I think this is more of a case of learning curve for the user than it is âan extra 0.1 ml in the tip/needle.â Those that havenât used syringes before really need to treat it as any other aspect of DIY such as nicotine. Primarily: with due homework being done, and respect for the implements/chemicals involved.
There is no extra IF youâre using the syringes properly. The following statement is where most probably go wrong (at least IMO):
âTry taking a dry syringe and inserting in liquid and drawing it up (without getting any air).â
If you treat it like nurses (or other trained medical personnel) do -or having done the homework on proper use of them, youâd find that most schools of thought recommend upon removing the syringe from the package, the first thing you should do is pull the plunger back to the amount of (in our case) flavoring that you intend to extract from the vial, then insert the needle into the bottle.
The process in a normal environment would be to then (assuming the bottle is in an upside down position) âpush the airâ from the syringe into the bottle (thus making way for the balance of pressure when you go to draw out the fluid) then withdraw the same amount of liquid as the amount of air that you added. Otherwise, if you start with the plunger âdownâ (meaning at the â0â mark) youâll end up having to deal with negative pressure inside the bottle, and are quite likely to induce air bubbles into the measured portion from behind the plunger due to the vacuum inside being stronger than the plunger is equipped to handle.
Everyoneâs seen movies/tv where the medical tech âflips the needleâ with a fingertip to pull air to the top (nearest the needle tip, while itâs pointing skyward)âŚitâs the same thing here. Purge the air once, and youâll almost never have to do it again IF you do like I do, and keep one needle/syringe per liquid.
With pics (for those speaking other language):
I know Iâm one of the few that prefers this method of measuring (especially here on these forums). But thereâs absolutely no extra or less left in the needle/tip if used properly!! Whateverâs in the needle/tip will remain there until next time, unless it wasnât properly evacuated previously, or the syringe plunger has started to degrade (fails to maintain normal pressure/seal).
@BoDarc: I donât mean any of this personally, I just took exception with the inaccuracy of the information that you read!
EDIT: The other aspect that is equally important (I knew that I forgot something) is which portion of the plunger to use as your point of measure!!
Just as you would see in a very small vial (receptacle) -the liquid is actually concave, and thatâs why the tip of the plunger is shaped that way!
You have to use the âlowest partâ of the plunger section that touches the syringe wall (in a âneedle downâ position) to measure by, not the section below it thatâs concave!!

Iâve been scared to do that for one simple reason: The urge to start smoking again might be increased (speaking strictly for myself, not âin generalâ). Damned cigâs still smell way too good when I have folks that havenât quit yet nearby⌠><

I get that completely and a great point that some should consider.I know some people never buy anything but a tobacco based e-juice because they are afraid they will vape more if they switched to a desert type vape.
I also can see a tobacco based liquid filling the need for those that prefer the taste of tobacco and canât quit the stinkies for that reason.

AbsoLUTEly!!!
If I was a betting man, Iâd think that the oneâs that replicate/simulate the flavor of smoking would actually work better for folks wanting to quit to start with! (Flavor is usually why thereâs such brand loyalty!)
The fact that we get âflavor choicesâ is just a (major) bonus in my book! 
Either way though, Iâd still be âall overâ vaping if the only choice was âtobacco flavoredâ -as long as there was menthol! lol
(Ironically, Iâd probably have never kept smoking all those years ago if it wasnât for damned menthol.) ><
Multi-edits: UGH!! Typical. I go from one post thatâs very coherent and easy to read to the next that reads like it came from someone that can barely communicate. ><

I was the same way , long story short I quit for a year when I smoking regular lights. Then had a few drinks one night and bummed a couple of mentholâs from my date and stayed with them for over 20 years until family showed me the power of the vape!

nods Same deal.
Reds = 1 pack
Lights = 2-3 months
Menthol = decades.
sigh Glad those days are over!

What do you make with all the Black Cherry?
Thanks hommie. Thatâs alot of work and I think it proved my point instead of disproved. I am always open to critique, so offense never taken. There are some major differences in the aforementioned article and what we do here.
#1 needles. Medical use is like a 1/4 micro needle like youâd see for insulin injection, but weâre using large 14/16ga blunt tip needles that arenât used for injections (and I use a longer 1 1/2" [much larger!] needle so I can reach the bottom of the bottle with my shorty 1ml syringe). The only syringe I use is a 1ml for nic measuring so I see the variance much more easily.
#2 source. I have a 30 ml bottle I refill with my nic for convenince, but medical use are rubber sealed bottle you can turn upside down and poke the needle through (why you need to pump air into before drawing dosage). I canât turn my 30 ml bottle upside and once I have drawn liquid into syringe I cannot turn the syringe upside down and shoot out the air bubble (without shooting out a spray if toxic nic!)
I also immediately rinse and run through USB so thereâs never anything left âin the needle for next timeâ and then I shoot out any water by pumping the syringe a couple times (post wash). In my experience the fatty needles we use and the inability to correct for air are all fixed in these Medical directions and the smaller injection-type needles used for Humans (animals too).
The test is simple. Take a fresh syringe and long blunt tip needle âŚwith the plunger all the way depressed âŚwith needle submerged âŚdraw the plunger .5 ml (halfway). There will be an air gap. I just measure from the PLUNGER level and not the liquid meniscus reading, because I have moved the plunger .5ml even though the liquid may only be at .4x âŚthe rest I must assume in in the tip/needle. I also pump any remaining nic a couple times with a couple dry draw/pumps
Unlike a rubber sealed bottle there is no vacuum to interfere with my draw âŚso as long as I am sure I didnât draw in any air, I am assuming pulling the plunger from 0 to .5 draws .5 ml of liquid even if the liquid level is not immediately visible @ .5 ml âŚand the air I do see is from the needle/tip which is now filled with that same volume.
You could do like a nurse and shoot all that back into the bottle and redraw and maybe get less air, but I think pumping the syringe in/out would contaminate my nic with anything that was in the syringe (silicone lube and tiny bit of water?)
If I was doing multiple bottles with nic I would subsequently get less/no air with this technique and would rely on the syringe .5 ml mark as there was no air bubble to drive that first draw and the variance would still be remaining in the needle, but I cannot do what TV nurses do which is turn the syringe upside down, thwack it with their finger and shoot out the air (and some nic!)
I am regularly wrong

From how your describing your format of measuring nic (I use a scale ) it would seem that even if you were off in your measurements the amount you would be off would be so small it wouldnât even be considered as being off. Even with a scale, I am probably off by .005 one way or the other, I wouldnât be too worried about 5 thousandths of a gram.
@CallMeTut Tut? problem solved
[[hugginâ it out]] Oh look! Someone got something in Vape mail!
âŚor not. Iâm not getting my Nictine River shipment till tomorrow :sad_face:
I got my scale last week dunno if I put it up on here (??) no I did not
