I ordered some Caramel Blend today. Couldn't find anywhere on the order to put in the discount code, so just added a note at the end of the order. But of course my payment was at the price on the website - no discount boo hoo! As I may make another order in the next few days, can someone please enlighten me as to where the discount option is on the site?  |

I appreciate your help and patience all of you. The reason I needed to have the ingredients to make larger quantities is that I live part of the year abroad where it is impossible to purchase most of the recipe items - the only thing easily available is VG and poor quality juices, or some fairly good quality ready made juices at a very high cost. The postal system is unreliable with things either held up in Customs and subsequent customs fees, or just not delivered at all. It is a postal nightmare. I can't even get an electricity bill through the post although I have to pay for it by DD from the bank. It certainly makes one appreciate the UK Royal Mail service I can tell you. Also wanted to make the mixing a "hobby" whilst abroad having all that I need to hand for those "mixing moments" when I have plenty of uninterrupted time to do so. I will sort it out, never fear. Thanks again.

Thanks for the advice. As usual I am even more confused, so may stick to commercial brands ready to go stuff for the time being. I am sure I will mix very soon as I want to but want to keep it simple.  |

My intention is to make about 300 ml of nic base with an approx nic content of 15-16mg.
First I'd like to buy 100ml of PG nic 54mg.
Then add 100ml of pure VG. Assume this will result in 200ml of approx PG/VG nic base of approx 27mg? Right - or wrong?
What should be the next step to further cut it down to approx 15-16mg? My thoughts are to further add 50ml each of PG and VG but not at all sure. End result is hopefully to be able to decant 10ml at a time of this nic base and to add my preferred flavouring then.
Am I on the right track? My mathematic skills are not the best ???

Thanks Charon. OK so re cleaning the thing out. The head / coil / wick whatever you call it was the one it came with. No idea how to re'wick? and certainly don't have any stuff to do so. In that case do I need to buy new heads? (am struggling with the terminology, can you tell?!). If so what resistance - what's the difference? Am I now officially the most needy newbie on the forum?  I think you are running level with me effington.........so don't worry. I have to say, the people on here are fantastic and so very helpful and seem to have an endless supply of patience. A big thanks to everyone who has helped me  |

No unfortunately. Just the original Ce5 and the original head which I have cleaned and waiting for it to dry - perhaps when it is dry I will reinstate it to see.

Thought I had a Ce4, but turns out it is a CE5 with a changeable atomiser head. Just decided to change to a new head and clean the one I have been using for 10 days now. Old one out - new one in - result NO vape.........HELP PLEASE. I have left it to absorb the new liquid for about 20 minutes, but no luck. No heating up, no vapour Nada!

A dripper/dripping atomiser may be the answer so you can try a little at a time. These let you drip a few drops onto your wick directly through your mouthpiece. I am totally in the dark here . Not only am I a "newbie" but an elderly one too! Is there a video or some photos I can look at to understand it better? |

I will shortly be starting my first own mixes.........but I'd like some advice please as to the best way to taste and adjust......i.e. surely I don't have to fill a clearo, vape/taste then wash it out wait for it to dry etc. before moving on to another of my mixes......  |
