How does the Mg content work? I mean, i understand the higher the mg the more the nicotine but....... Say i have a 10ml bottle of 24mg Boba's Bounty...does that mean there is 24mg of Nicotine per drop? Per puff? I'M SURE the explanation is here on the ECF Forum some where but i couldn't find any thing. Also, .....a regular pack of cigs how does that work? Can somebody post me a link to that info or help explain that so i could understand it? Pleeeease? Thanks in advance, the community here is great!

A single cigarette delivers about 0.8 - 1 mg of nicotine (it actually has much more nicotine, but that is what you absorb).

Best I can tell, from measurements by Etter last year and some other reports, an experienced vaper might absorb 1/5 of the nicotine in eliquid, and newer people with little experience and/or weaker gear are probably more like 1/6 or even less. That would mean that 18 mg/ml eliquid is delivering (being absorbed by the user) about 3 - 3.5 mg per ml vaped, about 3 - 4 cigarettes worth.

This is just an approximation. The cig info is good, but the measurements on vaping are from a fairly small data set.

Interesting! Anybody know if 36mg would be double the 18mg? Just curious. This is interesting to know.

Edit: And if 9mg is 1/2 what you (Etter) state? I'm sure it's not a "straight" line per mg. But, interesting information.

I'd be interested in the link if you have one on how this was determined.
