Non-Childproof Amber Glass Bottles

[X&Y]

Hi

Recently i've been struggling with getting the childproof caps off of my Darkstar nic stash and the same with my juice storage bottles that i purchased from Boots.

Does anyone have a source for NON childproof screw bottles that i can use.

Looking for 300ml/500ml size, if possible.

I would say even just caps, but the lack of success this evening has led me to wonder if my stash can be saved

There's no children or pets or anything to worry about, just me and the missus and our seemingly ageing hands

Thanks

Ampulla sell caps on their own... but you need to know the cap size.

Abbreviations are CR - Child resistant (which you have stated you don't want), T/E - Tamper evident

Hi Dave

Thanks, i had a feeling you might have been there to offer some advice.

I've got no idea about cap size.

They are 500ml bottles from Darkstar and 300ml Boots bottles.

I'm happy to buy new bottles complete with screw lids if it makes things a bit easier

Just thought, maybe a couple of cheap bottles of German plonk (they like an amber bottle) with screw lids, maybe the answer, once emptied

I haven't either bottle to measure.... have you a ruler?
... although the German plonk bottles seem an attractive solution.... too bad that you'll need to empty them first!

Got the tape measue out

At a loose guess i'd say outer edge to outer edge of the neck 23mm

Any good?

It's maybe 24mm (there doesn't appear to be a 23mm standard cap) www.ampulla.co.uk/Shop-For-Aluminium/Caps-And-Taps/24mm-Black-Ribbed-Screw-Cap/p-168-116-3172/

Thanks Dave

I reckon that's the one.

My peepers aren't what they used to be.

I'm getting older.

I'm now under-estimating stuff, rather than over-estimating and bragging.

You only get found out in the end lol

Thanks

Ahhh, and I thought it was just me with the Darkstar nic bottles. It's an absolute nightmare for me.. really.

X&Y I'm gonna give these a go-

I find the chemist in the village cheapest, it was about 33p for a 300 ml bottles and CP cap a couple of years ago, they are happy to order so just choose cap then or buy on line they are a couple of standard sizes, not the smallest one. The cap from 200 ml Boots VG or a bottle of coke, vinegar and 101 other liquids fit my brown bottles.

Took the plunge and ordered new bottles, complete with adult friendly caps.

If it helps anyone these are 500ml and 28mm cap from Ampulla.

Sod the expense. no more fighting with child proof caps

Now the battle to decant starts.
