Oh wise ones I have a question.

Ever since I got into dripping i'm chain vaping like a fiend. As a result, at night (when I vape the most) i am struggling with the 6mg. I have gotten some zeroes and i'm really enjoying the flavor without the dizziness, however, I still want to be able to load up some nic in the morning...

here is my question: can I get just plain nic to mix in with my fav's in smaller bottles?

Here is an example, say I get a bit 30ml of my fav's, I then want to load up a small 5ml bottle of my delishuus 0mg and add a few drops of nic to bring it up to 3mg, just for the kick in the morning, do I get a bottle of 12mg nic and just add a few drops? or do I get a bottle of 3mg nic?

Any advice is welcome, help me out!

(the only advice I wont take is to stop vaping so much, out of the question :D)

If you're mixing your own juice, maybe easiest to just make two bottles (0mg and 3mg versions) of unflavored base - one no-nic and one 3mg base. then you can mix whatever flavor you want at either strength.

Or do you already have vendor liquid that you want to change?

im not making my own just yet. this is to add nic to name brand juices.

Ok, let me get this calculator going and see what's what.

If you take 27.5ml of Brand X 0mg and add 2.5ml of 36mg nic, you'll get 3mg Brand X 30ml
If you take 28.125 of Brand X 0mg and add 1.875ml of 48mg nic, you'll get 3mg Brand X 30ml
If you take 28.5ml of Brand X 0mg and add 1.5ml of 60mg nic, you'll get 3mg Brand X 30ml

I do not recommend you going over 60mg nic, not at all. There are still safety precautions you should observe when using any nic.

Nicotine is generally referenced as "mg" which is crappy shorthand for mg/ml.

If you had 9ml of 0-nic and added 1ml of 12mg/ml, you would have 12mg / (9ml + 1ml) = 1.2mg/ml and your flavor would be diluted.

If you had 8ml of 0-nic and added 2ml of 12mg/ml, you would have 24mg / 10ml = 2.4mg/ml and your flavor would be lowered even more.

If you're not mixing your own, it's usually easier, and tastier, to buy your juice in different nicotine levels for different times of the day.

this is what I feared :( I have done this in the past, buy a bottle of 6 and a bottle of 0... sheesh!!! vape heaven is expensive!
