Thanks all. I needed something to cheer me up, not long out of hospital (some sort of gut problem, really laid me out, but quacks don't know what it was) Feel up to joining in again and have been meaning to get one of these for ages.

I've ordered my starter kit cause want to give this a go. But a bit confused with the calculator. I thought if you had 54mg pg you mixed it with vg. But looking on the calculator you have 3 things excluding flavour and sweetner. Nicotine ejuice PG VG Am I reading it right or is it that I've just not studied enough yet to make my own lol bazzer343 it all depends on the final mg you want and at what ratio. Even though your nic base is in PG, you will probably need PG & VG dilutants to achieve what you want. A 70/30 mix at 10mg will need more PG dilutant and less nic base than a 70/30 at 20mg. That will use more base and less PG dilutant. Just put the figures in the calc and see what it says

As a basic calc that is OK, but its major flaw is that it does not have anywhere to input your required PG/VG ratio, just makes the maths a bit more difficult. Good luck bazzer343 A simple one flavour is the best way to start, not boring at all.

Aha.... I have read quite a lot regarding peppery taste of PG Base. I cant really smell/taste anything from the base itself, however I get a slight peppery taste when I vape it. I doesn't overpower my flavoring, and it isn't particularly unpleasant, but I can detect it is there. I read quite a lot on other forums re a peppery taste, so I'm not overly concerned and I've been using this base for 3 months now and it hasnt done me any harm what so ever. It may be batch related, who knows... maybe I should order some more for a comparison?? That is not an uncommon thing, the taste. I think balllsy is more concerned about the strong smell, especially when others bases do not smell strongly. Interested to have a look (and test) of it.

75mg is the legal limit to import/buy. Above that you need a poisons licence. How was yours from pirate BTW? Haven't tried it yet Roger.......I'm hoping it'll be fine as he's quite handy & saves the USA route.........although I had arranged to collect 1ltr off him at Vapefest, but it didn't happen. I've had a 250ml and a 500ml off him, both fine and a very good price. If required the data sheets are available from him.

Perhaps as a sub board off the lounge, or members only. Not a bad idea though.

I hope your working in a well ventilated area, 72mg is very strong, sniffing the fumes is not really advisable. Thank you for your contribution.

Thanks for the replies guys. Sounds to me like its a dirty base then Roger PM me your address and I'll send you a sample thankyou. It's pirates vape branded. I don't like tobacco flavours so looks like i have a litre of unusable liquid if that flavour is carried through to the final mix. Interesting, he doesn't do dirty base (AFAIK) and the stuff I've had from him has all been OK. PM sent.

Handy link, but not overly helpful in this case. As I said before, all mine are a slightly different colour. ETA I have some of a testing kit left, so I'll give it a go.

Balllsy I've had a sniff of mine, no real strong smell at all. 3 different ones as well all 100% PG 52mg from cig-eliquid, pale yellow 50mg from Nic Vape, pale yellow 72mg from Pirates Vape, slightly darker colour. Where did you get it? and could, as suggested earlier it be a 'dirty base'. I would make up a small amount, possibly unflavoured and see how it turns out. I would be happy to check it for you if you want.
