I think some of the flavours are stronger than others. I found apple and coconut to be fairly weak and had to use lots but others like pralines and cream were strong, just a little of these is enough for me.

Please be careful with inhaling colourings Denni, I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to you. I try not to inhale anything that doesn't serve a purpose in vapour, if I could get pure glycerine, propylene glycol, flavour and nicotine without any other additives I'd be happier.

OK, I lay off the cherry for now

The coconut tasted strong--like rancid, burnt coconut oil--probably because it got directly onto the atomiser. Some people smoke Bickford's flavours pure so I thought I could get away with dripping a bit on top of the cart, but I don't think I'll do that again.

Does anyone know if you can buy straight liquid nicotine Im sure you must be able to get it somewhere then we could save a fortune on buying these expensive eliquids and make real homemade juice using VG/PG Nicotine and what ever Extracts suits the User.
Obviously you would need to wear gloves etc as Nic at this level can kill.

I found a few sites stating Nicotine Liquid is found in most US inhalers.

So there must be somewhere selling the pure stuff in the UK

For me vaping is a pleasant alternative to tobacco - and it keeps me off tobacco, which for me is a welcome and long overdue change.

Gardeners in England used to throw their dog-ends into a bucket of water. When the water was suitably murky they used this as a nicotine wash on plants (insecticide). It killed everything in sight, including bees (which we need to encourage - do you want to pollinate a pear tree by hand? No bees - very little pollination).

Nicotine is a nasty alkoloid poison and we really shouldn't muck about with it too much!

Ordinary consumers can't buy pure nicotine anyway, it's too dangerous. The highest concentration we can get without making it ourselves is dilute liquid nicotine of 36mg per ml. One ml of that could kill a child or pet and two ml is enough to kill an adult.

The subject of pure nicotine has been here before, Sanjp, and just know that you don't want to be anywhere near such stuff. It's an assassin's weapon. And while it does exist for industrial purposes, you are not likely to ever be able to buy it (thank goodness). It is no longer even used as an insecticide in the U.S., so there is no consumer source. Understand that, among poisons, it ranks with the most deadly.
