Been experimenting today trying to figure out the damned breaker panel for my Apt.



Ya think for being there since 1971 that someone would have marked the damned breakers beyond just "kitchen" "lights", "heat", etc.


I'm trying to shut off the LR heaters which are dual 8-foot baseboards and wreck my 'leccy bill for nothing since I don't live in the living room. The thermostat doesn't actually turn off...below around 50F it'll come on whether I want it to or not.

There are also two 60x70" windows in there. They don't have curtains but just plastic blinds I'd hung blankets over, plus a cathedral ceiling going to the angled roof about 25' up. Eesh...

Old pre-move-in pics:




I finally got it figured out though. :D

Now, I can have heat in my BR and the Bathroom, both of which are very small baseboards, while leaving the $$$ sucking monsters in the LR un-powered. There is enough heat from the Apt. under mine to keep things from freezing.

Also, between me, the cat and a huge tower computer with 3 HDD's and a big video card, keeping the 15x20' BR warm is not a problem. ;)

No more $200 electric bills this year!


Yea, electric heat is pricey. In my last place the water was electric, the room heat was old style radiators fired by a scary looking boiler in the basement. The freaking electric bill was more than the gas by 2X!

Yeah that's an app I tried to use, so friggen confusing lol
I guess I'll just do like 1 part 50/50 to 3 parts VG. Might be overkill but I am FINALLY getting my skin to calm down, I'm not taking any chances.
I know this doesn't help you now, but you can get a high vg, zero nic mix from nicoticket. You just mix that with a regular flavor for a higher vg mix without losing flavor.

I did that for 2 of the flavors I wanted that had the option. :)
2 I wanted didn't have the option.

But still makes those other 2 only 25/75. So I've added some more VG. :p

Can anyone help please?

I have some juices coming today from Nicoticket that are 50/50 PG/VG
I got a big bottle of VG in the mail yesterday because I've got a PG intolerance and I need to make my stuff way higher VG.

If I take 1 part 50/50 and mix with plain VG, that makes it like 25/75 I think?

I suck at maths.

How can I figure out an easy measurement to get it closer to like 90VG?

I tried a couple ejuice calculator apps and they are waaaaaay too confusing.
two parts VG to one part 50/50 would make around 12.5/87.5 but you'd also lose alot of your flavor
