Hey Crew,
I asked Don about this but maybe one of you really smart ones know the answer. I have a bunch of 24mg juice in 15 an 30ml bottles. Well 24mg is way to strong for me. I want to cut the nic levels down to at least 18mg or lower. Is there a formula for adding Zero nic to a certain volume of juice to drop the nic level.

I was thinking of slowly ordering some 10ml bottles of 0 nic to cut the nic levels down and can't remember my formulas from school. Not that I remember much from school anyway.

anywho, any help would be appreciated. And you would have my Doctors thanks too.

Thanks All
Kevin.

Dunno,0nic juice will cut the flavor too.
I use same flavor,30ml each,lower nic.24mg+6mg=15mg

Evening all!

Got a couple quick questions:

1. How are BWB e-juices with LR attys? Are the flavors and TH more enhanced?
2. Am thinking of slowly dropping my nic level to 6mg {I'm vaping these way too much}. So gonna mix the 12mg that I have with 6mg that I will purchase in the future. With the drop of nic level, what would I expect? I suppose TH would be less, but will the flavors come out more?


Thanks

Edit: I know I just said a couple but one more question:

3. Most probably is me but I can't seem to get the taste of the Vanilla Bean. I probably have 10 flavors now but Vanilla Bean is the one that I can't seem to taste. Will letting it steep help?

I don't know what PV you are using but my sweet spot is 2.0 ohm @ 3.7 volt on most of Dons juices. Some I go back to 2.2-2.5 regular atties. Vanilla bean is great at 2.0 with a 3.7 volt mod. On my Inferno I have to use 1.5 ohm due to the lower voltage. For me 1.5 ohm on 3.7 volt I loose much of the flavor.

Hope that helps
Kevin.

Been busy, with Japan and all ... not making life easier. CVN Ron Reagan jetted out of SD harbor Saturday stat and made it to the shores of Japan (some 4k miles) in under 2 days ... impressive! There are over 450,000 homeless now, and 2 of 3 nuclear reactors still giving hisses and fits. To top it off, it's been snowing and sleeting there the last 2-3 days... the magnitude of this disaster is at least 4 times Katrina ... if any one needed prayers and assistance now - please keep Japan in mind.

Im gonna ask this one more time also as im getting some not so nice emails from people that they havent been able to get things when I list them cause it sells out so fast. Please respect others so they can have a chance to get things as well. Im seeing alot of people going in and ordering everytime I list things and it is not fair. I dont want to have to cancel orders cause people are greedy but it is starting to come to it. Those doing it know who they are and I can cut you off very easily the way you are doing it to others. Show a little cooth and allow others a chance.

Don,

I know you are doing the best you can given the situation with your ingredients. I have put auto-notify on a couple of your hard to get juices (ejoker and RY4) and it's been about 6 six weeks since the last time they were offered. Up until now I have not gotten any notifications that they are back in stock - I check your site daily. I'm not trying to hoard them when they come in but I'm usually running out about the time you get them in since my wife and I both vape. I also buy the waffle, vanilla bean, honey flue and honey flue nut regularly too ... those seem to be my 6 favorites even though I have bought many other flavors from you too. The ejoker and RY4 are like my all day vape. I am not trying to get petty but would like some clarification on your last post because I would still like to buy one each (as your first post requested) as they become available, especially the ejoker and RY4, but I don't want to cause any problems that would make you stop my orders. Can you please explain if you are asking people to still buy only one or are you asking people who bought last time not to buy this next time? Thanks - Roy

1/2 (24mg) + 1/2 (0mg) = 12 mg
3/4 (24mg) + 1/4 (0 mg) = 18 mg

I should have been more specific lol I mean 0 nic of the same flavor. IE adding 10ml of 0 nic 555 to 30ml of 24mg 555.

Edit
I should also mention that I am having to go to 50/50 regular/decafe coffee too.

Thanks Kevin.

Right now, I use the Joye 510 with the stock attys but am waiting on a Joye EGO with 2.0hm Boge cartos and 1.5ohm (or maybe 1.7ohm) LR atty. Along with the Ego-T atty to sample. These I will have come Monday.

What I'm noticing is that the non-tobacco ones, i.e. Blueberry, Peach, Waffle, Malty Toffee, Cappuccino tastes really good with the stock atty. While the tobacco ones I have, Maple, Applewood, Casablanca, and Cherry tastes good as they are, I'm thinking the lower resistance attys or cartos would bring out the flavors more {which I think you confirmed}.

Gonna have to try the Vanilla Bean on the LR as I'm bummed not being able to taste it among all the flavors that I have.

Did not get in on the RY4, Ejoker and HFN this time around. Got enough to keep me going for a couple of weeks but for certain, I will have to get those as well along with Espresso, Dulce and Coffee Mocha.

Hey francis - I don't use LR atty's so, I can't help you out with that one... BUT, I too am looking to lower nic soon - after my next order. Let me know how that goes for you?

Ya will let you know PapaBloog. My next order of the ones I have now will be 6mg. I may go with 50/50 first to drop to 9mg and when all my 12mg are depleted, I'll bet left with the 6mg ones.

I concur. Tobaccos and coffees taste better at slightly higher wattages, while the more delicate flavors, like fruit, do better at lower temps, IMO.

I use Boge 2.0Ω cartos also, and tank atties, both regular and LR (1.8Ω), on 3.2v (my eGos) and on 3.7v. They all work great. Malty and Malty Toffee are fabulous in the tank, BTW. I think the tankomizers bring out all kinds of subtle undertones of Don's eliquids in a way no other PV does. Let us know what you think.

That IS impressive! I've made that trip (well to the PI anyway with a stop in Hawaii) on the Kitty Hawk and no way that old girl could make the trip in 2 days! Don't remember her going beyond 32 knots. They must have run her wide open the whole way. I had heard the nuke carriers were fast but that's really moving!

I drip using an eGo with a LR atty and a GLV 5v with a regular atty. I find that my all day vapes (Malty Toffee, Casa, Vanilla Bean, Espresso) are all good at the higher voltage although with the MT I have to really keep the atty wet or the flavor starts to get burnt tasting. The Casa, VB and Espresso are not as unforgiving.

I find other flavors like Watermelon, Blueberry are better with the 3.7v eGo using a regular atty.

I can't taste the Vanilla Bean on my eGo for some reason, but when I put in in my eGo tank, I can. Not sure why.
