Like the logo, RD. Nice touch!

I didn't care for the one that came with the program itself... it was too large for my taste and covered up too much area...

The down side is recently the program I made the logo with... has quit working, it tries to load and quits. I've reinstalled since then and it still doesn't work... so I may have to put it on another computer since something on this one is conflicting and I don't want to get rid of any other programs I've recently added.

OK, so I've been (am currently) reading the many, many pages on the stockpiling thread here. (Didn't realize, or never needed to open simultaneous threads here before, nice!). Anyway, maybe a sudden revelation/realization of something I just never bothered thinking about or dealing with before. I've said in the past I buy my nic in a pre-mix form, 24mg, 70/30. Never bothered with the higher strengths non mixed stuff before. Obviously we're not in Kansas anymore, Toto, so I need to step things up. So feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Please. For examples sake, I buy a litre of 100mg nic. I want to vape 20mg. So I'd only add a small percentage of that litre and then mix my PG/VG according to the size and ratio I'm mixing? The mixing calculators I used to use were mostly concerned with flavor mixing, if I remember right. I'm not worried about that, I know how to do that, I just want my nic strength to come out right. Or is my eyes looking at this screwyo_O

The amount of NIC is a percentage of the total... so using 100mg NIC makes it pretty easy... for 20mg you're NIC base would be 20% of the total amount of liquid... for 24mg it's be 24% of the total juice.

Let's say that another way...

If you were making 10ml of juice .... for 20mg you'd use 2ml of NIC base... 24mg you'd use 2.4ml of the total 10ml of juice that you make

J.

I'm going to add some other info... you didn't ask or mention...

With the Theorem ... if you are making more vapor which is likely... you won't need the NIC as strong as if you were vaping it in a Kayfun which doesn't make as much vapor... In otherwords, you are likely getting a more concentrated vape with the Theorem

OK, thanks. So I understand that. But let's say, how would a 70/30 PG/VG mix fit into mixing that? See, that's where it gets a bit clouded for me.

and now let me throw another wrinkle into this. just discovered that the vendor I've been using has a 100mg, 75/25 PG/VG mix. Initially I thought, oh, that's what I'm looking for. But...say I want a 24mg mix out of that. OK, 24%, right? But it's already got PG/VG in it! So what do I fill the other 76% with, not counting the flavoring?
And why am I NOT getting this??? I'm really not this dumb.

Then it depends on if the base in the NIC is VG or PG as well as what the base is in the flavoring itself...

This may make it easier... it's still my goto calc

E-Liquid Calculator Ten Flavors with PG/VG Adjusting

I think you must click the warning/readme first so it enables the calculator ... or it used to so I just do that now all of the time.

I'm uncertain how this will look here since it's formatted in columns with spaces on the other site....

This makes 100ml of 70PG/30VG at 24mg ... given in ml and drops. The flavoring here is 100% PG using 20% flavoring

100mg Nicotine E-Liquid 24 ml 480 drops 24 %
75%PG / 25%VG Set to 20 drops per ml

Supplies 24mg Nicotine per ml to Recipe

PG 32 ml 640 drops 32 % Set to 20 drops per ml
VG 24 ml 480 drops 24 % Set to 20 drops per ml
Flavor 1 20 ml 400 drops 20 % 100%PG / 0%VG Set to 20 drops per ml
