Hi fieryjax and  Just to get this straight on what you purchased. You got Platinum Ice Nic Base ( was this PG or VG based ) ? You got flavourings ( most likely PG based ) You got VG dilutent If your Platinum Ice was PG based, you should be OK Depends on what nic percentage the Platinum Ice was you purchased too and what nic target mg you want to vape My reason for saying you may be ok is that I rarely add any PG dilutent - I just tend to use my 72mg PG nic base, flavouring(s) and VG Dilutent and I end up around 50/50 or 60/40 I had Plat Ice 54mg I think? Definitely the lower one and PG based, I thought if the nic had PG in it already I was ok? Am I to take it then that if it is a higher mg nic it will have more PG in it? The TW site states that you need just 3 things so that's what I ordered. I did look to check but could see no mention of possibly needing 4? The site is a bit hard to navigate sometimes as the info isn't all at the top..you have to click on things and stumble across the info you need! Thanx for all your help though I don't feel so alone and muddled up now.  |

Hi again djs, Don't think I can as it was just the flavours that were on the Yoyo but if I had ordered them separately I would have had to pay postage on each one I think and didn't want to risk it. Can I ask though why you dislike them so much? Just out of curiosity? (By the way I tried their Cherry flavour and it was very 'chemically' tasting.  |

Aww thanx for the lovely gesture Blownupdolly! I'm in Staffordshire Moorlands, one of those green welly peeps Although I wouldn't mind seeing what Essex is like, some beautiful countryside there I believe? Wanted to put a smiley with some flowers on for you but it just said 'flowers'..not quite the same! |

Hi Blownupdolly, Yes sadly! I'm finding it quite expensive too but would rather have this than the stinky stuff. |

Hi everyone! Im Jax and I started vaping on 16.12.13. My son and his GF introduced me to it and I haven't looked back since. My son ordered it from Totally Wicked in separate parts as he knew what he was doing but TW thought he was ordering it for himself and didn't send instructions..hence I've spent hours on the internet and Youtube trying to learn what I should and shouldn't do and also to find out what all the parts are called! I had a couple of teething problems at first, I thought my battery had packed in as I couldn't get the red light to come on to show it was charging. Back to Youtube to see if anyone could advise me about batteries..after gently lifting the battery to make a good connection and cleaning everything, (with no joy) I decided to try to attempt to get my son on the phone to help me. A long phone call later I discovered that the battery was already charged so that was why no red light. The problem was the atomiser, I changed that and it was ok. The other problem was the plastic 'thingy' that holds the fluid kept leaking so after deliberation I ordered a stainless steel tank as an upgrade. While I was waiting for delivery of that, the plastic one decided to make a fool of me and has never leaked since.  My problem now is that I keep running out of juice so thought I would try DIY mixing. This decision might not have been a good one.. I went onto their site to look at the info, saw that they say you need 3 things, Nicotine, Flavouring and Diluent. Seemed simple enough at the time..but..The diluent shows the bottle and a drop down box with a choice of AG, Glycerine (VG) and PG. The flavouring I was buying was on what they call YOYO in which the price rises and falls, you have to pick it while it's low and complete your sale within a time scale or it all cancels out and you have to start all over again. I ordered Platinum Ice nicotine, my 5 flavourings, then saw the drop down box for the diluent. I had to complete my order quickly and ordered the Glycerin as it said (VG) next to it. My question is..Do I need Glycerin AND PG or is the Glycerin sufficient as a diluent on it's own? Apologies for so much detail in my first post but I thought if I explained properly it may help another 'newbie' who may encounter the same problems. Thanks in advance for any advice that you might give..and Happy Vaping!  |
