New to the world of vaping and sorry I didn't make the switch sooner! I've been "smoke free" for all of 11-days now and am already feeling breathing improvements! I was a 1-pack per day Marlboro Menthol smoker for the better part of 30-years.

I'm still trying numerous E-juice flavors to find what I like and don't like, but have a question about what is "normal" E-juice consumption / usage?

I am currently using 1.2 ml nicotine in all my juice and am going through approx. 4.5 - 5 ml per day of juice. This equates to about 2 tanks daily from my Halo Triton tank.

Is this a normal amount of juice usage?

Would like some feedback from some more experienced folks if not too much trouble...

I agree with back.vap. Between 3 - 5 ml of e-liquid per day is the "norm".

Those who use sub-ohm coils burn through e-liquid much more quickly due to the higher heat which produces more vapor and consumes additional e-liquid. Consequently, these individuals are able to drop the nicotine concentration in their liquids.


Oh, and welcome to the forum. :thumbs:

The number of ml usage depends on the wattage that you vape at.

As a ballpark number:
if you vape at 5 watts, you probably use like 2 to 5 ml per day.
If you vape at 10 watts, you probably use like 5 to 10 ml per day.

another ballpark figure:
watts x mg-strength = 100

You're normal...no worries.

Back when I used Tritons (and the similar Kanger T2...more below), 5 mil is about what I used per day. I was a 40 year heavy 3 pad smoker. My wife has been using these style tanks for 2 years and that's consistant with her daily usage.

If you ever find that you need replacements and Halo is out, or you want to save money, the Triton tank is nearly identical to the Kanger T2. The T2 will work on a Triton battery but leave a tiny gap. All T2 replacement heads work in both tanks.

I used to smoke half a pack of cigarettes a day and now vapes about 10 to 15 ml a day! I vape with tanks during day. That's driving to work, at work, and driving home. And at home I drips. I used the Freemaxx Starr/Maganus v2 and they take a lot of liquid. I finish about 2, 5ml tanks during my day and the drippings probably a few more before I go to bed lol.

hello and welcome I use about 5 to 8 ml in my nautilaus mini on an eleaf at about 7 watts I smoked a solid pack a day for 40 years and haven't had a cig for 45 days, don't miss it one tiny bit. I switch between 12 mg and 18 mg depending. I had a real love for only Vader pudding for awhile now I switch it up. don't care much for tobacco flavours and prefer sweet. happy Vaping

Welcome to ECF. Congratulations on switching to vaping! I've found that the higher the nicotine level, the less juice I use. I started at 12mg (like you) and vaped 3-4ml/day. I increased the nicotine level to 18mg and found my craving to be less, so I vaped less, down to around 2ml/day. It's different for everyone. If you just enjoy vaping, like many people do, they'll drop their nicotine level down to 6mg or 3mg. For people that like vaping, but are trying to reduce the cravings, they'll vape at a higher nicotine level and less often. It's far from a science, so experiment with slightly higher or lower nicotine levels, and you'll find the combination that suits you the best.
