Concerning Nicotine levels.

[JB Goode]

I hope I compose this the right way. I'd like to find out if a higher nicotine level will help in quitting the desire to smoke analogs . Example---I smoked ultra lights cig--was satisfied. I used to smoke the same brand lights but needed to go to ultras. Bronckial problems. I recently got 6 mg juice because it said it was comperable to ultra lights--didn't get that same relaxed feeling that analogs gave. So, if I get a higher level of nic, will it calm down the cravings the same way a cig did? I like this particular place that I got the 6mg from, the reason being is that it was the same kind I used to smoke ( Parliment), but their next level up is 16mgs ( same Parliment). I'm also asking because I really don't care for the loads of flavored juices out there. They just don't agree with my taste buds. I have 3 new bottles of flavored juice. Tried each one once and they're on my shelf. I'm 1/2 way down on my present 6 mg bottle and need to order more. I 'm just trying to find out how to get that after smoking feeling that I got from cigs
I hope this way clear enough.
Thanks

I would order a higher level, because you not actually getting what it says it is being vaporized as it burns , but yes once you get the right strength for you you will be completley satisfied good luck and keep up the good work

Hi,
16 mgs is still relatively low. It might not calm you exactly like a cig would, but it might help considerably, with cravings. I was going through much too much juice, so I am about to go higher nic, From 24 to 30ish, (starting tomorrow actually, postman willing! lol!). You may want to check out the PIF group...There you could swap juices you don't care for, with ones you want to try!

Thanks very much. I'm was really lost about what to do. I really thought I was doing the right thing before. It wasn't the company's fault. It was my choice but it was the wrong choice. I guess I just didn't know about strengths of nicotine. This is especially a problem because I'm not trying to stop vaping. Never had any intention to stop vaping. I enjoy vaping. Well anyway, thanks.

Just like taste, nicotine level is an important factor in the success of quitting, Having found a flavor you like, I would try the 16mg. If it is not high enough, you can go up. I have been very happy with 18mg, & I smoked regular menthol. But it is different for everyone.

Best wishes!

Vaping is significantly less effcient than smoking in getting nicotine into your system. That is why the most common level vaped from polls on various sites is 24mg. Many vape 36mg strength. I would suggest trying 24mg in order to make the transition and move up or down based on personal experience.

I was thinking that too wv. I think op just wanted to use this one vendor only, not sure if they sell the 24. I would encourage JB to try other places for juice as well.

If the company has 6 mg and 16 you could try mixing the two levels together to get a higher mg level then what you are currently using but a lower level then the 16.

I used to smoke ultra-lights too, close to 2 PAD. I've found 18mg to be perfect for when I'm at home (vaping a lot more) and 24mg for while I'm at work and not able to vape constantly.

I'd suggest you get a couple different strengths until you figure out what works for you. You'll know when it's too much, you will get a bit nauseous. And you can always do what DeeLeeKay suggested, mix a higher strength with a lower to knock it down a bit.

Vaping will not give that after a cigarette feel as there is no carbon monoxide reaction which makes you feel relaxed (tired really.) Strong mg of nic juice will give you the headrush though. Combined with a good flavor you like, that can be satisfying enough.
