we can't be buzzing all day sometimes.
Youngsters. :facepalm:

What's this "buzz" thing you speak of? Some of us old curmudgeons chain-vape 15mg all day long just to feel normal. We like our nic clean and smooth. :D

So where do you place it between other nics you've tried. Nn being 1% and rts being 50th percentile.. Exc being about 85th .. VT regular at about 20th...

Place it at about the 35th -45th percentile?

What have you tried that you consider to be the highest th. (For adjustment of your perception)

If I remember correctly, Dixie seems to never experience any TH from nics in general, meaning, imho, that then the vaper isn't inhaled into the lungs during mtl, which also is OK as there's no right or wrong way, only YOUR way :)

Now that make perfect sense to me, if that is what she indeed does when she vapes. I never thought about that, it never entered my mind, as I MTL but inhale also, I thought everyone inhaled. DOH !!:facepalm:

Firstly, sorry dixie for talking about you in second person or how it's put and also if I remember wrong, or assume wrong ;)

Blake, yeah I think most do, but i once read in a stickey here I believe, that the particles in vapor or something, are bigger than the ones in regular tobacco smoke, meaning that whereas with tobacco you pretty much have to inhale into the lungs where the tissue into the blood-wessels are very thin so as to get the nic absorbed that way, whereas with vapor, it's also possible to just let the vapor linger in your mouth for min. 2 secs, as it then also gets absorbed through the saliva glands there...

I sure didn't know any of that. Thanks, now it makes more sense to me.

Why I like what I like ... when I first quit smoking, I wanted TH. I had been hitting my throat for 35 years with toxic smoke ... I needed my vape to be very close to smoking ... all vendor juice uses TH nicotine (it's cheaper) therefore quitting smoking was a walk in the park with vendor juice.

Once I started making my own juice with the same nic that all the vendors use ... all I can taste now is the nicotine, it ranges from subtle to Cajun.

I don't want the nic base to be a flavour I have to work around ... enter Vapers Tek, my ADVs do not have that nicotine taste ... nicotine effects, just not the taste.

I will add ... I was done with the taste for tobacco when I quit smoking.

Vaping is different than smoking was for me ... I never enjoyed smoking out of my teens.

I love to vape ... love :)

Not related to anything, but the nic coa of rts states ph of 6.7! It's probably a mistake and I don't really think it's ph adjusted and there msds lists normal value of 10.2. Maybe it's for the diluted product, but it's listed as for pure nic... Btw, this nic also lists odor as "Slight fish when warm"...

premium ... finding VT nicotine was the biggest game changer in vaping I have discovered.

even at $125 ... mixing eLiquid is not expensive.

I've been using VT's premium nic for ten months now. I was tired of trying to mix flavorings around the awful taste of previous nics. The ECX was the worst. When I moved to VT, recipes just popped and I could reduce overall flavoring levels by half.

I'm looking at making a three or four liter buy for deep freeze. I'm just wondering if VT's TH nic is transparent besides its added throat hit. Not sure I want to drop $450 on nic right now. According to their website, the TH is from Chemnovatic too at less than 25% the cost...

Hi Willy! :)

Can I please ask you about how you dare ordering nic into canada? I'm personally not affraid of the law, but more of getting the nic destroyed and loosing the money for the order with the included very high shipping?

I quickly glanced your laws, and it stated something with prior approval by health canada before importing ecig-liquids with nic, or atleast that was what was listed on post canada's national restrictions...

Thanks!
