Anyone who's vaped for any while knows that. It doesn't affect the potency, only perhaps the taste if brown enough. It's still nicotine, though and makes a great pesticide when no longer vapable. Pour it on anthills.

Yeh so y do u think it’s turning brown when reacting w air or light if it’s not due to oxidation.

Also literally every source I’ve found says that it does lose potency. I experienced this when hitting it myself.

Does nicotine juice lose potency over time?

Does Vape Juice Expire?

That is one reason that we freeze it.

    Good job on that, but it has a little spelling error that may keep some from getting it. Can that be fixed?

    Didn't they do something like that in Dune? Their suits had built in straws, and the suits filtered their urine and sweat so they could re-uptake it through the little straws.

    FWIW, I've mixed and vaped simple PG, VG, and Nic unflavored for years after I quit using flavors. I really don't miss the flavorings. I get my Nic hit and coils last much longer before I have to change them.

    Once in a great while I'll put a little flavored mix into a tank just for a change, but my daily mix is unflavored.

    I put a couple of drops in the drip tip, squonker here.
