Does 0 Nic TH Exist?

[JasonInTN]

Howdy folks. Thanks to all the participants of this great forum. Been lurking here for several weeks. Was a PAD smoker for 43 years. Quit cold turkey five months ago. A heart attack and three stents will do that for you. I still crave the analogs but am determined to do without them and the nicotine.

Six weeks ago one of my friends let me try his disposable Square brand e-cig. WOW...one hit and I was in love. Great tobacco taste with cherry overtones, a manual battery with lots of vapor, and a throat hit that rivals an analog. The following week mom bought me a disposable Blu at the local Walgreens. That was pleasant. Even though it was an automatic battery, I found it to provide decent vapor, fine taste with a mild coffee flavor, and a good TH. A couple puffs a day and that lasted me two weeks before the battery quit. I tore it apart and found the carto to be quite moist still.

Two weeks ago I decide to get something rechargeable and purchased a single Cig2o with a USB charger. That is the most common brand available in this relatively small middle Tennessee town. I do my two puffs a day and a few days into that one I buy some 0 nicotine tobacco flavored Kr808d-1 format Cig2o cartos. The taste was foul and there was absolutely no TH. What a disappointment. Three puffs into that carto and the battery ran down. The battery would not charge so I returned the Cig2o PV for a refund. I know PG contributes to TH but don't know how much if any PG are in Cig2o 0 nic cartos.

I know I will probably need to get an eGo style PV and some Boge cartos if I continue, but if I can't get TH without nicotine I probably won't bother. I'm kinda poor so I really don't want to purchase a bunch of hardware and liquids if I won't be satisfied. So....for all you 0 nic vapers...does 0 nic TH exist?

Yes. I've got some Green Label Herbal e-liquid, manufactured by ELiquid4U ® - ELIQUID4U E-Liquid 30ml Eliquid 36mg £9.99 *FreePost (UK) NEW LOW PRICE.. Will make you cough, guaranteed. I did a review on this stuff some time ago:

ETA: don't let the text of the first link mislead you: you can find the 0 mg there as well.

This is interesting. Any vendor in North America carrying this juice?

Some places also carry something you can add to get TH without nic, I can't rememebr what thread I saw it in, but someone should chime in soon. I have an Ego passthrough, love it and you can get it for $16.99 here:

eGo 510 650mAh USB Passthrough Battery.

No extras, just the eGo and the cord, so make sure you get cartos and juice. It actually has a battery, so you can vape while it's charging, then unplug and still vape. The boge's are highly recommended here, I use smoktech dual coils myself. I'm what I call semi-retired, so I'm in the not much $$ either, so I DIY my juices, saves a bundle, and it's not too difficult. Just ask about it if you're interested and you'll get a lot of help there. There's also a DIY section in here you can check out and post to after you get 5 posts, and wait an hour.

Good Luck

I wonder if this Herbal liquid is menthol-tasting. Only menthol without nic provides that TH, for me, anyway. I also wonder what other e-liquid concoction gives TH without nic added. (I you live in Canada you'd be interested as I am.) Or could we at least know what exactly is in this Herbal e-liquid?

Hmm... not a lot are interested in zero nic with TH, eh?

I guess it's not easy to give up uncle Nick. He's too addictive to part with.

Last bump.

There is, but I don't think you're going to find it unfortunately. There are additives you can purchase, some people add vodka, but the nicotine is what makes the TH.

You'll get some good flavoring and taste with 0 nicotine, but I'm not sure about the TH. Try a small bottle of zero nic. and see. Maybe that'll be enough for you since you're already quit smoking. Backwoods Brew has some good tasting tobacco juices and you can get them with zero nicotine. Try a small bottle.

Flash may be the zero NIC liquid that was referred to earlier. It does provide some throat hit. Not exactly like nicotine, more like peppery, but throat hit none-the-less. A little bit of cinnamon flavoring will go a long way in this regard as well, but you have to like the cinnamon flavor. I have experimented with pepper, vodka and lemon juice and all provide some sensation. My best recommendation would be in agreement with swedishfish - try to get satisfaction from flavors instead of TH.

