By the time we run out of nicotine, theyāll have implants we can program to deliver whatever drug we like in whatever dose feels ahhh.
Sure, yeah probably not but wouldnāt it be good

Rate of degradation.
Nicotine in PG solution is noted to be stable at room temperature (20Ā°C) when exposed to air and (indirect) sunlight for up to 2 months with only a 2.1% drop in concentration.
This indicates that an open container of Nic/PG base at 54mg would degrade to approximately 52.8mg.
An open container of PG e-liquid at 18mg would degrade to approximately 17.5mg.Similar minimal degradation (2%) is noted to have occurred after storage in a domestic freezer for around 18 months.
(I only have one source for this, numerous others all appear to cite or plagiarise the original).Various tests carried out at 40-80Ā°C for up to 20 days appear to show no degradation of Nicotine in PG within a sealed container.
Breakdown of the chemical structure of Nicotine is noted to begin at approximately 300Ā°C in an oxidising environment.
(The flavours and aromas associated with any particular mixed e-liquid would be subject to higher rates of degradation in much less severe environments).
PG - Propylene Glycol
VG - Vegetable Glycerin
Vodka - assumed 37% ABV (Cos thatās what I had in me blooming cupboard!)

A UK VAPING FORUMā¦ HAD NO IDEA! Representing the colonies whoop whoop
River is great, Iāve tried few times to get them to answer what may holds for shipping, theyāve ignored all emailed questions, completely, kinda funnily really.
They did tell me what Iāve accepted, glass bottles are better long term but also kinda wishy washy, I guessed bc if theyāre better then theyād have more info on this, long term storage, supplies, wouldnāt they sell more of. They could tell us āOK, hereās how to buy and store 20 years of nic baseā and theyd be able to do that better.
Iām figuring as my nic degrades itāll be like stepping down in nic, but automatically and without knowing 
one day Iāll eventually be vaping pure diluent and not even know it
