I recieved my order today. I got 500ml of 48mg/ml VG and 500ml of 48mg/ml PG. I am mixing down to 12mg/ml (pre-flavoring), so I only needed 3 500ml bottles of pg and vg, each. But it was economical for me to just get 2 1-liters each of pg and vg.
I'll end up with 2 liters of 12mg vg, 2 liters of 12mg pg, and 500ml each no-nic pg and vg, for dilutions. For reference, 500ml is about the size of a 16oz softdrink.
I am set for the year, for e-liquid base, for about half the cost of only one month of smoking (before I quit). And the coupon saved me over $30. I was feeling guilty for not catching WizardLabs in stock, but honestly, now I'm absolutely thrilled with the purchase. I am saving SO much money already, monthly. And now I'll be saving a LOT more.
Also, I am off smokes for 3 months and 3 days. I have gone from 24mg to 18mg to 12mg, and I am happy to start my DIY by diluting 12mg base with flavoring. If in a few months, I have to go to 8 or 6 or whatever, then it won't be the end of the world, I'll just need some pure vg or pg to cut with. Since I can now make myself sick by chain-vaping 12mg, I don't plan on going back up, ever.
I am thinking I will get my bottles from Specialty Bottle. I want to get amber and blue glass 8oz. bottles for UV protection, split them out 200ml per bottle, labelled pg or vg, and stash them in a dark place, safe from the cats or breakage. But they are out of blue right now.
I made my first flavor orders today. I just copped out and grabbed some first flavorings from MBV. I figure I can always fall back on extreme ice, etc.
I learned my way around by reading the posts here. Best to everyone!!
Glad to hear about your great experience!
If you're in the market for bottles and you happen to have Amazon Prime, you might want to do some looking on there as well. Free shipping and (depending on where you live) no sales tax could save you some more money.
I bought these 120 mL amber glass bottles from Amazon and love them.
I had bought 100 mg nicotine and cut it down to 50/50 24mg base. Makes it extremely easy to cut further to 18/12/6 mg mixes.
Out of curiosity, how was your batch of nicotine from RTS Vapes? Mixes taste good?
Cut it all and vaped some tonight. Yeah, all good! Seems very nice, tastes great. And the 0-nic leftovers are nice, they improved the flavor of some older strong juices I cut down, so I remain absolutely thrilled.
It's fun to play with, I hope it lasts as long as I think it will.
I stressed on bottles then didn't get any. I brown-wrapped and stashed my liters in the back of the fridge, lol. I do have Prime tho(!!), thanks great tip, we got it for the streaming video, and I always forget to use the free shipping on purchases.
Blend on!! I have a micro-pantry off the kitchen which stays cluttered, and I am actually going to make space for a mixing lab in there.
