Advice required on puriest E-liquid and where to buy - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

Hello,

Sorry if thisis the wrong place. I first staterted smoking fromt he age of 9 and enjoyed 50-60 cigarettes a day.

I am disabled and don't get out much, so reading and smoking is a real pleasure for me since a very long time. I do it now more guilt free using my new device which is very satsifying and cheaper than my real cigarettes.

I am on a low income and so wanted advice on liquid diy.

1> Is it easy
2> How cheaper / economical is it compared to buying new catridges
3> Where can I get the best liquid diy from ( UK only please ).

I am using the nucig advanced pro 2 and very happy with it since it arrived at the back end of August which was recommended to me by a friend who has been using it since Christmas and no longer smokes real ones.

Any advice most wlecome.
Thank you

Hello Maureen,

Is it easy
Yes, anyone with normal dexterity and fair eyesight should have no trouble refilling cartridges.

How cheaper / economical is it compared to buying new catridges
I see the NUCIG price is £10.99 for 10 cartridges.

NUCIG Refill cartidge packs

Their price for liquid is also £10.99.

The bottle size is not stated, but let's assume it's 10ml. At 20 drops per milliliter that would be 200 drops. If it takes 10 drops to refill a cartridge, then one bottle of liquid would equal 20 cartridges. Quite a savings!

Where can I get the best liquid diy from ( UK only please ).

Totally Wicked e-Liquid is very good; I use it myself and have no concerns about its purity.

iVapour has Janty liquids. I've only tried the RY4 but I like it very much, as do many others here at the forum. Janty has a very good reputation for quality.

Intellicig has ECOpure liquids, which are manufactured in Lancashire. They are probably the purest in the world. However, not everyone likes their taste. I happen to like them as a change from highly-flavored liquids. ECOpure Rich is the tobacco flavored variety.

Hope this has been of some help. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any other questions.

I ill second both Totally Wicked and intellicig's Ecopure in the UK.

Both of these companies have bothered to have lab reports done on their liquids and published them for us all to see.

TW does unflavoured in their standard range, but will shortly be putting out a high nic UK produced unflavoured, which will be purely nicotine and PG. (PS Their standard unflavoured is also a PG based liquid)

Ecopure launched 'Krystal' a while ago, and that is their unflavoured liquid. This is a VG-based liquid.

intellicig also sell 'Ecomix' which is designed to dilute the Krystal to whatever strength you require and saves you bothering with mixing with PG, VG, alcohol and/or distiled water and so simplifies the process immensely, as you don't need to worry about getting your DIY mix to the correct thickness.

You will also need to think about what flavourings you want to add to your DIY mixes. I have been using Loranns, but I have recently tried some flavourart and can highly recommend them (although they are based in Italy and so it will take a short while for them to arrive).

All in all, pretty simple..... and DEFINITELY a money saver!

(PS If you need links r any of the above, let me know and I'll dig them out)

Thank you for all the information. I guess I will give it go and see how comfortable I am with liquid diy. I guess it is try and see just like with all things new. As I am happy with my nucig and the service from this company I will revisit them and ask something to be recommended.

I will share my experience with you all on this in a few days time.

Thanks again for all of those with the knowledge !
