    Hey guys I guess my brains stuck from a nic over dose because I'm stuck.
    I looked up and used (kinda) several DIY calculators and thought I had my measurements close but all 3 of the 30 ML bottles of juice I made give me a MAJOR nic rush after 3 or 4 hits. Yes of course I had to try all three :(


    I vape at 12 nic (6 nic for chain vaping) and 50/50 pg/vg.
    I measured my (multi vendor) flavors in a 1 ML pipelet and used a 10ML marked syringe for my pg/vg liquid.

    I've got 48% nic mixed in 50/50 pg/vg.

    30 ML bottles mixed:
    -----------------------
    10 ml pg
    10 ml vg
    7.5 ml (48 nic) pg/vg
    5 ml flavoring (2 ml Dbl Choc., 2 ml Carmel, 1 ml Choc. Carmel Nut is one recipe)

    Taste is Awesome but I've got to have my nic wrong!

    Hit it 3 or 4 times (real good) from a Lemo and WOW! I still haven't recovered.
    Do I have my nic 4 X too strong?
    Help appreciated!
    Thanks

    Willy thanks for the reply!

    I just checked and didn't think about the flavors actually being PG! Yes the Capella is PG, the MFS flavor dosent say? I didn't consider that as PG in measuring, so my PG is way over but is my nic really right?

    My Nic is a big pre mixed bottle of 50/50 @ 48 nic


    Edit:

    Wait your numbers would be shy on PG vs VG because the nic is 50/50.

    30ml @12mg 50/50 PG/VG

    7.5ml of 48mg nic
    2.5ml of PG
    15ml of VG
    5ml of PG based flavour

    Willy wouldn't this be,
    11.25 PG
    &
    18.75 VG

    Not that I'd mind higher VG... Really just tring to figure out the amount of nic I should use and now how to fix this 90 MLS of juice I made!
    Help anybody?

    This is my Fav calculator Check out the other links on the page for mixing. I avoid drops and use %
    According to this your at 11mg about 60/40 .............PG on the higher side.

    Thanks I'll check it out!

    Anyone got an idea on how to correct this 90 MLS? I'm sure it's got to much nic!

    7.5*48=360mg, 360/32.5ml=11mg/ml
    Did you shake/mix the nic base? The vg, pg & nic can separate over time.

    As per calculator your mixing came up to your preferences 11MG
    Your original post adds up to 32.5ml........... Thats the way I punched it in the calculator.

    If your sure you have to much nic. You botched the mixing process somewhere or your Nic is marked wrong.
    Its not likely it is but it has happened in the past.

    Since your mixing adds up to be an 11MG . Theres no way to fix the nic you have without totally guessing.
    You really dont want to do that.

    Ha, this is actually the calculator I used!

    I might not have shaken the bottle well or messed it up? I cut it and it's much better, really it's great!

    Thanks for all the advise and reassurance, I learned a lot form y'all!.
