Is 0 nicotine Vape Safe?
0 nicotine vape, like shortfills, are still made with PG and VG (two major components of an e-liquid). They do not contain nicotine, but since they are 'shortfilled,' there is enough room for you to add nicotine shots.
How Do I Calculate the Final Nicotine Strength of My Shortfill?
To calculate your final nicotine strength, consider both the shortfill size and the nicotine shot strength. Here's a simple guide:
50ml Shortfill + 10ml 18mg shot = 3mg strength
100ml Shortfill + 2x 10ml 18mg shots = 3mg strength
200ml Shortfill + 4x 10ml 18mg shots = 3mg strength
Note: These calculations assume using 18mg/ml nicotine shots. Always check the specific mixing guidelines provided with your shortfill.
You can use MIST's shortfill calculator.
Do I Need to Shake My Shortfill After Adding Nicotine?
Yes, it's essential to shake your shortfill thoroughly after adding nicotine shots. Shake the bottle vigorously for at least 30 seconds to ensure:
- Even distribution of nicotine
- Proper mixing of flavourings
- Consistent PG/VG ratio throughout
- Best possible flavour
- Uniform nicotine strength in every puff
