A mixing calculation question

[thebishman]

Hi people

I havent got the brain power to suss this one out.

If i make a batch of 3mg nic juice, but want to pour some out into a 30ml bottle and then add nic to it to make it 5mg...how much nice would i need to add??

Thanks in advance!!

One needs to know the concentration of your nic base to give a figure. If you are using pre TPD 7.2%(72mg/ml) base then I reckon you need to add .83 of a ml. But then I am on my 3rd glass of the red stuff so ignore me.

So a bottle of 30ml 3mg juice needs 0.8ml of nic to boost it to 5mg nic?

No . . . . it's the Ejuicemeup Nic Combine calculator Neil - which is what you're wanting to do.

Yes . . . . or .85ml as per my calculation.

Thats what i make it ok it may be very slightly different due to added extra volume but not enough to worry about mate.

It says 29ml of your 3mg plus 0.85ml of 72mg base should give you 29.85ml of 4.96mg juice.

Mine neither, loathed the teacher . . . . I'd be doomed without calculators!

[Postmodern Smoking]

I concur, around 0.8 - 0.9ml of 72mg/ml nicbase required! :

If you've room ...... 0.89ml of 72mg/ml nicbase added to 30ml of 3mg/ml will take the mix to 5mg/ml




-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If you don't have room, remove 1ml from the 30ml bottle of 3mg/ml e-liquid and add 0.86ml of 72mg/ml nicbase to take it to 5mg/ml

[thebishman]

Thank you postmodern...i didnt think of having room for extra!

Ill have a go tomorrow and see.

Yes calculators are amazing lol

Personally I would not notice the difference between 3 and 5 mg strength.
I use 6 or 9mg for sub ohm stuff and both seem pretty much the same to me and 18mg for mtl.
