I got 50g of Menthol Crystals from ebay for about £8. I had some from boots aswell for a couple of quid but these had a slightly milder flavour.

Hi All,
After a post from Giles the other day about making my own 0% juice iv been reading for a few days on the subject (i knew nothing!).
So im going to make my own Lemon Menthol (my all day vape).
Now correct me if im wrong, it seems too easy. To make 10ml of juice i just need say 8.5ml to 9ml of base, the rest in lemon flavour. Drop in a menthol crystal and heat in warm water until it dissolves. Is it that easy, surely not?
Also, what would people recommend for the base, pg or vg (diluted with vodka or deionised water)?
I currently buy the 0% lemon menthol from paradise vape, its mostly PG. I dont really get a throat hit from it anymore as its zero nic. Would it be better to go VG?
Cheers all
*edit* Giles has done a huge reply that I didnt even notice! Just reading it now so ill come back shortly, but all advice still appreciated!

Hi All, Not posted in a while but have been reading. Iv just been working my way downwards nic wise and iv finally made it to zero nic!!  Been on zero for about 4 days with no ill effects yet. The thing is, I still love vaping. I want to continue as its a great hobby and I love the community. Over all my orders with various vendors (paradise vape bieng the most common) they have sent me little zero samplers to try, just wondering if anybody had any spare? Obviously willing to pay and any bigger bottles would be appreciated too. Any flavour menthol would be perfect, but not essential Now onto my little list, not much but must go regardless. 30ml Lemon Menthol From Paradise Vape (10MG) - Full Bottle10ml Apple Ice From Paradise Vape (10MG) - Full Bottle10ml Vanilla Menthol From Paradise Vape (10MG) - Full Bottle2ml Menthol From Paradise Vape (10MG)4ml Caramel Cappucino From Paradise Vape (10MG)5ml Grizwalds Arctic Lemon From Vape Escape (10MG)10ml HS Menthol Sensation From Vape Escape (8mg)9ml Original Tobacco From ROK (18mg)Make me an offer or will swap for zero nic stuff Cheers all *EDIT* ALL GONE! |

Sorry for the bump guys but I forgot to reply to say thanks to all!
It was delivered to my office so I left it behind my computer power fan outlet for 30 mins and all the crystal dissapeared as suggested.
James got back to me the next day saying the same thing. So all is well.
Thanks again!

I got an order today from Paradise Vape, fast delivery as usual. Got a few different flavours, one of which was Peachy Menthol. I looked at the bottle to see what looked like a piece of opaque Ice or plastic floating inside on the top of the liquid. I emailed Paradise Vape but havent got a reply yet. It covers the width of the bottle and is solid so it couldnt have got in there during filling. It must have formed afterwards. I obviously havent vaped any of it yet. My theory is the bottle could have froze over night and it has affected the liquid in some way. Anybody know what this thing is? Cheers P.S No more questions today! |

So thanks to Blakey im back on my LR atty for the vivi nova tank.
Most of the time when I vape there is a nice single little pop that seems to release more vapour on the inhale.
This pop just happened as usual but it was a big one and sent (What felt like) an electric shock into my tongue!
It didnt hurt but made me jump!!
Anybody had a similar experience, or can just generally explain what this little pop is?
Cheers
Jack

Hi Guys,
I got the Mini nova tank from vape escape about 3 weeks ago. Put the SR atty in, worked like a champ.
Put the LR atty in, worked for 2 days then after a refill in the morning, dead. No hit at all, no vapour just dead.
Put the SR atty back in worked for about another week before the flavour started to go. All in all I would say the SR atty was in for about 17 of the 21 days iv had this tank.
I put the HR atty in while I wait for a parcel from vape escape (5 more SR attys coming today hopefully).
It has lasted 2 days of 2ml a day before dying again on me this morning. Same symptoms as the LR one, its gone straight after a refill.
Iv tried blowing it out so many times my head nearly popped, I presume i blow back down my drip tip towards the connection to the battery right (disconnected from it of course) and onto some tissue paper.
Any ideas? Is it me or are they duff? Just seems strange that they both go after a refill.
Cheers all
