If I had a brain I'd be dangerous!

Got some 10 ml bottles of ejuice and got one in 24 mg nic strength by mistake. This is NOT gonna work too well in my subox Mini. Might get nicotine poisoning.

Trying to figure out how to use this DIY ejuice calculator to dilute the nic level, and it's a given I will lose some flavor.

Maybe I should use my reading glasses next time, huh? These old eyes ain't what they used to be.

These bottles were on clearance, so I can't return it. They may take an exchange though since the bottle seal is unbroken.

Note to self: wear your dang reading glasses next time!

Well, at least it's only 10mL. No harm in a little experimenting. Dump it into an empty 30mL bottle, then use it to put in an equal measure of VG. That'll get you down to 12mg strength. If that's still too potent for you, then top off the 30-bottle with more VG. Either way, warm and shake it, then give it a try. You might find you can get along just fine with less flavor. If so, you're a winner! Stretching your bottles with VG can be a good way to stretch your vape budget. If not, it can't be worse than being nic-sick.

The VG that's available at CVS or Walgreens may or may not be USP certified, but I'll check the labels anyways. There is a Whole Foods and GNC across the street from me, so I'll check those out too.

Yes, the prices of juices are a concern to both me and my wife, so I'm always looking for a good, but safe, bargain wherever and whenever possible. Adding more VG sounds like a good way to stretch things out. Thank goodness I saved the 30 ml bottles. Stocking-up on some empties would be good as well.

Thanks!

Most people find even 6mg too much on a subtank. I personally vape zero nic on mine but everyone at work that has subtanks and VV/VW devices vapes at 3mg as their is like 5-10 times more vape than on say an EVOD so you're getting a lot more nic in a lot faster time....
I would like to try the 3 mg next, and use a 50/50 blend so I can still get the throat hit.
