sorry roger i do use a calculator to work out my base to 20mg
my point was all this info just enlarges the room for error .tbf phoenix has it spot on in her 1st post already.

adding 3 more drops of flavour isnt gonna make any difference to a mix as is 16mg isnt gonna give noticable th than 18mg.

best method is to drop 10 drops and a couple of concentrate into a condom and drip to test i find.

I think we are actually agreeing with each other, in a roudabout way.

BTW, with the Breaktru calc, once you have a mix sorted to your satisfaction, you can save it, so you will always have it for the future, handy for tweaking and experimenting.

Also Phoenix, if you haven't already read it, have a look a Grizwalds guide to all things mixing on here, heavy going, but invaluable.

I have read that about 6 times, still confused and get a headache

Im a little concerned so felt i should post

high strength nicotine can be dangerous if it isnt used correctly ...if you are unsure about mixing your own then i would strongly advise against it

if anything, start by buying lower strength nicotine, say 24mg and get accustomed to mixing in the flavours first. once you become comfortable then possibly move up to higher nicotine concentrates and dilute those down

Thanks gordy. I am confident I can do this and take all precautions,;

2x25ml 36mg juice ( should come tomorrow)
100 ml PG mixing liquid
200ml VG
10x2ml bottles of flavoured nicotine - 20% of the mix
10ml bottle sweetener- if needed to reduce the amount of VG
disposable gloves
safety syringe with needle
needle point bottle
3 50ml bottles
1 30ml bottle
2 2 ml bottles
2 10ml bottles

I will be all set to go tomorrow, I just cannot get my head around the ml = %

I am not the type of person that does things willy nilly, I need to understand every process of what I am doing and why and until I get that in my head I will not proceed.

Phoenix . . . those 2ml bottles contain NO nicotine, they are flavourings only, which Rich has suggested you mix at a 20% strength.

Sweetner won't reduce the amount of VG? I'm not sure where you've got that from? VG is quite sweet in itself, so it is unlikely you'll need any further sweetening.

It's useful for mixes that are bitter, not sweet enough . . . it has nothing to do with VG.
