Has anyone measured Hangsen bottle # of drops per mL from Bull City Vapor? I don't have a measuring cylinder with a fine enough scale and the 1 mL syringe I have has an weird extension at its tip to accurately fill and measure small amounts of liquid from a beaker.

OK, I tinkered with a 3 mL syringe and I came up with 35 drops in 0.5 mL. So 7 drops in 0.1 mL. This gives:

7 drops per 1% of 10mL bottles.

I came up with about 86 drops per ml. That's with the metal needle tip bottles. Also I keep my flavors in the fridge.

You may just want to invest in some decent syringes. As your finding out not all droppers are the same and your results will vary consideribly from dropper to dropper. And temperature variations will produce different size drops from the same dropper..

I need to get decent 1 mL syringes. The one I have doesn't slide very smoothly.

I updated my shopping list. I already have these:

Indian
RY1

I have these in the next shopping list:

Arabic
Pipe
Elder Captain
No 5
Gold & Silver

Are there any flavors that are too similar between these seven flavors that I can remove any?

I'd like to have a more complex tobacco flavor with just a touch of sweetness, perhaps a bit fruity, nutty and maybe a touch of cocoa/chocolate. But still I'd like get good fresh tobacco flavor out of it (and without any dominant Latakia type bacon smoke/campfire flavor). Does any of the above fit this description? Am I asking too much, LOL :)

Thanks.

Arabic is good for a bit of chocolate

Elder captain is good for a sweeter slightly lighter tobacco

No 5 is good for a nutter tobacco.

Pipe seems to be on the lighter side and needed a bit more then my usual 7%

RY1 seemed to be a nice flat well rounded tobacco that would make a good tobacco base for combining. But on it's own seemed a bit boring.

Now that's me and my taste and your conclusions may be totally different. So as always your mileage may vary.

Thanks Danny for the help. I'm looking forward to trying these.

Arabic to me is a spicy tobacco, you could say Arabic spices. I literally can't vape any other flavors but Arabic now. It's been my adv for quite a while. It gives me the most th of any I've tried, as well as the strongest flavor. Others just don't stand up to it in those departments. It may take a few tanks to let the flavor grow on you... I've never noticed chocolate in it but I've never gone over 4% either.

I mix the original hangsen bottles flavor at 2.6-2.8%. Rebottled flavoring from rts I run at 3%. 1 week steep the flavor will be good enough.

Great. Thanks Jeremy. It sounds like an interesting vape. I'm mixing my flavors at 3.5% now.

USA mix, i find, is good. A nutty flavor, Not as rich as highway. USA mix is very similar to ry2 flavor. The ry2 is the nuttier ry with low sweetness.

Re: Arabic..

I have been to many Indian homes in the course of my job . The flavors spice is very close to their spices .. If you know how people from India's house smells from cooking... You'll notice it for sure. Curry? Or whatever the smell is. I find the vape to be very good.
