I should have posted this sooner, and hope someone chimes in quickly so I can catch the sale.. I want to order the 100mg 1000ml nic base from MFS, but because I have little ones, I cant (wont) store in the fridge or freezer.. I was going to store it in a sealed pelican style box or something up in my bedroom closet, out of reach of any little hands............

I've read so many conflicting posts...some say its ok, others so no... some say PG base is ok to store not in the fridge or freezer, but not VG based as it gets yukky at room temp after a few months? others say it doesn't matter which base (pg/vg)..........

:facepalm:

I have no idea, all I do know is I can not store it in a food zone (fridge/freezer) for fear of the kids accidentally getting to it, I intended to store it in a closet, where it will be dark and room temp obviously. Is that ok? does it matter if its PG based or VG based? I was going to order it in VG based.

Any advice is appreciated.

Phone Guy, for future reference, you can get one of those dorm-sized fridges, or tiny portable freezer, and install a lock on it.

Personally, in climates like TX and here in AR, high humidity and pretty extreme temps in summer, I do not store anything for more than 6 months if it is not in fridge or freezer......

    No you can't
    I keep mine in the fridge, once it's open I remove it to a dark area with no light.
    Storage Nicotine solutions should be stored in a dry, cool, dark location that is secured from untrained personnel. Always keep Nicotine solutions out of the reach of children and pets. For long term storage keep Nicotine solutions in a glass container with an airtight lid, and proper labeling. To help prevent oxidation, keep Nicotine solutions away from heat, light, and in contact with as little oxygen as possible. Nicotine solutions may be safely stored at room temperature. Optimal storage temperature is 34-41 degrees Fahrenheit. Nicotine solutions may be safely used for up to 18 months with proper storage.
    Nicotine Safety and Handling
    Best to secure nicotine in way others can't get at it, and make sure it's marked in big letters poison.
