Hey all,
I have a bunch of bottles that are hard for me to squeeze. I have hand issues. I know I can buy those needle bottles that are really easy to squeeze, I have one, but that would leave me with a bunch of bottles without labels. Any suggestions? Anyway I can transfer the labels? they seem hard to remove. I know I can just write on them but I would like to know the ingredients in the future when I forget.

Either a sharpie or a label maker would do the trick, you could also cut the label off the original bottle and track it that way (glued on the new bottle, put in a binder, taped to a wall, etc.) ... Or if you are really .... retentive, just label the bottles with numbers (or flavor/manufacturer) and put all the relevant information you want to keep in a Word document/Excel spreadsheet/Database/etc.

My favorite juice I barely can squeeze the bottle. It takes what seems like forever to fill my tank. It hurts my hand too. I would love to get a labeller. Maybe that should be my next "vape" expense. :) Any suggestions on a good one?

I know what your saying...

it is not the hole in the dropper, it is the bottle, it's 'thick-walled' (better quality)

I have a mix of these, some are very difficult , then the
next one I might grab almost collapses with same squeeze effort...


other choices:

glass and eye droppers
or always the syringe


- 30ml Amber Glass Bottle - MyFreedomSmokes.com

- Syringe with 18 Gauge Needle - My Freedom Smokes

:)

Use or have someone else us an ice pick to enlarge the bottle dripper hole or cut off the tip a bit. Be careful if you use the ice pick... take the dripper part off the bottle and put it on a cutting board or something... actually safest to do it in a can or jar in case of a slip. Personally, I would cut it like I do super glue, calking, etc. Anyway, that way it will just run out in drips if you angle it right without having to squeeze.... that or use a glass (oh, can't think what they're called) dripper with the black rubber bulb end. You can get them at most drug or craft stores.

Had to be done. ;)

Walgreens gives away syringes at the pharmacy; no needles of course. They are baby medicine dropper things. They work really well.

I do something similar to that Lee. It's a squishy gak sort of stuff in different strengths. :( I unfortunately I have carpal tunnel right now. So my hands are so weak I cant even use those right now. I have a few of them in different strengths. It sucks really bad because I am a fiddle/guitar/string player so it's effecting my career. Squeezing a juice bottle is the least of my problems.

I did however find a solution. I bought some easy squeezy needle bottles for a buck a piece and the guy behind the counter hid from his boss and printed me some labels on his label maker cause I asked so nicely. :)

Sounds like I am Late in that you got some Other Bottles. But I'll throw this out there for Anyone else having Problems with hard to squeeze Bottles.

And that is if you take a Straightened Out paper Clip or a Fat Sewing Needle and Ram it down the Drip Hole of your Bottle, it will make you Bottle Much Easier to Use.
