For anyone looking to do magnetic mixing, here's a new device from Nitecore.
Looks promising, I just need to decide if I need one. Ok, if I want one, need be damned.

Cool looking gimmick, but just a gimmick nevertheless. I especially liked the part when that "magnetic stirrer" is spinning inside of a plastic bottle. Would you like to have some plastic shavings with your vape?…

My take on it: mixing even the 100% VG liquids is not a problem. Homogenization is. And that's where good ole ultrasonic bath comes in handy with its 40+ KHz "stirring" (more like a micro-shaking actually, which is even better).

How could this be a gimmick if it does what it is supposed to do?
It stirs the heck out of the ejuice which is its intended purpose.

Not at all a gimmick IMO.

Not a gimmick, they've been around for many years.
I remember using them in Chemistry back in the 80s, but they've been around for much longer.

Don't know how plastic shavings are going to get in anything it stirs. But, I don't mix in my dispensing bottles either.
In fact, don't need a mixer because I use a battery operated baby formula hand mixer.
But, if I were just starting out and made juice that needs steeping, I'd have one if the price were right.

not cheap, but cheaper than some I saw back when I first started diy.

I am good with my cheap badger paint mixer and letting them steep for 1 - 3 months now that I have a huge stock pile of steeped diy juice

These will have a suggested retail of $119.95 U.S. They will start shipping out next week to distributors I'm assuming. They didn't make that clear in the email response I received asking about this magnetic stirrer. To @ttatlanta, I've used THIS stirrer that I made numerous times and never had any shavings of plastic in my juice. The outer casing of the stir bars I have are Teflon (PTFE). These stirrers do work well to be honest. For shake/stir-n-vape, it is excellent. It's not a miracle steeping product and some things will still need time, but I feel it has cut down on the amount of time. It would be nice if the nitecore was also a scale :D
