hi was wondering about these is it possible to put a standard single coil in or easy to re build a double coil bear in mind I'm only starting to do normal ones in next couple of days when my stuff arrives or can you rebuild the dual coils as singles
thanks

On what basis do you choose pg nic or vg nic im not sure what I like as I've only really had cheap market/newsagent juice so thinking 50/50 any in my small mind thinking well pg is more expensive than boots vg so better to use pg nic? The choice was made for me really c1booth as I became PG sensitive after 18months of vaping . . . so I keep all my mixes as VG heavy as I can. If you buy a high nic base in either - 72mg is good, then that gives you more options to tinker with your ratios than a lower one does. And is there one place that is always cheaper than the rest or is it a shop around thing |

Do you have to dilut the stuff from boots? As per the gents I don't dilute it . . . that's with a VG Nic Base, there's even less need if you're using a PG one. I don't bother with needles on syringes either for it ( or anything else ), normally I'll decant some off into a cup and syringe up from that.

Haha thought I was onto a winner there putting off starting to mix my own for a couple of month because of the initial outlay that vendor does good starter kits I know but I've spent 150 since Christmas on new gear and stuff to start making my own coils so spent a lot and a lot to learn with coils so I'm thinking 1 thing at once |

Is nic base really that cheap from there He's saying if you buy the 250ml nic from that vendor you will use 21ml of it to make 150ml of juice at 10mg strength, the cost of the nic in the mix is about 1.40.

+1again for mixing your own red Astaire, it really is simple. Many of us mix it. Useing a 30 mil bottle of concentrate £9 Nic base if you buy 250 mil from everythingliquid approx £1.40 Vg + pg £1 Max So 150 mil @20% conc and 10 mg 50/50 for £11.40 ish if you Diy it. Red Astaire V2 Test To make 150.0mls @ 10.0mg Nicotine(Mls) Base Nicotine - 20.8 PG : - 45.0 VG : - 54.2 Red Astaire - 30.0 Total Flavouring - 30.0 Expected PG:VG Ratio - 50:50 Actual PG:VG Ratio - 50:50 Is nic base really that cheap from there |

I have tried other VG suppliers, but, to be honest, Boots does me fine. As linked above, you can maybe save upto £1 per litre, but then you have to store the stuff too. If I'm running low, I can just pop into Boots, and get another 200ml bottle that I don't really have to worry about how I'm going to store it for the next year or so. Sure, you can save a small amount of money, but that isn't really everything. +1 to this.  All my mixes are VG heavy, I vape a reasonable amount in a day . . . . yet I'd be surprised if I got through 4 x 200ml bottles in a year. Do you have to dilut the stuff from boots? |

c1booth I've just had a root about in my drawers  and I've found a couple spare  1 unused and a couple that aren't in packaging but don't look burnt out? I'd suggest a soak in vodka would be an idea (I cant spare any of my vodka as I'm drinking it!) I've also got a spare 306 drip tip so you can have them Just message me your home address and i can post them on to you  they are great little things, saves you filling a tank with a juice you discover you loathe Thank you very much fantastic forum great advice no sarcasm or annoyance with newbies and very generous people thanks again Pepperty |
