Dang that's a pretty good price I may have to pick one up. I'm assuming it's good if you're using it haha

Actually, most of the stuff I have ordered it from your mixing by weight guide. :-) I'm excited! Thank you botboy!

Question:

I have a scale with .01 resolution, but it has an extremely hard time registering the first 3 drops or so. Do you find that this (or all other scales) suffer from that same lag/ deadzone?

It may be a minor issue as i just know that anything from .05> wont pick up when there is a fresh tare, but it would still be nice to have something a bit more responsive. My scale also has an issue with general lag time between dropped weight and no response, then immediately jumping .2 or so.

Thanks!

idk how crazy I am about that glycerin... is it food grade?

Its 99.5% pure VG. I don't know about the food grade part, as I don't have it in front of me, but I haven't had any issues using it in the past.

Highly recommend Nude Nicotine's PG/VG. The latest batch I got tested at 99.9% pure, the highest I've ever seen. Good stuff if you can afford it.

I have the same bottle, it's USP so it's food grade.

I also use this stuff. Walmart carries it for under $4 for 177ml. Not bad, never used any other brand for DIY, but if you need some in a pinch I highly recommend it. It is USP grade.
