Just keep da PG & VG in an interior cupboard or closet. It ain't goin' bad any time soon!
Well, at 80/20, I'm, going to have to go through a lot of gallons of PG before I use it all. With 500ml of VG from WL it actually costs more for the shipping than it does for the VG. Had my gallon of PG for over a year now and it's still going strong. Ordering some more nic plus the gallon of VG and I get free shipping. If some of the VG does go bad, I'll still be ahead. Need some VG? :)

I bought some from a store over here beginning of the year and the bottle has a best before date stamped on it of Dec 2018
:lol: That's even longer than I thought they'd say it was good for.

I found
100mg Nicotine Solution - 250ml
$29.99 Over at Wizard Labs, is that enough to start with ? If I then buy some PG/VG to do my mix ? Just wonder'in. Say a Liter of each just to start ?
Hi 52! I don’t want to sound overly alarming but better to do so than lead you astray. 100mg/ml nicotine, the one you are talking about, is very potent stuff and can burn and/or poison you if you’re not careful. It should be used in a well ventilated area and not come in contact with your skin. May I humbly suggest you try the 60mg/ml nic first so you become comfortable working with it. Also, if you have pets or children around, do NOT let them get into the nic or the juice, it can poison or kill them. End of lecture.

If I were you, and it’s what I did, I’d buy the 120 ml of the 60mg/ml and give it a whirl. You can get PG there too but get the VG at Wal-Mart or some similar place. Wal-Mart's looks like this:

Thanks, I did not know that being my first go around with this stuff (100mg/ml). I'll take your kind recommendation and aim for that. Thank You very much.

It's really making a difference. Made two coils like that and now I can get them both firing the same.
kewl!!

But if they vape that horrible purple ejuice do they turn purple?
A purple flamingo would be fantastic!!! loved the pic tutu!

That Wizard Labs 100mg nic says that it's cut with PG and or VG. That has me confused a bit, which is it already, they don't say, or does it even matter ?
You want to buy nic that is in pg, it mixes better and lasts longer than nic in vg per those who know more about this than I do. Some places will mix the pg and vg already in the nic. I have a liter of nic that is in 75pg 25 vg, But normally I would buy it in all pg. I did get the 100mg even the first time I mixed. I just did it at the sink, and was careful with it. However it is very powerful and very toxic. But most of us use it with some precaution in mind. But no need to dress in hazmat suits.

I wasn't suggesting the 4 gallons for you, just putting it out there for those who might want a LOT of pg and vg, but that is where I got my 1 gallon each of pg and vg when it was on sale for 50 shipped for both. Now it's 60 shipped for a gallon of each.

Just depends on what you want in it.
I get the 100% pg. Then i add flavourings and vg to make a juice.
Some people like to know the end ratios of their juice so they get the nic in the pg/vg ratio to help with that.

Nice Wolf. I don't have the red, but got a lil 2 ml tube of the deoxit gold from amazon. I just use alcohol swabs to clean the contacts since I don't sub ohm

One store here wanted $65 for dioxit gold 7.4ml bottle.
I got this kit with the gold and the red for $32 delivered.

So far the only "work" I've done with the 100mg/ml is to transfer it from the shipping bottle to glass bottles to put in the freezer. :lol: Did get a dab on my hand and it did burn a little. WLs sends you a pair of those latex or whatever gloves to handle it with but they're pretty big and awkward on me. And the nic can be absorbed through your skin so if you do get some on you, wash it off. I mix in the kitchen close to the sink so if there's problem, I can get it cleaned up easily. Just be aware the stuff is very potent. A couple of times with it and you'll be an old pro.

One of the coolest parts of DIY is cleaning everything with vodka afterwards. :D Don't forget to rinse with clean or distilled water.

Grrrrrr, not letting me edit. For long term storage, PG is recommended. When you do order it, it will give you a choice of what base (PG, VG) you want the nic in.
