Are you done stocking up?

Do be careful with the 200mg. Check out some blogs or videos. A lot of people prepare nic base first as a separate step. I make mine at 10mg. Then use that base for the actual mixing rather than the high concentration nic.

I have some of the RTS extra strength strictly because it allows me to fit all my nic in the freezer door shelves of my kitchen frig. I transfered it to amber glass by pouring directly from one bottle to the other and didn't spill a drop. The amber glass bottle got the original RTS label then went into a zip lock bag, wrapped in thin bubble wrap, then into another zip lock bag ,alll taped down. What you would like to avoid is a broken bottle that results in a spill. Years from now, when it's time to open that bottle, all of it will be diluted immediately to 2.5 liters of 100mg.

Even as long as I have been making my own e-liquid I don't think I would be comfortable working with anything above 100mg but that is just me. Like @englishmick I also mix mine down. I take a bottle of 100mg out of the freezer, bring it to room temp and then cut it in half so most of the time I am working with 50mg. I always keep a 60ml bottle of several different strengths mixed up (12, 16, 18 and 24) for playing around with.

@DogDriver Please be very careful with that 200mg. You need to be in a well ventilated room and be close to a water source in case of a spill. The first time I transferred my 100mg to smaller bottles for freezing I had a fan behind me blowing toward my opened kitchen window. I don't know that something like that is necessary but it gave me peace of mind.

When I was planning on getting into making my own juice I set a $500 budget. These reg's changed that and I loaded up on nic. Still need to get flavors still and that $500 is long gone.

I started saving up after x-mas just to start stocking up on things I was already using....May came along and rules changed so I bought nic first, then the remaining $$ was divided on FF and such $500 spent and I'm good for 12+ yrs. Still would love to buy more, but I'm happy were I'm at.

I have a large tub in the attic full of mixing stuff I bought and never used. Funnels, measuring cups, goggles, all sorts. All I actually use now is a couple of measuring cylinders and lots of small syringes. Got stocked up on nic early. I had a tighter deadline than most people since I live in Indiana. Seems you can still order nic but nobody knows what's going to happen with that, or when.

I wish I could get nic for $40 a liter. It starts at $120 here and goes up from there. I have seen places that sell for $250 per liter.

Anyone here try going from 510 atties to tanks/clearos? I have had no luck. I have tried the Nauti mini and the Endura T22, and they just don't hit the spot. They feel harsh, without giving me that satisfying TH that the atties do. Plus I get headaches every time I draw on them. I think I almost poisoned myself the first time I tried the Nauti. I learned I needed to cut down my nic level (was trying 18mg). I did with the Endura (10mg) and still it's too much- now I have cut it to 6mg and still getting a bit of a headache. BTW, I had to block the air flow on the Endura to get a tight draw. I was surprised I had to resort to that since everywhere I read pointed out the draw was tight. It was too airy for me.

I feel your pain! I recently switched from 510 LR atties over to rebuildables after many years. I had tried some RDAs when they first came out, and didn't like them. What works for me so far are Kayfun Mini V3 for tanks and Derringer clones for dripping. I vape from 1.2 - 1.5 ohms, single coil, MTL tight draw, 18-24 mg. Hope this helps you out!

Edited to add: I switch out the drip tip on the Derringer for a longer one. I don't like the short wide bore one it comes with, it's too airy! It takes a standard size drip tip.

Same here, I have two Dragons already, plus other Provaris, and it is hard to just walk away.

I got one. That makes four, which really isn't too bad in the scheme of things!

Flavors are so inexpensive individually, that people tend to forget that cumulatively, they can amount to quite a bit.

I have never totally thrown a flavor out - yes I have found flavors that as the main ingredient were not that good, but they were still usable as accent flavors... I am big on not wasting anything that I spent good money on...

Safety with any nicotine is always a good thing...

I have 1 Dragon so it made it a little easier to walk away. Had it been the Gold for $29 however, I would have just had to tell my other hand to stop hitting me while I was typing my info out.

It's the purple one with a silver satin contrast. I just love that color LOL. So one radius will be stash and one I will use. I think I have way more Provari's than I need now LOL! Have not caught up to WillyZ yet tho LOL

Ya know, I think you are right, however the two I have get along quite well together, I don't think one or two more would be a problem.
