I'm looking to make some juice using 72mg nice salt nicotine, can anyone recommend a calculator to use? I'm trying to make 20mg 70/30 VG/Pg.

Bob was telling me a lot about this at the last LDN meet maybe he could help, I didn't get the impression you needed a to use a different calculator.

Yep, a normal ejuice calculator, the calculations are exactly the same, the only difference between nic Salts and normal nic, is the steeping time

I don't know however if the nic strength of ordinary freebase nicotine is identical to nic salt nicotine. Bob was manly enthused by not needing to steep them as long IIRC, but main point is unlike me he is actually using and selling them, knows his arse from his elbow and sports a very dapper hat. I have heard many claims for salts from sh1te to safercigs you need less mg/ml, obviously not all salts are equal and this maybe our next community learning curve.

I have heard many claims for salts from sh1te to safercigs you need less mg/ml, obviously not all salts are equal and this maybe our next community learning curve. I am actually testing the difference between the Element Ns20 and ZAP Ns18 at the moment, both juices are very similar, being a creamy desert type, and I didn't let either of them steep, in fact I had both with me at the Vape Meet, in my squonkers, the Ns20 is just a touch stronger on the nic, but that would be expected apart from that I see no difference, but yes Nic Salts depending on the flavourings do not need steeping for days on end, ready to go almost straight away with plain fruits after a good shake, and a few hours with the desert types

Another snippet I've come across tonight concerning Nicotine Salts which might be of interest:

Postmodern Smoking I would be using 20% flavour and the nic salt is Pg based. Ideally I'm trying to make either 70/30, 65/35 of 60/40 VG/PG juice?

The highest VG percentage that you can achieve at that strength and flavour is 52.2VG/47.8PG (This is because both your nicotine and flavour are PG based):
[ETA] So, for every 10ml that you want to make, you need 2.8ml of 72mg/ml nic, 5.2ml of plain VG and 2ml of flavour. To make 100ml (i.e. 10 X 10ml) you need 10 times as much.... 28ml of 72mg/ml nic, 52ml of plain VG and 20ml of flavour.
