Hi i have some up dates on my prices I have just given ALL my 52mg unflavoured base liquid a small permanent hair cut. But you will no longer receive a spiky thing with every 52mg bottle. Example ----- 200ml of 52mg is now down to £36.98 = £3.01 off but no free spiky thing. I have also given a small hair cut to my larger bottles of PG and VG. Example ---- PG 200ml is down to £5.49

At the moment the costs to the uk are
From not smoking one £6.50 packet of Cigarettes you are costing in lost tax and vat £5.50
If you take the 300,000 people who are said to vape in the UK and multiply that by half a pack a day for a year that comes to over £300milion per year (how many more will get a present of an e-cig for christmas)
300,000 x 365 x £2.75 = £301,125,000.00 in lost revenue
Then if a small percent of us get to live a few years longer and claim the state pension at £4940 per year (will let you do the maths)
This is not all the costs or savings.
I think at some point things are going to change and not in a good way. I am not suggesting that e-cigs will be made extinct but i feel we might be limited to a very small number of government aproved and government licenced venders, who might then possibly sell or be taken over for an offer they would be unwise or unable to refuse (will let you guess who will have control of e-cigs in 2015)
Some of the above are just my thoughts and might not happen.

Hi first dont get hung up with getting the nicotine content spot on you wont be able to tell the diffrence a few mg + or - so i would just make a 50-50 of un flavoured to start with. Start with 5ml of unflavoured PG 54mg strength. Then add of 3ml VG and 2ml PG ( another 5ml in total) This will result in 10ml of 70% PG 30% VG with a finished strength of 27mg. You need to know how strong your flavors are some (mainly the tobacco ones) you will only need 1 drop per 2ml bottle some you will need 8+ drops so best to start off with just 1 drop and work up.

Has anyone ever had a bottle that has gone off! Other than bacon flavour going rancid i have not heard any reports of others turning bad but i would think some must.

The great thing about DIY is the sense of achievement when you make a great mix or improve on one you bought. This might help 1 with any new flavor only add a drop or two then if to weak work up don't assume 20% is about right it might be less than 1%! 2. this can help you to judge if you will get on with a new to you flavor before DIY mixing with it Add a drop or two of the new flavor to a small glass of water take a sip then spit it out this Will give you an idea of what it will vape like this saves you from mixing 5 or 10 ml of something that to you tastes like bog cleaner with a hint of dead thing dipped in honey. Some mixes get better with age so if a fresh mix is not to your taste don't bin it let it sit for a few days or a week or two then come back and try it again. Don't get hung up on getting the nicotine content of your finished mix bang on a few percent plus or minus doesn't matter.

Below is a Copy of post *111 by kurt on the USA site i asumed it was ment to read VG not PG as all the talk was about VG but it now looks from the revised post like the PG from BE is not up to standard also.
Lot number for the BE 100 mg PG, which was actually 121 mg, is 256. Lot number for the BE 100 mg PG, which was actually 272 mg, is 257.
I do not have the lot numbers for the others I posted. Can those people please PM me if they have this info?
The latest details of liquids posted by KURT 100 mg....48 mg (This one was mine, don't know lot #) VG 6/9/11 100 mg....121 mg PG lot 256 7/5/11 100 mg....272 mg VG lot 257 5/29/11 48 mg....78 mg VG lot 257 9/7/11 36 mg....51 mg VG lot 257 8/27/11 48 mg....59 mg VG lot 257 100 mg....98 mg (this was my MFS 100 mg VG) 1/1/10

Had a look at the thread and it looks like it`s just the VG affected and not the PG so chances are that not enough water in the VG ,if the maker has not added enough or any water to the glycerol the nicotine will soon float to the top. For nicotine to stay mixed with glycerol it must have water added or the two will separate making the top of the mix very high in nicotine and the bottom low.so if the vender mixed a 20lt batch and is decanting from the bottom the first 3/4 of the batch will be low in nicotine and the top 1/4 will be far to high hence the diffrent strengths seen in tests
Pure Nicotine mixes fine with PG and stays mixed Pure Nicotine mixes fine with glycerol as long as it has enough water added and it will stay mixed

Dont forget for VG you need a big bore needle try to get a 14g this is the best size for VG smaller than this means it takes longer to suck the thicker liquid up,any size syringe is fine I tend to just use 3ml pipettes for my own DIY mixing very simple fast and easy to clean out in a glass of water as i go. My very very quick mix (this is just how i do it not a guide) 1 Pipette into PG base liquid with Nicotine suck up 3ml then squirt it into a small empty dropper bottle, replace top on PG nicotine base bottle. 2 rinse pipette in cup of water-- two or three pumps and its clean 3 Pipette into PG With NO nicotine suck up 2 ml of PG squirt that also into the same dropper bottle then replace top on PG bottle 4 Rinse again in cup of water 5 Pipette into VG With NO nicotine suck up 2 ml of VG that also goes into the small dropper bottle replace top on VG bottle 6 rinse again in the cup of water 7 Then i Add 3 or 4 drops of tobacco flavour( flavorart) 8 Replace dropper on bottle and in my case screw on spiky thing cap shake bottle i dont steep when i use tobacco flavour so thats me done 7ml of around 22mg made in 30 seconds (was using 52mg base) next refill my clearomizer thing 1 Take fork out the drawer slide the prong down the hole in middle taking care not go in to far damaging the coil then prize out the top of clearmizer and slide it down the prong so it grips the prong. 2 pop the lower seal out same way and also slide it down a prong till it grips. 3 with both seal and mouthpiece still on the fork rinse them in the glass of water or under the tap 4 take spiky thing and slide tip down one fill hole and top up the clearomizer you can use one of the spare tips in the other fill hole as a vent and to show when full, the spiky can suck back any excess liquid 5 Replace both the seals and thats me done refilled in 20 seconds from start to finish

If when any of you search for Propylene Glycol on ebay Dont be tempted with DI-propylene Glycol it is NOT propylene glycol it is Dipropylene Glycol DPG the seller has added a - after Di it is DPG not PG you dont want it for vaping it might look the same but dont use it PLEASE! Also please note technical grade PG is not the grade you need it is to low One seller of cheap PG on ebay has a photo of three sized bottles the labels in the photos say technical grade this is also NOT what you want! Crossed posts there, thanks Gordy. The cheapest on ebay, inc. p & p is £2.99
