24mg to 18mg

[danibanani]

Hello again, folks!

I feel like I'm asking a million questions, so I apologize if I'm flooding the message boards.

The first e-cig I bought was the vuse from Camel. Then I started reading up more about it and I didn't want to support the big tobacco industry. So, I went for the gusto and ordered a silver bullet from altsmoke.com. I love, love, love it.

I started with Black Diamond juice (24mg). It was horrible, but I didn't have another coil, so I ordered more coils along with different types of juices and I'm currently smoking chocolate (18mg) from goodejuice.

I'm not getting that "throat hit", so I'm inhaling a lot deeper and I'm vaping on it more so than I did the black diamond juice. Is this typical when going down on nicotine levels? If so, what's the average time for a vaper to compensate and get used to the drop in nicotine?

Or, does the chocolate not provide that "throat hit" that I enjoy?

Thanks for any helpful hints or advice, you guys are so smart and I'm learning so much from this forum!
Dani

I'm not a big throat hit junkie but it took me about a week to settle down after going from 18 to 12mg. I didn't really notice any difference going from 12 to 6 or 6 to 3.

Throat hit, to my knowledge comes from higher nicotine and a hotter vape...as in more watts and PG. Also, some toppers have larger airflow and a wider drip tip so that a bigger draw is possible for a good lung hit.

Reading one of your other posts, I see you are only 2 weeks in. Congrats BTW. It could be that your new juice has a higher percentage of VG, hence less throat hit. It could be the lower nic level too, but less likely as 18mg is still pretty high. Just so you know, chocolate flavors will gunk up your coils pretty fast, so have replacements on hand. Keep getting your vape on!! One more thing, drink LOTS of water, vaping will dehydrate you.

PG, Nicotine, higher volts and lower ohms, can all add to throat hit.

I have also found, that for myself... sweeter juices tend to have less throat hit.
