I got a question for the DIYers: If I vape 50/50 juices, is it logical to order nic in a 50/50 base? I've read through some of the stickies in the DIY forum and read some blogs but I can't really find an answer. Wouldn't I then add additional pg and vg bases in equal amounts to my desired nic level to keep the juice at 50/50?

If your base is 50/50 and you add pg flavor to it, it won't be 50/50 anymore. OOOPs the nic can be 50/50 but you'll still need separate PG and VG to end up with the ratio you want either way.

6 of 1, half dozen of another...

The flavoring will have pg base most of the time from what I have seen. Soo you need to calculate that in as well. Nic you get will also have either pg or vg base. I use wizard labs Fyi. You can choose which base you want. I keep both to answer your question. You may already have one of these but if not here's a link

Hey folks, It's my first post in this section so be kind.
I'm not only worried about big brother trying to remove our vaping enjoyment but also taxing it like cigarettes. I quit smoking not only for the health benefit but 9 bucks a pack was crazy. I did understand the burden that cigarettes put on health care and accept the fact that those taxes were supposed to offset those cost. It seems now the government is going to try to recoup lost revenue on us again for no reason and no proof. Well I have much more but I can assure you it will go into a larger rant and I think everyone knows where it's going. Anyway hello everyone!
Check the link in my signature for what YOU can do to add to the cause. At no cost too!!
And welcome to the porch!
Good evening all... I am so lucky to have a fabulous mail carrier. I live in a small community and the same person delivers mail to the shop and our hope. I do go out of my way to talk with him on a daily basis, ask him how things are going in his world etc. He gets almost as excited about my vape mail as I do:p
Best mail carrier to have! Hope you show him your VAPEMAIL!!

As the wife of a hellacious DIY mechanic minded hubby who rebuilt an old Chevy to a sleeper stealth monster and the sis in law of a GM mechanic who's even better than his brother at rebuilding, I've come to appreciate that "need for speed" feeling they share. You won't find them in the stands with their guts stickin' out and hootin' and hollerin' with beer in hand, they'll be down around the pits talking to the teams and checking out the cars.

I can understand guys like that a lot better. But not the garden variety in the stands, not at all. Guys that are really into cars, it makes sense for them, those are some very fast cars! But I don't see the appeal of *watching* them go round and round, for... however long it takes. If I was gonna watch anything car/speed oriented, it would probably be those cars that basically shoot parachutes out of their rear ends. :p

I take my wife out to dinner and ya'll have been busy!!! 6 pages! Hope I don't miss a reply!

Should I consider a 510-510 connector to protect the threads and will that just make the atty sit even higher?
I had one and would recommend the 510-510 connector to protect the top post. Mine got pushed down with use and then was a pain. Well worth the few $ to protect the threads and contacts.

Please let us know what your wife thinks of the teaberry e-liquid. I'm bummed because Mount Baker Vapor stopped making theirs. It was good, perhaps needing a tiny bit of sweetness, but much better than the overly sweet ones I'd gotten elsewhere.
My wife loves the Teaberry from SmokeAnyWhereForPennys. She tried others but found them lacking in flavor. She's a flavor junkie. She's getting hers 60/40 with 12mg of nic. Teaberry is hard to find. It really eats up the plastic tanks so be sure to use a glass tank with it.

Well they didn't get out of the truck and we missed em again. I don't get my Provari until monday after finding the courage to brave the post office. :(
That stinks!!! Tell the Muttonhead to get his act straight!!! Glad I have such a great mail carrier. I guess I should tip him!!!

You remind me that football season is OVER. I'm soooooooooooooooo depressed.:facepalm:
But basketball season is in full swing. The question is,"Carolina, NC State or Duke?"

Our main mail carrier, the one my husband talked to, always sees me running out to the mailbox whenever I see him put *anything* in the mailbox, and he always says hello, if he's close enough. He's the real deal; since my husband talked to him, I see him make a real effort to make sure the mailbox is fully closed -- there is a traintrack just down the road from us, and when the trains go by, if it's not closed all the way, the vibration makes it fall completely open. I think he understands what all this recent package-delivery is all about, too, because he no longer sees me out there *smoking*! (which he did ALL THE TIME because I smoked ALL THE TIME!!!) :D

heh... I live in the same town as the Atlanta Speedway... but when I think of NASCAR, I think of rednecks with beer in hand and beer belly proudly stuck out, hollerin their damn fool heads off... I've never gotten it at all. Simple pleasures for simple minds, I always say! :D

I don't think so. You mean feetball? I tolerate my husband's interest because he tolerates my internet addiction, but I understand feetball about as much as he understands computer/internet stuff -- not at all! :D

I always thought it should be called footelipsoid... balls are round, I always thought...? ;)
