I do 3 mls of 14 mg so 42 mg a day, and I use .30% total flavoring in my DIYed ADV.

I also smoked RYO, but I did it for twenty-two years. Always unfiltered and at the end I was going through 75g (3oz) a week.
I bought the tubes with filters, so more like stuffing my own. I was using about 6oz/week...
Wow, 6oz is a lot. I can see why your levels are what they are.
I could never get on with those tube machines, too much faff for me.
But what we can do is see where we fall on the bell curve. I think people feel if they lower their nicotine they are in turn vaping healthier. I say if their nicotine is so low they can vape 20 mls a day, they are running a higher risk of some unforeseen issue with flavoring. Basically, too much of a good thing?
Sometimes up to 2ml/day, 24mg. I'll just round it up to less than 50..

One thing that needs to be considered is why people vape the way they do. Initially (for most), it's to stop smoking but after that the reasons will differ.
Personally, I vape for the stimulative effect that nicotine provides me but also the oral stimulation which I gained previously from smoking (I was pretty much a chain smoker, little but often was my habit).
If I were to vape less often using higher nicotine levels I would still need to find a way to satisfy the oral fixation and, knowing me, that would probably be via food. This, in turn, would have a more immediate (negative) effect upon my health than any possible dangers that may, or may not, come from flavourings.
I think nicotine is probably one of the least worse things in e-liquid...
@Mazinny, your quotation from "Topwater Elvis" is driving me nuts because I do not see it in this thread!
Nevermind the above, it magically appeared
And it is interesting because he says he is delivering 48-72mg. And per the link I gave you just above, that computes to about 30-45 cigs a day, and that should certainly peg a nic/cotinine test. Something does not compute here
That can't be accurate; in my case, 45mg per day (5ml x 9mg), so 45*.5/.5 (the amount of nic in the cigs I smoked) would mean 45 cigarettes a day -- I haven't smoked that much in more than 15 yrs, so if I was getting that much nicotine, it would definitely make me queasy. I was smoking no more than a pk a day of those .5mg nicotine cigarettes when I quit, and usually less, thanks to their expense.

mines would be impossible to figure out because im all over the spectrum range..i do everything from 0mg to 24mg i dont just stick to one strength simply because and this is only for me i have noticed different flavors taste better to me at different strengths..
