Sub-Ohm nic levels?

[Rourke]

Like a lot of us I recently started sub-ohming and I learned pretty quickly that I needed to cut down the nic level. I was vaping 12 mg 50/50 in both sized nautilus, but now with my Sub-tank mini and nano I am down to 6 mg. Just curious how much others have reduced their nic levels when they sub-ohm?

I sub ohm on RDAs with 12mg nic. That is generally considered high. But, I vape like you might smoke a cigar. I inhale a little to get a good throat hit and the rest of the vapor is just there for flavor. Seems most people vape 3mg.

Wasn't necessarily a sub-ohm thing for me; personally. It was more efficient delivery. Started at 24mg and cig-a-likes and am currently at 3mg squonking on a REO.

subtank 3mg... sometimes 6mg

4mg of my unflavored nic base. 6mg if I buy e-juice. I can vape 12 in my subtank mini, I just don't prefer to.

Its not just about sub ohming, but how much more volume of vapor you intake. Much higher volume of vapor, the more nic you will intake per cubic inch. Thus there is less need for high Nic juice to get same Nic ml dosage.

6 on a subtank @ .6Ω

Yep, used to do 24, but once I got my Subtank I went down to 6. No complaints

Normally people say to cut your nic in half when you start sub ohming. I however, have found an amazing loophole.

Every day I would vape a full tank on my nautilus mini. 12mg. When I got home from work or when hanging out with my wife, or cousin, I would chain vape.

But now, with my subtank mini at .5, I'm still at 12mg. But I found out that since I get more vapor I don't feel the need to chain vape. Just a few deep inhales every now and then and this 4ml tank will last me 4 days. So I'm actually saving juice AND producing nice vapor.

It's a win/win

I don't go crazy sub-ohm. Right now my lowest setup is at 0.27 ohms. I'm usually around 0-6 mg/ml when I crank the power or run under 0.5 ohms.

I'd be more aware of wattage then resistance.
Since I use RTAs at around 30W I cant stand anything stronger then 3mg.
Way too much throat hit and the nic doesnt exactly taste all that good either.

Im still doing 36.... a bit harsh sometimes but Im not smoking

 

[charlzrocks]

I am on 12mg for my ego and protank setups but had to drop to 6mg for my Atlantis and drippers....it's just too much at once otherwise.

I vape 15mg on my 3 Nautilus tanks, so when I got my first sub ohm tank (subtank mini), I filled her up. That didn't work out so well as it burned my throat something fierce. So I got some 6mg juice and all is well. And for me 6mg sub ohm is about the same as my tootle puffing at 15mg nicotine wise.

I sub ohm with 12mg 50/50 juice in my atlantis on a kbox 40watt at 25/30 watts. But I was a pack a day smoker with 3 bowls of hookah also.

I started on 24mg,now its 6mg in everything,(RTA & RDA)

I vape 12 in all my regular tanks, and I vape 3mg for sub ohm. When I started on sub ohm, vaped 8 and also 6mg. I was getting the jitters, it was too much. I was also chain vaping a bit too much so that was definitely contributing to it. 3mg is a comfortable level for me, for sub ohm.

3 and 1.5 is what I vape. I'm gradually making my way to zero.

The jitters is a good way to describe to much nic, I understand what you mean, I had it when I switch to the Starre tank, had to drop to 3mg and it's much better now.

I was using 12 in my nautilaus mini at about 8 watts just bought the kanger sub tank mini and am using 8 mg with the 0.5 ohm coil at 18 .5 watts the vape is hotter than I am use to I have the airflow wide open and the juice is tasty perhaps I need to use the 1.2 ohm for a cooler vape I did have to switch out the drip tip though for plastic the metal was too hot
