    Question E-juice nicotine is too high


    Hi, I have a question:
    I got a Mint Hi juice and I found that the nicotine is too high for me.
    I am wondering if I can dilute with water.

    If not, how can I make it lighter?

    Anyone knows?

    try and get a hold of some pg or glycerol birdmix, glycerol should be easy enough to find. you wont find pg on its own easily but it will be the main ingredient in some food flavourings.

    You mean the skin protectant glycerin? I have one that I got from parmacy, this looks very sticky...
    Is it okay to mix?

    Depends what type you have and what ingredients are in it.
    You can water it down some, and it wont lower the amount of smoke a lot, some, but not alot.
    Vegetable glycerine is nice and sweet. You can get food grade that can be taken internally, not all can be, most are external only. I dont know exactly the difference, but i like to use food grade, since its going inside.
    I found this locally at a Hobarts health food store, but this will show what i mean.
    NOW VITAMINS - GLYCERINE VEGETABLE 16 FL OZ

    Propylene Glycol is made from regular oil and not veggy oil, but it comes in food grade as well, it is just harder to find. Ebay has some from time to time, and you can find some on the net, but i dont have a distributor bookmarked.

    As long as you keep the water to 10% or less you should be fine. you will have to remember to shake the juice each time, it may seperate some. Add a little of one of those, if its not right, add more

    Thank you, this is an important information for me as well.

    How about alcohol? I read about adding some, but what percentage is safe for the atomizer? And, as it normally contains 60% water, it is probably not possible to add water AND alcohol, is it?

    purified water will be less harmful to the atomizer. The minerals in tap water will leave a crud behind. Look for reverse osmosis, deionized water in a jug (r.o.d.i).
