Nude Nicotine Nude Armor V3

[TastersChoice]

I've been searching through Google and haven't really found much talk about this nicotine base.
I was curious if anybody has tried this specific version of nude armor? maybe share some insight
for all of us who have yet to find any real reviews or details about this product, would be really appreciated!

 

[inspects]

Haven't used any yet, but have a few liters of this nic in the freezer.

USE IT! USE IT! USE IT!

I had been a little tight on money but today I'm finally going to get all my DIY supplies
I wanted to start off small since I don't have any practice and was interested in their 50ML bottles, I've read a few
discouraging reviews on their nic solution but the Nude Armor V2 seems to be getting pretty positive feedback.
I'm hoping that's the case with the V3 base as well since they offer it in 50ML size, I think I'm just going to go for it.
I'd still like to hear some thoughts on it though

The only difference between NN's regular nic, their Armor V1, and their Armor V2 is the packaging. V3 does away with the glass bottles of V1 and V2 and tries to use a bit of ascorbic acid as a sacrificial agent to prevent oxidation. For true long-terms storage, I still think V1 is the way to go.

Oh, and there was a blind test run last summer on the other forum, where about a dozen people sampled four "premium" nics. NN was rated the cleanest tasting.

I think one of our fellow VU members relayed me to that forum/thread sometime earlier this month, I probably may just end up getting a few samples from different vendors and testing my luck that way. I definitely want to find the smoothest and cleanest tasting nic without much of a throat hit, kinda wish vaperstek had a sample size, I want to give them a try as well.
Damn it, I've been researching/procrastinating all day. It's always like this when it comes to my vape purchasing, hate being such a picky bastard!

thanks for clarifying the difference between the NN nude armor versions, guess there really isn't much
except for long term storage capabilities. I just read so many harsh reviews, no pun intended
that it makes me uncertain about even making this my go to company, still willing to give them a try
based on the solid feedback that outweighs alot of the bad, we shall see.

 

[inspects]

I can't vape anything but NN for some reason, it's just damn good. I don't taste it, never had any peppery flavor, always the same stuff consistently. It may cost more than others, but I could care less when it comes to a good vape.

v3 i'm surprised all vendors don't do this with all the nic they offer at retail; seems like a slam dunk winner. add a drop of vitamin c solution, nic doesn't turn gold or pink, voila!
v2 oh lord this looks like a honey. first, it ships in glass. second, there are no gasses of any kind at all in there; it's vacuumed out. this would be my long term storage choice in the 250ml size, about 8 of em. but at $160 a liter of 100mg i'm waiting 'till the last possible second to order. looking for a 4 to 5 year store minimum.
v1 chemnic claims that they argon out all their nic so i went with a liter for starters at $55. all together i have 2 ltrs or about 3 years worth.

Just cracked open a 500ml of NN for use now, right out of the freezer!

sheesh, everybody in this forum is ready for the Vapocalypse
I was just looking into the Chemnic thread Teresa posted, sounds promising

I'm not sure everyone is, but I certainly am. I see no sense in waiting until the millions of vapers who don't frequent forums and are still oblivious start to panic when the local b&ms they depend on begin to close. I expect we'll see a good bit of that by the end of the year nation-wide. Then there's the fact that the state I'm technically a resident of has imposed a 40% tax on vapestuff starting October 1, and buying stuff from out of state without "voluntarily" paying that tax thereafter is felony, with a maximum penalty of 5 years.

So if you're not ready, I suggest you get ready. Immediately, if not sooner.

 

[kimsmm]

I was just reading about that. Pennsylvania is doing all that starting Oct 1. Also to add that if you are caught buying stuff from online (out of state) - $5,000 fine and up to 5 years max. The article was talking about 500 vape shop owners potentially closing their doors forever. This isn't good!!

Here is another nic to consider: http://www.carolinaxtract.com/

I have Vaperstek, Nude Nic, Chemnic and some Nicotine River. Carolinaxtract is probably my favorite followed by Nude then Vaperstek, Nicotine River and Chemnic. The top 3 are almost interchangeable but I personally would pick Carolinaxtract as it already comes in an amber glass bottle as standard.
I have been using the same 120ml of carolinaxtract 100mg VG nic for probably more than 6 months now in the original amber glass bottle with dropper with no change at all in the quality of the nic. My long term storage nic is in the freezer but the one in use I keep in the refrigerator and the last 2 bottles of Carolina xtract have been the same from the first drop to the last, just clean as a whistle.

