I normally vape 24mg liquid and have used this strength since the beginning. Sometimes I dilute it a little if it's PG to get some VG in there but it's not uncommon for me to use 24mg straight up.
In an effort to try to cut down, I decided to up the juice to 36mg. Yes, I know this is contrary to what just about everyone else does but my aim is to reduce the vaping if not the nicotine. I'm a bit puzzled by the results though.
Even though the nicotine concentration has gone up by 50%, my vaping has gone down to about 25% of what it was and possibly less. My physical reaction to the stronger stuff is very noticible - heavy heart beat [but not in a "I'm going to die" kind of way - more like "I've just run up a flight of stairs" kind of way]. In short, I've gone from a few puffs every few minutes to a few puffs every 20-30 minutes - actually, now that I've written this it seems more like down to 10% of my former vaping on 24mg. It's very curious - why would there be such a difference?
Maybe it's just a temporary adjustment and I'll be back to vaping almost constantly in a few days but I hope not, I'm trying to get my addiction timing more like that of smoking [in bursts] rather than continual.
[EDIT - just realised that this might be misinterpreted as a plug/promotion of 36mg juice and that is not my intention. 36mg juice is seriously dangerous stuff and should be used with some degree of caution. DYOR, etc, etc.]
