Buying high strength nicotine (UK)

submitted about 8 years ago by Twizlutz

I recently bought some nicotine from http://www.cig-eliquid.co.uk and it has arrived but smells awful. An awfully strong chemical, musky smell and it’s a slightly pink colour. When I mixed it (after a good shake) with vg/pg and flavourings @ 2mg it is making my heart pound like mad and it’s extremely harsh.

Where can I get high nicotine base from UK that is of high quality?

I get mine from DarkStar Vapour. Last one i got was a little yellow, so i mailed them and they said it's probably ok, but if i wanted to they'd replace it no problem. And they did. Really good company.

I can't remember exactly (it was a few months since i ordered) but they were pretty quick iirc. Both in sending it originally and replacing the new bottle.

Second this after having problems with darkstar nic I got just before tpd. Darkstar even sent a replacement but it smelt bad and had a bad colour.

Nicotine72mg came clear and no smell I could pick up.

Weird they only have 72mg nic.. I get that's their name but that's such a weird number

I've been doing DIY for about 18 months now, and every batch of nic I've bought has been 72mg/ml.

think its related to uk laws, 75mg is the max you can distribute, they use 72mg just incase its out a little

Thinking about ordering 100ml from these guys to try to make my own juice. Do I need the PG or VG version? Also seems like the only sell it in 100ml bottles?

They may be sold out of other sizes as they're greyed out in the drop down menu.

I'd recommend going for VG Nic so you have more flexibility for flavour percentages as concentrates tend to come in PG!

> flexibility

When is this important ? Sorry new to DIY, just read somewhere that PG Nic was easier to mix.

72mg is the max legal amount allowed to be sold in uk.
