I vape 10mg juice. I was given 120ml of 3mg juice.

1. How much straight nic would I need to add to bring it to 10mg?

2. Is there a chart or calculator for these things?

3. If I literally need only a couple oz of nic, is there a cheap way to get it? Shipping makes small purchases so expensive.

Thank you!

Check with some of the popular nicotine vendors for a sample size 10ml-15ml of 100mg/ml.

Excellent. Is there a list of friendly suppliers?

I use Liquid Nicotine Wholesale, I've not asked about samples. Most will give a sample if asked. You'll have to pay shipping from all of them.

I use Nicotine River and I've been happy with them. I haven't asked, but I imagine that they'd be willing to ship a small "test" sample, many vendors will do that. Shipping will probably not be free, but overall cost would be less.

If you are looking to get more into DIY or NEED any other supplies sometimes it's helpful to order from one vendor, after a certain price point my shipping is free with Nicotine River, although I can't remember what that price point is. But if you need syringes, extra bottles, etc., it might make sense to purchase it all from one place.

You may want to check around and see which wholesalers are closest to you, if you are looking to minimize costs. There are a few "big" trusted wholesale vendors at ECF, I know Nicotine Giant is one, Wizard labs is another (I believe they sell nicotine) but you could check the "approved vendors" forums, and there will likely be New Year's sales as well if you can wait.

Best of luck, Google will probably be your friend here.

You can still get a 15mL sample of 100mg/mL nicotine base from Nude Nicotine, the last I checked. IIRC they have you pay $2.95 or somewhere near that for the shipping. Look for the info. & link for it on their website. Even their regular, least expensive nic base is very very good, IMO.

Try one of the Calculators here that do not require a download or install to use. Even has calculators for mixing Liquids with Nicotine and flavors with Nicotine.

vape shop close to my house only carries 3mg e-juice but they have the nic pods. 1 pod raises 60ml up 3mg its pretty convenient since I want 6mg e-liquid.

Check with local shops. Because people want different Nic levels, they just carry 3mg juices and then "go in the back room" and add more nic.

Some will sell small amounts or give it away to regular customers. Beats paying for shipping.

The calculators are very helpful too, thanks.

I have some more powerful rebuildables now, so I think I'm getting plenty of nic in my 3-6% juice. And lately I don't seem to see much difference between 3% and 10%, isn't that funny? Hard to imagine I started out with 18% but there were no RBAs back in those days I guess.
