Rumor on the web is Barron has tried an e cig....... not sure if true.

Heck my first cig was at 6 and they still sell them, hope this is just a knee jerk and he calms down!

They taxed cigs like crazy though, so after the dust settles that’s prolly what will happen with juice.

It would be funny if this situation wasn't so sad.

He fucking doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about. Fucking asshole!!! Yes I'm pissed.

There is a call to action on casaa.org! Do it! It's an easy way to send a message to your Congress Critters and President Trump! Just click on my casaa banner below.

I wish that CASAA hadn’t waited til the last minute to do something. Where the fuck have they been? Deeming has been going on for years now! Sorry, I know it’s not you but I’m kinda disappointed in them.

Quick question for those of you that order from Chefs. Does it normally take more than 10 days? :( I did the cheapest shipping that had no tracking. Maybe that's what I get for trying to save a few $$ boo. I won't do that next time.

I always use the cheapest option with no tracking. Usually 7 days door to door but my last order was only 5 days. Never had an issue with no tracking.

Thanks! Oh I wasn't worried as far as it never getting here I was just curious as to how long. I have several people I promised to send some juice to. Making them wait after I promised bothers me more than anything. In the future I will wait till I have the flavors in hand :)

Only one I ever tell folks to watch and support is VTA now. They seem to be actually trying to get stuff done. Hell, who knows, I could be wrong but so far they have gotten a few things ( like taxing the crap out of ejuice ) in certain states over turned by showing up at the meetings etc etc

@Rhianne since you are getting ready to start this, a good thing to do, even before you have supplies, is to register and then take a look at "Create a Recipe" on website e-liquid-recipes.com

You enter various values, like the nicotine level you want, the base that your nicotine is in, the PG/VG ratio you want the end mix to be, and then enter each of your flavors. At the end of all that, save the recipe and see that it will give you exact parameters of how to mix the juice. You can use ml, gm, or drops as units of measure.

Click the drop-down menu where it says "User" and you can choose drops or grams. You can also enter all the info about the cost of your bases and nicotine.

Up top is what a finished recipe looks like.

I would highly recommend that you get yourself a scale, and either start saving bottles to reuse, or order some bottles to mix into. If you use a scale, then select grams as your unit of measure on ELR.

If money is a concern, as it was with me, here's the scale I use, $10.99 on Amazon, free shipping with Prime:


And I just got a slew of bottles for $0.19 each here:

https://www.ivapesupply.com/ivapesupply/30ml-unicorn-plastic-bottle-with-wide-open-top.html

If you use a scale and these bottles (which are wide-mouth and very easy to mix into) you will not need any pipettes, cylinders, beakers, droppers, etc. Everything can be dripped right into the bottle.

This is not rocket science. It's just a matter of figuring out how to enter the recipes, get everything set up right, and then you just follow the recipe like you would if you were cooking.

Oh, and I just got a helluva deal on 500ml each of PG and VG with free Prime shipping here:


I believe that same company also has a package of two 500ml bottles of VG, so you'd get a liter shipped for $12.95 if you have Prime:

https://www.amazon.com/Vegetable-Glycerin-Grade-Kosher-2-Pack/dp/B074CNYG1J?ref_=ast_sto_dp

And two last things - this is the best deal I've found anywhere for nicotine that has favorable feedback:

https://liquidnicotinewholesalers.com/100mg-nicotine-liquid.html

I got the 250ml of 100mg/ml for $14.99, and shipping was about 5 bucks, then use coupon code ELRECIPES for 15% off.

Bull City Flavors carries almost all of the flavor lines we use most often, and you won't find better prices than theirs. Use code VU6 for 6% off all the time.

Total that up, let's see:

Scale $11
VG $13
Bottles $10
Flavors from BCF $15 (this is about 10 small bottles of flavors plus $3-4 for shipping)
Nicotine $18

Looks like $67 to me, enough supplies to mix over a liter of liquid, with 2/3 of the nicotine and a good portion of the flavors left over.
Thanks for the heads up on the Amazon deal. I got 2/500ml of PG.

