E-Juice and the Heatwave

platinums

hows everyone juice holding up in this Scorcher of a heatwave?

I read somewhere that heat kills Nicotine, is this hot enough at teh moment?
Means ill vape more if anything:pac:

Juice seems to be more fluid which helps wicking a bit alright. Especially for thicker juices

Just keep it out of the direct sunlight and it will be grand. But yea it doesn't really like the sub tropic weather we have become used to over the last few days.

I haven't really investigated this but when I was in Florida I was convinced that the heat played a role in me not getting my usual hit and the bottle of juice was always in my pocket..strange!

I wonder if it would be a good idea to keep e-liquid in the fridge? Or is that not advised?

Well I live in a Tropical Country (a few weeks ago we hit 40 Celsius) and Juice holds up pretty well.

Once its out of direct sunlight it seems to be fine, its the UV that degrades nicotine moreso as far I know not the heat.

Keeping it in the fridge is fine, as long as you dont do what minister reilly said and mistake it for some sort of food one dark night and drink it.......

So direct sunlight... The bottles aren't UV protected then.
Is there an easy way to do this. CBA transferring the multitude of juices to the little metal juice holders that have hit the block. That's work.

Maybe a black electrical tape wrap. Proper pikey style.
That Would keep the rays out and the bottle is never going to be out of the sun all the all time.

Brown pharmaceutical grade glass bottles. Available cheap enough if you search 'jars Ireland' but you have to buy between 30-60 of them or you get raped on price.

I dunno my dad managed to use a tube of my moms hair removal cream instead of toothpaste after a night on the piss (never had an issue with hair on his tounge again mind you)

My Nicoine concentrate does come in brown bottles to keep out the light, regular smaller juice bottles are generally clear as it makes it more appealing for sale when you see the colors (but limits shelf life).

Why would you leave it out all the time anyhow ? .. dont you have drawers or a box or something to keep your juice outta harms way

I wonder if the blue bottles Halo uses block uv. I guess the epipemods brown ones do.

turns out Violet trumps Brown.

The science bit: Test of Rose water in Violet and Brown Glass jars, After 2 months the Brown showed signs of decay. The violet showed none after 2 months.

Seen here - the site looks a bit hippy, but where would we be with out hippies man.

So Brown is good for about two months, and considering I only have a bottle of juice out and about with me for a week before i change flavours it should do the job.
Incidentally I don't leave the juice out all the time, i just don't put it away all the time,

I am guessing here, but I'd say Violet glass is astronomical and over engineered for this task, moneybags types ( read more money than sense) will lap it up no doubt.:pac:

Tell you what though, recently got a bottle of DEA from italia, ( via vaperus ) and the bottle quality is tip top. Laboro-chemical grade shizznitzles. Yea.

Most of my bottles are out in the open (not in direct sunlight), clear, and have suffered no ill effects. Except the Virginia Prime has gotten smoother-tasting. Stupid delicious juice.
