Hi guys, FIRST POST :)
Anyway, I bought some 100% Glycerine from my local pharmacy and was looking to just use this and water to fill my cartridges. Im not sure what ratio i should use.... Someone said just 1:1 but I dont think this can be right. So if you could let me no a ratio to use? I have quit but really missed the experience and the tricks :) I dont care about any flavour and dont want any nicotine, thanks :D

Also, I bought an extremely cheap ecig, it works really well! JW if anyone would wanna buy one for like mabyee.... $10, with three carts and a charger, THANK-YOU! :laugh:

USP does not mean all vegetable. They are allowed to use animal glycerin in USP Glycerin. The walk-in store ones we know are all vegetable are the Humco brand at Walmart (near the rubbing alcohol - Humco was asked and said it was all vegetable) and the Wilton brand at Michael's Crafts near the cake decorating stuff. The CVS brand may be OK. You can also check health food stores t see if they have a USP all-vegetable glycerin with nothing else added. Other than that it is a crap shoot so you could get good tasting all-vegetable glycerin or a not good tasting one that includes animal glycerin.

If you use tap water or spring water you can cause mineral deposits on your atomizer. Distilled is the cleanest water. I think with the right equipment you can turn water to steam then catch the condensed steam droplets and that may be distilled? I don't know. 10th grade chemistry was a long time ago.

You obviously have internet. Go to Google and type: how to make distilled water

Or you should be able to buy distilled water at the grocery. It is used in steam irons and other things people don't want gunked up with mineral deposits.

In theory you can distill your own, just that it is so cheap to buy (at least in the US). Otherwise, any reasonably pure water (demineralized, deonized, reverse osmosis...) should be fine. Talk to a chemist at a local pharmacy, and they should point you to the cleanest water they sell.
