The REAL dollars and cents of E-liquid

[GoneWiththeWind]

I've been seriously considering Diy'ing my own juice, but, I'm still in the fact-finding stage. Which led me to realize the following:

1oz.=2 tablespoons=30 ml=(average bottle of e-liquid/juice)

Most vendors (not DIY) charge between $10-16 for 30 ml.

Can of soda=12oz. If that can of soda were priced as if it were e-liquid = $12 (per ounce)*12oz, that can of soda would cost

$144.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course, the benefits of non-smoking are priceless, but, dang....

Actually, most cans of soda are 12oz.

Buy your PG & VG by the 2 gallons. Your Nic no less than per quart, 1,000 mL's. And, flavoring no less than 4 oz, 8 is better. It can get downright affordable. About 6 cents per mL Niquid cost. JMHO

Cheers,
otrpu

Definately not the cheepest, but easy enough everyone could buy today. 8)

There is a reason there are 500 little e-juice sites out there, if you have money to blow, they are happy to take all of it.

It definitely is cheaper to DIY the ejuice, especially if you are willing to vape the ones that just didn't turn out quite right. If you are seriously considering it, myfreedomsmokes.com has a coupon code right now 20%off (written just like that with no spaces)that works on the unflavored. Someone else may know of a better deal, but that is the best deal I've found. I only buy 500 ml at a time, but figuring cutting it down to 12-15 mg strength, my preffered range, a500 ml bottle of 100mg/ml lasts a really long time. Good luck to you if you decide to start, the mixing is addicting in itself, albeit slightly dangerous.

I calculate juice cost per ml and I've got it down to 11 - 15 cents per ml buying bulk. At this price, DIY is not necessary. But it could be fun.

The calculator from BreakTru comes with quite a few recipes that are pretty tasty. You can also submit your own recipe for inclusion in future updates.
It's the most handy calculator I've used to date. Very straightforward.

Ejuicemeup is the calc I use also, super easy.
