Stronger MG juice? or is it normal to puff and puff and puff.....

[maf2k8]

Hey all! Ok so here my problem. I have been off analogs for almost 2 months now. I started off with your basic 510 ecig. The next week into vaping i got a prodigy and also a silver bullet.

Now, my Prodigy is 5volts and my SB can be either 3.7 or 6 volts.

I notice that after about 1 week of vaping and as time goes on, i am puffing and puffing and puffing NON STOP! I mean i have no complaints, but i never put my prodigy or SB down really.

I have always used 11mg of juice since day 1. I use to smoke 1 to 1 1/2 packs of cigs a day.

Should i up my Nicotine level on the juice to maybe 36mg or so? i know your suppose to go DOWN in MG, but is the reason why i am puffing all day long due to the 11mg juice?

I just dont want to purchase 36mg of juice and end up STILL puffing like a maniac and have triple the nicotine flowing thru me, ya know?

Is a higher nic level more satisfying? ( compare to say smoke a ultra light analog to a full flavor one ) is the taste the exact same?

any feedback would be great, thanks!

Yes, more will let some ppl put it down - ymmv. Before you go to 36mg, try around 18 or 24. Or maybe pick up some 36/48/60mg unflavored, and add a bit of it to your 11mg until you feel its satisfying, and find your sweet spot for when you need a bit more.

I don't believe in a single number. I use 0mg, 6-12mg, and 12-18mg (with the occasional 24 or 30mg) throughout the day. Each amount has its purpose for me, and that has done well for controlling my cravings.

I don't know about others, but I don't consciously feel "I have now inhaled enough nicotine. I will put down my PV for a while." It's more "am I in a situation where I can vape? Great, I'll have some puffs."

I have an hour commute and I tend to chain vape my 808 the whole time to and from work. I keep two of them and go back and forth every few puffs. I am using 11mg and 24mg..I don't really notice any difference, either in taste, throat hit or how much I vape.

If you feel line you're vaping too much, slow down! If you feel fine, don't worry about it. Personally, no matter how much I vape, I feel so much better than when I was smoking cigarettes.

You're only "supposed" to go down in strength if you're trying to quit nicotine. Personally, I'm happy to just be a tar-free nicotine fiend.

I smoked about 30 unfiltered cigarettes a day (last one was Sept. 27), and 36mg makes me woozy after a puff or two. Try 18mg or 24mg first, or have some plain PG or VG on hand to cut it in case you (like me) find that it's just too much to vape on a regular basis.

I vape almost constantly too but I think it's because I love the feel and taste of the vapor. Has nothing to do with nicotine. I make my own juice and some is no nic some is 12mg nic and some is 24 nic.

Can't put these damn things down..........I love em....

I was a full flavor menthol analogue smoker so initially I bought 36mg... And let me tell you, it does the trick... If you went to that you would definitely sit it down. I use the 36mg (menthol)when Im out and about just to curb my nicotine monkeys and 18mg or 24mg when im just sitting at home enjoying a tasty flavor.

Yeppers i Vape 24 mg and have no intention of going down in strength anytime soon. My strategy has been anytime i want an analog take a puff or two off the vape if that means i pick it up every 15-30 min for a puff or two its a small price to pay imo

That and vaping kicks a lot of a$$

This is a the common sense approach SLDS.

maf2k8, I only have my own anecdotal experience to offer but for me, if I vape under 36mg for much more than 48 hrs I get REALLY ugly!

For sure, get some 36mg unflavored, PG or VG for cutting, some flavoring and find your level. Folks maintain w/o problem at any nicotine level you want to call out, every one of us has different needs.

DIY juice forum has the answers to any questions you will have regarding cutting and mixing.

mine was a 20 a day habit and i jumped straight into vaping at 36mg and i find i hit it hard for about 15-20 mins and then i have to put it down as the nic starts making me feel a bit woozy i put it down for maybe an hour then hit it again im happy with that as it sort of resembles my analogue habit. you just have to experiment and find a routine that works for you everybody does it differently i think.

Three packs a day of ultralites. I've got 24mg all the way down to very low mg. (I mix mine to low mg.

My opinion...you can get use to 'any' level over a period of time. (I puff and puff sometimes, other days it was like smoking regulars--once or twice an hour).
