Hi there !

Hi there guys !

So I come to you guys with a question, which I know you will be able to answer in second.
So I was a heavy smoker from the age for about 14 till about 30 when i switched to vaping. Now i have always vaped 18mg Vampire vape Heisenberg and recently i have started vaping ... to help with pain management and its working well, so i bought a bottle of the concentrate to add some flavor. All was fine with the world until this morning when i thought of adding a nic shot to it.

Now please correct me if im am wrong, but a nic shot basically a flavorless 18mg nicotine, pv/vg base. so i could just add my flavor to the nic shot without dilution right ? Or am i missing something ?

Welcome to ECF, ManicMoogle. I don't know how nicotine and whatever 'flavor' you have to add will get along together. Maybe try a small test, like 2 or 3 mgs., or whatever size your tank is. If you use or have more than one tank, I'd try it with the smallest one. Waste not, Want not..

Welcome and glad you joined.
Yep, you missing a ton of information. Might try reading the following in order to ask a question that makes more sense to us DIY folks:

Thank you bob, but the problem i am having is that i have always vaped 18mg premixed juices from Vampire Vape and the problem im having is there is no where that i have looked that tells me how to mix my own 18mg liquid short of buying straight pure nicotine myself. which to be honest at the moment is not possible.

And i really don't see why my question wouldn't make sense to you 'DYI folks' as you put it

All you need is nicotine base that is 18mg/ml or higher. You don’t want really pure nicotine anyway. That’s somewhere around 1000mg/ml and is hellishly dangerous. Like you-need-bunny-suit-and-respirator dangerous. The strongest I work with is 1/10th that strength. 100mg/ml. It’s much safer.

What strength on nic base CAN you get? If you mark your nation of origin we might be of help finding some.

Greetings and salutations!

If you dilute your 18mg flavorless, you'd end up with less than 18mg.

If you can get 20mg, or slightly higher, you'd be able to dilute and still reach your desired strength.

We're not allowed to discuss ... here, which is what I think you said, but if I were able to give my advice, I'd suggest keeping them separate, as with ..., the effects are best observed with maximum dosage in a short amount of time.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you have some vaping flavour concentrate and you're used to vaping 18 mg/ml. You're asking if you can use the concentrate to flavour an 18 mg/ml nic shot and vape that without diluting it further.

Answer: Maybe. The possible problem is the pg/vg mix of the nic shot. If it's the same as the juice, likely something in the vicinity of 80 vg / 20 pg, although it could be 50/50, then it should work fine. On the other hand, if the nic shot is straight PG or VG (because the makers are expecting you to add it to something containing a fair bit of the other one), then it won't wick properly.

Reminder please that flavoring and nic base can be discussed here but not the (OTHER STUFF) that the forum's censors dotted out.
