Alcohol will dry you out. Think about when you have a hangover.....the hangover is caused by your brain being dehydrated from the alcohol. Hot drinks are ok as are juices. A trick I've learned, I don't like just straight water either, a few slices of lemon in the glass helps give the water a bit of flavor.

Jackie...

You bought an e-cig that looks like a cigarette, didn't you?

You won't be overdosing, not unless you are using something *insane* like 2-3 cartomiser (cartridge) refills per day.

Do you know E-Lites in the UK? They use 24mg liquid. They claim to do 300 puffs (or something). Whether they do or not is kind of pointless in understanding e-cigs. Each refill (before it runs out) will give the user about half a pack in terms of nicotine (after you've vaped it) regardless if you get 200 puffs or 300 puffs.

This is the big LIE of some e-cigs. The amount of nicotine BEFORE you vape it is NOT the nicotine your body will get.

It is much more responsible for an e-cig company NOT to pretend the product does "x" amount of cigarettes.

I used the 24mg E-Lites. I went from smoking 15 a day to vaping 30 times, 10-15 puffs at a time. I was still getting nicotine withdrawal.

It was also therefore costing me three times as much as roll ups, and I was grumpy, emotional.. constantly in a bad mood.

We have brands like Nicolites and 10 Motives in the UK. They use 16mg liquid. We pretty much have proved now that ONE refill is approximately 6-7 cigarettes in nicotine.

24mg and was smoking 25 cigs a day for 32 years

I smoked one to 2 packaday for 3 decades; started vaping last year August and mostly vaped 0 nic but had an occasional puff on a 24mg cuban cigar liquid; I'd leave the 24mg at home, and my vape during the day at work was just 0 nic.


Nowadays I vape I guess 6 mg; (I buy 24mg 100PG and add 3:1 glycerin; and I'd buy 0 nic if it were cheaper; still haven't found a local source for PG)

So if you're vaping 24mg alot, I'd be thinking it's too much nicotine.
I'd say keep some 24mg in one tank for when you feel a craving and try to use a lower strength as your main vape. kinda like smoking lights most times, but keeping a few full strength cigs for certain times.
