Is my math correct?

[Mrs C]

Is my math correct? 1ltr = 1000ml
.5ml of 100mg would make 2000 10ml bottles at 5mg = 20k ml
20k ml at 6 ml per day /365 days= 9+ years worth? (not taking into account any loss of potency or spills)

That looks right to me. But don't forget to factor in friends, experiments...

 

[Mrs C]

I just might be able to find some room in my freezer for some potential civil disobedience at that rate

I stockpiled when I was vaping at 35 mg/ml. Now I vape at 10.5 mg/ml and dropping. I have lots for friends and family!

 

[supertrunker]

Nope. 100/.5 is not 2000.

friends and family....No matter what I buy I never seem to have too much

OP's math is correct, if a bit abbreviated. I always spell out unit conversions and follow the mass.

(1 L of 100 mg/ml base)*(1,000 ml/L)/(0.5 ml/dose) = 2,000 doses
(0.5 ml dose)*(100 mg/ml nicotine) = 50 mg nicotine/dose
(50 mg nic)/(10 ml/bottle) = 5 mg/ml nicotine

(2,000 doses)*(10 ml/dose) = 20,000 ml
(20,000 ml)/(6 ml/day) = 3,333 days
(3,333 days)/(365 days/year) = 9.13 years

Thanks Boletus That explains it much better than I did.

I shall be giving the antz a very ungrandmotherly hand gesture in the near future

I don't think I need complex calculations to predict how many fingers will be used in that gesture.

 

[Boletus]

Oh, I did forget to mention that this 9.13 years is the theoretical maximum. In reality, you will lose some, even if it is only the amount you rinse off your measuring gear. If you are like me, you should assume some of it will be wasted for some goofy reason or another, such as spills or horribly failed batches.

I've never thought of it in logical terms like this. But with what I have on hand, in the freezer and what I just ordered for My Freedom Smokes because it was $50 for 1000ml....................I think I might need to add an addendum to my will.
