Well worth trying unflavoured---it will save you a fortune

To give these result the calculator most be wrong or the input must be wrong -
At this point in time the calculator is asking for the wrong input in some boxes ( mg instead of %) = calculator is wrong



What Strength do you currently vape at?
%---- 0.3
How much ejuice do you consume in a day?
in ml--- 20
What Strength of nicotine are you buying?
in mg ----72
What Size bottle are you buying?
in ml------50 
Calculate
This is how many Years one bottle will last you:
1.64
This is how many Days one bottle will last you:
600


At this point in time to get the right results the % in the "What Strength do you currently vape at % ?" box needs to be changed to mg
or the "What Strength of nicotine are you buying? in mg "needs to be changed to "What Strength of nicotine are you buying? in %

In most cases It should be perfectly safe to use however after 2 years unless stored in a fridge or freezer it is likely to have developed a peppery taste and depending on your finish e-liquid nicotine mg strength this might start to overpower your finished mix

To test DIY nicotine base that has been stood up for an extended period of time first shake bottle next remove the cap and let it stand/breath for a short time then smell/sniff it.

Nicotine base stored at room temp will develop far more smell and will be a darker colour than if it was stored for the same time in a fridge or freezer, this increase in smell and colour does not mean it will be in any way unfit - on the other hand if it smells rank or gives off a very overpowering unpleasant chemical stench then bin it.

I strongly recommend that before you use/open the bottle you give it a good shaking as some USA nicotine VG base has no added water this lack of water makes it very possible for the nicotine part of the liquid to float to the top of the VG (hot spot/ top of the bottle ends up with a very very high nicotine content)

Taxation of "nicotine containing liquids" is the next logical step along the path, it might take 1 year it might take 3 years but taxation will happen at some future date after May 2017.

Nicotine loves to react with oxygen = changes colour and starts to smell
Most of the pure nicotine ( 1000mg) used for e-liquid base is supplied by the producers in 1lt HDPE plastic bottles ---this pure nicotine in plastic bottles comes with a five year best before date ( when stored below 20C and bottle head space filled with an inert gas)*
see photos

DIY Nicotine base does not expand in the freezer you can/should fill your bottles to the very brim and or squeeze HDPE bottles to eliminate as much head space as is possible. Any bottle head space will contain 20% Oxygen gas

Top Tip
When filling any bottles use the right gloves ( nitrile gloves)
Don't be tempted to use Disposable Clear Polythene Food Handling Gloves as even the smallest spill makes these type of gloves incredibly slippy = you will drop your bottles.

I sell Hangsen Toffee at less per ml than zaniy I have converted my price from £ to $ in order to compare the smallest size order of concentrates you could place with them "100ml" against my delivered price for the same 100ml of factory sealed Hangsen toffee in 5x 20ml bottles

me = 5 x 20ml = $26.59
zaniy= 10 x 10ml = $32.70

The other advantages I can offer as a UK seller is i have it in stock + I am willing to sell you just 1 bottle rather than 10 and would be in the post same day if ordered by 3pm
plus the chances are it would be delivered next day

Yes I am aware that if you wished to purchase 300ml or 500ml then Zaniy would work out cheaper per ml.

The aim is to keep the size of the bottle that is in use down to a size that does not require freezing and defrosting
looking at your bottle i would assume it was a 250ml bottle and over the last 8 months you have used around 50ml

In an ideal world based on your usage you should have decanted 50ml or less into a small bottle then squeezed out as much air/head room from the 250ml plastic bottle and stuck that bottle in the freezer.


Picking the right size bottle for your day to day usage over a 3-6month period avoids fresh air (20% Oxygen) entering your larger than required bottle each time the top is remover

If you live in a hot house then keeping the small day to day bottle of nicotine base in a fridge or cool place is a good idea.

You should never keep any of your day to day liquids in the freezer - it makes VG to thick to handle with ease - who want to wait till liquids have warmed up every time before mixing + condensation onto liquid surface if lid is removed to speed up temp rise.
