I'm all about the NFL draft right now and I'm having fun looking at draft related media, but I just got a package of liquid in and I wanted to explain how I get it ready while it is fresh in my mind. I don't make my own fluid. You can do that by buying all the ingredients if you want. There are sites for nicotine, flavoring, PG and VG that you can use. It's not all that complicated but it is time consuming and messy, and you'll have to play around with a lot to get what you want. But I don't do that. Here is what I do:

Start with a high nic fluid with a strong flavor at 100% PG. I used a 135 milliliter bottle of Honey Flue Cured from http://www.mister-e-liquid.com/ for $45, and I selected 24 mgs of nicotine and no VG when I ordered it. Shipping is free if your order is over 50 bucks, so I also ordered a 10 ml bottle of Rough Neck at 24 mgs nic and no VG for $5.75 because I hadn't tried it yet. That brought my total to $50.75 out the door.

I also purchased a 177 milliliter bottle of USP VG from a local drug store. Prices for this vary, but if you look around and grab the larger bottles you can get all of the VG you need to do this for about five bucks.

OK, so all you do is mix the juice you buy online with the VG that you buy in a store. I'll break it down in steps to make it easier to understand. Your juice is starting at 24 mgs nic and 100% PG. If you mix it in even amounts with your VG, you now have juice that is 12 mgs nic and 50%PG-50%PG. That's a pretty good spot for people who don't sub ohm. Now do it again: If you mix that with VG, you now have juice that is 6 mgs nic and 75%VG-25%PG. That just happens to be a great spot for sub ohm vaping.

I am sub ohm vaping at about 67 Watts and my set up blows through the juice. But I just basically spent $50 on 540 milliliters of 6 nic 75/25 fluid. That's less then 10 cents a ml. You know those cool looking glass bottles with the built in dropper lids you see at vape shops? I just made one for three bucks. I actually use one of those little bottles to mix my stuff in and do it by eye. I had gotten my nic down pretty low for a while but I started getting crazy urges to smoke and stepped my nic level back up again, so this juice is really doing it for me. Tastes like a really nice cigar.
