Nicotine from China

I remember @Josephine_van_Rijn saying that Hiliq sent her a bottle that said Rose Essence on the label and she didn’t request it, they just do it. I guess it wouldn’t hurt to make sure and request a non-nicotine label when you order. I know I will just because I’m paranoid…I live in the USA :crazy_face:

I really don’t care the the cooling agent in the mango either but when you pair it with flv mango, it tames it a bit.

Oh, I didn’t know. I’ve been working on a lot of popcorn recipes lately. I also planned on posting a couple of recipes I thought you might like for the easy peasy 2-3 flavor ones.

My favorite kind of mixes.
Please post some popcorn recipes. I have a few popcorn flavors. FLV, TPA, Hiliq and OOO caramel popcorn i think.

I’m going to attempt to organize my flavors this weekend because lately I’ve been repurchasing flavors that i already have. I need to come up with a system. Maybe organize by flavor instead of manufacturer.

I’ve done that more than once. I’ve tried different ways to organize and ended up with by brands. I asked various prolific mixers how they do it and they all seemed to organize that way. But I guess whatever works for you is best.

RE: Popcorn…I’ll post mine if you post yours.

About three weeks ago. They ship via DHL and I had it in 4 days.

I’ve got a spreadsheet you can use. If you’re familiar with Excel, it’ll make things a lot easier for you. Drop me a pm if you want.

Is that Hiliq popcorn or caramel popcorn you mention as I’m interested in trying the popcorn and am thinking of trying the 5ml sample with my next order,

@Mikser so the question becomes, will this still work ? Box mods and RTA’s are “School Supplies” perhaps ?

I’m curious…

On the recipe side, there is a shopping list and if you put all your flavors in your stash, and then whenever you put something into your shopping cart it will let you know if you have the flavor or not. It comes in very handy.

@robin, I have tried EVERY conceivable possible way to organize (on the racks and in a spreadsheet) all of my brands, and flavors. The ONLY way for worked for me, was to group everything by MFG, and then alphabetically by flavor.

Despite the fact, that I use Rods calculator for real time inventory, I still maintain an xls spreadsheet of all my small bottles, and large jugs, for my own sanity. It’s only a pain ONCE. The FIRST time is painful, BUT, once you set it up, and simply update it every time you purchase, it adds YEARS to your life, and sanity.

I didn’t request the Rose Essence label specifically, I did ask for a no nicotine related label.

Good question. I guess it all depends how the law is enforced.

This is from European perspective. All those regulations (if/when they appear - and they will since we too have all those corrupt prostitutes in the right positions) will hardly have any real effect on existing vapers, but it will hurt new vapers (and moving from smoking to vaping).

Currently import of pure nic is not allowed in most EU countries (even import from other EU countries is not allowed). The limitation is 20mg in 10ml max bottles of nic or premade e-liquids with up to 20mg regardless of the bottle size. Companies are mostly respecting this, but ofc some ways could always be found (with Brexit this has become more difficult since vaping stuff is the cheapest in the UK, but it still works and it always will). This nic issue for existing vapers can be easily solved forever by one single order - i know my 1.25L/100mg will last forever if i only start reducing my nic levels by just 0.5mg per year.

Buying the equipment is not regulated (except that ridiculous 2ml-max limitation for tanks which could easily be ignored; besides basically all manufacturers are making both versions, one 2ml for the EU and one for other markets with a larger capacity - and they even include both in a package they sell). So no problem atm.

In case they introduce new restrictions, the market will adapt and thankfully there will always be some merchants globally who will be pleased fill the hole (unless we live in a dictatorship where vaping is strictly not allowed, but in that case vaping would be the smallest problem we’d have). The biggest issue for me is that flavoring companies will be hurt a lot and improvements in that department will be slowed down dramatically (compare how exceptionally flavors have improved in the last 5 years for example).

I am using right now this nicotine (Heno) and it is not bad at all. I like it, good throat hit. I live in Russia and almost is the only nicotine available here. I hope it will be helpful. Cheers

Back in the early days of vaping, the concern with China’s vaping products was the over spraying of herbicides on the tobacco leaves. You may want to look into any concerns today with this.
