Have you contacted either of them masteedman? I'd imagine most Vendors fill their bottles of flavouring by a machine of some sort, the calibration could be wrong. This happened to me on one occasion and was swiftly remedied by the Vendor. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) It's also worth bearing in mind, that although a bottle might be ' 10ml ' it will probably hold more in reality.

I think a lot of the bottles that look like 10 ml ones seem to hold about 12 ml. I got some 10 ml needle nose bottles for FT the other day and made up some mixes at 10 ml and they were a fair bit shy of filling the bottle. Pretty sure I didn't make any mistakes with my measurements but i guess it's possible or my syringes aren't accurate. I also got 10 mls of custard concentrate from LT ecigs once and the bottle was not full, I think this was a case of the bottle actually holding more though.

i had this from Lf when i 1st started diy....got a few 5ml f'arts and the levels were all different(some being half full others to the top and inbetween) when i contacted them they said it was because they weigh them out as its more a more precise way to measure them
when i thought about it ,it seemed strange as ml is a measure of volume....and different flavouring ingredients must have different weights.

I agree decoy, if you went to a shop to get a 20 packet of fags and once you opened them it only had 19 in it...you would be a tad bummed...so why be any different over bottled concentrate? You have paid for an amount so should get that amount...I know its swings and roundabouts....sometimes you may get a little over....but having more than a few that are under makes a difference!

it dusnt really make a diffrence cause they are all diffrent flavours, its not like one of the bottles had 5 or 6 or 7 ml missing, dont think you would make up the juice and go dam its so lacking in flavour cause of that 0.5 ml that missing haha