Hmm, I wonder why? Do others know something? Well, as I said I could be wrong. No clue.

If I am recommending a place I shouldn't though, someone pm me please and fill me in.

This takes a few minutes, but phone calls are arguably more meaningful than emails. Please consider calling!

Subject: NATIONWIDE FLAVOR BAN! URGENT CALL TO ACTION!

On Wednesday, September 11, 2019, Donald Trump, along with HHS secretary Alex Azaar, announced that the administration would be banning all flavored vapor products from the market. The move is in response to early findings from the National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) that show the number of young people who vape has increased by 25% in 2019 (accompanied by a 28% decline in teen smoking).

The White House needs to hear from adult vapers and anyone who loves a vaper! A flavor ban won’t protect our children, but it will harm their parents if they go back to smoking cigarettes.

So I’m gonna guess Vuse has passed the PMTA. I turned on the TV this afternoon and have seen 3 ads so far. And now #4.....right now.

Getting me hot under the collar again.......

Mixing a strawberry jam and cream donut. High hopes! Also tweaked my coconut butterscotch banana recipe. Almost there......

Try to ignore the commercials. I just hardly watch TV anymore. I got tired of BP ads and I don’t like Big Vape ones, either.

I just had a horrible thought.

What is it about cigarettes that DRIVES people to keep smoking?

We are looking at the wrong thing folks.

We better move it. Stock up on nicotine.

If there's one single thing that Big Tobacco wants in its own pocket, it's the thing that people get addicted to. It's next. Just you watch.

Oh I agree. I’m definitely stocking up. Just got two liters, will get two more shortly. I’m almost 50, so according to the calculator, I should be ok....especially if I cut down my nicotine to 1.5 from 3.

Eh, maybe two more after that.

This just does not seem right. Obviously doesn't take into account juice made for others, but still.

So are you really only vaping only 5 mg a day? And buying a 3785 ml bottle of nicotine?

Mine looked about right. 6mg, 5ml a day, 100mg, 240ml parameters gave me 2.39 years per bottle.

The last bottle (120ml) I bought last December, I haven't quite finished it yet, and I have enough juice mixed out of that bottle to easily last me beyond this coming Christmas.

Huh. Mine looked right, as well. A gallon of nicotine is a lot! Damn!

Well I just ordered another 240ml from LNW, and according to that calculator, if I cut down to 5mg, I'm good. I have over 10 years' worth of nicotine.

I will be amazed if I live longer than that. At any rate I doubt I will want to still be vaping at the age of 75.

With 1 liter it says it'll last 6 years. With all the juice I make for people, it's probably close to 1 year.
Start charging. They can afford 5 bucks if nothing else. Save that and buy more nic

yeah, pay up sucka.

i did the calculator, and it work out about right. i doubt i would outl;ive 3 liters. that would be 15 years.

but i have also been thinking, how long will this ban crap go on.

Me personally? I’m stocking up for the long haul. Either way it falls, I’ll have enough nicotine to last me the rest of my life. How long did it take the US to listen to the Royal College of Physicians about cigarettes? Way too fucking long. There are plenty of people who are against vaping of any kind.....and they have money to back them up. The landscape of vaping is definitely gonna change in the next few months. Even if we win this one, the May 2020 thing is looming large. Big Tobacco/Pharma is determined to eradicate vaping.....except THEIR pods and liquids. It’s already happening.

It was almost 2 years after the U.K. sounded the alarm on the dangers of smoking before the U.S. did likewise despite knowing better. That alone tells you just how much they were/are concerned about the populace as a whole.

It seems like since we were able to quit smoking pretty painlessly by vaping, there are a lot of people who are pissed off since they think we didn’t suffer enough or some shit like that.
So they want to make us use pods and no flavored liquids. And save the kids from the dread vaping epidemic. FM sideways!!