 

[dormouse]

Nicotine IS TH. It's a peppery irritating substance. PG lets it through best. Heat enhances it. VG dulls it.

Some flavors have their own throat sensation - mint, menthol, cinnamon, ginger, other spices, some liquor flavors

And there are some fake throat sensation additives - QHit by Flavourart, another kind at Vapornine, (black) Pepper eliquid and flavoring at FreedomSmokeUSA, and Totally Wicked has an extremely strong capsacin liquid (the hot of hot peppers)

I stumbled upon something that might help - I use an eGo-T and bought a low res atomizer from the classifieds. When I tried my normal 0 nic peppermint in it, there was so much throat hit I almost choked. Don't know if its a fluke or not as I'm still relatively new, but worth checking out - not too expensive...

Peppermint is menthol-tasting right, AutumnWolf? Menthol doesn't count. ;-) I get the TH with it without uncle Nick in the picture. But I have to have something that is non-menthol. Vaping too much menthol irritates the mouth and lungs over time. So the option is to vape like smoking an analog and not overdo it.

I'll be back and see what my options are. I definitely have to find ways to get nic somewhere without getting into trouble.

Appreciate the recommendation of the Green Label Herbal. I believe everything you say about it. ELiquid4U says on their website " Research has shown that eliquid containing nicotine does not enter the blood stream as it is water vapour." Wish I could believe that. Sure seems like nic makes me crave nic. Think maybe it's gotta get in the bloodstream to do that. Really enjoyed your You Tube review. Made me all jealous of all the fine vaping hardware you were demonstrating. Also liked what looked to be a digital piano in the background. I play piano myself and try to do it for a living.

Balth....that eGo passthrough does look like a nice way to go. I actually checked it out online last week based on some of your other posts. Lots of bang for the buck.

It looks to me like ELiquid4U offers Green Label Herbal in menthol and nonmenthol. Hadn't even considered the Canadian aspect of this subject when I posted it. I think you are totally correct about uncle Nick. I too thought this thread was slow to take off, but really pleased it has now.

 

[househippie]

I was just wondering the same thing and found this thread. Just got some flavor doublers to mix w/my 10mg (too strong) and at 50/50 it killed the TH and flavor. BUMMER. I had high hopes. Glad I saw this. Thanks.

 

[JasonInTN]

Being the OP I just want to acknowledge and thank swedishfish, cyberwolf, dormouse, AutumnWolf, and househippie for their input and great suggestions on this thread too. I attemped to string my last three posts together but was not too successful as you can see but it did get me to my first five posts.....yipeeee!. Now I can shop for a bargain on Classifieds and swaps.

Two weeks ago I decide to get something rechargeable and purchased a single Cig2o with a USB charger. That is the most common brand available in this relatively small middle Tennessee town. I do my two puffs a day and a few days into that one I buy some 0 nicotine tobacco flavored Kr808d-1 format Cig2o cartos. The taste was foul and there was absolutely no TH. What a disappointment. Three puffs into that carto and the battery ran down. The battery would not charge so I returned the Cig2o PV for a refund. I know PG contributes to TH but don't know how much if any PG are in Cig2o 0 nic cartos.

I did buy another single Cig2o PV today in town on a whim. Maybe it will become a backup....if it doesn't break down and get returned too. Got five unreturnable 0 nic cartos left over I'm hoping to use. Also bought some propylene glycol today. Thinking of topping off those cartos with that PG as I use them and see if any TH develops. Am looking forward to watching Macy's parade while vaping. Thanks again to all and have a great turkey day.

Good, true throat hit comes mainly from two things: nicotine strength and warmth of the vapor. Anything you add to eliquid to produce throat hit will not produce true, good throat hit. It might produce throat irritation which is NOT good throat hit. Maybe that is all you need and it will work for you. But if you could produce true, good thoat hit with 0 nicotine by adding something to the liquid, then we all would be using it. Good luck, anyway.
