Simple question hopefully (for those that are good at maths)

yeah, that sounds right ...... I have 4 nic shots sat here, so the 2ml I take out of each of them I can put in another bottle and make 5x10ml bottles from one 10ml bottle of concentrate.

The way I'm looking at it is

Forget the PG as that doesn't matter, what I'm doing is removing a 5th of the VG content overall ... right?

70 divided by 5 is 14 ... 70 - 14 =56 ... so there's 56% VG left?

I'm not sure about that. If you remove 2ml out of 10ml you're removing 20% of a 70/30 nic mix ... you're not only removing the VG part. The 8ml is still 70/30 isn't it?

@Ment! @cindy99

not when I put 2ml of PG based concentrate back in!

essentially I am just removing the VG, the PG is just what else is in there, it's irrelevant.

maybe my maths isn't as bad as I thought it was.

The answer is indeed 14.4mg nic, 55.8/44.2 VG/PG

I *think* I get it now. I knew sitting at the back of maths class reading Dickens would come back to bit me on the arse

I understand all of it and none of it [emoji1]

think of it like this...

if you have a pile of tenners and a pile of fivers .... and I take a load of your tenners and replace them with fivers you ain't gonna have the same amount of money .....

The answer is indeed 14.4mg nic, 55.8/44.2 VG/PG

cheers bud .... now I just need to decide which to try.

@Ment! @cindy99

Sorry, only just saw the tag...

@simong you're taking out 20% of your nic base and replacing it with PG so you have 80% of the original VG and nic:

80% of 70% is 56% VG
80% of 18mg is 14.4mg nic
