You are right it is a crazy sort of idea. I can see the appeal but I'm afraid transdermal nicotine has to be calculated pretty carefully and designed so it doesn't all get released at once. Also, you have no idea what amount to start with, how much would be "too much" for you, and transdermal absorption is a PROCESS that takes time. So, you can stop vaping, you can spit out a nicotine lozenge, etc. and the process is halted. Your skin is many layers deep, so even if you rip of your nic juice saturated bandaid or whatever you were hoping to use, well, nicotine absorption cannot be stopped INSTANTEOUSLY, more nic is trapped in your skin layers and will continue to be absorbed, whether you want that or not.
Really, unless you'd like to try vaping, I am afraid you more or less wasted your time and money.
I do use alternate nic products, including in the past lozenges or gum and never noticed any ill effects. Now when I cannot vape I use snus, which is also a decent harm reduction method.
But things are formulated the way they are for a reason and that reason is, different types of nicotine are designed for different things and vape liquid is NOT designed for that, and it sounds like you have a potent ENOUGH batch (although it's not pure nicotine) that you could quite easily do yourself some damage. Give it to a DIY vaper who can use it how it's intended.
I'm not going to shame you for being "stupid" or anything else, but I am going to recommend you maybe talk to your doc about and alternate method that has less probability to harm you.
Good luck and I'm glad you asked the question rather than finding out the hard way.
