are those Ke-go batteries regulated at 3.3v or do they start at 4.2v on a full charge and go down?

So you save a fortune then, being able to make those amounts. Yes, I am going to set myself a goal to venture down this path. yep it works out much cheaper than buying pre-mixed Siffy and even better than that..you can tailor the e-liquid to exactly how you like it. those links are top quality B.P/USP/Pharmaceutical grade ingredients and the result of my first batch has been.. perfecto was vaping Hangsen before I tried my first mix and the difference in quality (mostly down to the superb Liquid Crystal I think) knocked my socks off! I read loads before I started & watched lots of youtube vids etc but I think I just over-complicated the whole thing, when I had the stuff in front of me and the e-juice calculator, it was just common sense and using a syringe anyway, plenty of more experienced juice makers than me here who'll be happy to help if you have any questions, when the time comes

I've only just started mixing myself Siffy and like everyone says, it's not difficult at all it's fun and a good feeling when you take that first vape on a juice you've made, knowing exactly what's gone into it. I wanted to keep it simple to start with, I like my menthol/minty vapes & luckily it doesn't get much easier than that. So headed over to "Postmodern Smoking" which has great reviews from other forum members and placed the following order.. Postmodern SmokingThey also have an e-liquid calculator on the site which makes it easy to work out how much of each ingredient you need to use. I also bought.. 1 Litre of Propylene glycol (PG) - £3.99 Pharmaceutical grade PG200ml Glycerin (VG) from Boots - £1.29 Boots Glycerin5g Menthol Crystals - £2.18 Menthol Crystalsso with the 10% discount on Postmodern everything came to about £30 I can make 225ml of 24mg Peppermint Menthol with that lot... or 300ml of 18mg and I'll have plenty of PG & VG left over for the next time I buy Liquid Crystal nic base going to be a bit more adventurous on my next DIY spending spree though

check the knurled air post is pushed right in snug, check the head is screwed into the base properly, like Rom says ..pull out the air post & check the coil/wick hasn't been twisted off to one side by over tightening the battery.
can't see how it can leak really.. is it leaking out the bottom into your battery or are you just getting a gurgling when you vape?

If you want, PM me and I'll pop a brand new, unopened 10ml bottle of Decadent Vapours Menthol in the post to you so you can try it for free . I bought loads of it from ecigwizard when it was 98p but now I'm mixing my own I don't need it. It's 24mg though..not sure what you vape now, might be too strong Andy thank you so much! Just got home and your package was here. Cherry pie to try too, is like the Ferrero Rocher advert, you spoil me. Thank you, seriously, really thoughtful and kind. I closed my eyes, as didn't know which one to try first, and my hand picked menthol, beautiful, leaves a lovely minty taste in my mouth. Will try the cherry pie tomorrow, can't wait. Andy do you like curry, or Mexican food? Using my Takeaway secrets books I have a fab pre spice Indian resturant mix, or a Cajun spice mix that I made up. Please PM me if you want me to send you either. They really do taste fab, and would be my pleasure to send some your way. that's the second time on here someone's called me "Andy" (yes I'm looking at you Perpetua) lol you're welcome Siffy, nice to have options to choose from especially when you're starting out. Will take you up on that offer btw love a good curry & I make a mean burrito, pm incoming!

sounds like a nice flavour (I really like aniseed ) and it looks good, but I must admit that I'm a bit nervous about vaping these highly coloured e-liquids.
