I rinse the syringe out in hot water after everything I use them in even just pg. Maybe the banana has a high alcohol content or some thing because the plunger wont even budge now haha

I would use a little bit of VG. It will keep it moving freely and it goes in the juice anyway. I bought a box of 100 10ml syringes and a box of 100 1ml syringes for $25-$30 total with shipping off amazon. I had been using the same 5ml syringes for over a year though. I also have 2 10ml graduated cylinders and a 25ml graduated cylinder but don't use it as much as I use the 2 10ml ones. I use the cylinders for the PG/VG and usually use syringes for my nic and flavorings.

Yeah I saw a box of 50 1ml syringes for like $10 on ebay I think im gonna grab that and use either vaseline or vg as lube for the plunger untill they get here. Thanks guys!

These are the ones I bought. I got the 10ml for $10.99 and the 1ml for $8.80. I guess they were on-sale but I still think it's a good price. They say single use, but I have used them quite a few times. I think they are meant to be used for doctors or something. The 10ml actually hold 12ml and have the extra markings. I won't need to buy syringes for probably at least 5 years lol. I think it is worth the $30. If you bought them now, it will probably be about $40 total but that is still really cheap. I mean that is basically $0.15 each syringe.

EO levels in the flavoring, and or certain EO's (Tank crackers) are probably more of the issue here than Alcohol itself!
I've used plenty of Alc based flavors without issue in plastic syringes, but then those same syringes can be melted into a mess, or seized instantly with certain EO's straight, or high level of "plastic OK" EO's in Alc or PG
Bannanna is a cracker isn't it? That's probably the main issue there, if a flavor is a tank cracker then normally the same or worse applies to syringes because you are using it concentrated in the syringe, so it's effect on plastic may happen much quicker than a mixed liquid in a tank, or may even happen instantaneously

Good to hear. That should last you a very long time. One thing that sucks about the plastic syringes is the marks come off sometimes so they are basically useless after that lol. I also uploaded those photos to the Amazon listing to help people that might be looking at purchasing them. I didn't expect the boxes to be so huge when I got them for some reason lol. But I hope it does help some people on here or something lol.

So draw flavoring, adjust to your desired measure, add to bottle. Rinse immediately with warm water. No reason to not have a mug of warm water right there at the mix station.
Makes sense.

Syringes are made of polypropelene, which does not crack from those types of flavors - the plastic that is susceptible to cracking and clouding are acetate and polycarbonate.
In fact, if you can find the right diameter syringe, they make great tanks.
its the plunger it ruins not the syringe itself lol. the second it touches the rubber plunger ur syringe is toast. =P trust me i did the hot water rinse and everything i had the cup sitting right next to me didnt help the damage was already done =P
I use TFA Ripe Banana and TFA Cinnamon in many different forms, and I've never had a syringe damaged in any way. Also use some alcohol based flavorings.
