I just received this in an email. Those that might be interested might want to check it out.

(FYI: If I remember correctly, TW's liquids can be pricey.)

COMING SOON!

Totally Wickeds D.V Premier Range (D.V. = Decadent Vapour)

Platinum Ice 54mg - Mixing Juice

Totally Wicked's 54mg Platinum Ice is the purest e-juice on the market. Formulated entirely from UK-sourced ingredients and manufactured in the UK, it combines the highest quality pharmaceutical-grade nicotine (approved for use in NRT products,) with pharmaceutical-grade Propylene Glycol BP. It contains no other ingredients, and is clearly superior

(Let me know if anyone finds out more.)

Sold out on their site right now. 20% off sale extended until Aug 31.
54mg/ml, 30ml reg $44.99, sale $35.99 + $6.99 shipping. ($1.43/ml, 37.7mg/$).

36mg/ml, 30ml reg $29.99, sale $23.99 + $6.99 shipping. ($1.03/ml, 34.9mg/$).

The 54mg is slightly less expensive for cutting (more NIC for the BUCK).
But you are correct, pricey. Even 24mg/ml @ 30ml for $15 is $0.50/ml or 48mg/$. We can get that almost anywhere.
The 250ml of 35 comes out to $0.42/ml and 82.5mg/$.

It figures.

(I like the part were the new shipment of 54mg arrives Sept. 1st and the 20% off sale ends on Aug. 31st! ) lol

Rocketman

Extend the sale AGAIN. I rushed to get the 5 Mega batteries, and they extended the sale. Maybe stretch it out another time?

I don't mind when sellers want to have a sale, you?

Stehle

No, sure don't.

Our "Juice Cop" is going to enjoy those lil' analysis photos.

(Or... as Scooby Do would say, "Ro Read'um Rick!")

Rocketman

Did a little figurin;
If you bought 3 bottles of the 54mg/ml on sale and flavored and cut it to 15mg/ml (instead of vaping it straight) you could get 324ml of 15mg/ml for about $136 (including flavoring and enough VG to cut it) or $0.42/ml.

If you bought another brand of 35mg/ml (about 250ml) flavored and cut it to 15mg/ml you could get a little more than 580ml of 15mg/ml for about the same $136, or $0.23/ml.

Just think if you ever got to vaping 6mg/ml juice. That would be cutting the 54mg/ml 9 times.

I got my Mega batts the other day. It sure is nice having some long-lasting batteries for the 510! I have no idea how long they last but I can tell you this- I took two fully charged batts with me yesterday . Made it thru 4 hours travel time as well as 3 hours in a casino as well as after, meals, etc. I flipped back and forth between the two all day and when I got home late last night both still had a charge on them! With the previous batteries it woudl have been a 5 battery day.

i like it.

Long charge time but at this point I have no idea.

Re: 54mg juice. TW indeed has some very high quality juice but they are WAY too high on the 54mg. I stocked up on their juice due to the sale. I like their attention to quality/purity. I think we're gonna see higher-nic juices at better prices in the very near future. I'm hoping to see more emphasis on purity as well.

75mg is easilly avaliable but way too high price.

Chris at My Freedom Smokes has 48mg flavored for $26.96 for 40ml. tobacco and soft drink flavors. His juices are excellent and you just can't beat that price.

Currently stockpiling in anticipation of the apocolypse. Nah- I stockpile everything for no good reason at all. I guess just 'cuz I can...

Peace,

I checked out the TWpage for the 54mg. Looks promising - but as stated, a bit pricey. Quite responsible to place the data right on the webpage.

Only two complaints - ( you knew I just had to find something... ) :

1. The scan of the documents needs to be bigger; hard to read.
2. Would like to have seen an impurity test of the mixed liquid.

Another vendor of high octane unflavored has their liquid tested after mixing to make sure there is no cross-contamination. They have told me they do this because they switched labs due to a lab that also mixes cosmetics with the same machinery.

My past dealings with TW have been great. They have a good reputation in the industry. Just can't give them a "ticket". Guess I'll let them off with a "warning" this time... (you guys know I kidd... right?)

Names! We need names dammit!

And didja see the 75mg stuff that popped up outta Texas?

Blip Labs

There's a long thread on the other forum.

STUPID expensive, questionable origin, fun for the whole famn damily!

Stehle

Yes as an alternative source it does sound promising.

I just knew if I couldn't read them Rick, you'd have a hard time too! (Sorry!)

Yes, my past dealings with TW have also been very favorable. Bunches of "free" stuff and they have always corrected any shipping mistake in 24 hrs or less. (Their USA site is about a 45 minute drive from me.)

How does nicotine get measured? How much nicotine is inhaled in a 3 second vape?

