If your new, and thinking about eventually mixing your own liquids (DIY)

[fjg123]

Then dont throw away your empty bottles! I made the mistake of doing that and had to buy a bunch of empty bottles, which was a waste of money. doesnt matter if their small, cuz then they make good travel containers, or test bottles for new flavors your making.

Just thought id share, if someone warned me i would have so many more containers laying around for use.

Very good point.

Glances at the bottles from various vendors beside himself that are holding his DIY mixes, yep very good point.

I don't DIY ....yet but I couldn't bring myself to throw away any of my bottles. I just rinse them out and keep 'em. I actually used one of them this am. Had 2-10ml bottles of the same juice in 2 different strengths. 16 and 24. One was to weak, one to strong. (Sounds kinda like a fairy tale) Had to have a larger bottle to mix them. It does pay to keep all of them.

I have never purchased empties. Just wash out the ones from vendors that were empty. I just keep recycling them until they can take no more!

Let's expand this a bit. Don't throw away anything related in any way to your PV. To include: bottles, caps, carto condoms, carto soft caps, old battery tubes, old cartomizers / atomizers. Much of this can be and is used for mods, carto fillers, carto tank fill plugs, carto tank tubes etc.

[TamiP]

Hey thanks. I want to make my own and even have a few supplies coming, but would not have thought about saving the bottles I have now. Great tip!

 

[KayVapes]

So, how do u pry the tip off the dropper bottles to refill them?

 

[TamiP]

I use a pliers, a needle nose would work great, but I can't find mine, so I just got a pair of regular pliers and it worked fine.

 

[denali_41]

They come off very easy with you finger and thumb and a small piece of paper towel for grip. Just wiggle it out.

Man I must be weak. I tried and couldn't get it off, that's when I got the pliers. Guess I better spend more time at the gym. LOL

 

[Dad2daBone]

Good tip I kept mine for a while then asked myself "why am I keeping these? I'm just gonna get more." Then shortly after throwing them away I developed an interest in DIY. Damn! Oh well should have figured. I keep all kinds of crap around sometimes for years. As soon as I end up throwing it out, I find a use for it shortly after...

Tami, try grabbing the tip (using a paper towel) between thumb & index finger and sort of "breaking" it off. You're not actually breaking it, but it'll pop off pretty easily that way, and they snap back on easily as well. Happy vaping!

I unscrew the cap, then put it over the dripper tip and push it sideways-it will pop that tip right out of the bottle. And to put it back on I just screw the cap down tight and it locks it into place.

Don't throw anything away, even if you don't like it or don't use it. It can be used for swaps and the like. Just think GREEN! Really, everything is useful to someone! I guess there is the point of becoming a hoarder, but most everything you have can be swapped for something useful to you!

 

[mafig]

i hoarded all my e-cig accessories even the ones completely defunct or worn out..just to see what wastage after 1st year anniversary(6th May) of my vaping journey..after that will give them a decent buried..Amen

I can usually pull them off by hand with little difficulty
