Hey all,
vaping 5 years and been giving my thousands of dollars to china and to overpriced usa vendors. Time to finally save some money and get with the right community-DIY !....I have to place an order relatively quick as I'm very low on juice...I do vape alot of elquid a day.
I will read the stickies and stuff but for now. I am just going to do a one flavor mix. Last month I did the EZ-DIY where I bought the nicotine premixed with the percent pg/vg I wanted. I vape 32mg so I just bought 36 mg 50/50 pg/vg and added 10 percent flavoring (which was week) and ended up close to 32mg.
Now I want to go 100% DIY. I looked at wizard labs. seems like great prices for nic and pg or vg. I was going to order the 100mg/120ml nicotine they had. It comes in a base of 100 percent vg or pg. Do you get a slightly better deal the higher percent of nicotine you order?
And for flavoring. I was going to bump up to 15-20 percent. My question is, is there a calculator that will tell me how much of what to add. Lets say I just wanted 1 flavor of 32mg of nicotine and I bought the 100mg/ml of nicotine in 100% base of PG. thats whats throwing me off. What does the base tell you? for every 1 ml of liquid I will get 100mg of nicotine but how much PG will I be getting in that 1 ml of liquid? does that make sense?
Im going to probably stay with the flavoring im use to for now as they do sell concentrate but if anyone knows a good site for flavorings please let me know. Ill spend alot of time in this section just want to least get an order out tomorrow.
The price difference is insane! 1 100ml bottle of 100mg of nicotine should be able to produce me close to 300 ml of 32mg nicotine solution. I just would need the appropriate amounts of PG and VG and flavoring concentrate. wow, the markup on premade stuff is insane. Is there anything else I should buy besides the nicotine, pg/vg, and flavoring, some empty bottles and ml syringes??
any help would be so appreciated. I am going to read what I can in this section now so I can get this order in. I paid my dues for 5 years and money is very tight now and I would love to continue to vape as well as eventually explore new flavorings and advanced techniques.
thank you so much. And I apologize for this thread as I really should do my research first. But I thought I had more ejuice left than I do.
