Hi

[Okierider]

Hello all,
I have been vaping for nearly 3 yrs. I started out with the analog look alikes (ec)? Then moved to the little $20 vape stick and have finally progressed to a sub tank. I currently have a Hurakles tank and an iStick 50W. Now that I have a better stick, I am vaping a lot of liquid and can't afford to buy it from the local or even online stores.
I have some questions about liquid and flavorings but will look in the forums for answers before I ask them. I found this forum by researching VG,PG, and flavoring purchasing options. FYI I found PG at the Costco Pharmacy for $11 for a 16 ounce bottle.

Thanks for listening.

Hello & welcome Okierider

Please don't hesitate asking any questions. The lovely members here don't mind if the question has been asked before

Welcome, Sir!!!

 

[Okierider]

Thanks.
Will do. I just ordered some PG and will be going to Wall Mart to buy VG after work today and see if they have any flavorings as well. Do I need some kind of scale or measuring device? I have plenty of saved bottles to mix in so I should be good there? Are there any other tips or things I need to know before I jump in head first?

Also, I didn't find the signature button anywhere.

I have only been vaping a few months but I did splurge on lots of flavours and DIY is by far much cheaper. I did buy some food flavorings by LorAnn oils ( there is a list here somewhere telling you which Lorann products are good for vaping and which are not) I found the apple to be a nice vape at about 15 % Best Lorann Oils Vaping Spreadsheet – 2014 DIY Ejuice Concentrate: FastTech Forums

and there are online ejuice calculators which I have found to be helpful one of the simpler ones is DIY e-juice | Steam Engine | free vaping calculators and there is another popular one called I believe eJuice Me Up - Best eJuice Calculator

I confess I have not made a juice as nice as my store bought one BUT I have made a couple that were pleasant and this has stretched the store bought one quite a bit. have fun

oh perhaps I should ad LorAnns was found in the cake decorating area of bulk barn but I live in Canada so I am not sure where you might get it perhaps in the baking supplies section of Walmart just be sure to read the ingredients and get water soluble

Thanks for the input Carol.

Or you can just mix your PG and VG and Nic all up and just squirt a little flavoring in when transferring to smaller bottles.

Some people on budgets or preference enjoy no flavoring at all.

I have been seriously thinking of this as a daily vape and only use flavorings as a special occasion. I'll see how it goes.
I smoked for roughly 32 years and I mostly miss filling my lungs so, I mainly vape for pleasure and the habit of it instead of the addiction. Just the act of inhaling has the calming effect I missed so much when I had tried to quit before without vaping. Maybe that makes sense to someone. Anyway, I don't think I will be using nicotine at all but again, I'll see how that goes.
