DIY Help with question: E-liquid nicotine considerably large difference than non DIY

So here's my question. I just got my supplies and made a juice of about 40/60 going heavier on the VG with a sweetner of 10ml total going for about 18 or 1.8 nicotine. The calculator shows like 1.68 cc/ml to accomplish this. Took 2 vapes and man did I have a flash back to the first time I ever tried skoal. My head was spinning and another vape I'm sure I would of got sick. Double checked the calculator, surfed the internet and everything seems up and up. I normally vape 18 (1.8) and 24 (2.4).

So the next day I make another juice and cut my nicotine in half expecting it to be at 10 or 1. Dead on to what I am used too. So why was my first batch so strong. Is it the sweetner or VG or I take it I've been getting less nicotine or not as strong as they say it is at the store and I'm dealing with false advertisement. I'm hoping with my first batch that is too strong I used a 15 ml bottle and only made 10ml and will cut it with 5 ml of PG making it closer to a 50/50 and dropping the Nicotine level from 20 to around 14 (figuring I'm adding a 1/3 more fluid).

Has anyone else notice DIY that you actually use less nicotine than what you would versus buying a regular bottle made by a company.with nicotine?
