The Final Count Down -- Are You Ready?

[DavidOck]

Not alone, there, Myrany. I was well stocked pre August '16, and have not needed to get anything since. (Not that that stopped me from increasing the stash! )

Yes, sad that it's come to this state of affairs, sadder still if it gets worse, for all those who won't have it available to save their lives...

Sounds like a rationale to ban it to me.

I can see where pharmaceutical companies wouldn't like it, better to sell drugs regardless if they heal,, most just mask problems or create a laundry list of new problems

For the heck of it to see what the stuff that might possibly get past the FDA is like I picked up one of those My Blu pod systems and a pack of pods. 1 pod wouldn't fire no matter what I did. The other fires 50% of the time and even then getting a decent volume puff is almost painful you have to draw so hard. The taste was just as bad as I remember from Blu 6 years ago. I don't see unreliable and nasty tasting gear working for most smokers long term.

It really is a sad situation for those who will have no choices going forward.

3 provaris, 5 REOs, 2 aliens, a Solo, 5 Subboxes, 3 neboxes, 2 frankenskulls, 2 Pulse x BF kits, a ridiculous number of tube mechs. Probably 40 assorted tanks most of which are RTAs, At least 25 squonk attys, and probably another 25 regular drippers. Heck I even have divers for old school carto tanks and the tanks to go with them (diver is a rebuildable replacement for the carto). I have my nic put away. Not worried about getting PG, VG or flavorings as those are used for many non vaping things. I also have hundreds of squonk bottles for the various systems.

The one thing I need to pick up a few more of is drip tips both 510 and 810. In case of loss.

I also have the knowledge that in a pinch I could turn a flashlight into a mod (I long ago stocked up on switches and 510 connectors) and could if necessary improvise a dripping atty.

I started getting ready more than 6 years ago when I saw the writing on the wall. With very few exceptions everything I have bought along the way and all the research I did were aimed at keeping me vaping forever. I took a LOT of crap here on ECF and elsewhere because people did not for a minute believe it would come to this. I was sort of the barely tolerated crazy prepper lady on the forum. Now I am left feeling very sad that all the work I put in will actually be necessary now.

Fyi hack,, writing pens with removable caps can be an emergency drip tip,, snip off the top of course. ( Yeah I had to do that one day)

Holy What. How many?

If my 7 older brothers had nominated me to assemble the family stash this is about what I would have aimed for.

I do remember a small group of naysayers who were absolutely convinced nothing would ever happen. They were so sure that they posted back immediately at anyone who mentioned regulations. I think they dropped out several years ago. Wish they were still here.

Many already have venting in the top so if swallowed the person might be able to breath,,, this might be what someone who likes a tight draw might like.

I have no idea if pen makers are very very close in cap measurements,, so don't expect a perfect fit. Mine was snug but off center

Remember it was accumulated over the course of 6+ years. I started vaping and 2 weeks later found out they were going to try and deem us. I have been a woman on a mission ever since. If it could be made to work I kept it even if I didn't like it much.

My one regret is not getting a Dragon Provari but C'est la vie. I did capture my other unicorn which was my woodville REO

I will look in to them. I miss living in central Iowa SO much. I did grad school at ISU. Might know someone that could pick one up for me if they wont let me order from a distance.

I had no trouble ordering and they ship fast!

I'm not far behind you. My 5th anniversary is 10 days away, and the clouds were already starting to gather when I got on ECF. I have about the same amount of gear as you, except for the squonkers. And I only have 4 ancient mechs. My unicorn was a gold Provari which I got not so long ago.

I picked up the Geekvape Lucid mod for $22 at Elementvape. Great little single 18650 mod for tootle puffing!

[gpjoe]

I'm getting there. Got a pile of mech mods, mech squonkers and RDAs stashed away, along with a lot of stuff that should still be available like wire, cotton, PG, VG, flavors, etc...

Just bought 1.5 liters of 250mg nic base, and going to buy some more.

I’ve got 19 RBA MTL, 10 tanks w 2 years coils, 9 DL RBA’S, 7 DL tanks few coils, 33 mods. Calculator says I have 12 years of nic. Will be a few days before I can order spare glass and a few more RTA’s. I can’t find insulators for all but have a few loaded.

Anything I forgot?

Extra drip tips. They are easy to lose. O rings if you can find them

After my diy episode with a pen cap to replace a broken drip tip I started buying more drip tips with my FT orders.. Over time the stash has grown..and some are in my car with a full micro rebuild kit I put together with rayon my own premade coils etc
