If I mix two pre-made 12mg liquids, will that affect how much actual nicotine there is? I'm just trying to wrap my head around it. Does it double the nicotine content?

I would think that the nic would be the same - I'm mixing an 18 mg w/no nic flavs to give them a little kick...
12mg + 12mg will stay 12mg. Any time you mix a stronger juice with a weaker juice it brings the stronger juice down in mg's.

If you mix 12 mg with 12 mg, you still have 12 mg nic juice. But, for instance if you mix half 24 mg with half 12 mg, you will end up with 18 mg. Nother words, add the two numbers and divide by two. That gives the strength of the mixed product.
Well...it's weighted averages, actually, but you can make that sort of thing a lot easier.
Here's a method that everyone can use easily:
Say that you want to mix 20mL of 36mg/mL juice with 30ml of 18mg/mL juice...just because. What's your end nic concentration going to be?
Multiply your quantity of the first liquid, by its concentration: 20mL * 36mg/mL = 720mg total of nic in liquid #1.
Multiply your quantity of the second liquid, by its concentration: 30mL * 18mg/mL = 540mg total of nic in liquid #2.
Since you'll be mixing all you have of both liquids together, you'll have 50mL of liquid in total, but you'll be adding the total nic together, too; so you'll have 1260mg of nic in the one bottle.
Now, divide that total nic (1260mg) by the amount of liquid you'll have it in (50mL): 1260mg / 50mL = 25.2mg/mL nic concentration by volume.

To add to this, here is a quick spread sheet I made to figure out what you need to mix to get the concentration you want.

Be sure to understand that you dont have 12mg of liquid, you have 12mg / ml (12 milligrams per milliliter) of liquid.
Thus if you have 5ml of one, and 5 ml of another, you have 10 ml of 12mg / ml liquid, not 24mg of liquid.
I'm sure that could be explained better, but I hope it helps.
