Thanks for the tips! Bought my first ever Chalice and an additional cyclone for backup!
As to the FDA Ruling, I just need to buy more Nic to store and try to clean out my freezer. I would think flavoring and VG/PG would be easier to get later on than Nic. Got a panic attack yesterday when Facebook is filled sigh the FDA thing. I almost thought I would just go back to smoking. Hopefully not.
I haven't been around for a long time again. Life is hard and got smashed with reality just today. Hopefully the chalice purchase would cheer me up a bit.
Love to see Reoville is still so active. Miss you all.
Good to see you and so many people. I dropped out of sight myself for over a year - completely missed Rob closing the forum - which I regret missing.
Ya know, it's already been said that it's a given that the FDA over-reached with the proposed regulations as they stand. You know how this works: Ask for the moon knowing durn well you won't get it all, settle for something closer to reality, and then the compromise is something that the
"...for the children!" nutters can swallow, and the pro vaping community can (begrudgingly) accept as not a total screw job.
The problem I see in the present ridiculousness of the regs - and this has been brought up for years already - is the attempt to regulate
intentions. How very Orwellian. If you
intend to use those organic cotton balls at Walgreens for vaping then it's a tobacco product. If you
intend to stick that 18650 in a flashlight well alrighty then. But if your
intent is to use that same battery to vape it's a tobacco product. Yes - plan non-nicotine PG and VG will be looked at with the screwy eyeballs of intent. How are they putting it?
"N
icotine-free e-liquid that is intended or reasonably expected to be used with or for the human consumption of tobacco products in most cases would be a component or part of a tobacco product and,therefore, within the scope of this rule. These products will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis."
There's that "i" word - intended.
Better start controlling your thoughts. Maybe the government has already developed the technology to read your mind in order to determine your intentions when buying a freezer, glass bottles, vegetable glycerin (
soap makers beware!!!), batteries... Hell even water may need to be regulated - if you intend to thin your VG based "tobacco products" with it. Checking out at Target could turn out to be a whole new experience. Will you have to do a mind meld with the cashier?
It's absurd. And very Orwellian. And far from over - so don't despair too much.
