Where do you get your supplies? specifically nicotine and flavors.

Thanks a lot

Vapourdepot/Chefsflavours/Vapable for Flavourings. Piratesvape for nicotine. Ampulla for bottles.

Edit: I mentioned those three companies for flavours as between them they have almost everything you could ever need. No single company offers every flavour and stockage is also a factor.

Just had a look on ampulla for bottles. They have so much on there it's really hard to find what I think im looking for. What do you search for when you buy bottles? I'm looking for some glass dropper bottles 30-50 ml and some 30-50ml plastic bottles.

Their layout is crap, yes. Glass droppers thin tip + 30ml bottle

If you want plastic then search elsewhere, they're easy enough to find. Ampulla are my go-to as glass bottles with decent droppers are hard to find and glass is far easier to clean and reuse.

Pirates vape for nic. Dark star for pg vg (possibly nic too but I've not tried it). Chefs vapor/vapable/rainbow vapes for flavors. ibottles for bottles. I'd avoid Vapor Depot for diy stuff though.

Dark Star is well known to be the best nicotine available, i've tried others but always use Darkstar

Why would you avoid Vapour Depot? I use them all the time.

Just not had a lot of luck with them. The only concentrates I've got from them that were any good were FA ones in the original bottles. Anything they rebottle seemed to be completely without flavour. I got a bottle of their "botanic elixir" that was just plain vg. I even put a few drops neat on my tongue and it just tasted of vg, nothing else. And that's billed as being super-potent. That was the worst I got from them but over the last year or so I've not had a good experiences with their concentrates. Plus I bought a sig150 tc from them when they came out. Paint just peeled off it. Got in touch with them and they said they'd look into it. But a few emails later no reply. So that was £80 ish quid down the drain. I know they get amazing press on here. Don't get me wrong I still order stuff from them when no one else has it in stock. And the rest of the hardware I've got from them has been fine. But I've recently ordered a fair few bottles of useless flavourless concentrate and have decided that I won't be using them again. Basically the section of my flavours with green lids is the don't use/had no taste section.

I know they have a lot of very vocal satisfied customers. But that's just my personal opinion. I think they're not worth using when I've never had the same problem with any of the other places I suggested. Plus the other three places almost always get me my orders the next day and vapour depot always take 2-3 days to come through.

Yeah I don't go out of my way to get stuff from them, just wherever is cheapest for the one I need from

JustVape24/7 ChefsFlavours Vapable VapourDepot

The main concentrates I got from them are their own stuff or real flavours, which I've now realised I haven't even used half of them. I will have to say the delivery does kinda suck compared to other places.

Everything from Vapable

I used to get everything from vapable as well until i got a batch of nic that was not great. Now i get my nic, PG and VG from Darkstar. Its great quality and cheaper. I know you dont get free delivery but even with that factored in its cheaper to get your stuff from Darkstar.

Another darkstar customer here.

I get my juice from Flavour Boss, cause I get through a lot with my Uwell Crown. As much as I loved juice like Cuttwood, it was costing me a fortune so now I buy clones instead.

Thanks everyone

I have a Totally Wicked local to me, so i checked their site, and they sell a DIY mixing kit.

I dont like Totally Wicked first off, i think they are a ripoff. £9.00 for 20ml, which is the same price as premium stuff i think, and their juice doesnt have anything premium about it IMO. I just use them as its local and i hate missing deliveries.

So for £32, at Totally Wicked, i get

  • 50ml 7.2% Nic

  • 100ml VG

  • 100ml PG

  • 40ml of flavour.

At Darkstar vapour i get

  • 100ml 7.2% Nic

  • 250ml VG

  • 250ml PG

  • 90ml Flavouring

For £21

I cant wait to get this stuff so i dont spend another penny at totally wicked.

Thanks again.

They're con artists, good for you. Seeing the price of juice and the label of premium grow exponentially in the last two years drove me to DIY.

For flavours and decent clones I use TMB Notes btw.

Concentrates from Vapour Depot and Nicotine from Dark Star Vapours

empvap.com do all their liquids as concentrates if you want a nice easy shake and vape. Also sell 50ml 7.2% Nic 50 PG and 50 VG. Nice to have flavours you can just shake and run with.

Flavourings and Nic - Vapable. I tend to get the Nic from here as it's where I buy all my concentrates and it's just easier to add it to my orders there. PG/VG - Classikool, Amazon
As for bottles and mixing syringes I just pick them up anywhere if I need a few I just add them onto orders, or if I need a lot I use VampireVape.

I think people have named all the main places.

  • Nictone - http://piratesvape.uk/ or http://www.darkstarvapour.co.uk/

  • Concentrates (All the places people have mentioned but I mainly use FA concentrate so order direct.) http://www.flavourart.co.uk/

  • Scales Amazon or Ebay. Make sure it has as minimum 100g/0.01g decimal accuracy

  • Supplies Ampulla, ibottles, theplasticbottlescompany (but their 30ml HDPE bottles oval have been oos for sometime now). I mix by weight now so have no need for funnels, syringes, measuring cylinders. I just use a 28mm nozzle cap and squeeze everything into the sample bottle.

You can get everything from vapable as they are a good one stop shop for all your needs.

Nic and a few flavours from Darkstar and my main flavours from VapeMate

VG/PG and bottles are pretty cheap from lubrisolve. Think they are slightly cheaper than darkstar when accounting for postage.

Use them a lot for capella and have all been spot on with timely shipping.

For nicotine I use http://www.vapersemporium.co.uk/gb/nicotine-base/29-pg-72mg-72-nicotine-base-.html

Never had an issue with their nic either and delivered in good time as well.

I don't understand why more of you guys aren't using "the ecig shop " . There gallons of pg and vg are top notch and prices piss all over the other suppliers even with postage factored in . They are cheapest for cap and tfa also and I ain't had any quality issues with there nic which can be hit an miss from other uk suppliers . I an not affiliated , just a happy customer btw !

So for now i just got everything from DarkStar. Enough supplies for 600ml of 65vg at 10mg.

Just going to keep it real simple, i went with 60ml (10%) of banana cream flavouring . Ill look into more recipes if i want to continue. Im sure i will, i just spend £25 for a total of 600ml finished product. I hate myself for not looking into this sooner.

I have 5-6 30ml glass bottles with pipettes left over from previous juices, so now to get some scales and i think im good to go!

I buy mixed flavors from vampirevape but looking into making my own soon as it would be cheaper in the long run just researching at the moment

Chefs vapour/vapable for concentrates.

Cheers for this post I'm looking for new suppliers since chefs vapour let me down.

I already use darkstar for vg/pg and nicotine but their range of flavours isn't great. I really just want someone with a large enough selection so I can bulk order from place and save delivery. I'll check out vapour depot as I've already seen the others and I'm weighing up where to put my money next.
