Sorry to hear about all the trouble. What version of openoffice are you running, is it the latest version? (some how you know I was gonna ask)
have not seen that error before Let me know.
Dan
I'm new here and needed some answers about the nicotine levels. I was thinking on how to save money and make my nicotine juice last longer. I was thinking if I bought a large bottle of the e-juice that has 60mg of nicotine content in it, that I could dilute it, meaning cut it to the desired mg levels I would like to let's say 11mg. That would give me 6 times the amount to last longer. If this can be done, would I be diluted it with the PG/VG and or water and if show how would I go about it? I was thinking I could do this in combination of adding additional flavors, water and PG or VG ?????

Simple, plug 60 into the calculator section 1 first cell.
Plug 11 into the calculator section 1 second cell (target).
Plug 10 into the calculator section 1 third cell (amount to make).
Ignore water and VG for now, and put 10 in the flavor cell section 1 sixth cell.
Based on those numbers you would add (from section 2):
1.83ml of 60mg unflavored nic juice
7.17ml of PG
1ml of flavoring
This would give you 10ml of 11mg nic juice with 10% flavoring.
This help?

For some reason, when I put in that I want 10% vg, it won't calculate it. I dont know why, but I'm making 5ml batch and have no idea what 10% vg would be. I'm using PG nic and have plain pg and vg for filler.
Put 1% in the water field, and it will. On the PG side if you add VG you must add water. And if you want to add water you must add VG, the two fields are tied together. If you do not want to add water then put 1% in the water field and just add the water total to the VG total.
Hope this helps!
Dan
I apologize if this was covered before, but I looked and couldn't find anything.
I have 50mg nicotine in VG. I have a 24mg flavored juice (90pg/10vg). I want to raise the 24mg flavored juice to 36mg. When I attempt to do this in the calculator I get a negative number in the VG with No Nic. There is also no place to put the second nicotine juice strength. I have base VG nic and target VG nic, but no mixing VG nic.
This would be especially useful if my favorite juice is only available in the 6mg or 12mg and I want to kick it up to 24mg or 36mg using my 50mg VG Nic.
So, is there a way to do this using your calculator? Which by the way, I absolutely love! It works great for all the other stuff I want to play with. I just haven't found how to do the above.

Using section 5 in version 11 of the utility will give you the necessary breakdown in volumes needed to achieve your desired end result.
The only thing you'll need to play with will be the "flavor" loss.

Ah...ok. Thank you. I saw that but I was confused by the nicotine levels being expressed in percentages rather than mg/ml. I am very new at this though, so it may just be my noobishness that led to the confusion.
Which leads to the question....how do I arrive at these numbers? Or are these percentages the same as the mg/ml number of each nicotine solution?
Thanks Dan, I sent you a PM with some other problems I'm having. Thank you for your help
Yep good old algerbra, I would make Mrs Strunk proud (HS Math teacher)
Dan
Smokum is correct, just use section 5, Enter target ml to make and target mg/ml to make. (Yes I used % which is actually incorrect, but I did the same thing in section 1)
I will fix it in the next version.Then enter the first mg/ml number, and the second mg/ml number.
For a target of 10ml at 36mg using 50mg and 24mg it would be 4.62ml of 50mg and 5.38ml of 24mg.

Your PM has been answered, send me your email address, and you can be my MAC test subject

Great! Thank you very much for all your help and hard work in putting together that calculator!

I am also a Mac person and I had posted my issues with the calculator in another forum earlier tonight. So maybe it is mac related? I would be happy to mac test for you. I love the calculator and would really love the ability to save my own recipes, which seems to not work right on the mac. I could find no way to pm you. My email is vip@(my username).com
i am havign a little trouble with the calculator, i entered all my info, i am cutting 48mg nic down to 12mg, with PG base, and with 30% VG, but when i punch in the 30% VG it doesnt let me know how much VG to add. the place where it should tell me stays at 0. am i doing something wrong? or is this a problem for anyone else?
**edited**
i rad threw a few pages and found my answer, that i had to add 1 water for the VG section to work. great tool you made here, it has really helped me a whole lot

Hey dan, first off, thanks for a great tool. Comes in very handy.
But,
I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this problem. I'm using Windows 7 and since I don't have Excel, I'm using OpenOffice. When I click to add recipe, this is what I get:
Also, in the flavor list, it shows a TPA white chocolate, but it does not appear as a choice on calculator. When I've tried to add flavors to this list (unprotect sheet first), they don't show up in drop down list either. Any ideas?
When openoffice first starts up it asks if I want to enable macros or not. I click to enable. Don't know what else to try. I've tried opening the calculator, and saving in .ods format and reopening, with no change.
Is it just not fully functional using OpenOffice???
Thanks again, and looking forward to getting my bugs worked out.
Kyle
