Reasons for the unavailability of e-cigarette webshops AI
Donat:
Why are e-cigarette webshops unavailable?
Gilbert:
The unavailability of Hungarian e-cigarette webshops is primarily due to regulatory actions. Due to laws and regulations concerning the sale of tobacco products, many webshops have been blocked in Hungary, making these websites inaccessible with a Hungarian IP address.
The List of Blocked Tobacco Websites also shows that numerous e-cigarette vendor websites are on the blacklist. These sites are typically related to illegal retail activities of tobacco products, which authorities are trying to prevent.
If you want to be sure, using a VPN service is recommended, but it’s important to note that this does not make ordering legal.
Donat:
What shops are on the list?
Gilbert:
The list of blocked tobacco websites includes numerous e-cigarette webshops; here are a few examples:
The blocked sites are generally involved in illegal activities, so access to them is not possible from a Hungarian IP address. For more details and to view the full list, please visit the List of Blocked Tobacco Websites.
Donat:
I understand, and what is a VPN or how do I set it up? What is the easiest way?
Gilbert:
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a technology that allows you to create a secure connection over the internet. It essentially encrypts your internet connections and routes them through another server, thus hiding your real IP address and allowing you to access websites that might be blocked in your region.
Easiest Setup Steps:
-
Choose a VPN Provider:
- There are many VPN providers available. Some popular and reliable examples include NordVPN, ExpressVPN, CyberGhost.
-
Registration:
- Create an account with your chosen service. This is usually a simple process where you need to provide your email address and chosen password.
-
Download the Application:
- Download and install the VPN application on your computer or smart device (many VPN services offer mobile apps).
-
Log In:
- Open the application and log in with your account.
-
Connect to a Server:
- Select the desired country server (e.g., another EU country) and connect to it. This will mask your actual location.
-
Access Websites:
- Now, try to access the websites you want, attempting to reach the e-cigarette webshops again.
Important Warning:
While a VPN can help you access websites, it does not make the order legal. Always inform yourself about local laws before use and be cautious with online purchases!
Liquid Mixing: Composition and Nicotine Calculation AI
Donat:
What composition of liquid will I get if I mix 20ml of 3mg 50/50, 35ml of 6mg 70/30, and 4ml of 12mg 50/50 liquid?
Gilbert:
To determine the composition of the liquid, we first need to consider a few things, such as the desired quantity, nicotine content, and PG/VG ratio.
-
Total Quantity:
- 20 ml (3 mg) + 35 ml (6 mg) + 4 ml (12 mg) = 59 ml
-
Nicotine Content:
- 20 ml x 3 mg = 60 mg nicotine (3 mg/ml)
- 35 ml x 6 mg = 210 mg nicotine (6 mg/ml)
- 4 ml x 12 mg = 48 mg nicotine (12 mg/ml)
Total Nicotine: 60 mg + 210 mg + 48 mg = 318 mg nicotine
-
Nicotine Content Expressed for the Total Quantity:
- 318 mg / 59 ml = 5.39 mg/ml
-
PG/VG Ratio:
- 20 ml 50/50: 10 ml PG, 10 ml VG
- 35 ml 70/30: 24.5 ml PG, 10.5 ml VG
- 4 ml 50/50: 2 ml PG, 2 ml VG
Total PG and VG:
- Total PG: 10 ml + 24.5 ml + 2 ml = 36.5 ml
- Total VG: 10 ml + 10.5 ml + 2 ml = 22.5 ml
Performance: 36.5 ml PG / (36.5 ml + 22.5 ml) = 36.5 / 59 = 61.86% PG
Performance: 22.5 ml VG / (36.5 ml + 22.5 ml) = 22.5 / 59 = 38.14% VG
In Summary:
- New liquid quantity: 59 ml
- Nicotine content: 5.39 mg/ml
- PG/VG ratio: approximately 62% PG and 38% VG
If you have any further questions, I’m happy to help!
Perhaps we can also ask him to introduce himself a bit:
Gilbert's Introduction to the Vaperina Community AI
Donat:
Hi Gilbert
I’m about to introduce you officially, so I’d like you to introduce yourself to the Vaperina Community in a few sentences. Please tell us who you are, why you are here, and what kind of things you can help us with.
Gilbert:
Hello everyone! ![]()
I am Gilbert, the community’s official vape research assistant. I am here to help you with any questions related to electronic cigarettes and the world of vaping. Whether it’s about the latest products, usage tips, ingredients, or vaping safety, I’m here to provide information and support you.
My goal is to provide accurate, detailed, and up-to-date information so you can make informed decisions about your vape usage. Don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions!
Donat:
And why Gilbert? Do you know anything about that?
Gilbert:
Yes, of course! I was named after Herbert A. Gilbert, who was a pioneer of the electronic cigarette. Herbert A. Gilbert patented the first e-cigarette-like device in the 1960s, which he called a “smokeless, non-tobacco cigarette.” His work laid the foundation for the development of electronic cigarettes, so my name pays tribute to his innovative contribution to the vape world.
This is why I was given the name Gilbert, to remind us of this important historical background and the evolution of the vape community.
