Hello All,
First off , this is really a terrific forum. So much information here for the new vaper
My story.. I started smoking around 30 years ago. I am a very heavy smoker . Or should I say I was a very heavy smoker ? I smoked between 2 and 3 packs a day. Around 10 years ago I was able to quit cold turkey. That lasted for around 2 years. I never thought I would go back to smoking but I screwed up and started up again. I tried to quit using the cold turkey method a few times afterward without success.
My next successful quit occurred a couple of years later when I found electronic cigarettes. they were still a very new product in the US. I purchased one from a shop in the mall and I was pretty impressed. I did some online searching and I found a forum dedicated to ecigs ( I believe it was ECF , but I am not sure ). At that time a lot of members were suggesting a device made by Joyetech . It was a 510 with a cartomizer and refillable cartridges . I ordered a couple with 2 bottles of liquid. That little thing was great and I quit again. I used it for 2 months or so. I didn't even go through all my liquid .
Anyway , that quit only lasted 6 months. So, I am trying again. I was gonna dust off my old Joyetechs , but something caught my eye at 7-11. It turned out to be an NJoy tank device. I bought one for $30 and a bottle of liquid. I was shocked that they sold liquid at 7-11. I loved that NJoy the second I tried it. I knew then that I would be able to quit again
I came back to these forums to get advice and I found out that world of vaping has totally changed. Its Crazy !! There are now vaping Stores !! Actual brick and mortar stores that sell this stuff. It came as a very welcome surprise. I have since updated my gear a little. I now have an I taste vv and MVP 20 watt. I have 2 mini Nautilus tanks to go with, and I am very happy. I have not had a cigarette since Feb 2 !
So now my question. I have been going through a ton of juice. I buy a lot of stuff that I wind up not liking , mostly because it is too sweet. So I was thinking about DIY. I watched some videos and it does not seem difficult but I am not sure if I really have the time to mess around with it. The conversion tables etc. So I was thinking about just buying unflavored juice at my nic level and then adding flavors to it. Can I do that ? I am thinking that I could just go to ecigexpress and buy a 120 ml bottle of 12mg strength and then pour it into 10 ml bottles and add some flavors. This way I don't have to worry about conversion charts , etc. Would that work ?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks for reading, this is truly a fantastic place for information
