thanks for all the great replies folks!! I didnt even think about premixing the flavors as well as the nic/base. Will have to remember that one after I make my next batch. my current mix is a simple peppermint/menthol blend that uses 5drops menthol, 15 drops peppermint for a 10ml bottle. could just make up a batch of premixed flavor base as well and just mix the two together quick and easy.

Hello everyone, I was sitting here thinking (yeah I know, dangerous)and got to wondering something I wanted to put out there to our resident mixologists. When buying you unflavored nic juice and such, it is cheaper to buy in high nic per milligram than lower , but this increases the caution you should use when handling it. However I was thinking say you buy your *** in pg 60 mg/ml and take your pg or pg/vg base mix and mix up a pre dilluted base at say 15 mg/ml in larger quantity. This does two things. 1. you reduce the danger of having high nic level juice sitting around as a poison hazard for children and pets. 2. you dont have to take the time now to mix your nic juice and base together. All you should have to do is measure out the amount of pre mixed unflavored juice and then add the flavors you desire for recipes you already have cooked up. Of course you wouldnt want to use this for flavor testing, but for final mixing with nic this should be a great time saver. You could also have different mixes for say pure PG, PG/VG mix, Menthol , etc. Just add the flavors you want and vape. Any thoughts?

Ok Making up my mind on the type I am looking to shoot for here. I think for my first mod I am going to go with a box mod type. 18650 battery 510 connector possibly a juicebox style as well. Things I could use some help with. Where to find a battery box for 18650 batteries that will work for a mod, as well as suggestions for reliable good quality protected 18650's

Nothing to really be afraid of with the mixing. You can do your tasting without nicotine. Mix up the base and flavors to get the taste you are looking for then mix in the nicotine liquid at the end if you want. no sense in wasting nicotine during the testing phase of mixing . When it comes to mixing, just work in a clean area , have paper towels for spills and wear rubber gloves (or other material if you are allergic to latex) and have fun. The nicotine juice is the only thing you really have to worry about as far as anything dangerous and if you wear gloves and are careful it is perfectly safe to handle. I do suggest that all children and pets be kept away from the supplies especially while mixing however. I constantly have to shoo the cats away from my mixing area when I am putting together a new batch.

Yup, My usual vape is VT Mentha so was looking for something similar in strength to that. Probably going to order some cinnamon flavor to mix with it when I get my VG to add to the mix and see about making some mint/cinnamon juice.

Well a few days on the peppermint menthol and all is going well except for this. Very little vapor on my ego even with an LR Atty. I think I need to add between 10 to 20% VG to the mix to improve things a bit. flavor ise though it is nice and minty. Here is the ejuice me up numbers. Nicotine eJuice 3.75 ml 75 drops 37.5 % of total PG 100% 4.25ml 85 Drops 42.5 % of total Peppermint Flavor 1.5 ml 30 drops 15 % of total Menthol Flavor 0.5 ml 10 drops 5 % of total

wow thanks Mark!! will do, might pop into chat at some point to pick your brain a bit hehe.

Hello everyone. Looking to take crack at making my own mod to vape with and need a little help sourcing the atomizer connector. I am wanting to use the 510 connector type unless someone out there has a better suggestion. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I picked up my kit with 2 each of Menthol, Wintergreen, Peppermint,and Spearmint flavors. So far I have mixd up the peppermint in a really strong mix, going to see about toning it down a bit. I also want to pick up some cinnamon flavor as well. I have been putting off getting into DIY until now due to a relocation but now I have moved and can start setting up my little juice kitchen and get to mixing.

I just got my order from on stop DIY shop and mixed up a batch of 10 mL's of peppermint/menthol as my first attempt and it is great, lots of menthol the way I like it and a great peppermint flavor too. Nice and cool with a good mint. Going to tweak things over time till I get it right the way I want it. Those of you thinking about DIY juice , go for it. It is really easy. just get yourself a good juice app to double chck your amounts and go.

Glad you are loving the eGo. I love mine. I highly suggest getting the 900 maH batteries and maybe even the case for it as well. makes for a very handy way to carry everything you need for it as well as a couple bottles of juice on the go. I never leave home without mine now and love having a total of three complete eGo's with me in case of emergencies. I can fit a total of 7 atty's 2 bottles of juice and two eGo batteries with cones in my case. (I take the caps off the atty's to fit more in there) , as well as the fast charger just in case I want to recharge the battery when one finally goes dry. A good solid 24 hours of vaping on the go.

I talked to a freind of mine last week about my new eGo and told him how much I loved it. I explained about PV's and howmch better I felt since making the switch etc.etc. Well I get a call out of the blue yesterday from him telling me he just received his eGo kit and how much he already loves it, and how his Marlboro's already taste like crap. lol. Chalk one up for the PV movement. Another convert!! I figured a tiny bit of good news amongst all the doom and gloom of the FDA debacle would be a nice change of pace for everyone.

I thought about that until I realized something about the PCC's out there. They all more or less work like using one air tank to fill another. You never really get a full charge out of a charging cycle, all you really do is equalize the charge between the two batteries each time you use the PCC, with each consecutive recharge the PCC has less overall juice to give to the battery it is charging. I dont know if this would effect the batteries over time and reduce thier capacity or not but not really sure if it is worth the risk at 20 dollar a pop for batteries.

That's the thing, it only happens with one battery and it hasnt happened again since that one time which is why I was asking if the charger has some sort of circuit that discharges the battery or something, it has worked fine since the first time. Only one cycle mind you . I have been using the battery all day today in fact.

I have a couple of LR attys inbound right now to try out along with the larger battery. I was thinking of checking out the 510 cartos. The ones specifically for the eGo just taste off to me for some reason. I really prefer the taste of direct drip to cartys or cartos to be honest, much better flavor and just feels better.
