nicotine strenght from some venders stronger than others

[Caffusss]

I have tried nic liquid labeled at 50mg weaker than liquid from another vender at 18mg....using the same voltage, same type of atty, same mod. Anyone else experiance this? Or something similar?
Thank you

Depends how you are rating the nic level. By how hard the Throat Hit is? The taste in your mouth?

Nicotine is super nasty chemical type taste in your mouth. If it really was 50 mg, that would have been the nastiest tasting juice you ever tried. Also the racing heartbeat and headache would be a taletale sign you OD'd on Nic as well.

Now throat hit, vapor production, leftover taste in your mouth: these are all affected by many different aspects of juices besides the nic.

I don't buy premade juice anymore, I refused to pay those prices a long long time ago. DIY is super cheap, and I use the money I save to buy mods. My quality controll is a lot better then a lot of suppliers out there also. I know exactly what is in my juices, and no one but me does the work.

im also wonder how you measure "its weaker"?
what makes you try 50mg in the first place?

Isn't 50mg a little dangerous?

 

[Eddie.Willers]

50mg? Are you sure? You are vaping a juice at 50mg/mL strength? I would have thought that this would make you feel sick in short order...

The juice labeled 50mg...I am sure is not really 50mg....becuase i can vape it all day and not get a nic "buss" No dizziness nothing. Then I have tried 18mg from another vender and I did feel the nic rather quickly. And the "50mg" juice was not supposed to be vaped unmixed but it was so weak mixed I tried it and it didnt taste bad. I had to buy 100mg juice and add it to it with flavor to get the strenght I need. I know I have a high tolerance for nicotine and I know what it feels like when I've had too much I stop. (Rarely happens) Stow were do you get you unflavored juice from?

 

[Caffusss]

I do DIY becuase it is cheaper, but once and a while I buy made juice to try it....Also I started with premixed juice, cuase I thought thats all thier was. And the Unmixed "50mg" juice i have is way to weak.

Wow! Somthings not right here. I don't know anyone who sells 50mg to vape by itself. It usually would be sold for blending purpose. I'm kind of hardcore about mg. I only vape 36mg because that's what I need to keep off squares. I usually buy 100mg straight nic for blending purpose. Taking a 24 mg juice and making it vapable for me. I don't think I would vape 50 mg juice.
I'm not going to tell another person what to do. But Dude, That's strong! As far as it tasting as weak as 18mg. That maybe because of where or who you bought it from. It very well could be weaker! Hope you get it sorted out.

Ya..its not the taste that is weak its the nic...labeled 50mg/ml but it's not...maybe it was a mistake. And it is for mixing, but when I mix it ...I could tell it was way to weak so I tried it striaght and it was okie...but weaker than another venders 18mg/ml.
Thanks

Something got labeled wrong... Wondering where you obtained it, but prolly not a good idea to name them publicly...

I'm thinking about the poor SOB that ordered straight PG and got your 100 mg/ml juice by mistake...

 

[Caffusss]

well, evryone makes mistakes....so we have to be careful and pay attention to how we are feeling while vaping...we start to feel lightheaded...time to take a break.

That is the moral of the story... and because everyone makes mistakes from time to time I didn't want the vendor named...

If I were the vendor, I'd want to know about it, though... (I'm not a vendor)

If it is a 5 ml bottle only labeled as 50mg and not explicitly 50mg/ml then it could just be the TVN (total volume of Nicotine) of the bottle. That would put the nic at 10mg/ml. Seems like a more likely case if the nic is really that weak. Grab an 8 ml sample and see if it compares. I would alert the vendor as well, perhaps they got the ratio wrong.

Venders who handle 100mg eliquid are smart enough to wear gloves . Steeping has a lot to do with the taste of eliquid . Fresh eliquid IMO has less strength and flavor . If you DIY then let it steep for a couple of weeks then try it . I also think it steeps faster unrefrigerated .

Very possible... Never heard of anyone measuring that way, though... Another argument for standardized labeling. I'm in favor of the percentage method, which would make this particular sample a 1% sample.
