I blame you all! I just ordered enough Nic to last 2 years! Possibly longer lol

And enough containers to split it down into a workable size. Damn shipping on One Liter Amber bottles, is almost as much as the bottles :/

$30 for a dozen (minimum order)
$20 shipping :/

I only bought a liter of 100mg/ml. But I want to split it down into 4 bottles @ 25mg/ml I can't buy just 4 bottles that cheap. So I have 12 now. I'll use the other 8 as I reduce the Nic per batch. Maybe.

Ohhhh ok. You're reducing it down... never mind me :D

A legit question though :)

The bottle only gets opened 2 times. When reducing, then again when mixing. I generally do a liter at a time, unless I'm working on a sample. I have a small 240ml bottle for sample work. Same Nic supplier.

Buy more nic and VG then, simple! You've got empty bottles!:D

I bought 10 liters of VG/PG also lol

I'm prepared for everyone else to die in the apocalypse. I just want to make sure me and the family don't kill each other over Nic.

We just wrapped up preparing for the Apocalypse... erm... possible winter power outages.
--1.5 liters of unflavored 70/30 in the fridge.
--Eneloop batteries, ecig batteries, LED flashlights and battery chargers.
--We each have a car-jumper battery with DC/AC out.
--Camp stove and butane/propane. Because... food.

I really need to step up to at least 100mg/ml. My nic level for DIY juice is still too low... 36mg/ml. But for a $100 / 250ml bottle, my yield was 3 liters. With the retail juice I was buying back in the day, that $100 would have lasted me less than 3 weeks.

Holy hell! Where are you? I get 100mg/ml for $65. It's only $50 in the plastic bottle.

I could easily go through a $100 or more, in a single week at my peak usage. So DIY was a must for me. I've cut back enormously. But still DIY

Let me know where you buy it and I'll switch companies. Finding cheaper DIY juice is one of the reasons I joined VU.

2nd reason: I need to learn DIY repair... my IPV 2S died and I don't want to buy a retail replacement.
3rd reason: I hate my Kanger Subtank Mini and need to step up on my RTA education.
4th reason: I just moved to the sticks, which means I have no more face-to-face support/retail stores.

I'll fill out my profile page right now, so you know where I'm at knowledge-wise.

Humbly,
lh

I get my Nic from MyFreedomSmokes. I've seen several say it's not the best. But it suits me.

I bought a round of VG & PG there also this time. To prevent paying separate freight from another company.

Brown glass bottles, from Uline. Always dependable :)

Now, all this may change in the next year. Based on best guess, unless I get some help. I have enough to last 3 years lol

My flavors came from 3 sources this time. I'm trying to determine which supplier I want to go with. So far, I'm not impressed with one that comes highly recommended here. Communication is slow, and so is the method of shipping.

Thanks. That will kick-start my search.
Keeping with the topic of the thread... For my s/o, I have some 12 mg/ml and flavoring stashed away in case she runs out right when a bad snow storm hits... I mean... right when the zombies arrive.

I don't know about NET techniques, but... just like making your own distilled alcohol, it's perfectly legal to grow your own tobacco. Many people do, though not for extract I presume.

Y'all know that right?

I've actually considered getting some seed. Assuming it does grow from a seed. You never know what tomorrow will bring.
