Recommend you recheck as off the top of my head this looks way out* --- would expect around 2 months from 50ml of 72mg @ 20ml per day of 3mg finished --


*if true 1000ml would last you 32 years!!!!!!!

I can't see how 1litre of nic would last 32 years tbh

To give these result the calculator most be wrong or the input must be wrong -
At this point in time the calculator is asking for the wrong input in some boxes ( mg instead of %) = calculator is wrong



What Strength do you currently vape at?
%---- 0.3
How much ejuice do you consume in a day?
in ml--- 20
What Strength of nicotine are you buying?
in mg ----72
What Size bottle are you buying?
in ml------50 
Calculate
This is how many Years one bottle will last you:
1.64
This is how many Days one bottle will last you:
600


At this point in time to get the right results the % in the "What Strength do you currently vape at % ?" box needs to be changed to mg
or the "What Strength of nicotine are you buying? in mg "needs to be changed to "What Strength of nicotine are you buying? in %

Sorry, the calculater may well be wrong and I'm probably too thick to see that, but I still can't see 1 litre lasting our friend 32 years

Ok have just looked at the nic calculator and the input data has changed like it says above
Now i get for 3mg nic strength at consuming 20ml a day . 1No. 50ml bottle 72mg nic will last 0.16 years or 60 days which is rougly give or take a few ml 300ml per year. When i 1st looked  at it was as shown above.
Thanks for all posts people  its helped me out, although to be honest  I could now do with a few pointers as to where i could buy nic in bulk(if thats allowed)

So after a hard read I think ive got this right i aim for 3mg nic in my juice which is 0.3% by volume using around 20ml total each day of juice off the calc it says 1 50ml bottle will last around 1.6 years (roughly). Is this correct?
Also ive read a lot about storing nic in the freezer kinda a horrifying thought TBH but.... What do you do put unopened nic bottles into tupperware box lid on etc and just bang it in a corner of the chest freezer.( I have a vision of a box wrapped in cling film covered in tin foil )

I have to apologise.
I am thick and I read this wrong.
I thought you were actually saying it would last 32 years and not at the wrong calculations.
I'm really sorry for misunderstanding

Finally my schedule gave me a window to get sorted.
Got a litre of Darkstar 72mg on the way (fingers crossed), some VG and a bit of PG.
Also chucked some TFA RY4 into the basket, on a gamble (coz it wuz cheap) and read afterwards that is quite highly rated.

Anyhoo, barring disasters at 2-3ml per day of 20mg, that should be me sorted for a good while, though I can't help feeling I should get a bit more soon

*Bump*

Just a reminder that if you haven't already put away some nicotine base stocks, do so NOW, while you still can.
(From what I can make out, from info from the MHRA, it won't be available for much longer).

I bought a litre of 72mg nic from Darkstar end of October for £40.
Today, one month later and after the November TPD deadline it's come down to £31.
Go figure

Take heart that soon it won't be available at all, and £40/L is still a great price.

Personally, my brother and I have just bought 5L from EL at about £38/L, because we know it's source; whereas DS don't say who makes their nic in the US.

Despite the great job you're doing banging the drum about this topic Postmodern Smoking, I still think this part of the TPD will bite a great number of vapers on the botty. Last Friday I had a driver at work on a rant about his latest juice delivery coming in 12 x 10ml bottles. When I said the vendor was being TPD compliant , his answer, yep you've guessed it "what the F@#k is TPD" how many more will say that in the weeks/months to come. Here's a thought for all the people who don't DIY. If finances allow, buy a litre or even half a litre and stick it in the freezer. In the not too distant future you might just be glad you did.

Not that many years ago I was ( along with many others ) happily paying over £70 a litre from Nicvape in the US . . . . . stock up, stock up whatever the current UK price.

It makes sense.

In a few months Perpetua, £70 a litre will seem like a bargain. Fail to prepare = prepare to fail.
