So I made the mistake of ordering several bottles of juice before I knew better.. I am using the Kanger mini subox and the first juice I bought was from vaperfi I got 3 bottles of 24mg nic. Wowser did this blow my head back the first time I tried to use it. I since then started reading that in a subox or box mod you should only use 6mg or lower nic. I placed an order for more juice from another company and screwed up and got 12mg nic instead of six (see my issue lol). well anyway now I have 9 bottles of juice I am unable to vape because it is to strong for me. How can I cut the nic down without it costing me an arm and a leg? I don't even mind if the flavor drops a bit as I have been reading that softer or no flavor juice is actually good.. Any helpful suggestions?

I'd say buy the constituents to create a 0 nicotine unflavored base in your ratio (Wizard Labs is popular for ordering PG and VG online).

Then I'd start by mixing equal amounts of your 24mg and 12mg liquids to create a 18mg full-flavored liquid, and proceed to further cut that mixture with an equal amount of your 0 nic base. Warm and shake well, then try out your 9mg concoction at half-strength flavor. It'll probably be fine....

Reading more closely, and assuming you have all 30mL bottles (3 @ 24mg + 6 @ 12mg) in 50/50 ratio, here's what I think I'd do (to preserve more flavor):

Buy 250mL each of PG and VG from Wizard Labs (about $16 shipped)
Small text mix: 1 part 24mg original + 2 parts 12mg original + 3 parts 0mg 50/50 unflavored = Half-flavor mixture @ 7.5mg nicotine.

If that works for you, I'd do the whole batch. You'll have leftover 0mg unflavored base on hand, which you could use--if you want--to trim the nic a little more. You might use it to stretch other liquids that have strong flavors, too. You might even goof around with a little DIY in the future if it annoys you while it sits there unused. :)

So could I just buy straight PG and VG and use equal parts to cut them? so say I am wanting to cut the 24mg nic 30ml bottles down to 6mg nic, Can I take 120ml of a 50/50 PG/VG and mix to that 30ml of 24mg nic juice and make it 6mg nic? or am I thinking to hard?
