Also since they are worn the size will be off a little. How do you compensate for that? Also wheres the best place to order and what material...

    Measuring Cylinder Source

    Just thought I'd share a good find. I got a 5mL and 10mL graduated glass measuring cylinder and a glass stirrer from this company on eBay. Really inexpensive, and they have larger sizes too. (I find working with cylinders even more useful to me than pipette and syringe measuring to some...

    Hi all. I have been reading a lot about DIY for the past 5 weeks. I ordered the makings "PG / VG, 100mg nic-vg, a hand full of flavors and blunt needle syringes with little lines. I wanted to make a 30ml of strawberry Lime Peach for my first attempt. I found a recipe on a site and I decided...

    Need Help Measuring Coil Temperature

    I've tried a needle probe, a bead probe and an IR thermometer. They all register far below known temperature. Has anyone successfully measured a coil's temperature? How did you do it?

    Syringes or a scale?

    my syringes went to crap about 3 months after I bought them. The labels mushed out. The suction even went bad. Maybe I bought bad syringes. Maybe you could refer me to good branding syringes or I could consider buying a scale. A cheap accurate scale from amazon ?

    This recipe calls for..

    When using the ejuicemeup calc, I notice it calls for 0.875ml on one ingredient and 18.75ml for another, and 0.55ml lastly. Question is, would you just keep it simple and round up? 1.388ml to 1.4ml. Or error on the side of caution and round 0.55ml down to 0.5ml? Want to know if everyone follows...

    If a recipe calls for..

    Quick question everyone, If a recipe calls for 0.66ml of a flavoring, should I round to 0.7ml so its easier to measure with my syringe. Just want to make sure I have my measurements correct. Mine as well ask while were here, if the recipe calls for lets say 0.73ml you just measure to 0.7ml...

    DIY Volt/Amp meter

    There are many examples of inline volt meters here but I wanted a unit which also displays amps so I can see how much strain I'm putting on my battery without having to use Ohm's Law calculator every time. There are lots of combined volt/amp meters available but they all need an external power...

    Syringe/pipette 'holster'

    Ok, so I was organizing my diy area this morning and had a lightbulb moment. It happens occasionally. I think it's a pretty cool idea, YMMV of course. The trick for me is conveying the idea without a photo since my camera isn't working at present..my dog ate (well, chewed) my battery and I...

    Is nicotine measured per ml or per bottle?

    Just learning, I just got a 30 ml. bottle of unflavored VG, 26mg nicotine, does that mean there is 26 mg of nicotine per milliliter or is it 26 mg. for the entire bottle???:confused: I'd like to make 15 ml. of 7mg nicotine. I have VG mixing liquid and 26mg VG from Liquidxpress and some flavoring

    Converting to E Cigs with regards to Nicotine content.

    I thought i would post this in this section as it is more pertinant to newbies. When we convert to ecigs, we always try to work out how many cartridges we should use, how much the equate to in normal cigs and what level of nicotine cartdriges to go for. Let me put my reasoning after my...

    Drops per Cigarette

    I posted this as a reply to a question in the 'How many E-Cigs do you own' thread, but as the question of how many drops are equal to a regular cigarette seems to come up a lot I thought I would put it here for those that find it useful. The reply is aimed at someone smoking 6mg juice, but all...

    How many drops in a ml? Does size matter?!

    Hello all, three weeks in but still just a beginner and far from an expert so thought I'd start my first-ever thread here in the 'innocents quarter'. :D Having seen various quotes on various threads as to how many drops constitute a millilitre, 20, 30 etc I've got to ask what seems an obvious...

    how many drops in a ml? calculating daily nicotine

    I so far have not been keeping track of my nicotine intake, and I want to start. If I knew how many drops are in a ml I could tell how much nicotine im using. From the other posts Ive read, the rated nicotine level on the label is per ML. So a 36mg Fierce coffee from puresmoker would supply...

    Measuring recipes

    I'm now mixing Bickford's and Cook's extracts, Glycerin, and e-Juice. Was wondering how some of you measure the small amounts to make recipes to fill Sweet Breath bottles. So far, I''ve been just counting drops and using a pipette. It would be great to find a tiny measuring cup for...
