Sometimes I slip my husband 6mg juice because it tastes better and less harsh and he doesn't seem to notice...
That's how we got my dad to quit.

He requested not knowing when he went down in nic after panicking during his first nic drop.

He chain vaped, spilled juice, broke equipment, ran out in the middle of the country.

And then he didn't know until it was too late... easy peezy...

Male... vaping 6 years, started at 24 and still at 24, but only vape about 5 ml per day mtl on rebuildable rta's at 20 ish watts. Tried sucking air on sub ohm tanks to lower nic and blow clouds but thought it was silly, it wasn't for me. Also tried lowering nic and once I got under 18, no TH so will stay at 24 until the end.

I'm just glad you're still around.

As long as I've known you, you've been OlderNDirt.

I'm thrilled to still be here. I feel like Steve McQueen in Papillon, floating away on his bundle of coconuts....."I'm still here, you :censored:!" :D

just a thought... if one is going to pay X amount of money for 6nic and the price is the same for 36nic ( same flavor same size)... why not get your monies worth? ;)

If/when I buy store-bought I always get double strength and dilute 100% with plain to get the nic and flavour where I want it.
Then vape twice as much. hahaha

this is really interesting, and will be glad to see results. But I think a lot likely also has to do with what kind of smokes each person smoked. I mean ultra lights, lights, full flavor etc. and how much

Imma girl :D I always smoked full flavor for 36+ years. I started when I was 12, that was in 75. By the time I was 17 1980 I was smoking 1.5 ppd. I quite May 24, 2012

Tried 24mg and absolutely couldn't vape it due to the peppery flavor. Started getting all my stuff from another company and the closest they had under 24 was 17 mg I stayed off the cigs, but struggled badly for 8 months with cravings. I finally decided to try the 24 mg from that company and it was fine! As soon as I went back to the 24mg the cravings went away.

Exactly the same here on what I smoked, when I started, age within 1 year . The only time I tasted that so called peppery flavor was the first and only time I tried diy, I mixed it, but maybe didn't mix it good enough. I then proceeded to shake the bottle for like 5 minutes and it was gone. But yes, at 24 it really has never crossed my mind to reduce nic except briefly trying sub ohm tanks. I think if your vaping with the notion of giving up vaping, then reducing nic is a great idea, but I will be vaping till the end and see no reason to reduce. I didn't think nic in a cigarette was all that bad compared to the other chemicals and sure don't think nic in vaping is anything to worry about compared to what I was doing before vaping. I certainly would think it's strange for someone who smoked for years and years and never really worried about anything to start vaping and all of a sudden think they have to reduce nic . But it doesn't matter, whatever it takes, the main thing is to keep off those smokes what ever way possible.

Male. Middle aged. Multi decade multi PAD smoker. Full flavored met hols the last 30 years of that.

Can't stand high nic and honestly the bottom line is I won't vape it. Also can't vape much PG, it makes me cough non stop. PG also tastes disgusting. VG has very little taste but is almost slightly sweet. Plain PG tastes like sweaty socks buried under a chicken coup. Take a little taste next time your DIYing.

When I smoked I took that smoke as deep into my lungs as I could. This is why smokers get lung cancer and chewers get mouth cancer. I smoked so much if you had seen me you would have thought I was on fire. Then I started vaping and those cute little ttole puffs just couldn't get the nicotine in me so I had to use high nic, 24mg, and still was a half step ahead of smoking again.

Along comes subohming and finally I get that lung filling satisfaction and direct nicotine injection.

I like 3-6 now days. Couple times a week I do have to use a Kayfun 5. Use 12mg in that and have to hit it pretty much non stop to get any nic out of it. Switch back to some power ASAP. Couple mighty whacks on some power with 3mg and I'm good for hours.

My personal feeling is that vaping is a more efficient delivery system because of how easy it is to get Nic sick. Remember when you first got caught smoking and were forced to smoke a whole carton until you got sick? (JOKE)
My dad made my brother and I chew bull of the woods tobacco and smoke a big ole stinking cigar at the same time. My bro turned green before me lol. Those were the days! :lol::lol:

I received a 60ML bottle of Zero myself recently and after vaping the Bake Sale wit Zero in the morning I immediately vaped enough to add the nicotine. The minor amount of nicotine to make the 3MG I use did not dilute the flavor and I think it actually made it better. Mix up a small batch with your preferred nicotine level as a test.