Stehle

I don't know quite frankly.

Quite a lot in my personal experience.

Rocketman

A lot depends on how you draw. Try an experiment.
If the juice you are smoking is 24mg/ml that is 24mg of nicotine for each ml of juice. If you already knew that skip the previous sentence. That's why the caution labels on a 30ml bottle, that's 30 times 24 mg of nic in that bottle (720mg). That will KILL.

If your cartridge holds 1/2 ml then there is 12mg of nic in it. But it is hard to empty the cartridge. Try filling the cartridge, vaping it, refilling it, vaping it, etc. You should be able to determine the average number of hits for each refill. If you can measure the volume you put in each time (if not use about 0.4ml) then you can figure how many hits per ml and how many mg of nic per hit.

If yu get 30 hits from each little refill, and assume 0.4ml per refill, then that is about 1/3 mg of nicotine per hit. It always seems a little high compared to what they say you get from an analog and I don't know how well it is absorbed compared to an analog. I bet something between 1/3 and 1/10 mg per hit would be reasonable. I vape about 5ml of 20mg/ml or about 100mg of nic a day. Seems high, but I do vape most of the day away.

Stehle

Suffice to say that this is just inhaling, not actually absorbing the nicotine concentration.

I read your post wrong yesterday, sorry!

The Rocket's experiment should be a fairly precise way of measuring inhalation.

greeneyes5066

Thanks Rocket that really laid it out clearly. I feel so silly asking questions like this. I'm just intrigued. Good point Stehle, this doesn't measure absorbtion. I suppose that would have many other factors.

You guys rock!

Speaking of high-nic juice....

Drew at Nhaler.com is now selling 60mg unflavored. 20ml for $25.00.

I've had a VERY good experience with him. Same-day shipping, 10% discount code "saveinnj", lots of freebies thrown in.

I've been using his 48mg unflavored to kick-up a few weaker juices I had and I tried it straight- it is crisp and clean and ALL of 48mg/ml. I'm actually finding that I enjoy an unflavored vape now and then!

I'm not sure that even _I_, your resident nicotine-fiend, could handle 60mg straight. In fact I am at my plateau at 48 and I'm planning on dropping one mg/week with the goal to be nic-free right around a year from now. It took me 31 years to get where I'm at so I'm gonna take it REAL easy weaning myself off off of the nic.

As soon as I'm nic-free I will become THE Militant Anti-Nicotine Jerk.

Nahhhhh.... I won't.

I'll still be a jerk, though!


Peace to all,

Been following Drew's exploits for about 2 months. Must have missed that one.Thanks for the 60mg tip Generic!

(Juice Cop... front & center...!)

Generic

i'm gonna order some of the 60mg and see how it is. His 48mg is crystal clear, good hit, big clouds, and no aftertaste.

I'll let ya'll know how it goes.

Don't freak out! - I'll only hit it straight to check it out (and maybe one drop WITH, not IN, my morning coffee. I'll use it to kick up a bunch of 18 mg stuff I have that will otherwise go unused.

I've got some sealed bottles of 36mg unfavored from Juicy I want to trade off or sell before I order the 60mg,though. I'll post it in the proper section.

Hey! Paypal question to anyone who might know- I have an account. Is that all I need to accept a payment from an individual on a private sale or do I need to set up some sort of merchant account? Yes I know I can go read all about it but maybe someone knows right off-hand?

Thanks and peace,

-Generic

Rocketman

Paypal will allow you to accept "instant" payments from a bank account funded account. You can accept credit card funded payments about 3 times max before you have to upgrade your account. Then credit card payments cost you to accept. Ask whoever pays you to not use credit card payment if possible.

Their terms get a little complicated.

Thanks Rocketman!

Doesn't look like anyone is biting. Heck- no one even complained about my price! Might have to entice with a freebie, huh?

Sorry- I was awaiting permission to post exerpts from the email conversation we had about it. I'll post that in the "Calling all Sellers - Safety of e-liquid" thread when I have a chance.

It was VapeMeister. They've been out for quite a while though.

Sir! Yes Sir!

I haven't been over at N-Haler that much lately. I did know they had 48mg mixing liquid, but only in smaller quantities.

FYI, his 48mg liquid has a better mg/$ ratio than the 60mg/ml.

I shot an email off asking the questions... I'll update when I can.

Also, my apologies for being kinda absent around here lately. This photography thing is mushrooming on me. Glad tho...

I have three more jobs lined up for small webshops that offer a custom PV as well as other kits and accessories.

I've just been contacted by a website development company that is also involved in the e-cig market that wants to talk about "several clients" that need photography services.

If this keeps up, I may have some excess stuff for sale eventually!
