Default Ahh...36 mg

I've been vaping 24mg Vanilla for almost a week now. I figured this would be strong enough, but very often it doesn't give a strong enough throat hit. I read that the amount of nicotine can directly correlate to throat hit on this forum, so I ordered more juice, but higher nicotine. From the first drag, a very nice, powerful throat hit. I don't think I'll be vaping 36 all day, but man, what a difference! My BIGGEST criteria has been the throat hit, not flavor. A few questions:
  • Does higher nicotine liquid make the taste more subtle?

  • Has anyone noticed that a sip of pop after a drag boosts a sort of aftertaste of the flavor (or is it just me?), especially on already sweet vapes?

  • All my juices (different suppliers) are very, very subtle. I don't mind this, as I'm not in it for the flavor. Just wondering if this is a 510 thing rather than a juice thing as I suspect?

P.S.: I am loving this Red Bull. I didn't think I would, but based on some posts here I went ahead and got some.

lol. What do you call it? Did you know "Midland Speech" (Great Lakes/Ohio/Illinois, etc area) is considered the most proper form of speech in the U.S. and that's also why in movies and everybody talks like that?

These are kinda cool. Two dialect quizzes:

Are You A Rebel or A Yankee?

The Advanced Yankee-Rebel Test

There is a better, really comprehensive one out there that I did years ago online, but I can't remember what it was, but it covered things like "wash vs warsh" "car vs caah", etc.
==============

I thought I smoked a fairly strong brand (Marlboro Red 100s) and I smoked 1.5 packs a day, but I figured when 24mg was being called "high" that that was right for me. Apparently, I need even higher nic than that. I get a great throat hit EVERY TIME, unless the juice is running out of course. I'm so happy that I'm getting a good, nice "exactly how I want it" vape every time I take a drag.

I was taking drags non-stop on 24 mg and topping off every 5 drags. With the 36 mg, I can leave my PV alone for a little while because I'm more satisfied. Yay. Its hard to find suppliers with 36 though, so maybe I should stock up on flavors in 36 mg before they all stop selling them. I was able to quit on 24 mg, but 36 mg is obviously what I need in order to satisfy me.

Default ahhh 45 mg!

I was a pack+ a day smoker. First 3 months I was chain vaping 24mg. I tried 36mg, and I was actually able to put my chuck down here and there. I now vape 45mg, and I can put it down for 30 minutes no problem, or I can vape like I used to smoke, and be good for an hour or so. Vaping 45mg straight is not recommended, but it works for me.

From what I have been told, and from what i have found, is that the higher in nic content you go, the more bitter it gets, since nic is a very bitter flavor. I either just deal with it, or add a little loranns to it to boost the flavor. I do not put much more than a few drops per 30ml bottle, so I am not affecting the overall mg rating more than 1mg, if that. But it does seem to do the trick.

I have a range from 8-48. Depending on the nic freak out episode it is 48 and a heavy nic snus at the same time.

Where do you get 48 nic? I don't need higher. Just curious. I didn't think anyone sold higher than 36 unless its unflavored DIY stuff. Raven - good tip about the flavoring. Thanks.

I've got 20-48 and use it depending on what I need.. Myfreedomsmokes has 48... The higher the nic though, the worse it tastes, at least to me. The 48 kind of stings my mouth.

I'm on 18/24 mg at the moment (one week in) and am thinking about 36 mg vanilla for my next order. Funny thing, I used to occasionally smoke slightly sweet cigarillos but never liked the sweet taste ... but vanilla vape is niiice ...
