The disposable syringes last a long time if you put some clear packaging tape over the numbers. On a different note, I've found my new favorite steeping technique to get juices ready in less than a day.

It's seasonal for me, and usually only used when I'm working. Once I get a bottle mixed up, usually 30ml, I shake the hell out of it then throw it in either my center console or glove box in the car. When I head out for lunch I shake it some more, repeat when I leave work, and carry the bottle in the house when I get home. Usually makes a 30ml bottle ready to vape when I sit down after work.

Really, the 1/2 and 1 ml syringes are all that I use anymore since I got my glass cylinders. Glass is much easier to rinse without any strong flavors being left behind in plastic.

Still looks like 5 drops in 5 ml will work fine for samples. Close enough to 3% which is what I use for these.

You can change drops per ml using this calculator if you desire to http://www.ecigvape.com/simple_calc.php

ETA- The person that originally stated 47 drops per ml was using a different dropper bottle so the drop sizes would be different creating a difference in drops per ml :)

Packing Tape.. I would have never thought of that..LOL.. We learn such the simplistic things from each other...:)

You could use clear nail polish too :facepalm:

I would not risk having any part of either in my juice, but that is just me.

You don't have to wrap the needle in tape, and you just don't get the body of they syringe in the liquid.

Flavor question, well...maybe I just answered my own question lol, thought the percentages were lower. TPA Double Chocolate at 7% and FA chocolate at 3% is probably too much in my juice.

I know that you don't wrap the needles, silly. Hopefully you do a thorough cleaning after each use and use PGA to sterilize once in awhile? That could easily get glue or polish remnants inside the plastic part to the syringe. I just don't do it but if it works for others...........
