    In bliss with my perfect DIY vape

    Out of the dozen or so brews I made at the weekend. I have the perfect vape. Blueberry, with a touch of raspberry and the tiniest drop of Menthol, combined with a homemade cotton and kanthal coil which is giving the silkiest vape from my PT2 and MVP2 cranked right up. I am now dreading the coil...

    What should good nicotine base look/smell like?

    The 72mg/ml in VG I bought is quite pink in colour, and smells kinda like the inside of my gym bag. Is this right?

    Am I unique in that when I see screws on something new I rack my brains wondering if I have a bit in my toolbox to fit them?

    I've only had my MVP2 4 days and already thinking about stripping it down to see what I can do with it. I'm a radio amateur so I guess it comes with the territory :-/

    Can I assume the amount of nicotine and actual flavour extract is negligable in my PG/VG calculations?

    For example, My nic comes at 72mg/ml in vg, so if I am looking for 50% vg, add 10% nic in vg, then 40% pure VG. My flavours come in PG, so add 10% flavour and 40% PG. Is the small amount of nic and flavour gonna make any difference?

    Results of my first bash at DIY

    So Sat morning my vape mail arrived. 72mg nic in VG and some PG and VG, as well as 10ml each of Capella blueberry and raspberry. Made my own menthol flavouring by dissolving a scant teaspoon of menthol xtals in 10ml of PG. Three days of steeping later time to try flavours. All 12mg/ml nic and...

    Do not do what I did with Menthol

    Very new to DIY liquid here. Wanted to add a bit of menthol (Not full on, just an icy kick) to a raspberry/blueberry mix I put together, and isn't at all bad for a first attempt. Made a flavouring by dissolving a scant tsp in 5ml of PG. And added a few drops to my juice, followed by a few more...

    Early morning get me going....

    Is 2 cups of stupidly strong coffee. My Victory Vision goes on my Batt (Seems to take a the full power better than a PT 2, don't know why, it's the same coil!) stuffed full of 24mg berry liquid. Chain vaped for a good 20 mins/half hour.

    Young wee lassie vaping on bus this morning

    This was a busy rush hour bus. She was being quite discreet, just a wee ego type thing, and a non offensive vape (I was sitting right behind her and couldn't smell a thing) Nobody was complaining. Just saying, never seen anyone vaping on public transport. Wondering if this is a carte blanche...

    3 and a bit weeks since my last .... How it's going.

    Well bought my first proper eCig 5 weeks ago. Did try vaping back in 2010 with a cig-a-like thing bought from Amazon for about 20 quid. I was completely underwhelmed by it, and gave up about 15 mins later. SO 5 weeks ago I went into a B&M shop and asked about starter kits. They had one...

    5 weeks in and thinking of going DIY

    Well this vaping malarky is costing way more than I thought. Having spent over £100 on hardware, eLiquid in the uk is expensive. I usually buy from my local vape shop, and 10ml of decent liquid is £5 ($7-8), and I get through 3-4 a week!. Now the only uk vendor I can find selling DIY stuff is...

    Is nicotine the most addictive drug?

    I think so, (I'm not joking btw) I have been addicted to, and successfully quit and stayed clean of for years, ......, [moderated], alcohol, but up until now, after trying and trying have never been able to quit the fags. But thanks to eCigs, now 12 days off the fags and not missing them at all...
