good for at least a year. would still be ok to use after it yellows some but will lose some potency and maybe get a bit of peppery taste. But would work.

Nope, not while there's money involved and there is a lot of money involved with Tobacco. Now that they've classified Vaping (even with 0 nic) as tobacco it's coming down.

I live in Washington State, it's a class C felony to not only sell but buy tobacco online or out of state and bring back into the state.

If people don't believe the States won't apply that to Vaping now that it's been classified as Tobacco they're seriously deluding themselves.

how does a person in Washington State stock pile nicotine? or any ecig product (now or in the future)

i can only figure they still buy it across a border/black market/flea market

Nicotine is not a tobacco product until 8-8-2016.
so unless the state law specifically includes nicotine....
And if it does that means no mail order of Nicorette gum and other NRT stuff.

 

[Two_Bears]

You can sell the extras to the people that said nothing will change on 8-8!

Sounds like a plan to me.

Sorry to hear this Truli. If they didn't have the stock they shouldnt sold it. A problem in inventory management.

Cool, thanks!
I've already got a liter and a half in the freezer. Which I calculated should be about 14 years worth. That price though figure get another two liters, better safe than sorry!

Thats the way I did it up until i went 0 nic just before the first of the year.

I stores my nic in #1 plastic bottles instead of glass.

Freezer, got a liter and a half in there now and about to pick up another 2. Get 100mg nic in PG, pop it in the freezer and it's good for years. I calculate with 3 1/2 liters I should be set for well over 30 years.
