I just ordered my first e-cig (a 510) but I'm worried I got e-juice that's too strong.

I currently only smoke half a pack a day (maybe a little more) of Marlboro Lights. The juice I ordered was dekang 18mg in various flavors.

Is this going to be too strong for me? I saw that it came in 11mg, 18mg, and 24mg strengths so I figured the 18mg would be somewhat light/ in the middle. But some things I read say 18mg is a high dose.

You should be fine, I would say haul on it for 5-6 pulls and if you feel good then smoke a bit more, don't go crazy on it because it's new (like I did) you will end up with a crazy headache and a heart pumping out of your chest. Try not to vape more than you smoke.

it might be a little strong for a half a pack a day lights smoker...I was a pack a day full flavor smoker and started off in a range of 18 and 24 and some 12..my needs change through the day...but everyone is different..
If you find it is too strong for you you can always add some PG or VG to what you have to weaken it's strength...PG you can usually get at a pharmacy counter in a CVS or walgreens type place..they'll probably have to order it for you...VG you can get at Walmart as Glycerine USP (the USP is key) made by humco..

I smoked half a pack a day, and 12mg is plenty for me. I do chain-vape for a while each day, though, more than I smoked (I switch down to 0-8mg for that). If you're looking for something you can just occasionally drag on, 18mg might do it for you. I'd try 11-12mg, just to find the lowest level that keeps the cravings away for you.
