Refilling my tank with Ry4 as I read this...

Which makes me wonder...how are they going to decide what is 'tobacco'.

Not sure how all this stuff works, but I'm guessing this bill goes in front of parliament and then they vote on it? Might be time to start sending some emails.

That was my thought. Would NETs be tobacco flavors?

I had the same thought regarding what defines a tobacco flavour. Surely if taste is subjective as long as you call it tobacco you could put whatever you want in the bottle. We'll see if/when the act gets drawn up I guess

It's all a bit sad, eh.. DIY is awesome though, I just really hope they don't ban concentrates/unflavoured nicotine in the coming months.

For any kiwis getting into vaping, 'mixeology vapes' are nz based and a good supplier of unflavoured nicotine, as well as purenature for both VG and PG. Flavours unfortunately need to be bought from overseas, but Bullcity flavours is super cheap and good value as well.

Not so much. We get a lot of our nic (and juices that contain nic) from NZ. I'd say most of us get our Flavour concentrates in Aus. Readily available.

American and uninformed about New Zealand. Loved Lord of the Rings, you have a beautiful country. I’m new around here but you should help each other figure out which safe vendors can ship to you, and figure out how tight the regulations may become on all aspects of vaping from diy juices to mods and tanks. I suggest rtas, safe batteries, and safe mods. There are plenty of easy recipes, calculators and safety tips in this sub for handling and storing various components of your juices. Try not to go overboard with purchases, I sat down yesterday and minimized my costs across only three companies. I know it’s a lot and it’s bullshit but this is an opportunity to cut out the middleman for those willing and hopefully able, for the time being. I hope it doesn’t go haywire like it is here, but if it does, the tools are here.

The kiwis love their flavours as much as we Aussies do and I’m sure there’s many politicians over there that love to vape too. I don’t think it will pass legislation.

They’ve also spent millions trying to legalise vaping so it’s not going to change now. I think?

Seems very unlikely to me, there just isn't widespread support for it, and our health ministry even supports it. Like, you can vape in our public hospitals...

Let's get this bill beached

I'm vaping Shift's Vanilla Tabacco Custard right now. I really wonder where the limit on "tobacco" flavored is. Also what is to stop them from selling flavors separately in tiny bottles to add to your vape anyways?

Hell, this might even open up a whole new market.

For sure, it will turn into a black market of flavoured juices, that have fuck knows what in it.

1 points
 
by Schroedinbugabout 6 years ago

Or just sell 0 nic flavored E-juice and high nicotine in VG/PG right next to each other. Black markets make everything better right?

That can't be the reason that most of these deaths were THC oils in areas where THC is illegal... /s

Na bro, definitely not the fact that some random guy is making the THC oils in his bathtub. And having supreme and fortnight logos on its packaging. 100 percent not advertising to kids

I guess it might make someone hesitate to buy nicotine in strong amounts i.e 100 mg. But in reality they can just mix it themselves. Also means none is gonna die, since it’s regulated and made in a clean room. (That’s what I do, I buy 0mg juice from the shop, and mix the nicotine in myself that I imported from NZ) (I’m Aussie)
