@bombastinator2 Lipoid Pneumonia too, that was first brought to light by the bootleg THC carts.

And it seems there's a new report too with further complications due to Mycobacterium infection.

@Jessica Tanner you may consider one shots/flavour packs, VG/PG base liquid and Nicotine and making your own then.

Most commercial eliquid shouldn’t have oil on it. In the case of “vape oil” it’s just a name given to the viscosity of the VG and it’s non-drying behavior. It’s not actually an oil though just as the waxes aren’t really waxes. In North America it’s called “vape juice” and is available at most tobacco shops.

FYI......... VG is made from soy, palm or coconut oil.

"Vegetable Glycerin also known as glycerol or “VG” for short, is a clear and odorless organic compound, made from soy, palm, or coconut oil, [...]."


and.......


When purchasing VG for vaping - - - Do Make Sure it is USP grade.

"USP grade meets or exceeds requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). This grade is acceptable for food, drug, or medicinal use."


Good luck!!!

is there a cheap reliable store in the us that sales already made vape oil.

Are you looking for e-juice used for vaping OR do you mean CBD/THC oils???
There is a difference. No commercial e-liquid, intended for vaping, should have "oil" in the ingredients ( at all ). CBD/THC oils do.

If you are asking about CBD/THC oils - - - ECF has a forum for that. If that's what you are looking for, then I would suggest posting in this forum:

    VG is made from those oils, but doesn't contain significant amounts of actual oil, especially food grade and above.

    For those who are interested, oils and fats consist of glycerol linking 3 chains of fatty acid. In the making of soap, a base such as lye is used to remove those fatty acid chain from the glycerol, which is then distilled off to give pure glycerine and the fatty acids are left behind to form soap. Double and triple distillation increase the grade of the glycerine and it's purity. It's VG because the original oils are from plants, not animal fat.

    She’s been missing for a week. Are your dogs cadaver trained?

    Two of our GSD's are trained in SAR. But, that's not the same thing. Cadaver dogs require different training altogether. Those are trained to search for the scents of human decomposition.

    FWIW, our four GSD's are very highly trained in personal protection. :greengrin:

    But it is no longer itself an oil. It is a hydrocarbon though, and most hydrocarbons that can’t be harvested are made from either natural gas or the cheapest organic oil they can find, which these days is palm oil.

    “Vaping waxes” are really more or less just craptacular Vape juice.
    Voop Spray - it’s a great stocking stuffer for the vapers in your life :)
    50 drops of Fragrance or Essential oil - your choice
    2 TBSP Everclear or denatured alcohol
    1 tsp. VG
    4 oz. Water

    Mix all ingredients and package in a spray bottle.

    My understanding is “essential oils”are just oil extractions (as opposed to water or alcohol extractions) they’re frequently done to various botanicals and spices. The issue is some chemicals are alcohol soluble, some are oil soluble, and some are water soluble (caffeine is an example of a water soluble one) nicotine is also water soluble. A lot of things that are water soluble are also alcohol soluble, but not all of them. Some are soluble by none of these but are soluble by more exotic solvents (which is why sharpies smell funny).
    These more exotic solvents can also dissolve parts of you and can have really dangerous side effects (don’t sniff the sharpies) there are such problems as them being carcinogens or genetically active (this is also a reason, but not the only one why paint huffing will kill you ugly) xylene and methyl-ethyl keotone are two famously dangerous ones (but are also so useful they are still used for some things) they are the reason auto body workers talk slow (one of them is in bondo)
    I had a painting professor once who used to make the most beautiful paint by using polyester resin as a base. He got famous in a couple years then was in a hospital for 20 years. He still laughed occasionally for no reason. They’re really dangerous. The guy was lucky to be alive.
