How many mg of nic do you vape daily?

[AndriaD]

Maybe, but in looking at the numbers I've seen, folks that vape smaller amounts of eliquid (translates to lower power) use higher nic, and folks that vape large amounds of eliquid (translates to higher power) use lower nic, and the nic totals seem to come out in the same ranges

Probably true, on nic usage; it does concern me somewhat that people are vaping a great deal more, inhaling a great deal more vapor, to get the same amount of nic. Once I figured out the right nic level for me, I haven't had any side effects from the nic at all, but a good many, none of them pleasant, from the PG/VG. I've personally not had any ill effect from flavors, but the potential for that would also increase, as the amount of vapor increases.

I think I'm in the same boat as you, Andria, and thinking about increasing my PG/VG ratio even more from 70/30, maybe try 85/15 like you said you were using at one time. VG tends to to make me wheezy, if i do an NJOY or something thats pretty much pure PG, no issues. But vaping a lot of PG is too drying, so I stick with high nic and 3-4ml a day juice, mostly unflavored at 18 mg , but another tank with qa mix of unflavored and 1/3 NET, or a few drops of WTA.

Yeah about the most variation I can tolerate on the PG/VG is between 84% and 85% PG. Especially in the winter, I do get the drying of the PG in my sinuses, and though in summer the 85% is tolerable, when added to the effect of the furnace, I start to get stuff like nosebleeds -- so I'll use 84% PG for a week or two, then start to notice more problems with my chest, and go back to 85%. Not much comfort zone.
