I, not being smart, left a 15ml bottle of 50mg xtreme vaping unflavored nic in my car in a box for about 2 weeks.. i just found it today and the liquid has gone from clear to a yellowish hue now.. it smells a little, but i never really smelled it when i got it.. but i swear i can taste something different in the liquid i made from it.. like a bad aftertaste.. and i have upped the flavoring amount 3 times since i've noticed this and i can't seem to get rid of the bad taste.. what do people, what do?

Well you should store e-juice in a cool, dark place. So if it was in your car for a couple weeks, it probably got pretty warm from time to time. It's only 15ml. I say chuck it out and get some fresh stuff.
yeah i plan on doing that, but its all i got until i can order more when i get my paycheck :facepalm:

I wouldn't be too concerned. We likely do more "harm" to the cleanest of nicotine in the process of heating it up as it's vaporized than a couple weeks in a hot car would do.

I did a test some time back involving leaving 150 mg nicotine in PG in my car for a couple weeks on the dash. It was fall, not summer, so it wasn't quite as hot, and the nicotine really didn't suffer any notable yellowing. It could simply be a function of the minor impurities in one nicotine versus another.
