Request for Ingredient Information *kind of important!*

[BonnyC]

I really don't want you guys to disclose your super secret recipes for juice, but I need to know which juices use certain things that are known to crack polycarbonate tanks. I've started to use this type of tank a lot and I really want to make sure that they last as long as possible since money is always such a concern in this economy and I hate to waste it.

Can you get in touch with the chemist and get a list of juices that use the following ingredients for those of us who have this concern? I realize that having these ingredients in juice doesn't mean that it's guaranteed to crack a tank. It just means that it has the potential to.

(copying and pasting relevant bits from this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ices-flavors-crack-tanks-ce2s-clearos-15.html )

Malic acid
Citrus acid
TPA ripe banana flavoring
TPA honeysuckle flavoring
TPA maraschino cherry flavoring

triacetin
Wintergreen juice or flavoring

TPA Cinnamon Danish flavoring

TPA Vanilla Custard flavoring
TPA Pineapple flavoring

If y'all can help me with this, I'll really appreciate it. If you don't want to post it in the forums but you're willing to tell me in a PM, I'd appreciate that as well. You could also maybe list them on your site or put a warning on the juices that have this in them. Thanks in advance

I just bought a bunch of clearomizers from SI and fire n ice had cracked the tank within a day and made it very cloudy,and also destroyed the bottom of the rubber drip tip, and I had to throw the tank away. Id say it was my fault as I didn't realize this could happen and should of did my research but I filled 2 other cartos with new grape and new blueberry and the clearomizers are completely fine after a week of use. Im still going to vape fire n ice but will just have to rely on a carto. I really love VB but with my next order around the corner im unsure with what is going to be ok to use in my clearomizers. Id love to see a safe polycarbonate tanks list for VB's flavors or an e-mail / PM or something.

 

[Mich1370]

I am still working on this and gonna get together with the boss man tomorrow and see what I can get for you guys.

 

[BonnyC]

Right, Anthony, that's the list I was pulling from. I just abbreviated it a bit to list the stuff VB might be using since some of that is brand specific on the list.

Michelle, thanks for looking into it! My stardust has some cracks in it, but they're growing really slowly. My last one was leaking through the crack last time and was tossed by now, so I'm happy enough that it's lasted this long. It has nothing to do with the juice, though. The new stardusts just aren't holding up well since they changed the base.

I'm just going to continue waiting for the phoenix cartos to be stocked at gotvapes and hopefully they'll get the vivi nova soon, too. I don't want to buy knock offs from other places.

 

[Anthonyy207]

So far New Mango, New Blueberry and New Grape are fine, and im currently testing New Pineapple

 

[Mich1370]

Testing. ?

 

[Anthonyy207]

Testing. ?

Yeah testing it out in my clearomizer to see if it gets damaged. Good news is that my clearomizer is fine

 

[Mich1370]

Gotchya lol! That is y I am just in C/S and not in the lab.

 

[themysterious1]

any word on this yet?

 

[BonnyC]

Not that I've heard. I'm using a different type of carto now, but it's still good to know.

 

[Mich1370]

I am waiting to hear from the bosses. They are getting the info for me.

 

[themysterious1]

Ok just wondering I use tanks all the time...Its just nice to know what to avoid in them. I just got my Strawberry Lemonade and letting it steep for a week or 2 b4 I try it.

 

[Mich1370]

Mmmk... I'll check in with them tomorrow.
