Doubts about Juice

    Looking for people thoughts/suggestions please.

    Been vaping for over a year and have tried different makes of juice. Ive been engaged in a bit of a race to the bottom with regards to value for money and to make y vaping experience as cheap as possible.

    However, I am starting to be concerned about the quality of juice and what exactly is in it. Im currenlty paying €13 for 100ml of an Irish site. The reason I'm starting to get doubtful are:

    (1) The lid on the container is very flimsy and doesn't lock as its supposed to, so if they canty get that right, what about the ingrity of the juice?

    (2) With everyone trying to undercut each other and the fact that most ingredients are sourced from China with zero regulation/health checks, what is the risk of sub standard goods being used?

    I suppose my question is, are there any products which are as safe (certified)? i know ill probably pay more but after having quit the other ones, Id like to take a step further and negate any risks from juice that currently isn't regulated.

    If it's Hangsen from bargain vapour you're talking about then I wouldn't be too worried. They are probably the biggest juice maker in the world, if you do a bit of a google you'll find tests done on their juice and even a look around the factory. The have plenty certifications (ISO 9001 etc) according to themselves anyway.

    I tried some and didn't like the taste at all but it's probably as safe as you can get.

    Steeping is what's needed for most liquids, especially the Hangsens. They improve quite a bit after a couple weeks airing in a dark, undisturbed drawer/shelf /box somewhere. What HAVE I just said or started...

    Generally they're ok though - I've tried a few more expensive ones which I can't say rate too much better.
    you can always add to Hangsen too you know - say a nic free flavour to mellow or sweeten it, even a bit of PG or VG to weaken a strength if it seems to strong.

    I've seen and used a few that aren't sealed etc.

    They taste ok, but I agree, they look pure dodgy and do nothing for any seller's credibility.

    It's probably fair to advise anyone to never, ever trust any eliquid that does not have a proper seal, childproof cap etc.

    If OP was talking about the Hangsen deal off bargain vapour, they come in sealed, I've been ordering from there for about a year now, never had a problem except that some liquids need steeping (and a few are just not good). I could post a biig thread here describing my experience with those juices, I had most of them (bought loads in samples of 5ml just to see what the craic is about with them) so if anyone would benefit from that, let me know and I'll make the thread.

    I'd certainly appreciate a review of the Hangsen from bargain vapour.
