Too much nicotine? What's the math?

[Joey_cope]

So I'm making my own e-juice. I have 48mg nicotine mixed with PG. How much do I need to put in a 30ml bottle to have 24mg/ml (2.4%) nicotine? I've searched for answers and all I can find is people saying "leave it to the pros" or "don't do it". If I was in the business of selling e-juice, I would try to convince everyone to quit making their own so it doesn't cut Into my profits but that's neither here nor there. Every "pro" had to start somewhere. And it almost always begins a a hobby. I know the risks and what safety precautions I need to embrace. All is well.

Anywho, thanks for any guidance you can give. I have a couple of calculators but they seem too confusing to use. And I know I can't be the only one. I'm far from an idiot lol. For now I'm just mixing using e-juice cookbooks and recipes. Thanks guys!!

If you want 24mg nic juice, you will need 15ml of 48mg nic.

Basically the math goes;

Ok, what percentage of 48mg is 24mg?

=50%

So your juice has to be 50% nic solution to give you a 24mg juice.

=50% of 30ml = 15ml.

If you started with 100mg nic, and you wanted to make 24mg, 24mg of 100mg is 24%

24% of 30ml = 7.5ml of nic to make a 24mg ejuice

Following yet?

Or you can just use a simple online calc - ...apparently I can't post links, but google "dot1ml mixer"
