DIY, my next thing to try. I have a fear of making my own though, not sure why.
many of us did......much of this for me came from reading the DIY threads. They make it seem like it has to be soooooooo precise, and you need a hazmat suit for 100mg nic etc. I wish I'd realized years earlier how simple it can be.
I worry about getting flavors and not realizing they need sweeteners. What I need is a "E-Liquid for dummies" book. FYI that is a hint for all you DIY ers to make one. Lol
Most flavorings don't need sweetners these days, but I bought a bottle of sucralose, or you can get a bottle of cotton candy flavoring, that's really just sweetner in case you mix something that isn't sweet enough.
Ya I have looked around in there. I think it scared me more. Lol I wish I could remember the site that had the pg/VG already mixed 50/50. I looked for that app yall mentioned but seems android does not have it.
As legs said, my freedom smokes has the nic already mixed in whatever pg/vg formula you want, but as mentioned, I'd really avoid that and get nic separate. It'll be much cheaper, and it's not a big deal at all. I do mix in the kitchen so I can rinse my hands if I spill any on me, but the way I do it, it would be really difficult to spill it. 100mg nic is toxic if you drink it, and can be toxic to pets. But I got stupid and put a syringe in my mouth that I'd pulled up some 100mg nic with, I put the plunger part in my mouth, cuz I didn't have anywhere to lay it down.......immediately realized it, cuz of the taste, took it outta my mouth, rinsed my mouth out, and I was fine, no nic sickness or anything, so it's not gonna kill ya if you get some on ya. The FDA will end up making nic impossible to get, or at such a high cost that it's going to stop a lot of folks from vaping. I have very limited resources, but that is my biggest thing is to get about 7 or 8 liters socked away in the freezer. So no one can stop me from vaping.
So you mix the nic & pg all at once?
A liter of 100 mg nic is basically 10% nic. (Ithink) The rest of the liter is either vg, pg, or a mix of the two. if you decide to get nic and pg and vg and mix it yourself, definitely get the liters of nic in all pg, as it mixes best and stores best in pg.
With my reos and being able to build coils, and make my own juice, I went 5 months where I had no money but I didn't have to buy anything at all for vaping.
I would definitely suggest trying concentrated flavors rather than TFA. With TFA you will end up around 20% at least with flavoring. Flavour Art, Capella Drops, Vaping Zone, and some others are highly concentrated, so you can get your flavoring down to around 5% or less. We really don't know what vaping the flavors does, so I prefer to have less in there myself even if it is concentrated. Plus, since I mix my base a 1/2 liter at a time, it doesn't skew my end result by much. It's still pretty close to 70 pg and 24mg nic after I add my flavors. I vape mostly fruity stuff and creamy stuff.
