Does higher wattage = stronger nicotine delivery?

I have noticed that when I turn my wattage up, I get a stronger nicotine buzz.

I would theorize that since the mg level is consistent, the buzz would also be consistent, but I have not experienced this to be the case.

Is it true that a higher wattage will give a stronger buzz, perhaps because of larger heat distribution? Or is it all in my mind?

Technical break down.

Baseline wattage - 8 watts on a 2ohm coil, we'll say a Nautilus tank, 18mg Nic juice = 18mg delivered per ml of juice 1 to 1 ratio
1 ohm coil at 16watts, 1/2 the resistance, 2x the watts = 2 to 1 ratio, 12mg juice = 24mg nic delivery
0.5 ohm coil at 32watts, 1/4 the resistance, 4x the watts = 4 to 1 ration, 6mg juice = 24mg nic delivery
0.25ohm coil at 64watts, 1/8 the resistance, 8x the watts = 8 to 1 ratio, 3mg = 24mg nic delivery

The MG maybe the same but what of the ML??

But I get what your saying. I get more nic buzz at higher power so the nic level has to go down.

I don't think you get as good absorption from low power. Last week I had to switch to high nic for awhile. I was drinking that stuff like tap water. My dayily intake of nic was prolly 2-3 times higher them what I need to stay of smokes and killing everyone around me. Higher nic just goes to waste.

I was pretty happy to find this out cause by using more efficient delivey systems I can use much less of nic which may be harder to get moving forward.

the nic pretty much stays the same concentration per volume.. but higher wattage allows for increased volume of vape ergo.. more nic overall increase...

kinda like saying you sip a couple of mouthfuls of beer ( low wattage) or guzzle a couple of cans ( high wattage) ... the alcohol is still the same percentage ..
