is this a good starter kit

[stuartd]

going to try and make my own juice and was wondering is this a good kit to start of with

DIY Mixing Kit

i know all need some flavouring`s and other stuff but don`t want to waste time and money if its not going tobe any good and i have loads of 10 ml bottle so wont need any of them i think it will be mainly syrengies

I went for this one after a recommendation from another ape Make Your Own E-Liquid – Bronze Bundle | Everything Liquid
Customer service was first class and it was on my doorstep quick sharp

It looks ok if you want a one stop shop to get you started and dip your toe in the water. If I were going to criticise it I would say the syringes are too big. For making 10ml and 5ml testers 1ml and 3ml syringes are a far more useful size. You don't really need a 10ml syringe unless you are making your eliquid 50ml at a time, and using large syringes to make small testers is very inaccurate. My second comment is with regards to the Nicotine which is in VG rather than PG and I am led to believe this has a shorter shelf life.

My shopping list for a starter kit would be something like this:
50ml 72mg Nicotine in PG
50ml PG
100ml VG
3 x 1ml syringe
2 x 3ml syringe
1 x 5ml syringe
2 x 28g drawing needle
Powder-free gloves (2 pairs)
A few 30ml empty bottles for larger batches.
Flavourings

Starter kits are never good value, the problem is the extra postage sourcing from different places.

If you can leave out the bottles (I hope you've kept a few empties), you can get the rest but with 100ml of nicotine for about the same price from Chef's Vapour or Just Vape.

thanks for the info guys and yes i have loads of empty 10 ml bottles probably about 40 so don`t really need anymore of them right now but i would get some 30 or 50 ml bottles sometime soon and all check that bronze setup tomorrow like i said i dont want to waste time and money on the wrong stuff

You get 250 ml Nic, 3 concentrates and 500ml pg and vg in the bronze, seemed like a better deal.

that`s what i was thinking as one of my mates uses vampire vape nic and its bit dearer so to buy just the nic it would cost the same as the whole kit from that e-l place

I ordered it first thing in the morning, he phoned me at about 11 to let me know he was out of capella custard and would I like a different concentrate (you get 3) very friendly and helpful (i was in tesco at the time) delivery was on my doorstep the next morning, well worth it as a starter imho, I'll shop around for individual stuff as supplies run low but I'll definitely order more from him.

That is the kit I started with and bought a few extra concentrates and as said is great for starting out to see if it is for you,

Even tho I started my adventure into mixing with a starter kit and found it good I wouldn't recommend doing it as price wise it just doesn't make sense

For example I bought this one Gold DIY E-Liquid Mixing Kit


Yet I could go here Vape Flavour Concentrates & Mixing Liquids | Just Vape 247 And buy more of everything I needed for about the same plus spend over a certain amount and get some free concentrates too

So starter kits are good in some ways and bad in others as with everything it's your preference
