Hey :)

I visited "Vapor Zone" and they made me a custom blend on the spot, they had flavoring pump bottles that release the exact amount they need (looks exactly like Starbucks flavoring bottles lol), and it took them literally a minute to create a custom mix, one press on that, 2 on that and that's it :)

I was looking to get few pumps like that home, but everything I found is kinda expensive.

Any suggestions where I can find it for cheap?


Thanks!

Have you started DIY yet? There's a whole lot of basic gear that makes this easy. No need to go that far as automated dispensers if you haven't even got your feet wet.

Thanks but I thought going that way will save me the trouble of getting other equipment and doing calculations, it looks so simple when they do that in their store.
I see that madvapes sells pre-mixed vg/pg with nicotine, and the flavoring is dirt cheap, so 3 bottles of different flavors and a premixed non flavored eliquid shouldnt be enough for me?

Dunno I'm not a heavy vaper but I was planning to get 3 bottles like those, not really fill them till the end, and make my own combinations, it looks like it can save me bunch of money on liquids on the long run :)

No disrespect meant, but buying 3 syringes will save you a lot more money. I think the best course of action is to keep it simple. That's what I do.

Cheers,
Steve

Have you ever seen a kitchen put together a customer's meal. It's bing-bang-boom and the plate is one the warm shelf for the waitress.

They have already developed the recipes. They have already done the measurements. They have already done the calculations. And then done all the prep-work so a squirt equals a proper dose.

Painting a car looks quick and easy too...If you don't see all the work that goes into it before the painter presses that lever on the paint sprayer.

I hate to rain on your parade, but making e- liquid requires much calculation, specifically ratios and percentages. There's a reason why we use tools like syringes, pipettes and graduated cylinders: they're inexpensive and accurate.

Obviously calculations have to be done to calibrate those correctly to suit recipes similar to the way pop vending machine are mixing in syrup. So you would have to do them anyway plus learn how to do the calibrating. Way more complicated, risky if you do it wrong, and expensive than just using simple tools like syringes. For instance, I make my own root beer and measure the flavoring with a teaspoon. However, if I were making it for a bottling plant and not only speed but employee-accuracy was necessary, then I would use something like that.

I'm surprised at all the nay-sayers here.

The diy advice is great, and likely very appreciated .... but .... the OP 'wants' them enough to ask here, and who are we to discourage. Everyone's diy experience is different and its totally possible she/he will learn enough to make them work perfectly for her/him. Some of my best e-liquids were made free-hand, with just an easy calculation for the nic. Very hard to replicate but delicious none the less.

So taking all the helpful advise into consideration, I hope you find them Sweetie - and enjoy the experimentation. ;)

Well, it IS an idea for an entrepeneur. There are homemade pop machines on the market now so, in the future, why not a mini, at-home, DIY setup like that for at-home mixing complete with recipes? Depending on what happens with legislation, it could be a good money-making idea.. even for zero nic vaping. I can see it now on "Shark Tank." LOL
