12mg is I think mild cig strength, 18mg is regular.
Try it and see, if the 16 is too much, then buy some 12mg.

Can't beat personal experience for these things.

You cannot equate what one smoked with what nic level to use in your eliquid. Smoking is much more efficient in getting nicotine into your system than vaping is.

For a typical or average smoker, I always recommend they start out at 18 - 24mg nic level and adjust up or down from there. Remember, it is easy to reduce the nic in the eliquid you have, but you can't increase it. You are much more likely to fail in transitioning to vaping by having too low nic eliquid that having too high.

And as others have mentioned, getting the same flavor eliquid in say 24mg and 12mg will allow you to mix the two to any level inbetween those two levels.
