:confused: I figure I'll ask in this forum as it somewhat relates. I've been vapin 24mg juice and find it weak. should I try 48mg as a regular juice to vape or is it too strong and made only for mixing?
very few vape and if they do it's a drop here or there.......36mg is quite strong if you vape heavy and should make your head spin easy enough

Don't worry about it too much, soon the 48mg stocks will be sold out and you can no longer get it. Shame that e-liquid does not last very long, otherwise I would grab a 6mg bottle for historical reference.
48MG Probably will not die out as long as there is a demand and no Federal Regulation. I'm sure that many of the suppliers in the U.S will end up buying Nicotine pure. Hazmat suits etc and mixing there own.

If refrigerated in the dark Nicotine solution should last around 2 years.

A quick personal observation to add to my post below...if I mix any type of full flavored (Marlboro Red) analog with my 36mg I do notice a slight discomfort in my stomach so based on my personal experience anything as "strong" as 36 or 48 should not be mixed with full strength analogs. Again, this is based on my own personal experience and might not be the same for everybody...

I like to vape on 36MG, and I have vapped on 48Mg. Which does have a really really strong kick to it.

36Mg should do you just fine, and if it doesn't then something is wrong. 36Mg is a lot higher than 24Mg. Not super high differance, but you will be able to notice how much stronger it is.

I like mixing 36Mg with other 36MG, and I like mixing in 48Mg in with flavors on top of 36Mg. Which keeps up the nicotine really high.....

Slaucy, you will probably find that most who vape 48mg do cut it with something else.

Some add plain PG or VG and some flavoring....that will cut the nic level plus add taste.

Some cut with a lower flavored juice....like if you mix 50/50 with 36mg to come up with a 42mg mix.

I am experimenting with it myself right now. I know I want something between 36mg and 48mg....so I will mix the 2 but I also want to add in some heavy flavoring and haven't quite figured out how much of that to put in yet and still maintain the nic level I want.

I think the experimenting will be interesting! :p

Hi, Slaucy,

I've been vaping 48mg about six hours today, at the 'puter and some around the yard. It is doable for me. Some people, including some VERY experienced nicotine addicts have had adverse reactions to vaping 48mg. One guy, TropicalBob, had a scary experience.

But even if you do find it excessive by itself, you still have the 48 to mix and cut down. In fact, I have some coming and will be mixing some 42 to try out.

One of the harm reduction researchers, I read recently, routinely vapes 50mg himself.

Good God, guys! You're killing yourselves vaping uncut 48 mg (or, IMO, 36 mg). The *intended* use is for cutting (to save $).

Get a Prodigy (or GG or SD) or a passthrough (especially Puresmoker's). People who use them say the hit is equal to at least 2X the nicotine level.

    Thats a lot of info, I'll definatly try it to see how it goes. If I turn blue and start to heave I guess I'll have to tone it down. Thanks

    How about a better idea, and try 36mg first?
    :confused:

    It is not a 'contest'! Vape what keeps YOU off analogs, but don't double the amount you're vaping now as a 'first step.'

    I'M RIGHT HERE
    only vaping 2 months started at 24, ordered a bunch of 36, and then a bunch of 48

    got my 901 working great, on all 3 strength's. i did mix some of the 48 into my 24 cause, it just needed a little more kick. so it is bumped up to about 28-30.

    other than that mixing, i have not done any cutting. the 48 is wicked strong but i find myself vaping that str8 up, in the morning with my coffee. but i'm not huffing it, you know a couple good throat hits , and then set it down for a little bit, till ur head quits spinning. lol during the rest of the day, i just switch , between the 28 and 36. i must say that my 901 works very well, very well. it's all auto batt's and an auto-pass, sometimes i use the 48 when i use the auto pass also cause that 5 second cut-off doesnt give me the hit i want unless i use the 48.
    soon that will all change, within the next week or two my prodigy mod & my PS manual pass-thru will arrive. so with the new equipment, it will probably be a different ballgame.

    A couple of us needed the mg's to get off the analog's, 510 alone give's the hit, but 36 cured the jones's
