The big number on a Based bottle is the strength you end up vaping. No maths. Pick it, pour it, shake it.

How to mix
If you can pour and shake, you can do this.
Pour
Open your flavour shot. Tip the whole Based shot in. The bottle has room left for it.
Shake
Cap it tight and shake hard for a full minute so the nicotine spreads evenly.
Settle
Give the bubbles a few minutes to clear. Then fill your pod or tank.

Good to know
What is a nic shot?
A small bottle of nicotine with no flavour. You pour it into a flavour shot, which is sold without nicotine and with space left in the bottle, to bring it up to strength.
Why are there two numbers on the bottle?
The big number is what you end up vaping. The small one underneath is what's inside the bottle before you mix. A 60mg 30ml shot makes 60ml at 30mg, so the big number says 30.
What do the Ice and Sweetener shots do?
They adjust a mix you've already made. Ice adds a cooling finish and Sweetener rounds off the flavour. Add a little, shake, taste, then decide if you want more.
Who can buy Based Labs?
Adults only. You must be 18 or older, and these products are meant for people who already smoke or vape.
- Keep every bottle locked away from children and pets.
- Wash it off straight away if you spill it on your skin.
- Store it cool, dark and tightly closed.
- Never vape a nic shot on its own. It is made to be mixed.
