Different Brand Different Nicotine?

[BobbyDidge]

So I bought dekang 24mg and liked it but it was a little to powerful for me so I would dilute it with VG to 18mg till I got some more. I ended up getting 18mg from another brand and the nicotine seems to not even compare to the dekang. I feel with the new stuff that's 18mgs gives me no nicotine feel. Are some companies, say, 18mg really equivalent to other brands idk lets say 12mg? Is that possible cause the new stuff really feel like there's no nicotine in them :/. Am I going to have to right a journal on what company does what! Oh if I buy from x seller use 24 mg if I buy from y seller use 36 mg? Seems unfair and confusing . Help please
THANKS!

Bobby, Some People add extras to the liquid to get more of a feel than just nicotine, some add a pepper,caffine, or other fairly inert adders to give it a different kick. Pg straight tends to be fairly harsh while Vg straight tends to be fairly mellow. So combining the two bases differently can lead to all together different results, even without the adders that tend to add a bit of "oomph" on their own. Good Luck. Happy vaping.

Most reputable juice companies are pretty accurate with their nicotine content listings. Like Iusedtoanalog says, there is more to the "feel" than just the amount of nicotine.

I'd suggest sticking to one strength at a time and just try different vendors and flavors until you find the one you like. Don't keep changing strength in a quest for the perfect vape. You'll drive yourself nuts. When, and if, you decide to change nic strength, stick to the same vendor and flavors that tasted good before.

The important thing is what the nicotine does, not what it feels like on the way down.

That's what I mean some of the brands I feel I am not even getting my nicotine fix. As if there's not even nicotine in it! Lol
