cutting down on 24mg without losing thoat hit

[jackie38]

hi anyone know how i can cut down on my nic without losing throat hit any anwers would be great thanks jackie x

Try using a higher PG ratio, it helps with the TH. but, nothing is really going to give you the same feeling as nicotine will (throat hit wise) ;l
maybe try a minty flavor too?

The Halo menthol ice flavor has so much throat hit, I can't even inhale it. Maybe try that.

Some places sell capsicum that should help with TH. This isn't the site I was looking for but may be a start. Capsicum HEAT by Flavor West - ecigExpress You just add a tad for TH.

Drip or rba

vaping capsicum is probably the worst idea I've ever heard.

IMO nothing replaces the nicotine throat hit, increasing vapor density and heat will help.
Some folks have luck with TH additives such as Qhit, heat, flash, diablo loco, capsaicin.
Cinnamon, mints, menthol can increase TH.

You are suppose to add a tiny bit to your juice, not vape straight capsicum.

 

[Gowanus]

food safe doesn't mean it's lung safe. no amount of capsicum should get vaped IMO. That's just asking for trouble.

 

[FlamingoTutu]

I guess you know best.

I just cut down from 20mg/ml to 16mg/ml and I went up on the wattage to make the smoke denser, it helped. I also take longer and slower draws. I vaped 24mg/ml for over two years and loved it. The only reason I am trying to cut the nic is because I feel that we may face juice shortages, when BT wins and we are only able to buy VUSE(awful) ecigs.

I'm not claiming to be an expert in anything, but I see so many simple misconceptions floating around this forum regarding things that are food safe therefore must be just fine for vaping, and it seems like a great way for misconceptions to turn into defacto standards. As a new comer to the forum, it just seems like people are so defensive of this thing they love, that they don't allow others to point out a negative or a misconception.

I went from 18mg to 12mg just by getting a Kayfun.. The 18 was just too harsh, and with airflow on the KF, lower nic still worked great (and now has real flavor). I just made my first batches of DIY and did em all at 12 and could've probably done 10.. I bought what Vapers Tek calls "throat hit" nicotine to try to balance it.. Apparently its treated with oxygen to give it a bit of a kick (its also half the price of the 'normal' nic)..

 

[Rizzyking]

Rebuildables would allow you to get what you want but some people can find the whole area intimidating I only bought cheap kayfun clones most of the time just being happy all the parts turned up so not sure on what the authentic might include in their packaging that might help you. My Lemo tank came with everything you need to get started and carry me a couple of weeks and the instructions were really good and simple to help me ease into it. Other then that I've got nothing else helpful to suggest wish you luck .

Sorry, didn’t get to finish and that shouldn’t have been posted by itself. Been chaos here today. You are correct, sort of. Flavors used in vaping are (the credible ones) food safe, but not all food safe flavors are vape safe. There are some people running around here claiming vaping is 100% safe and that the vapor is just water vaper. Those are usually new vapers that haven’t learned the intricacies of it yet and likely have taken some abuse from friends/family about their vaping. At the other extreme are people claiming that vaping is probably worse for you than smoking and that they personally know someone who had come down with pneumonia or worse from vaping.

What people are mostly concerned about right now is diacetyl, acetoin and acetyl propionyl. Two threads, there are tons of them;

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...s-may-contain-diacetyl-there-really-many.html
Why are people defensive about vaping? The FDA, state and local governments. Take a look here FDA Regulations and here Legislation News Once you’ve skimmed those you might understand why people get a little defensive at an offhand remark that vaping such and such doesn't seem like a good idea.

Everybody should look up what they are vaping and determine if they believe it is safe as it can be for them. Most of us just want to stay off cigarettes and research so far indicates vaping is much, much safer than smoking.

Im stepping down from 18 to 12 to 6 and I found that lowering the ohms of my coils (RM2 on my Reo) did the trick. Youll use more juice but you should still have some decent throat hit.

if you cut the nicotine in half, but double the juice, are you really cutting anything?

You are getting 50% less nicotine. Nicotine is a vascular constrictor. But it also depends on how efficient your delivery system is.

 

[proudrookie]

I've been dripping 6mg on my RDA and I'm loving it. My setup gives me a warm vape and good vapor, I can't even vape any higher amount of nic. But I'm still vaping 36mg on my ego setups in order to get the throat hit (more like a throat punch) that I want.

Use a rebuildable atomiser.
Big difference for me from a nautilus tank to a rebuildable.
If not for you then more volts / watts , higher pg even some clearomisers deliver better than others,
