Help with diluting nicotine strength

[Malarkey]

I just got an order in from HHV and the two 15ml bottles I ordered at 24mg strength. Recently I haven't been putting nic on my liquids since I am messing around with new mixes and don't want to waste. I normally vaped 24mg but now it seems too strong. I have both pg and vg, can I simply add a bit of either one to dilute the strength? If so if anyone can help me determine the amount I would be ever so grateful. I would like to get it around 16-18mg total.

I use Do It Yourself E-Liquid (E-Juice) Recipe Mixing Station! for my liquid calculations. Just load up your numbers and you're good to go.

The only way I can see to do that would be to assume the overall nicotine strength they used to make the liquid in the first place. If I put that it is 100mg diluted to 24mg strength for the 15ml and then do it at 18mg I can take the difference which would be to add either 1ml of pg or vg to the bottle and it will bring the total close to 18. Does that sound right? If so I can just add the extra, put it on a glass bottle and run it through a UC cycle and be good to go.

If you have 15ml of 24mg juice, then add 2.5 ml of PG and 2.5 ml of VG and you will end up with 20ml of 18mg juice.

Keep in mind this will also dilute the flavoring.

To figure it out use the e-liquid combining calculator down the left side of the page that KnurledNut referenced.

The eJuice Me Up calculator has a combine calculator that can be used to calculate what you want. Just put 0 mg in the juice you're combining.

Yeah that's the calculator I use, didn't know it had that feature. I'm happy that I can bring down the nicotine level but not looking forward to diminishing the flavor. It's my fault, should have ordered a lower nic.
