How low a level nic concentrate could you use?

There's been many attacks by anti-vaping groups, and the pending FDA regulations. The recent "deeming nicotine / e-cigs to be tobacco products could drastically reduce the availability of pre-mixed e-liquid, and the availability of high mg/mL nicotine concentrate. (check it out...FDA Regulations)

If the regulations are passed what level of concentrate would be acceptable for you?

I'm not trying to be daft, but I'm not sure if I understand the question. Are you asking how low of a nic mg could we personally go down to and be content?

 

[Wingsfan0310]

I'm vaping between 12-15mg/ml now. Once in awhile I'll go as high as 18mg/ml, but only when I'm vaping some of my older juices that I haven't finished yet.

Cheers,
Steve

Just that most DIY'ers use a high mg/mL concentrate 60-100 mg usually. How low a level of the concentrate would make DIY unviable for you. Could you DIY if the maximum level for bottled e-liquid was 24 mg, or even worse 12 mg?

I'll worry about it when the time comes. If it happens, I'll just ween down to 0 nic. I'm at 12 mg right now.

I know what you mean, my NET hardly needs any nic now. Kinda rough on the newly minted vapers though.

 

[Roger_Lafayette]

I vape my nic unflavored whenever I feel as if I want some.

90% of the vaping I do is 0%, that way I can vape as much as I want w/o any effects.

BTW Stosh, I keep hearing about those FDA things. Do people think they're going to be a serious prob? I thought we were just going to have to pay a little more for e-liquid?

 

[wllmc]

I vape 6 have have been as low as 3 with no problems.

 

[Wingsfan0310]

Ok, now I get it. I use100mg/ml but could probably use as low as 24mg/ml and still add flavor and or DW and be at 18mg/ml or lower (12-15mg/ml).

Cheers,
Steve

Are you worried that if regulations get so stringent we'd only be allowed to purchase nic at 12mg?

I have a few broken down liters of 100mg, so I'm set for quite some time. By the time I actually use all my stored nic, I'll be using a much lower level. I still go between 12-24mg,but if it wasn't available anymore, I'd vape 0 mg and use patches. Lol

 

[AmandaD]

I'm down to 6mg and could probably go lower. I'd like to say I could go to 0, but I really don't want to risk 'needing' a cigarette and being tempted....(I guess I should give 0 nic a try!)

It would be really annoying if the cost of buying nic was equivalent to buying analogs!

It may get easily that low, and possibly much more expensive. I could easily get by, and have a couple liters in storage already.

The deeming regulations being proposed by the FDA could restrict any and all bottles of e-liquid, only pre-filled cartos allowed sealed to prevent re-filling, tamper proof.

I can see this devastating the New Members forum, starting with crap and nothing in their freezers.

Are you solely referring to a ban on e-liquid but not nicotine?

Haven't bought pre-made since the beginning.

Why am I so confused.

 

[JulesXsmokr]

I'd like to see it stay at 100mg.
Since it's always refrigerated, it's pretty thick and at 100mg. I don't have to use much during the mixing process, so it's faster for me at higher concentrations.

 

[Bernard Marx]

I did 0mg for a week after stabilizing on 6mg for a few months and found there was a real difference between the two. A little nic isn't too bad but no nic is pretty irritating.

 

[HeadInClouds]

If I had no stash, I'd buy anything down to 20mg/ml. I buy 100, just because it takes less space in the freezer and shipping costs are lower. I mix my base at 18-24, depending on my mood. I need to either vape less or cut it to 12-18 though.

They can't really ban PG or VG or food flavoring, the nicotine concentrate on the other hand.....
restrictions on high mg concentrate is almost a given. The ANTZ are spreading the "nicotine is super-deadly poison" meme....read through the thread...http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/fda-regulations/560897-could-fda-really-regulate-e-liquid.html

That's confusing

first you asked about nicotine concentrate
then you say bottled eliquid.


maybe you're meaning 'no more nicotine concentrate'?
because 24mg wouldn't be considered concentrate would it?

Sorry, "bottled e-liquid" = any flavored OR unflavored nicotine in PG/VG, any strength....if it's allowed it may be at a very low mg concentration.

 

[edyle]

Maybe they will be able to restrict concentrated nicotine sales from online purchase so you'll only be able to get it in a pharmacy if they sell it.
