I apologize in advance for the length of this post, but I feel that it is necessary to explain all the details of the results. There is a TL;DR at the end.
I recently ordered a certified GC/MS lab report from Energy Control that was done on one tab of alleged "200 mcg" blotter acid from BlueViking on a Marilyn Monroe print. This blotter is NOT the "300/350 mcg. 'Hero Dose'" blotters which were sold on the same artwork. I have spent many hours deciding whether to notify BlueViking of this report, or going directly to this sub. I have decided, rightly or wrongly, to give the results to the sub instead of notifying the vendor first.
According to Energy Control, these 200 µg blotters contain only 91 µg of LSD (true LSD, and not AL-LAD as someone speculated in a post several days ago). In a previous correspondence, the Energy Control lab tech told me that they are able to distinguish between active amounts of LSD 25 and inactive amounts of iso-lsd, so this amount only represents the active molecule; they did not disclose how much inactive iso-lsd, if any, the blotter contained. It appears that BlueViking is advertising his LSD to be twice as strong as it really is. In other words, he is underdosing his tabs by more than 50%.
If someone else has another interpretation of these results, please say so. I'm not quite sure how BlueViking could dispute a certified lab analysis of his product. I suppose he could say that this whole post is bullshit, or perhaps that it was "one bad lay" . . . who knows. The tab was mailed to Energy Control shortly after receipt from BlueViking. In the interim, it was stored in a cool, dark, dry place, and was securely wrapped when mailed to Energy Control to prevent any degradation or breakdown of the LSD.
A note about FUD: there is no doubt that I could be one of BlueViking's competitors, or a burnt customer trying to sully his reputaion. I am not. I have no axe to grind. One of the mods suggested I post from a throwaway for anonymity, but I regularly post/comment here. I could get a mod to verify this if need be. I simply believe that it is good for the community to see the most popular vendors' tabs tested. Make no mistake: BlueViking is vending pure LSD, and his service, delivery time, and stealth is among the best in the business. But that does not excuse him underdosing his tabs by more tha 50%.
I know we speculate that "all vendors" underdose their tabs, but a recent Energy Control analysis of Peaceful's tabs, as well as recent analyses by the LSD Avengers, show that there are a variety of vendors who lay their tabs within 5-10% of their advertised dosage. Underdosing tabs by more than 50% is inexcusable. However, there will always be those who accuse positive reviewers as being shills, and those who say that overly negative reviews are from vendors trying to destroy their competition's reputations. I am neither.
I have linked to the only document that Energy Control sent me with my email. It is what appears to be a quantitative analysis, and not a qualitative analysis (basically they sent me a graph of what the GC/MS showed, and not a report describing the results). It is important to note that nowhere in the attached document did Energy Control quote the dosage as 91 micrograms. The only mention of that specific dose is in the original email I had with the original lab assistant at energy control, which I've included at the end of this post. I can forward the original email from Energy Control to a mod if that would help with verification/authenticity. Again, there is no way of determining the dose of the blotter that was sent in solely from the attached quantitative analysis without some serious chemical research skills. I did read a previous lab test of peaceful's LSD, I believe, that included both a quantitative and a qualitative analysis. Some posters felt that Energy Control's inclusion of the qualitative analysis was in error; in any event, Energy Control never sent me one.
EDIT -- After asking Energy Control for the qualitative report, the lab tech said he will ask for it and write me back ASAP. So I can add that when I get it.
As I said, I have ruminated for hours on whether or not to disclose this report. I have nothing against BlueViking, and he has provided superior service to countless customers. However, I believe this analysis needs to be shared with the broader community. If I feel that this is a topic of interest I will answer what questions I can. If I feel like I am doing more of a disservice to the community by posting this or if I feel that my opsec is in any danger, I will delete the post. As a final note, if any good-hearted redditors spot an opsec error that I missed that might dox me, please let me know. Thanks for listening, guys.
TL;DR: A tab of alleged 200 mcg. LSD from BlueViking was sent to Energy Control for analysis, it came back as containing only 91 mcg. of LSD. BlueViking is advertising his tabs as twice as strong as they really are; or, in other words, he is underdosing his tabs by more than 50%.
P.S.: I've also attached a redacted copy of the email Energy Control sent me; the grammer is bad because this is a Spanish lab, and English is not the lab technician's first language.
P.P.S.: Much props to Energy Control for providing this service. It's pricey, at around 70 bucks per analysis, but I feel that it is more than worth it for the benefit it provides to the enitre community. I whole-heartedly recommend their service.
Here is the original, redacted email from Energy Control containing the dose information:
Here are your result. We apologise for the delay, we had a technical issue but it's now completely solved. Sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding. Sample code: XXXX LabCode: XXX Result: LSD 91 µg Attached you'll find the graph of the quantiative analysis performed with GC/MS. The quantitative result was made with a calibration curve from a reference standard. We are launching our service and for us, it would be important to have positive feedbacks. In case you are satisfied with our service we would appreciate that you comment about it in any of these links and talk about it to people you know: (clearnet web address) (web address) Thank you :)
Quantitative Analysis:
Hi bababooyey123-
Could you please provide the information or graphic which shows the results you posted are related to the tab sold by our shop?
I would be more than happy to provide a response but first would like to see the lab's descriptor of the tab being tested.
Thanks
BV