Chemnic is OK but would not be my first choice unless price is of utmost importance.

Huh?
I see in post #5 you say, " I definitely want to find the smoothest and cleanest tasting nic without much of a throat hit"?

That's not been my ChemNic experience. Mixed @ 50/50 18mg, I not only get a bunch of TH, but also a very noticeable numbing sensation in my mouth that lingers for at least 10 mins. after I pause vaping.

I agree with mjag and Ron. Carolina Xtract is really a no-brainer. Cold extraction process will always be cleaner than chemical extraction. The shelf life without freezing is insane as well. My sample remains crystal clear from over a year ago.

 

[joeyboy]

I use NN, Vaporstek regular and their TH version. I cant tell a difference but I vape really low nic levels. I also have seen no difference in my freezer versions. I just take out what ever I want to use when I make more base. Not too picky.

EDIT: I have the NN V1. It hasn't been opened. I got the 500 ml bottle but only 50mg. Didn't understand the benefits of 100 mg when I bought it. Now that's all I get.

 

[mjag]

Just a heads up there is a discount code for Carolina Xtract, if I remember right it is Dada1 for about 5% off. My memory is a little shaky on that though so you might want to google it, maybe there is an even better code now?

I had read pretty good reviews about it in the forums, keep in mind I've never mixed before
Carolina Xtract sounds awesome but 11.99 for shipping?? geez that's $30 just for a sampler
the nic sounds great but for a beginner like myself that's a bit on the steep side.

On the flip side, what do you guys think about Nude Nic's VG/PG ??
I keep hearing about Essential Depot and Bulk Apothecary out here as well
has anyone compared the 3 at some point?
I always figured VG/PG was the least of my worries, now I can't decide on jack sheet!!

 

[noejuice]

For $100 you can get a gallon of VG, a gallon of PG, and a liter of nic from Chemnic. This is way way cheaper than smoking or dilly dabbling around with samples. I use this method, and it works. Also I have a liter of NN. Then you'll be able to at least vape for a year or more, and you can kick back and worry about other stuff like what about my gear.

Wiazardlabs is down, dunno what's going on there. I started with 100% vg nic but switched to 100% pg because the pg blend is easier (not as thick) to work with coming out of the fridge. Hope this helps.

vg and pg are inert alcohols and store nicely at room temperature. with the nic in the fridge this stuff doesn't take that much space. with cheap pumps in the one gallons you can just pump the stuff right out and then everythings not scarce or precious and you can fumble around with different blends . . .

I really like NN VG, don't use PG so I can't comment on that.

 

[TastersChoice]

I just decided to place my order with nude nic on everything, thanks for the recommendations guys and gals
noe, I actually have a nephew that comes over pretty often so I don't plan on storing any nic in my freezer just yet
however I plan on purchasing a mini fridge with a locking mechanism to keep the little rascal out just in case in the near future.
Thanks again y'all!!

 

[TastersChoice]

quick update

I placed my order on the 2nd and received an email with my tracking # on the 8th.
Apparently they notified usps on the 6th in regards to my package but there hasn't been any movement since.
I tried to go to their contact us link on their website and for some odd reason I get an IP Blacklisted message.
Has anybody else had this happen before? I'm starting to kind of freak out.

 

[mjag]

I would not worry, Nude Nic is slow but they get it to you. Same process for me that is happening to you with my last order, I am pretty sure they are swamped with nic orders because of the FDA.

 

[TastersChoice]

Well that's a relief, I was really starting to worry for a second, I finally have all my DIY supplies and am just awaiting for the nude nic package to be delivered so I can get to mixing. Ecigexpress keeps making me want to buy more flavors and I haven't even began my voyage yet

 

[axl617]

I'm using V3, no complaints here. Tastes clean, good consistency. Should be mentioned that I'm extremely lazy with how I use it. I basically store it in a drawer, and every morning I take it out, stick in my syringe and make a batch, a few times I left the cap on a bit loose when I stored it. About a 2 months in and still no degradation.
