Aloha

[EightBitLife]

Aloha. I live in Kauai and I am 36yr old and have been vaping for almost an year. Learned how to make my own coils and such so I am kind of self-reliant on that. I usually just browse forums and rarely participate but I recently been buying some ejuice from an online company and I think they are not adding the nic I requested.

So I bought from myfreedomsmokes
Nic Level 100mg
Size 250mil
PG/VG Mix 25% PG / 75% VG

I know its a lot I wasn't thinking when I bought it.

I wanted to know since I am horrible at math (very Horrible) what ml would I need to take from my nic bottle to add to a 120ml ejuice thats 80/20 for 3 and 6 ml

Any help would be appreciated as I dont want to make my self sick or ruin my ejuice.

Also my hobbies are retro games and collection transformers and other neat stuff

I am not sure if I am doing it right but for 6ml nic added to 120ml 80/20 this is what I got
Ingredient ml
Nicotine 0.72
VG 95.42
PG 23.86
If you could double check it I would appreciate it.

6mg 7.2ml (120ml total volume)
3mg 3.6ml (120ml total volume)

100mg is 10% nicotine.

if you take it down to making 100ml at a time the math becomes simple

lets say 20ml pg 70ml vg and 10ml of your nic base(100)
will get you a 10nic liquid
or
25ml pg 70ml vg and 5ml of your nic base(100)
will get you a 5nic liquid

for starters i wouldn't focus on the pg/vg ratio to much, it dousn't have to be exacly 25/75 as your nic base. as long as it is roughly in that direction it should be ok

This is where ejuice me up (a good ejuice calculator) will help immensely.

off cource

i use it 2 btw

but it always helps if people can see/visualize/understand the general principles behind it.
i don't want to calculate how much vg i need to add when i'm adding 1.75% pg based flavour.
but working with 100nic base can be dangerous
ex: you are making 50ml .3nic liquid and ejuice me up tells you to add 15ml nic base.
do you do this cous the program is right or do you think where did i miss a decimal/comma (the program is right, but people make mistakes)

having a basic understanding would be the difference between 3nic and 30nic

remember whenever you think something is idiot proof, along comes a better idiot ;p

the ejuicemeup calculator is an exceptional tool - not a steep learning curve (fairly user friendly once you understand where to put the numbers in and get it set up)

to ufosnowkitty's point, for starters, working with a 100ml batch size does make the math much easier to approach

just keep in mind, if you are working with the 100mg nic base you got from MFS, you need to take some basic safety precautions - BEFORE the mixin part... gloves, good ventilation, long sleeves, safety glasses recommended for starters - if you get some on you, rinse it off immediately, it is skin absorptive, to an extent - not trying to scare you, but precautions are a good thing, that is CONCENTRATED... typically, when i get a bigger bottle of nic, i will break it down into 50ml, 100ml glass bottles (fill almost to top to minimize airspace), put em in ziploc bag and store in freezer (light, heat, oxygen are enemies of nic - will cause it to degrade over time)
