Need calulations for mixing these

[oplholik]

I am going to order some 36mg flavorless nic pg based, and some vg.
I have some RY4 flavoring pg base.
I want to end up with 14mg nic with a 70% pg and 30% vg mix.
I am wanting to start, I think, using 20% flavoring.
Would someone be so kind to calculate this for me. Seems whenever I look at the e-juice me up calc., that my eyes start to haze over and my brain starts going numb. Hopefully some day I'll get it figured out, but for now, I need help. Thanks.

how much do you want to make (ml)? and how do you measure (drips or mg)?

 

[emberl]

20 drops = 1 ml.

50 drops nic = 2.5 ml (36 mg)
40 drops pg = 2 ml
20 drops vg = 1 ml

down to about 14 mg nic.

total juice 5.5 ml juice.

5.5 ml juice = 110 drops.

20% of 110 = 22 drops of flavoring.

It does not have to be exact.

Good luck!

OOPS! Gonna start mixing 10ml's. I normally measure out stuff with a syringe, so mg., but could do drops.

Thanks, this looks pretty easy too. If all goes well, I'll be doing more of this with different flavorings.

I just noticed that where I was going to get the vg that it has approx. 15% distilled water, I want to get 100% vg right?

'scuse me for butting in, but I think 20% RY4 is a heck of a lot of flavoring

My all-day vape is among other things, 3% FlavourArt RY4 and I've used TPA RY4 at 10%, which was kinda overpowering. If you've used it before I'm happy to sit down and be quiet, but that sure seems like a heck of a lot of RY4 flavoring.

Whose RY4 are you using?

JMO but it doesn't matter. I work in straight VG and have to cut it with DW bit I'm not sure I'd be happy paying someone VG prices for water - I'd prefer to cut it myself

That said, I do use goodprophets 36mg VG nic, which is cut with water but it's 36mg after the cut, not before and is easier to work with than straight VG.

If you're looking for reasonable quantities you can buy VG locally cheaper than you can buy it online. I buy 16 oz bottles of NOW for nine bucks from the local Better Health store and have bought 6oz bottles of relabeled Humco from CVS for about a buck less than that. All national drug store chains carry glycerin - so does Wal-mart.

No problem with buttin in The flavoring I have is Goodejuice RY4 extract.
The ry4 I'm presently vaping and like is Dekang, and KBV ry4 with extra flavoring.
