Please only vote if you have tried different strengths of the same brand and flavour juice (any brand and flavour). If you just want to vote to see the results please just tick the last box.

I'm trying to find out if low or zero nic juice can have the same harshness and flavour strength as high nic juice.

How do low or zero nic juices from the same maker in the same flavour compare? You can choose more than one box.

I'm going to keep this poll going for a little while, we only need a few voters to give us an idea.

Thanks for voting Sixstring. Did you notice a difference in harshness/throat hit with the different nic level juices?

I have these liquids from puresmoker:

Mint/Menthol 36mg - regular gnome bottle - good throat hit when dripped in a penstyle.
I also have it in 24mg... same hit.

Camel 36mg - regular gnome bottle - Big throat hit, but it seems to have too much nic. I have 24mg on the way.

Marlboro 36mg regular - almost the same as the camel, but not QUITE as harsh.

Strawberry 36mg - premium. Another good throat hit, but I'm not all that fond of the taste.

Pina colada 36mg - premium. No throat hit whatsoever, and leaves EVERYTHING tasting like pineapple candy for hours afterwards.

Hope this helps.

Thanks very much for your observations so far everyone, this is very helpful. It might be a bit inconclusive but I don't see that as a problem.

My guess is that different brands use different additives that affect hit and flavour. It isn't looking like the nicotine itself is necessarily causing differences.

Since I'm a wally I voted for nothing so I could see results easily. I hadn't thought that I would be doing any comparing myself. Then I remembered that I have some Freesmoke coconut flavour in both high and low nic levels. I tried them both and there didn't seem to be any difference to me in harshness or flavour.

So if I could vote I'd say same harshness and same flavour.

this should be it....same taste different nic content.
i did some tests on regular carts myself (same results),

but i think some liquids are made to simulate analogs.
lighter flavor analog cigs have less nic, stronger more and so on.
so a liquid like that with low or no nicotine would be just "warm air",
with very less to no hit/flavor/harshness
