Evening each,
Ccouple of questions, please
1) My nicotine 72mg is going a funny colour so I guess I'm going to be moving to 18mg shots. Is it just a case of minusing enough non-nicotine VG when mixing up a big bottle? It's a pain as I like to mix up my big bottles with all their VG and let them steep before adding nicotine.
2) Any advice on where to get a couple of 100-150w basic mods for around 20 quid each from the UK? I know Amazon have had some fantastic deals recently.....but I've only seen them after they've gone....
Any advice appreciated.

The funny colour, probably is a bit of oxidization.... unless it's turned blue ... in which case WTF !?!?!?! It may still be 'okay'.... depending on whether the taste is off to you in a mix, how it's been stored, etc., etc. If using 18mg/ml nic ... just do a calculation with the help of a mixing calc. app, such as ejuicemeup, bearing in mind that you're limited to how strong the final e-liquid can be. (e.g. if making 9mg/ml eliquid, half of the mix will be 18mg/ml nic-shots!) 72mg/ml nic may still be available, try PM-ing Perpetua , who may might be able to advise.

Like Dave . . . if your current base has just oxidised, it's likely still ok to use. I would.
Try mixing a small bottle using it and see what you think before ditching.
Cloudstix and Fogworks have some good deals from time to time, haven't looked recently but they could be worth checking out:

I've just had to log into my Fasttech account to see when I last ordered anything from there Andy . . . 18th August 2020 for some coils, last year I ordered very little from China for a couple of reasons:
Covid, the shipping delays that caused and because some of our UK Vendors had some excellent deals to equal china prices, it made no sense to buy from overseas. Not that I'd rule it out in the future.
Plus I don't really need anything anyway.

. . . . never Dave.
However, I've not bought a few things recently and astonished even myself.

Picked up a 200w Geekvape nova for 20 quid including free royal mail delivery from VPZ. Very impressed so far. Incredibly light even with 2 batteries. Sides and corners are a little sharp but seems to be a bargain
