Hello there once again fellow Reo members :) i've been asking quite a few questions about reo mini here recently as I want to be ready to vape once my device gets here (found out today customs stopped it for "inspection" :( an probably charge me international tax :/.

Anyway I wanted to make sure I have my juice ready to get good vapor and throat hit. (I know there is a a separate mixing section in the forum but wanted to get your ratios ;) First I wanted to ask, what PG/VG ratios are you using?

Second I use this calculator to make my juice eJuice Recipe Calculator , but I've noticed many here use 50/50. Now I have 50mg PG nicotine liquid, and to my understanding apart from PI the flavor is PG based as well right?

With the use of the calculator can you tell me what quantities should I put in the water (I assume that would be VG/AG) section.

Can someone give me an example of 50/50 PG/VG quantities with the use of this calculator if I wanted to make 10ml of juice at 14mg strength with 20% flavor?

Thanks in advance, I think that's about the last thing I am not too sure about (read and watched so much about reo ;)

pg/vg ratio to me it depends on the flavor, I make a kona cream to me tastes better at 100% vg same goes for caramel corn, hazel nut tabaco tastes better to me at 40/60 or 50/50 I never use water in my diy.
if you want a 50/50 ratio you might want to pre cut some of your nic with 50% vg that way you're starting with a 50/50 nic base so you would be working with 25mg vg/pg and your messurments would look like this

PG /VG with nicotine(50/50 25mg) 5.6 ml 112 drops
PG (no nicotine) 1.2 ml 24 drops
VG (no nicotine) 1.2ml 1.2 ml 24 drops
Water 0.0 ml 0 drops 0.0%
Flavoring(s) 2.0 ml 40 drops 20.0%

you could also premix a 50/50 pg vg and simplify the whole thing
(meant to say I never use water not never use water oops)

This is the juice calculator I use, I find I like it the best, simple. :e-Juice Calculator | ecigexpress

Can someone give me an example of 50/50 PG/VG quantities with the use of this calculator if I wanted to make 10ml of juice at 14mg strength with 20% flavor?

On mine it would be this: All measurements ML
Base Nic 50
Target Nic 14
Amount made 10
Flavor 20

Calculated it would be:
Base with Nic 2.8
Base no Nic 5.2
Flavor 2

So if you want to split the base with no nic 50-50 you would take the 5.2 and split to 2.6 each of PG/VG
If you want to do all juices with the 50-50 mix of PG and VG you could pre-mix and then use from the mixed bottle.
Water, PGA, or Vodka are added if you want to make your juice a little thinner. You do not need to use them.

Hope this helps. Personally I use just VG in all my REO's and am very happy with the results.
