Vape-heads? Do You Vape?

I picked up some more juice from Nic Station on the way back from the hospital today, Juicy Peach, and more Blueberry Champagne. I got very tired of the Cuba flavored juice within a few days, so I didn't get anymore of that one. I hadn't planned to buy more from Nic Station, because their juice is 100% pg, but I was still waiting for my juice from Heather's Heavenly Vapes, and I was running alarmingly low on the Blueberry Champagne.

Alex, the groovy young man who works there, recommended mixing the Juicy Peach and Blueberry together, because that is his new favorite. So, I may try that over the weekend. He also gave me mega discounts (2 cartomizers for free, 1/2 off 2 new tanks, and 1/3 off of the Juicy Peach), because his boss was so pleased with him about the review I posted on Yelp, in which I spoke highly of Alex's great customer service skills.

When I got home, I logged on to USPS, and saw that my package from Heather's is out for delivery today! Damn! Going to the mall to get more juice was not what I wanted to do today, I was just not feeling up to it, and I could have avoided it! Oh well, now I have extra supplies.

As of today, 3 weeks free from Cigs!! YAY ME!!

First, congrats on 3 weeks!

If you do decide to mix the flavors, be sure to not try to do it in the carto or tank, if you have any old empty bottles around, clean one out with hot water if you haven't already, and mix it in there where you can properly blend the flavors. You can also do this in a ramekin or other small bowl or tea cup even. The bottle would be best though because then you'll be able to control the mix and have somewhere to keep the juice around

Congrats again, and have fun mixing up your flavors - blueberry and peach does sound pretty damn good, lol! If you find that fun, you might pick up a few flavor concentrates and add them to your current flavors (only takes a few drops to add a hint of flavor, and you don't necessarily want to overwhelm your base flavor). DIY is actually quite easy and you can get started pretty cheaply either getting supplies on your own or using a starter kit. Some come with a toolbox like container, assorted flavor bases of your choice, pg, vg and nicotine along with some gloves and pipettes, syringes, etc. - can't hurt to buy it that way if you're unsure what to get

The only thing about all PG juice is that although you get great throat hit, you don't get much vapor. If you don't care about that and you're doing fine with all pg, don't kick yourself over it. I know people that only do PG, some that only do VG and a lot of us are in the middle. I personally prefer 40/60 pg/vg as i adore big clouds of vapor. The owner of Lily's Liquids actually made me two custom all VG vapes for me when i had my tonsils out about 2 months ago - they were iced peach/strawberry (fuzzy berry tingle) and an iced melon/strawberry (melonberry frosty) so that i wouldn't have much throat hit and the cooling drops actually soothed my throat (who knew?).

As for the crossing orders - I've done that a few times. Placed an order somewhere because i was waiting forever (or impatiently) for one order to arrive - it's been especially bad over the chinese new year's 3 week holiday - so i order something else and then suddenly the older one is shipped out before the new one. At least you'll have plenty of juice!

GL with your continued vaping and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about DIY, mixing, or anything else

I wanted to clarify something I mentioned in another post about nicotine and safety. You should NEVER EVER attempt to vape anything over 36mg.

It's OK to use if you're working with nic and have your gloves on and are careful with it, but never vape anything above 36. I don't know many people that even vape that high, but there are a lot of people out there who do in the beginning, especially.

If you accidentally spill any liquid, especially 24mg and up, on yourself you want to make sure you wash the body part off that it's on (obviously eyes you may want to go to the ER) and/or remove any clothing it's spilled on.

If you *don't* wash off/remove clothing, the juice can act like a nic patch absorbing through the skin, then if you vape on top of it, it's just as dangerous as smoking with a patch on.

I know a lot more people vape 24mg (i do sometimes myself) don't freak out, or worse think i'm being overly cautious. As long as you handle something the way it should be, there's no harm, and it's quite easy to rinse off your fingers or whatever if you get a dribble on yourself.

The reason it's OK to vape 36mg and not want it on your skin, etc. is because tests/studies have shown that not all the nicotine is absorbed by the lungs. This was more a warning to the people using 36mg juice, or 36mg or higher nic in making new liquid.

This post wasn't meant to be a lecture or to scare people, mostly just being informative. As long as you don't let it soak in like lotion or drink it, you should have no issues, this was just a minor caution

Enjoy vaping, just treat it the way it should be treated, I know its easy to get complacent over time.

As i've said in other posts, if you want any additional info, please let me know
