Why don't you just vape that as it is welshwestie and start again with a fresh mix at what you really wanted? For that amount of juice made, it's not really worth tying yourself up in knots over . . . imo anyway.  You are so right Perpetua. I'm going to do just that  |

1st of all you have made 8.64 mg strength. Total nicotine added is 0.6 x 72 = 43.2 mg. Your total volume is 5ml so 43.2 / 5 = 8.64 mg/ml strength. Now the PG VG ratio. You have not included your flavouring which is normally PG. You have a total 2.75 PG and total of 2.25ml VG. So ratio is 55 PG to 45 VG. (100/total vol x vol PG) to (100/total vol x vol VG) In your second suggested mix you have 0.35mg nicotine total in your 2ml Add 5ml + 2ml =7ml. Add nicotine up.. 0.35 + 43.2 = 43.55mg. Divide total nicotine total volume = 43.55 / 7 = 6.22 mg/ml ...close enough. Now the pg ratio! Total PG = 2.75 + 1.5 + 0.4 = 4.65ml Total VG = 2.25 + 0.1 = 2.35 ratio is 66.4PG to 33.6 VG. Gosh I like doing things the long way, I am sure there is an easier way with the maths - have not checked all my figures are correct. |

Thank you both so much for your help. Oxo I have got some syringes with blunt needles, but with me only trying to mix a small amount I thought in my wisdom that I'd use a dropper. I won't make that mistake again. OneDay, I have done what you suggested. I have put it away for a few days and hopefully it will be good stuff. I'm going to be trying a couple of flavours together next time  and work my up to some of the lovely juices others make on here. I expect I'll be asking for a lot more help too  . Thank you again, very much appreciated. |

Can someone help me out with a simple mix please? I got myself in a right knot on my first attempt. i have made 5ml of espresso juice 50/50 at 8mg, I wanted 6 mg at 70pg 30vg with a strong flavour. For the 50/50 I used 0.6 ml of 72mg Nic in VG...12 drops 2.25ml PG...45 drops 1.65 ml VG...33 drops 0.5 ml Capella espresso...10 drops. i was wondering that if I made 2ml at 4mg strength and more flavour using 0.1ml 72mg Nic in VG...2 drops 1.5ml PG...30 drops 0.4ml Capella espresso...8 drops, mixed them together would this give me roughly 7ml of 70 PG 30 VG at about 6mg with strong flavour or should I just mix 2ml without any nic? It's a good job I didn't try and make anything adventurous for my first go, I was thinking about it  Thank you in advance for any help. |

I can't believe I've just lost a full tank of juice for the third time today. I knocked the first one off the unit after filling it this morning. It went everywhere, even on the dog. The second one i was getting out of the car and forgot i had the spinner on my knee, it flew out across the car park and broke the Nova top clean off. Now I filled a tank with the last of my black jack, put it on my vamo but thought I'd check first to make sure the connection was clean and i unscrewed the tank apart. Think I'd better go to bed, it's getting a bit expensive  |

There is a DID for sale tonight. I had a look and it is an atomiser but nothing to say what it means.

Hi intelicide I'm using a vamo at home and a spinner when I'm out and about which isn't often. I use nova atties because after trying others I much prefer them and they are really easy to rebuild. There is a b&m near to where I live, Vapes UK in Wrexham that I pop into now and again mainly to just oggle at all the lovely shineys (please excuse the spelling).
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to ask on this thread but have you any idea what would be the best atty, if that's the proper term for me to start dripping with? I'd like to try a lot of different juices but don't want to be filling up a tank and finding I don't like it. Thanks for any suggestions.
