nic base

[the dog]

What is the most common nicotine base ordered or what works better 100%vg,100%pg or 50\50 i m ordering my first diy kit so I just would like to make sure

I forgot I usually vape 70\30 or 80\20 vg\pg thanks

I'd say 100% of either pg or vg and then you can just adjust your mix accordingly.

Right on I knew you'd answer me right away for some reasons you my friend are great I'm placing my order thanks pal

 

[mongo74]

LOL anytime.

I would not get 100% PG - or you may find you can't REACH your target ratio!
Flavoring is usually in a PG base - so you could already be 15% PG depending on the recipe...see what I mean?

I forgot I usually vape 70\30 or 80\20 vg\pg thanks

Buy your nic base in the closest mix to the juice you vape, keeping in mind (as Train2 said) that flavors add PG to the mix.

I buy mine in 75pg/25vg and mix for a final ratio of 70pg/30vg. Next mix session I'm considering 60pg/40vg for an experiment in vapor increase. I'm doing Hangsen as high as 12% in some flavors and noticing a vapor decline on those juices.

There's something to be said for FlavourArt flavors with their high concentrations. You don't have to use as much and the final mix doesn't get skewed so much by a 2% flavor additive.

I use the ejuice me up calculator, and as any calculator I imagine, if you are using a mix that can't be obtained it will let you know. So enter all your specifics in your calc., and see if it flies. Do this as a test to see what your nic in pg/vg will do. You should be able to tell if a 100% in either pg or vg will work, or even a 50/50 mix. I hope this helps, and is understandable, as my head is still a little foggy as I type this.

Foggy head aside, using a calc b4 buying makes perfect sense.

Buying seperate PG,VG and NIC and using a calculator to formulate your base allows you to create any combination of base you want and saves you money in the long run.
