The points raised were: Anti-democratic nature of TPD. Lack of any assessment of impact Banning of basically everything on the market
Increasing minimum pack size of cigarettes.
Response: copy and paste crap not addressing the issue. Unfortunately the SNP is very pro-Europe.

Just got what was clearly a copied and pasted reply from my MP. Which did not address the issues I raised.
I already knew she was an oxygen thief so this was no surprise.

I bought a DNA 200 mod from Zippy. There were no problems at all, the device was a good price and arrived well packed and promptly.
Thanks @zippydodah

Good plan!
A list of common densities would be a good place to start.
Propylene glycol is about 1.04 grams per cubic centimetre.
VG varies depending on supplier but is around 1.26 grams per CC.
Flavourings can be treated as PG for density purposes.

Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) cells are much safer than LiCo or LiMn cells. There are videos around of LiFePO4 battery packs being shot up - and LiMn ones. AFAIK nobody has had LiFePO4 cells kaboom or even vent with flame.
They fail benignly. They have a lower terminal voltage - fully charged at 3.6V. And hold less energy than a same size LiMn (IMR) grenade would.
Quite a few military use packs use phosphate cells.
Sad thing is that the best manufacturer of the things A123 systems went bust a couple of years ago.

In case nobody else has said those are protected Panasonic cells. The protection circuit will probably trip around 4A so OK for 15W mods but no more.

Discharge the ones that aren't already, tape over the ends and send the box to the internal battery recycling place at work when the box hits 5kg. I have 468 mostly AA's sitting there waiting to get sent off in the internal mail.
I feel sorry for the internal mail guy the day I send in the UPS batteries for recycling.

Me, I'd coat it with 3 coats of tung oil or the cheaper variant Danish oil to bring the colour out, let that dry then use a dead matt varnish on it to make it juice resistant.

Oxygen certainly has a part to play in one of my mixes. When mixed at 20% flavour and 50:50 PG:VG it tastes ghastly and metallic. After 6 months in an oxygen impermeable (glass) bottle it was still vile. When decanted into plastic bottles and allowed to age (I left the caps on) it was very pleasant after a month. Oddly enough, the same flavour (Solubarome Apple Crumble) when mixed only with Vg is vapable straight away.
I am far from convinced that homogenisation is the only thing going on. I reckon there are various chemical reactions slowly happening as well.
Not having access to fun stuff like spectrophotometers and GC/MS devices any more, I can't confirm this.

A juice dispenser that was capable of mixing up whatever I wanted Shouldn't be that hard. A bunch of syringe drivers or (better) metered peristaltic pumps, a magnetic stirrer. IEEE 488 interfaces which used to be standard on decent lab gear, IEEE 488 interface for a Raspberry Pi and a bit of software and you're sorted. Should be doable for the price of a used car. Unless you use syringe drivers, they cost about a grand each.
