Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

I've been reading your posts (and you are doing fine)... don't mean to give you a hard time at all but it's really just basic math. It is much easier to mix your base (unflavored) first then add flavors. Yes, the flavors will dilute the nic and add some PG but it's not a big deal. I mix my unflavored base 100 ml at a time (makes it super easy to do the math) 70 ml VG + 30 ml PG = 100 ml. I will admit, doing the math on the nic (I have some in VG, some in PG and some in 50/50... half/half) does get complicated (and I'm really good at math) What I do is have marks on my bottle (120 ml so there is extra space for air to shake it up) The marks are every 10 ml with the top mark at 100 ml (that way the ml = percent) I have two "extra" marks for the nic (depending on if it's PG or VG) Haven't tried this yet with the 50/50 nic. Yea, I guess it really does get complicated after all. Just realized using the 50/50 nic is going to be a ...... I take it back... it may be "basic math" but it isn't actually simple. Have I totally confused you? I sure have confused myself LOL

It’s best to not confuse folks.

Sadness it seems that my drag nano is dead and it was the one pod that I really liked but it’s not working and won’t charge

U must delete it from your speadsheet now

I mixed 3 recipes yesterday in about 10 minutes and half of that was finding the flavors. I do not pre-mix base nic because it is so fast to just mix everything on a scale. If I mixed a huge batch of base then I'd probably want to change my nic level from 12 to 10mg. Not worth it to me.

Good list but all of them could use some extra graham (and a good steep... weeks not days)

You really should post this as your opinion only and stop trying to sound like some kind of expert. Have you tried them all?

We all mix the way that works best for us.

TGIF! I decided to get a flu shot today when I go for my checkup. Maybe others if the doc recommends them. I have never had a flu shot but I figured it would be worth it. I may ask for a pneumonia shot too if he thinks it's a good idea. I like that he always does a chest xray, besides the normal blood and urine tests. I also need another prescription of my allergy meds.

Another zoom meeting at 11 am.

Happy mixing!

I'm glad it's Friday too RJ. Any more, I'm about worn out by the time Friday comes.

Good morning random folks Have you any plans today?

Welcome to the random thread, @Superuser187.

I'm glad it's Friday too RJ. Any more, I'm about worn out by the time Friday comes.

I know, me too. This was an unusually busy week. I'm having to drive into town three days this week which is wearing me out since I'm so spoiled from working from home. I try to just rest up on the couch on Friday nights and go to bed early since I always have a lot of chores to do on the weekends.

I got vapemail yesterday. I received my black Coolfire IV mod! I love those things and I'm glad I've got it with help from @JCinFLA . I think all I have left are the replacement coils from asmodus that they graciously are honoring since they did not come in the original shipment since the package was opened. The pulse 80 bottles are probably lost forever so I've written them off and ordered more replacement bottles which did make it to my mailbox.

I have my eye on a couple more rtas...but I don't need them. I'm still thinking about it though. It's just purely to have all the colors in my stash.

I need to unsubscribe from a bunch of vendors as well @englishmick . Ejuices and ecigmafia send TONS of emails. I can't keep up with them so I'm going to unsubscribe.

No real plans today. Hubs is playing plumber so I'm going to vacate the house soon-ish. I have to pick up a birthday present (video games) for my son.

I haven't been ordering a lot but have ordered a few things here and there since I figure that once the hammer really drops then we won't be able to get a lot of stuff. I bought several boxes of the .15 and .2 voopoo pnp coils for my pnp tanks but am kind of wishing now that I had gone for the .45 coils instead. The ones I got are ok but have to run them fairly high wattage. I got a pnp rta and like it well enough but it's only 2ml capacity which is a bit of a pain since it's bottom fill. The pnp pod tanks are around 4ml.

I get the flu almost yearly so I got the flu shot one year and still ended up sicker than a dog....not sure what the point of the shot was if I still ended up with the flu...
then again, last year I got the flu and well, I'm lucky I'm still alive, spent about 2 months delirious with fever...took 6 months to get over it....so I mean....it's probably best to get the flu shot, if nothing else you may still get the flu but not as bad as it could have been.....

which is why I ain't playing around with this covid bs and my happy little azzz has been at home isolated since march...

Morning Mixers!

Like RJ I get the flu shot and I think I'm supposed to get the pneumonia one too but I never have. I just hate leaving the house to get them. May get a haircut today, I really need it.

Good morning random folks Have you any plans today?

Besides work related stuff, I have a double header to watch. Also, I think I might mix 10 or 20ml of eliquid using that browner River Supply nic that I had to get replaced. I kind of want to see if I can tell a taste difference between the darker nic.

Plans today to catch fish, and that we did. 15,000 lbs total of fish the last 3 days which is pretty good.
