Hello ECF,

A year ago I began my vaping journey and reading ECF. Volumes of ECF info later I joined the forum. The info here is the best, thank you.

A few months ago I tried out the new CE2 clearomizers. With a little tweaking I was happy with them but, not the annoying needle refill hassles. A few weeks ago it hit me, super glue a blunt needle tip to the top of a squeeze bottle. So I cut the dropper tip off the snap on bottle cap and was left with a hole nearly the size of the needle tip. They fit together perfectly. With a little glue and a few minutes, I was squeezing juice into my clearomizer with no need for a needle. I've found that the High Caliber juice bottles withstand repeated compression better than the other bottles I had on hand.

From left to right-foreground:
The snap on dropper cap, the snap on cap with dropper stem removed, the blunt needle tip and the bottle top with the needle glued on. I used regular old super glue and a razor blade for a flush cut on the cap.


I'm also interested if anyone has noticed variations in nicotine content? I got some juice with 24mg or 2.4% and cut it 1/4 with a 50/50 pg/vg blend, so it would result in a 6mg content. I also have some 6mg-0.6% juice from a vendor. With the 6% vendor juice I feel less of the nicotine than from the 2.4% blended down. Just interested if this is in my head or if there are inconsistencies with juices and or vendors?

Thanks LJ

Very clever! For future reference luer top bottles are available out there. I bought a pack of 5, 4 oz ones from an online retailer drills pot.com. They are great for making 60 ml DIY juice for filling my tanks and also come in a few other sizes (and free shipping).

I don't really know about your other question. It could be differences in nicotine base, differences in flavor, or even a labeling mistake.
