    This is one advantage to DIY you don't run out unless you forget to order flavorings or Nic.

    You are a lot nicer than what I would have been, I probably would have told them to come and get it and stick it where the sun don't shine.

    FXRich reacted to Bebop in Organic VG   
    The general consensus today is that pharma grade glycerin (used in asthma inhalers and such and almost impossible for us lay people to get) is the highest grade and deemed suitable for inhalation. The next grade down and most likely what we are vaping is food grade. It is important to note that the only difference between these two grades MAY be the testing and certification involved with pharma grade. Meaning it is most likely that there is no significant difference and only that food grade glycerin, because it is not designed to be inhaled, simply hasn't been certified for inhalation.

    The absolute two grades that you want to avoid are "farm grade" glycerin and "industrial grade" glycerin. They are less pure and contain other additives or are derived from sources other than vegetable products.

    No ingredient list. I have heard some vg is a by product from making bio diesel. But maybe that's industrial grade. I think I'll go ahead and vape it. If I disappear from the forum you will know what happened. Even if something says pure it isn't necessarily true. From what I hear some diabetics use vg as a sweetener  maybe its that stuff.

    Every vape supplier should begin sending all vape-related gear and liquids to Indiana in plain brown packages (zero labels or indication of the contents)...  Last time I checked.. the USPS does not open and inspect packages entering a specific city or state to verify contents or to look for tax violations.... and the state cannot legally require a Federal entity to do so on their behalf!
     
    What this is designed to do is to kill the small businesses and market for e-cigs in the state, thus pushing everyone back to analogs or Big-tobacco's cig-a-likes... either way, it's a win-win for the state government.  Big Tobacco has to pay a settlement based on the number of packs of cigarettes sold in each state, and their own cig-a-likes qualify as a pack per each stick sold.  They get the sales, and the state increased their "settlement check".
     
    Adversarious is correct... it's always been about the money, and always will be!  Prohibition was all about the liquor taxes, not about the liquor!

    So far I have done about 15 today. I use .5X1 kanthal ribbon wire the coil master works better with round wire but ok with ribbon wire. I use 5/4 wrap on a 2 mm rod and get 1.7 -1.9 ohms, barely fits but works great.

    Okay, I'll step back onto my soap-box....
     
    That's the problem... politicians "expect" that money to be rolling in, and they spend it years before it actually shows up (and rarely does these days because over half the country is unemployed or under-employed).  The tobacco settlements were supposed to go for "public health initiatives", but our politicians have played the shell-game and spent 80-90% of the expected money on other things... because it was never about "public health", it was about the MONEY... now they are panicked because people are doing what they wanted them to do... stop smoking... and now their cash-cow of sin-taxes and settlement checks is dying.... and states are poised to default on loans, bonds, and other unpaid projects.
     
    Politicians want vaping to be classified as "tobacco products" so they can get a win-win... 1) sin-taxes on the e-liquids and gear, and 2) by classifying vaping as a tobacco product, they can hold Big Tobacco hostage by forcing them to pay-up even more on the settlement agreement.
     
    Big Tobacco is forced to push more money to the states this way... which is why they (as an Oligopoly, a legal monopoly) are strong-arming politicians to pass laws to outlaw vaping or at least pass the sunset clause to make all vaping gear but THEIR e-cigs illegal... then they can have the lion's share of the market (to make-up for their losses in analog sales, and provide what the states "expect" them to pay, per settlement agreements). 
     
    It doesn't take a Master's Degree in Economics to figure this crap out!  And, I'm sick and tired of our government spending money they don't have (and then raising taxes or creating new taxes to cover their over-spending).  It's a never-ending cycle!  Now, if you or I write a check for a $200,000 home (without any money in the bank) and try to use the excuse that "Well, I've got a plan to hit the lottery, so the money will be there in a few weeks"... and see how that flies!  But, this is exactly what our government is doing DAILY!
     
    I am 100% against any sin-taxes on e-cigs, e-liquid, or hardware.  I am 100% against any politician who pushes for such laws or taxes.  Politicians like the one in the video should be out of a job tomorrow, IMO!
     
    Big Tobacco is threatened by vaping.  I say let them be threatened... let the free-market run them out of business, or at least reduce them to a minor force in the economy.  But this is not going to happen until "We The People" stand up for our rights and our freedoms... reduce the economic strangle-hold our government has on us... and return our country to the free-market society that allowed us to prosper decades ago.
     
    Our government/politicians need to be required to take a few Economics courses... then they'd realize that lower taxes (and fewer things taxed/regulated) will evolve a stronger economy (more jobs, more sales, better salaries), which will in turn provide more raw-dollars flowing into the economy, and thus into the government coffers.  Basic math is a strange concept to our government... I would much rather have 1% of $1M, rather than 75% of $10,000!  We cannot keep this pace of tax/spend any longer!  Pretty soon the only ones with jobs in this country will be government employees... and without US to provide their income, how will they get paid??
     
    Vaping -vs- Big Tobacco is bringing the disparity and hypocrisy of our government's spending policies to light, and we must win!  If we don't win this battle, then the war is lost for everyone (not just vapers)....
