    36MG Nic in sub ohm? What tank and coil?


    Arctic sub ohm ... if I remember correctly, i think I was using the 0.2 ohm coil and had the airflow wide open. Not only that but I took a deep direct lung hit........... I learned real quick to back off the nicotine :w00t:

    just wondering because I'm new to vaping and I'm gonna start dripping soon. I've heard that I shouldn't use 50/50 juices with dripping

    I certainly do not recommend it. Yes, you can vape 70vg/30/pg when dripping however it is best to us MaxVG blends for dripping or any other subohm application. Keep the nic level 6mg or less also......

    No Debate or Argument from Me as I have neither the time nor the desire to engage anyone in inane irrelevant Futility Exercises.

    However, since the OP asked and All Opinions and Experiences are equally as Valid and Invalid as another;
    I drip/RDA and load my RTA's with both 50/50 & 70/30 mixes in both 18 & 16mg Nic on both Variable and Mech Mods depending on what I choose to "flip my switch" at the time. Dripping Mech Sauce Blue Tentacle in 70/30 18 Nic on a 13/9 RDA & Hollowpoint Mech in between typing with my Index Fingers :shock:
    Oh the depths of Hedonism and Reckless Protocol Abandonment some stoop to ;)
    Doesn't make it Right or Wrong, Good or Bad, Suggested or Not.
    Just what "works" for me and has been for over 2 years. Your Opinions and Mileage may vary and that's Cool too.
    Ain't no Cookie-Cutter "One-Size Fits All correct Answer. Depends solely on Device/Rig being used and Personal Preference :thumbs:

    So (to actually answer the OP's Question), Can You? Absolutely!
    Do/Should you Want/Need/Desire to? That's up to the Individual to decide for themselves.

    All the best to you.
    Enjoy & Vape-On!

    One more question though. I have a nautilus mini and a 20 watt eleaf istick for when I'm at work. I want to know if I should turn my wattage down when I use 50/50 juices? I use around 13 watts for my 50/50 juices and they taste pretty good. But I also have a 70/30 juice and I don't want to burn my coil. Would I be ok going up to 14 for higher VG juices?

    After looking around a bit for info on the Aspire Mini Nautilus it appears that for a 1.8 ohm BVC coil around 13 watts is good. Because you put a thicker juice into the tank does not mean you need to run hotter. Consider that the thicker your juice is the harder it is for the juice to flow into your coil. If you turn up the wattage to a point where it's vaporizing juice faster than juice is fed into the coil, you're gonna start getting burnt/dry hits. If you are worried about burning coils you keep the wattage lower, not higher, but, you could be giving up the flavor you enjoy by doing so. You have obviously found your sweet spot and any change just might not be what you want to do. Keep your wattage where it is and lower with 70/30 only if need be......

    The nic level isn't auto of, oh your dripping now you have to go to this. Many things factor into it, such as how often you vape, how much throat hit you want, and what you use.

    I don't subohm so for me it doesn't matter if I am dripping or running juice in a tank, I use 12 mg, a friend of mine uses 18. The difference is I chain vape and he doesn't, he also likes lots of throat hit when he vapes.

    Neither one of us goes below 1.5 ohm, tho I prefer cisco attys ( I do have and use some rda's) and he only uses rda's. He also does high wattage vaping.
