I have been waiting 6 weeks now for an order from fasttech. So I went to my old standby Mt Baker in the States, because they fedex it within a few days, it was really good, but I went to check-out and they told me some of the items could not be shipped to my country. I'm mainly looking for satisfying liquid and ego aio coils. With fast shipping such as fedex. Well damn, hope you can help.

Oh bum, they used to. I looked at liquid barn, but am not sure how it works. Do i just need flavours and liquid plus nicotine. Or is it just flavours and nicotine. It says there is 48mg nicotine in 125ml bottle. How much would I use to get a 6mg ratio. Also if its easy that's all right but I don't want to mess around with anything dangerous. It'd be good to have the recipe, Unless here is someone in China with a good postage service, there must be somewhere, alas.

You could just buy unflavored 6mg basic nicotine eliquid and mix with their flavors
BASIC eLiquid™ ReFill (500ml)
But depending on how much flavor you use it will decrease the amount of nicotine. However, you only add 5-10% of flavor so it would be 5.2mg instead of 6mg if you add 10% flavor (i hope my maths is right lol).
Baked Cinnamon Roll eLiquid Extract

My friend imports at least a litre of 12mg basic nicotine eliquid every few months, he can't be bothered with nicotine concentrate. It still works out relatively cheap. You can always go the DIY with concentrated nicotine when and if you want to. There is a heap of info on ECF for that.

There are also a few NZ eliquid stores that will supply flavored nicotine eliquid but it is more expensive, however it only takes about 3 days shipping as well.

Hello. 48mg is not considered dangerous but using safety standard procedures should be a part of any DIY you do. Once you understand all that goes into it, it becomes fun to make your favorite flavors.

so to make a 30ml bottle using 10% flavoring(this amt can be changed for your preference)
you would need a 30ml bottle
3.75 ml of nic---assuming it is in pg
3ml of flavoring -and depending on how you like your pg/vg ie. used here is a 50/50 ratio
8.25ml of pg
15.00ml of vg
Most flavors are already mixed with pg as a carrier oil so it is counted on the pg side as is the nic.

Another way to think of it is if using a 50/50 pg/vg mix that half of the bottle is vg and the other half is pg. So if all the additives are in pg it becomes easy to figure out.

There are plenty of free calculators for your recipes to help you figure out how many mls go where. Just visit here and start a thread or ask in a thread you feel comfortable joining.

Wow that does sound a bit tricky, I already find vaping a bit fiddly. Anyway I decided to slow down and look at my order from fasttech thinking it must be close, somewhere, and ended up phoning Australia Post. And they said the order is awaiting pickup. So that's good because I only have enough liquid until tomorrow. They have somehow overlooked putting the card in the mailbox. So I guess there's still fasttech, but yeah, it can take 6 weeks. Thanks for all the info, in case I am desperate I might use he NZ one, but expensive as you say. Or perhaps i should look into the diy thing. Thank You for all your help, despite the fact that it makes me feel like the muddle headed wombat, and check back soon.

Yeah, vaping is a bit fiddly and messy. But considering the other option is just not feasible for me. I am glad your FT order is there waiting on you. Close call, umm.

If you do want to consider DIY just have a look at the link I posted earlier. You can find out info and get a clearer picture.

Its really not as bad as it looks.
