Brom instant solubility?

[echo11]

Hi. I've read brom in the past, and I believe it's known for being one of the most difficult ones to dissolve in either pg or ethanol without hot baths or a magnetic stirrer. I recently received some from a well trusted vnd@r here, and it dissolves immediately. I suppose I should contact them, but I'm kinda new around these parts(not new to RCs), and I don't want to blow a good thing. Any advice?

Brom is notoriously hard to dissolve in a solution. In the past the it took a couple of days with hot water baths. But I just got a new batch that is white powder. But haven't gotten a chance to make a solution. Does the vendor have 99 in his name?

I had the same issue. It dissolved in about 10 minutes and I have never had brom go into a solution so easy. I think I may email him and ask. He is really cool. I sent him a quick email. Will let you know what he says.
