Not sure if im posting this right but anyways i have 1000ml's of 6mg nicotine in 100% vg base and a 4oz bottle of 36mg nic in vg base. the problem i have is after making a bottle of juice its not at my much loved 6 mg strength. how much of the 36mg would i need to mix with my 6mg nic to bring it up just enough so that after making a bottle of juice its closer to a 6mg strength? Im not to worried about it being exactly at 6mg as long as its close (+-2mg) thanks! Any info would be helpfull and im sure this is just basic math but lets just say school wasnt my finest hour

Huh? You have 6mg, and you want to mix 36mg to get closer to 6mg? Post your mixing ratios to help us help you.
Haha sorry i thought that might get confusing. What i mean is after adding flavoring and everything to a bottle of juice it dilutes my nicotine from a 6mg down to a strength that doesnt suit me. i wanted to make my 6mg vg base into say a 12 mg base so that after i mix my flavorings it dilutes it closer to a 6mg
Welcome to ECF trevorrtk74!
I'm not sure if any of the mixing calculators have input lines for more than one nic base, but maybe.
You have enough posts to ask in the DIY section though, and those folks know everything there is to know about mixing.
Best of luck to you.

Isnt it 5 posts To get out out of the new member forum? I didnt think i had 5 yet, if so thanks for letting me know
I think he's trying to go the other way with it Bunnykiller. How much 36 needs to be added to a big bottle of 6 to end up with 12 so that when mixed with flavorings it ends up back at 6. Pretty early in the morning for that sentence,
If my math is correct mixing a 1000ml bottle of 6mg with a 4 oz bottle of 36mg would leave you with 1118 ml of 10.9mg, assuming they're both full bottles to start.Thats exactly what i was going for philoshop but im only looking to mix about 100ml not the whole 1000ml bottle
You could use the trusty e-juice calculator

Ok, don't take my word for it, but just for fun;
(36 mg/ml + (6mg/ml * y )) / (y + 1) = 12 mg/ml
Where y is the number of unit measures of 6 mg/ml you need to add to 36 mg/ml to obtain a 12mg/ml mixture.
Expand and solve: y = 4. So for every 1 part of 36mg/ml, add 4 parts of 6mg/ml to make the solution 12mg/ml.
maths, my old enemy. It's been so long.
Seriously, check with someone else first.

Buy a reagent kit from a reputable lab. About 9 to 20 dollars usd.
How do you know the nic concentration on the 6mg/liter? Lowest concentrate at lab is 36mg/liter. So someone diluted it.
Since nic is the most expensive component in juice, don't trust secondary 'handlers'. Through the years I've tested juice, runs about 10% short. Good reason to mix your own.
I buy supplies at Wizard Labs..

10% difference? Is it important when you DIY? You mix to your taste, not to results of some possible test.
I have 1L 100 mg nicotine. Right now I dilute it to 8 mg and I like it. It is not important to me if strictly speaking it may be just 7.2 mg the important thing is that I like my strength.
One more thing: nicotine is the most expensive part of only unflavored juice, flavors are much more expensive than nicotine.
I would not use test kits when I buy nicotine from reputable supplyer. Why should I waste my time and money?
If you take 50ml of 6mg nic and mix it with 50ml of 36mg nic, you will have 100ml of 21mg nic mix. If you add 2.5 ml of 21mg nic to 7.5ml of flavoring/pg/vg, you will have a nic level of around 5.25mg when making a 10ml bottle of ejuice.
