    Cheapest satisfying pod system to use, refillable

    Thanks for all advice/recommendations. I tried one of the Justfog Minifits. I like it a lot, got a couple more. I read you can actually replace coils/wicks in this device. Might try it for fun, seems can buy wires/cotton very cheap. I've never done anything with building coils, replacing cotton...

    DIY liquid storage

    Just FYI, decided to check my liquids that were purchased in plastic bottles. 100ml of cinnamon flavored premixed ejuice, came from the company who sold it in #1 PET. Also 4oz TFA cinnamon flavor purchased from online vape shop, also in #1 PET (not purchased direct from TFA, guess the shop buys...

    DIY liquid storage

    Thanks for replies. I do use cinnamon as one of my flavors. Will have to look into those Boston rounds, been trying to find some glass that has opening I like. Most probably know this already but the "safe" plastics are supposed to be #2, #4 and #5. Many of the plastic DIY bottles I see are #4...

    DIY liquid storage

    Oh, are the caps polypropylene also, I don't think they are actually marked. In case I want to shake up the contents.

    DIY liquid storage

    Any problems storing "juice" or VG/PG or nic solution in prescription bottles? #5 Polypropylene. Since I use syringes mostly don't need flexible and I like the wide top, easy to fit syringe in and get all the way to the bottom to boot.

    E liquid storage.

    I've looked at some, may compare to what I am making myself. Doesn't hurt to try something a bit different ;)

    E liquid storage.

    That's what I meant, I just didn't word it the best. Trying premade/premixed/retail juices to try to find what you like could add up quick is what I was trying to say.

    E liquid storage.

    True enough on cost (and easier/accurate to measure). For me DIY only way to go, can be like 80-90% cheaper than buying premix from what I see. Also testing premixes to see what you like, at 5-10 times the cost of DIY could get a bit expensive ;)

    E liquid storage.

    I might try that, once I determine what nic I want to use, right now all is in the experimentation phase. Main goal is to cut back smoking. And obviously the less nic the better. Ideally for me some day would be to take NOTHING into my lungs except air :) I did try my menthol/cinnamon mix, it's...

    Holes in the syringes all seem to be the same size.

    E liquid storage.

    Actually my syringe order just arrived today. I got 1s, 3s, 5s and 10s. Various needle sizes. Even the 14ga seems a bit small for VG, it's pretty thick. Might try 12ga for that if they make 'em. Or maybe it is the hole in the syringes themselves, maybe a larger syringe would have a slightly...

    E liquid storage.

    Yeah, just hard to measure much less than .5ml accurately for the small test batch. If it is too strong flavor wise can dilute with more nic solution and VG :)

    E liquid storage.

    Thanks for all for the excellent advice, time to start experimenting. Maybe most already know this but in case someone doesn't I'll post it. The syringes, I hear the graduating marks can wear off. I read covering them with a piece of clear tape can prevent this. Or maybe some clear liquid...

    E liquid storage.

    What % flavor do you use? Probably depends on the flavor though. I'm thinking of testing a recipe, maybe 10ml to start. .5ml cinnamon (PG based), .5ml menthol (PG based), 1.5 ml 100 mg/ml nic PG based and 7.5 ml VG. So 10% flavor. And should be 15 mg/ml nic. Both flavors very strong, might have...

    E liquid storage.

    Well my first supplies order arrived, freebase nic, nic salt, some PG diluted flavors and some straight VG/PG. My questions are about storage. The freebase nic, you freeze it for storage correct? Does it actually freeze solid (I got the 100mg/ml PG base, a liter)? If so need to keep some out...

    Cheapest satisfying pod system to use, refillable

    Lot of good info, thanks. By "standard" batteries I meant standard as in vaping batteries like the 18650s I use in a mod. The one pod I found with a replaceable battery, looks like some proprietary type so would probably not be cheap. The replacement "pods", looks like $2 each seems to be a good...

    Cheapest satisfying pod system to use, refillable

    Looking to try a pod for on the road. Will be refilling so looking for a satisfying system that has the cheapest empty pod refills. Any recommendations? Trying to cut back on cigs, so something that will help with that. I bought some freebase nic and a small amount of nic salt to compare, also...

    DIY questions, multiple

    Thanks for all the advice, links, info. Placed an order for solutions, flavors and some glass bottles for now. Have a mod which I will probably use at home, still trying to figure out a good refillable pod system for the road. I did get a small bottle of salts to try, along with a larger amount...

    DIY questions, multiple

    Thanks for the further info (PG/VG/blunt needles etc). I may end up getting blunt needles/bottles from ebay, maybe even China based. Super cheap (like $4-5 for combinations), how badly can you screw stuff like that up? ;)

    Heartland, so far they seem the best "overall" for me, free shipping over $50, they have the flavors I want (most sites do not sell TFA Cinnamon spice which is one of my choices), the freebase nic is cheap and 3 choices. The salt is a bit more expensive than some but I'm probably going to try a...
