Malrboro lights to e-Liquids nicotine question !!!

[webb]

So I placed an order with EC-Blend and I picked "Regular" for nicotine,so I get the order and I see each bottle has 18mg of nicotine and 50%PG/50%VG

Questions:

So what's the 18% ? The bottle is 18% is the equals to smoking a regular cigarette ?

What's 50%PG/50%VG ? When I ordered I left this option "regular" because I had no clue.

Thanks

I was a 40 year Marlboro Man (first 15 on reds, last 25 on lights). I get the 18 and it's about right for me.

I suggest you read this: New User Electronic Cigarette FAQ - ECF InfoZone

I was going to type out an answer, but this is easier for me. Not trying to be an ...., but go read it, you need to based on your post

I smoked Marlboro lights and I use 18mg and 24mg. I've read several places that 12mg is roughly equal to light cigs. I wanted to make sure I kicked the cigs straight off, so I went with high nic.

 

[MrBobVapor]

18mg on this end.

That is one of the things you need to experiment with. I started with 24 and have stuck with it and I use less than 2 ML a day of fluid. That is one of the funny things about vaping I have no idea what the nicotine levels were in the cigs I smoked.

Smoked MLs too - I vape 18 or 1.8% as well. But since I chain vape I seem to overdo at times......depending on how much u will vape also plays into what strength nico u want - I decided to get some nico free juice - to me the flavor and taste is just not there in these. That is my opinion - and I use mostly Johnson Creek 100% VG Dom and Ten....

I also smoked lights, and I went with 12mg. I tried 18, but got nic sick. 12 is the sweet spot for me.

18mg made me sick at first switching from malboro lights. i had to use 12mg, then work up to 18mg for the throat hit.

btw it isnt 18% its 1.8% nicotine im fairly sure. Liquid nicotine is very strong, and i would even argue people shouldnt use over 24mg. Ive read people using 60mg diy juice loool

I smoked Camel lights, and started with 12 mg but was chain vaping. Switched to 18 and now I am fine and can put the thing down LOL. It is individual.

 

[teamscon]

From what ive read since ive been here, everyones body reacts differently to the nicotine in ejuice. Some people cant vape over 12mg, and some need 34-36mg LOL. 24mg makes me sick as a dog ... Im pretty sure 36mg would send me to the doctor atleast. 60mg may kill me ... No way would i even try it.

 

[damthisisfun]

Over did it again today - argggggg - cant wait for my DIY supplies so I can make some low nico flavors....

What's 50%PG/50%VG

 

[SpicyMcHaggis]

What's 50%PG/50%VG

Half each of:
PG - Propylene Glycol
VG - Vegetable Glycerin(Glycerine = glycerin = vegetable glycerin(e) = glycerol)

Higher PG = More flavor
Higher VG = More Vapor

Thanks mang !!! I think I will stick with 50/50.

I smoke Marboro Lights myself. I vape at 12 mg. It seems to be good for me. I have yet to feel "over vaped."

 

[MsMacgyver]

When I started vaping the first thing I did was google my brand of smokes to see what nic level I had been smoking. Some say you absorb the nic slower when you vape. Theres some trial and error when you start vaping. My best advice, take full advantage of all the information on ECF and read...read...and read some more...LOL

 

[webb]

I will get my next ones 10/12mg.

ML for me too a pack a day and I could only vape at 6mg. I think that ML's have .7 mg per smoke. I am one of those people anything over 8mg makes me sick. I think it all depends on the person not really what brand or how much you smoked. My hubby smoked Camel filtered up to 2 PAD and he can only vape 9-12mg and he does not chain vape also he deep inhales. There have been a few times I tried a puff or so of 18mg and was throwing up for hours. I see people vaping 36mg and think wow and they are still alive.
