If it's too much, your next order can have 12mg which can be mixed with your 36mg to make 24mg at 50/50 blend. If you mix that 12mg in again to that 24mg at 50/50 you'll have 18mg. It's good to have stuff at varying mgs and some straight VG which mutes flavor and TH if you get a batch that is particularly rough or nasty tasting. I switch up as needed- only now, the 24mg is my highest for those rough times.

well, well I was under the impression that if I used anything other than 0mg juice to dilute with that it'd be ADDING more nicotine to the mix. To do it your way, I'd have to have an equal ratio of juice at the two mg levels, right?

Half a bottle of 36mg plus half a bottle of 11mg = 23.5 mg nicotine strength. (36 + 11 = 47/2 = 23.5)

Welcome to the forum!

You can dilute the juice you have with distilled water or VG which is available in most pharmacies.
What a gr8 idea! Thank you so much for posting this. My analogs had been putting me in debt ( I'm on a fixed income), so I ordered the 36 mg to make sure strong enough so just in case I figured I'd maybe have to dilute it with another liquid like a cherry flavor. To dilute it to 24 do you know how I should buy the cherry strength? And how to mix them? Still, distilled water idea really would save $ & I never would have thought of it so thanks so much!

You will be diluting the flavor along with the nic using this method.

Most of the juices I buy come in 6mg increments.....0-6-12-18-24.....(for some reason most seem to skip the 30mg).....36. If it's not, I just round to the nearest 6ml increment to make it easy. But yeah....I was giving you the easy math version. If you only have 5mls of 12mg, measure out 2ml and pair it with 2ml of 36 and it's basically the mid point between the two...you'll have 4ml at 24mg. You can also make it very easy and dilute drop by drop until it's vapable and not worry about the numbers. :)

Thanks sailorman, I dont want to loose the flavor. I will just order same flavors at a lower nic and mix.
I just figured out if the cartomizer seems to be getting a little dry just pull the top off a bit and push back down (not too much though or youll flood her). You get that cracklin sound and a big puff of vaper, man it puts a smile on your face!

You might want to be careful about doing that. It works, but you risk suddenly drying out the filler and the last thing you want to do is risk burning the filler. Better to just drip a few more drops of juice in there.

TPA has VG 16 oz for 8.00. That would be .50 per oz. Bluemist 4.00 for 120ml (4oz) works out to 1.00 per oz.

OOoo..Thanks for that. I haven't been to TPA for many months, since I made a massive order of flavors. I don't/didn't even know they sold it and it never occurred to me to check them. Thanks!

When I first got into vaping I got 36mg liquid which I feel is a mistake (at least for me). The throat hit was WAY too harsh and made vaping unbearable. Also I don't really feel like pushing the nicotine levels that high is a real answer or method of satisfaction. I think the real answer is a much lower nicotine level with the other minor alkaloids found in WTA juice. I find myself chain vaping nicotine only juice until I start ODing on nicotine (muscle twitches, overstimulated, sick feeling etc). This is just my experience though.
