Many are--and if they do, they are not ready to DIY, IMO. I would like to get a confirmation from the OP wrt the strength of her nic.
Here's another example:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ask-veterans/419214-question-about-making-e-juice.html
Possibly Mods should be automatically moving these threads to the DIY Forum IMHO. There's just too much to learn and be aware of when DIY'ing juice. I've read a few posts here and it really is quite scary.
Just does not seem possible for someone with NO knowledge of Nicotine Hazards to get a hold of Full strength(99.9%) Nicotine. It takes a ton of paperwork just to sell/transport/purchase in that concentration.
More likely we have a rather non-concerned noob - very little attention to own Thread.............or............
There is a spoof working on another article on the Dangers of Vaping.
Best not to give more advice - beyond WARNING without better OP participation.

Just in the interest of safety, even 100mg nicotine base commands respect and should be handled with appropriate equipment and technique. There is a DIY forum here at ECF that can help, not the New Member Forum.
but with 3 posts the op would not be able to reply to his/her own thread if it is moved out of this forum ...........
At least there would be feedback and just maybe OP might read some of the stickies. Or maybe OP could say Hello to a couple of members?
agreed on all points
still, things have changed drastically since the ecf guidelines were developed. were most new members joined before they bought in the early days, now we find them with vv mods and, let's hope, 100mg/ml nicotine base ........
It varies per the user. It's sold in mg per ml (mg/ml). There's 1000 ml in a liter (a volume measurement). And 1000 mg per gram (a weight measurement). So 100 mg/ml juice is 10% nic (because 100 is 10% of 1,000 and their relative mass is close enough). *
Normally you see ranges from 0 to even as high as 36 mg/ml. Although the majority are 24mg/ml or lower.
As has been pointed out by wiser folk, leaving off the ml part is confusing to some, since they often confuse the mg and take it as a percentage (as if 100mg was 100% and it's not...it's 10%...see above.) Using 100mg/ml would be more descriptive. I'm going to try to do that from now on.
Also, don't forget OP.....when you cut it down MIX WELL. If you have access to a lab...use the stirring thing.
* = I'm not a chemist so grain of salt and do your own research.

Agree also. Have never seen so many new vapers pick the Vamo as their first PV and the large collection of vape gear some amass so quickly. But it's all good IMO.
but how prudent is it to keep them out of certain forums till they have the post count?
Problem is vapers nowadays move forward at breakneck speed and part of that "frenzy" is brought on by the manufacturers. Sad to see people buying a juice delivery device for $26.00 and a month+ later it's selling for less than $15.00. I'm sure when you began vaping life/ selection was so easy. In my day it was either a carto or carto+ tank. I know a vendor that just took delivery of 1000 Vivi Novas cuz they're so popular.
0-36 mg/ml. Many vendors don't even offer 36mg/ml because they consider it too high. 0-24mg/ml is the norm.
In the last 6 months many Vendors have stopped selling 10% Flavorless Nicotine. Even HealthCabin based in China sells a max of 4.8% now. Impossible to get 10% up here in CanKnuckleHeadLand. Wonder what Bob and Doug would have to say?
100% or 100mg,betting the latter,even without a calc you can figure out the percentages farly easy,just dilute with non nicotine liquide and flavor in percentages down to your target level,from 100 the math is simple
I never feel condescended to when I am asking for help in an area I know very little about. I am going my friends lab which has a cover box for noxious gasses. I will be suited up before cutting the nic level by half with PG . I am so grateful for all of the fair warnings. I am working verrry slowly with teensy amounts. Thank you all for such immediate responses. The forum saves lives!
I accidentally quit smoking 3 packs a day! My friend insisted I borrow his ego with a tank of 24mg @70/430. I threw out my left over smokes when I realized I hadnt had a cigarette for the entire day!
Been clean for 4 weeks and saving a ton of money!
"100% nicotine"
..."in an area I know very little about" ?
These posts give me great worry ...if this is a mistake and you meant 100mg/ml...even more so.
People should not attempt DIY until they are really familiar with what they have.
Closing this.
