Tips To Clean Squonk Bottles

Well, I just found 3 liters of 100 mg Throat-Hit Nic from Vapers Tek purchased in 2016. Of course they are still in their original plastic bottles. Uuuuug! The bottles are a not a hard plastic but instead pliable and appear to block light as they are a very dark brown color and on the bottom is stamped PETE 1.
What do you folks think? Keep em or chuck em?
It is a lot of NIC, at least for me... hate to check em, but if you think it's the way to go then so be it.

Thanks  

I have several needle tip bottles with the metal syringe type tips which I like. The aggravating thing is the gauge of the needle makes for either super slow filling or I squeeze to hard and it seeps from around the base of the cap. @#%+$&#&$!!! For the love of all that is holy...someone please tell me they know where to get wider gauge needle tips. I believe the color of the caps has to do with the actual gauge of the tips but for the life of me I can't seem to find an actual chart with those color codes. I know they make luer lock caps for bottles but I would rather have a one piece cap and not have to buy two separate items for one cap lol. Also I've been looking at the unicorn bottles. Do those tips work with rta's like the Lemo OG for example? Can I buy just the caps or do I have to buy the entire bottle? Also syringes don't travel well but I have several of those on hand already. The plastic needle tips are OK but I have had issues with them popping off in mid fill...sheesh what a mess. I have plenty of bottles... I would just like to find a decent needle tip cap with say a 16ga needle.  

I'm travelling without checked luggage in two days from now. I know the rules about liquids having to each be under 3 oz. and in a plastic bag. Is it okay if the juices are already opened though? I bought two 30 oz. juices to take on the plane but now I want to dig into them because... they taste so good...

How many 30 oz. bottles can I take in one plastic bag?  

Hi,

I just bought a litre of 100mg/ml unflavoured PG E juice.

I calculated that if it doesn't go off it should last me 10 years. It came in a sealed plastic bottle.

I bought a dark amber glass bottle (which I have sterilized) to put it in but I was wondering if it would be better to leave it in the original sealed plastic bottle rather than breaking the seal to put it in the glass bottle? I took the lid off and it has a proper seal over the rim of the bottle like a Gatorade.

Also the glass bottle I bought came with a plastic lid but I doubt it will be 100% airtight.

Thanks for your advice, any other tips would be much appreciated.  

I don't have that much stuff yet - 4 or 5 devices, 3 tanks, some coils and under 20 bottles of pre-made juice. I've had it all in a plastic tote but that is rapidly getting too small for everything plus the boxes the tanks and devices came in - I save those.

You guys seem to have much larger collections of stuff and I just wondered how you keep everything separated/organized.

I'm thinking if I get into DIY ejuice I'm going to need a room for everything!

Pics please!

 

Just curious how you guys go about vaping through your juice bottles. I buy 30 ml bottles usually. I have a few tanks and dedicate a specific bottle to each tank. I make myself finish off a bottle before I go onto my next juices. If I decide to put a half bottle away and try a new flavor, I'd have a bunch of half bottles laying around and it would annoy the hell out of me.
I have a couple 60 mils on the way though, so I suppose I wouldn't mind stashing those halfway through. I suppose it could be way different for people that drip though.  

I have several Pro Tank II's and replaced the metal tips with plastic tips. Seems like the plastic tips fall off all the time. Has anyone used a dab of silicone glue to keep them from falling off? Does Fast Tech offer any tips that are not susceptible to falling off so easy? It isn't a tank issue as all of the Pro Tanks have this issue. Advice?  

Bear with me all as I have to be a bit verbose.

I have a boxer bf mod I have numerous Rda I am vaping mtl a juice I’ve been vaping 5+ years.
I didn’t use my boxer or any rda for a while. When I did a rebuild as usual I noticed a “bad” flavour. Like most of you I went through a series of steps to no avail

I changed atomisers did a new build and soaked (vinegar, then retainer brite, baking soda and ultimately boiled) the other one I confirmed if I drip the juice tastes as expected I changed bottles and soaked (like above) the bottle I took apart the boxer and soaked the 510 (as above)
Obviously these cleanings weren’t all at once. I tried vinegar. Then when that failed I tried retainer brite (great to remove discolouration but leaves a slightly mint flavour for a few draws),when that didn’t work I tried boiling.

At this point I’m starting to wonder if something is going on with the way the mod is activating. The only thing left I can think of is that for some reason (and I’m not sure why it would have developed) when the metal bar contacts the ring on the 510/feeding tube area there’s some kind of charge that’s happening and raining juice or melting plastic (which I don’t see). Either that or there is some mould or something deep in the 510 assembly.

Have any of you ever experienced this kind of flavour terrible all of a sudden? I have now tried 4 bottles with four tubes. I have cleaned every element at least five times. I have confirmed I’m not just tasting it wrong by dripping.

it’s clearly not the atomiser or build related. I have a hard time believing it’s bottle related after what I’ve done to them.

I just cannot figure this out. The next step of course is going to be to try and use the same bottles /atomiser on another mod but I thought I’d ping you all to see what your thoughts are - because in ten years of vaping I haven’t experienced this, and troubleshooting has taken hours so far.

Just a few final points
no shorting Very minor sparks as you’d expect from this mod and the way it makes contact at an angle Been vaping a very long time and building since almost day one The rda’s are authentic, stainless etc I’ve tried 3 of them at least It’s not wire or cotton
I’m stumped. Appreciate any thoughts.  

Im pretty much freaking out right now, I have been vaping the same juice for 7 years and I just received the 3 bottles that I ordered and I went through 8 coils thinking I had bad coils, well it wasn't the coils I went and smelled my juice and it smelled like a burnt coil with a mix of burnt plastic. I called and they said they didn't change manufactures so I'm assuming something went wrong in the lab. Anyhow I have 1 good bottle left and that's only 30ml, I vape USA #1 from Ecig pros and hopefully they fix it otherwise I'm going to have to wait until they get there next batch which will be a while, because they just got this batch. So I need to find a new juice to vape for now, I prefer max Vg and tobacco flavors but not with the Carmel or dark colors. I love a little nutty flavor, so please can you give me some names juice and where to get it. Also I don't do the salt nic. Thanks so much  

Hi all, I have a bit of a concern.

I have been storing many of my e-juice in the fridge for about 3 months. These are mostly juices in my stockpile that are 6 months or older that I stored in the fridge just as summer started to get hot in Australia to try and preserve them knowing I wouldn't get through them all before their expiry dates.

I was apprehensive about storing hundreds of dollars of my precious juices in the fridge at first so I trialled it by storing a few bottles in the fridge for a month and then sampled them. They seemed to be fine so I went ahead and put boxes of juice in the fridge.

After 3 months of having juices I sampled two bottles of naturally extracted tobacco juices which are fairly sweet. I filled tanks with those bottles right out of the fridge.

I am finding both juices have lost some sweetness and taste a little flat. Even after the juice in the tank warmed up during the day it still tastes lack lustre and has lost its sweet edge. They tasted fine before I put them in the fridge. I now have grave concerns for the 50 or more bottles of juices in the fridge, some which I haven't even opened.

The way these juices are tasting is worrying. I stored my juices in the fridge to preserve them but now I fear I have done the opposite.

I have taken both bottles out of the fridge and will let them sit at room temperature and give them both some vigorous shakes and see if the flavours are restored.

Has anyone else had experience with storing pre-mixed Liquids in the fridge?
