    Eye-dropper bottles are available in brown glass from your local chemist for around 70p.. Get two - you may start experimenting with mixes/flavours , but it's good to have one ready-mixed for daily use with your "stock solution".

    Are you kidding? Lower nicotine?! I wish I could just inject the e-liquid (herein referred to as "sweet, sweet nicotine love") into my brain.

    just kidding. Good luck with your kitchen alchemy! And let us know if you come up with any awesome flavor combinations!

    OMG!!!! I should have diluted the juice i vap election night. I laid on our couch and watched the last few hours of the election results, drinking red wine and vaping med nic janty juice...I over did it! And when I went to a meeting the next day and had to speak...I was still feeling really strange, it finally occurred to me that, I may have over did the vaping the night before. Be careful, I find that I vap, when I can a lot more than, I would grab that burning fag here and there...

    Oh yeah it's awful. I have been puffing on this thing non-stop. Normally the end of a cigarette is the "trigger" that says: "Okay, that's enough, next one in a while" or whatever. Nope! Constant supply = screwed.

    Yea I was just saying that sitting here at the computer and vaping is something I will have to get used to.... It is hard to know when to stop. Even when I get to the point where I need to top off, I just keep going..... lol

    On mine, you only get about five or six drags before the battery needs to go back into the charger for four hours.

    This is my cue to go and have a proper smoke.

    In that case, you might need a new battery

    I have one battery that is kind of wimpy and another that seems to last forever (knock wood), both brand new, but even the wimpy one gives me more than 6 drags... But yes, tonight I discovered a good stopping point for me is when I need to charge, even if the thing is still working. If its disassembled, I can't puff it, lol.

    You can calculate the nic level in any mixture using formula:
    (n1*ml1 + n2*ml2 + ...)/(ml1 + ml2 + ...) , where n is the amount of nic and ml amount of liquid. So should you eg. take 1ml 36mg, 1ml 8mg and 2ml PG, youd get (36*1 + 8*1 + 0*2)/(1 + 1 + 2) = 11mg. Or if 1ml 36mg, 2ml 8mg and 1ml PG, youd get (36*1 + 8*2 + 0*1)/(1 + 2 + 1) = 13mg.
    I don't generally see mixing worth it though. Just kills the flavor.

    jigtg......you have completely confused me...I'm horrible at math!

    I just put the glycerin in the syringe from the top and measured it. (no idea why I didn't think of that before instead of trying to use the needle.)

    So far the liquid still has the taste. So 50/50 isn't so bad. Will keep experimenting. Thanks everyone for the help!
