I know this probably had been asked but I can't seem to find exactly what I need. I am trying to make a 50/50 juice with 12mg nic. What do I need exactly? What nic base should I use? I've made some simple g nic 100% VG juice for dripping which is great but I need something for Kayfuns and such. Any and all help is appreciated

Have you downloaded a juice calculator? If not I find ejuice me up to be good and easy to work with.

To answer your question on how to achieve 50/50 12mg juice. I use pg based nic. Then add any additional pg/VG plus flavor based on what I enter in the ejuice software.

There's a long thread called nicotine comparisons talking about the various vendors who carry nic base. That might be help full to you. I use nude nicotine for nic base and essential depot for pg/VG. Good luck!

I normally order mine premixed at 50/50. Depending on what your nicotine base is (pg or vg) find out how much nicotine will be used, Example if it's 9.5ml of nicotine to be used then subtract that from either the pg or vg base. Add 40.5ml% pg or vg to your 50% pg or vg and you'll get the 50/50.

Simplest way to achieve your results would be to buy some 48 mg/mL 100% PG concentrate.

Say you buy a 25 mL bottle of concentrate, mix it with an equal amount, 25 mL of PG, you now have 50 mL of 24 mg/mL PG liquid.

If you mix the result with an equal amount, 50 mL of VG, the result is 100 mL of 12 mg/mL 50/50 unflavored base....:)

My initial simple solution was to order my pg and my vg from Wizard Labs - both at 12 mg/mL. Yes, I know that adding a few drops of flavoring will reduce the 12 mg/mL of nic slightly, but so what. I knew I was safe and very close to a "medium to light" nicotine level.

I really don't care whether I am vaping 10 mg/mL or 11.75 mg/Ml - .60/40, 50/50, etc. This allowed me to just worry with the amounts of flavorings to achieve the taste I was after.

Rednecks are pretty easy to please...

I second ejuicemeup. Can't go wrong regardless of what base you start with as long as the #'s you input are accurate. I personally prefer 100mg/ml @ 100% vg. I like 12mg strength and it's easy to memorize : 1.2ml/10ml mix - 1.8ml/15ml mix - 3.6ml/30ml mix and so on. It's nice to memorize your preferred strength in case you have an oopsie with the calc. You can catch it easily before adding to the bottle.
