nausea

[thylordoftime]

Hey guys,

so i've been using stuff like spinners, MVPs etc for a year now, and I tried dripping a few weeks ago. It left me feeling nauseas to the point where I couldn't function until I finally threw up. I just recently bought the aspire atlantis and a pvd mini, i loved it, but it's now left me with the same issues. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm sitting here nauseas unless I drink something to soothe my stomach. I thought maybe it was too much nicotine, but I was actually vaping less at around 2mls a day, when normally i'd do 6-7mls a day. I vape 18 too, didn't change anything except the device. If anyone has any idea on how to feel better or how I can use this thing without puking. Let me know...
thanks

Most will say the nicotine level is too high, but most will also say one gets far less nicotine from vaping, than smoking. Could just be a reaction to VG...

Nic content is too strong.
D
etermining what you nic content should be is based upon various factors. If you vape constantly, lower nic. If you have difficulty getting the time to vape, maybe a little stronger.

I usually have three levels of nic around. If I am going to sit and watch TV, I go lower. If I am just waking up in the morning, maybe a touch stronger.

Also, just how you draw your vape. Take consistent draws.

Hope helps

You may be allergic to stuff in the liquid. Or your using too high a nicotine. Or your PG is too high. Only 3 things I can think of.

When dripping or using more effeciant delivery devices especially sub ohm most everyone reduces nicmg / ml substantially.

Yes, sounds like a nicotine issue - MOST people substantially cut their nicotine with the newer lower ohms devices.
In those "cloud competitions" folks are probably vaping 2 mg nic.

You should get yourself some 6 mg perhaps, and see if that fixes or improves it!

Are you sure it's the vaping causing it? I'm sure that nicotine can cause your problem, but from what you are describing, it doesn't sound like it would be enough to cause that. You've got to have a LOT of nicotine for that to happen. You'd have many, many other problems such as a rapid heart beat and would be shaking like a leaf before nausea would set in. I know everyone is different, but 18mg is not really all that high. It's mid level.

Perhaps from dripping it's the sudden rapid intake of nicotine…….don't know.

If you going to drip, then drop to 6mg or 3mg Nic. And you have to drink water all day long if you vaping, not just few sips here and there. At least 6 cups of water per day.

Exactly. 18 mg in a CE4 is a whole different animal than 18 mg on an Atlantis or on a dripper.

No. You can get far more nicotine from vaping that from smoking. Easily.

This is what I have thought for a long time, but most on here say the opposite...

You cant add more Nic to a cigarette, you can add more Nic to juice. Plus you inhaling more volume of vapor, and that equals to more Nic. This is why we have at least one newb every two days throwing up from OD'ing on Nicotine do to vaping high Nic juice.

im one of the few people you will see dripping 12 mg on a regular basis. even people i know who vape continuaously all day take a taste of my juice and about fall over.
drop the nic content and if your problem persists try eliminating other ingredients in your liquid like pg or vg.

Hey guys,

so i've been using stuff like spinners, MVPs etc for a year now, and I tried dripping a few weeks ago. It left me feeling nauseas to the point where I couldn't function until I finally threw up. I just recently bought the aspire atlantis and a pvd mini, i loved it, but it's now left me with the same issues. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm sitting here nauseas unless I drink something to soothe my stomach. I thought maybe it was too much nicotine, but I was actually vaping less at around 2mls a day, when normally i'd do 6-7mls a day. I vape 18 too, didn't change anything except the device. If anyone has any idea on how to feel better or how I can use this thing without puking. Let me know...
thanks

nics to high for sub ohming/dripping. man if i even tried 18 in a sub tank i think id ether hack up a lung or puke my guts out. im not a doctor or an expert on vaping im still in my first couple months. but i did get some weird issues from sub ohming 12 nic, if i over do it. supposedly it doubles in sub ohming/dripping a guy at my local vape shop told me. not sure about that tho as im still newish. good luck man hope you figure it out.

Yes we all know what's going on.

You were vaping at 5 and 10 watts, and now suddenly you think you "tried dripping" but I bet you've been vaping at over 30 watts.
If you vape at 3 to 6 times the wattage you need to drop the nicotine strength 3 to 6 times.

There are so many posts on here saying vapers need to vape more to get the same nic as they did from smoking; hence the Walmart vapers...

They should start dripping then.

 

[Plooom]

Never drip at more than 6 nic

 

[wheelie]

Sounds like nicotine to me. I was on 24mg for 7 months with no problem. Then I got nic sick the first time. Had to lay down for 15 minutes. Then it seem to start happening daily so I cut down to 18mg. Never had it happen again.

You can drip fine on 24mg with 34 gauge kanthal, but nobody does that.
34 gauge is just too difficult for the fingerwork to manipulate.
