A few DIY questions.

[TheVap3Junkie]

I'm going to try some juice mixing and have a few questions. I ordered plain vg and ordered some pg @36mg. I like low nic levels so I figured for just starting out this was a cheap, safe, and easy way in. I like the thickness of the top vapor usa ejuices and it says they are 80vg/20pg so that should put me aroung 7mg of nic. I ordered loranns natural cherry and banana and they are vg based. The naturals aren't as concentrated so a lot of people recommend 15-20% flavoring. That sets me up for questions.

1-Is 80/20% vg/pg too thick? most of my favorite juices are high on vg.

2-Since the flavoring is vg based should I sub the amount of plain vg accordingly? ex- 2ml of flavor+8ml of vg= 10ml for total vg content in final product?

3- Is 15-20% of the lorann naturals and around 10% of the super strength a good place to start flavor wise?

Sorry if this was confusing...Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

What is your delivery system when vaping? Atomizer? tank? What voltage if using a VV device?
80/20 is perfect for most attys. I use 70/30 VG/PG on my polypropolyne carto tank.

Rebuilables mostly. Attys and recoiled vivi novas. Around 4volts with LR stuff. Like I said I'm pretty sure I vape 80-20 vg/pg now without a problem if the madvapes/topvapor usa description is correct on the site.

I vape 80% VG in my T2 clearos with no problems, so you should be golden!

If your delivery system works with the 80/20 VG/PG you are good to go. Just use an ejuice calculator to get all your numbers right. It might tell you to add some PG, though.

Thanks for the replies. Does anyone have some experience with these flavorings to know a good starting percentage?

Actually, it's the first I've heard of Lorann's VG based flavorings, but when I looked them up, the site said they were about half as strong as their other flavorings.

So, I'd try the Flavoring Guide's higher end of % as the start myself and then work up from there as needed.

Yea I noticed that too. Thanks for the reply.

I've used many of LorAnn's regular flavorings, and except for the watermelon didn't really care for them. I haven't tried the naturals though. I have found that What I have made with LorAnn's needed a longer steeping time than the other flavorings I've tried, so if you are not happy with the flavor right away let it steep for a week and try it again. Let us know how it turn out!

thanks for the replies everyone. I got my base liquids last night and should get my flavorings today so I should start mixing tonight. I will post and let everybody know how it turns out
