Question about nic level

[Vapoor eyes er]

I'm a recovering alcoholic so nooooooo way for me! 1 year and no booze, 7 weeks and no smokes

I have whittled down from 24mg to 8-9mg. I find some flavors give more TH and at least it seems that juices with at least 70% pg give more TH.

I find the TH also depends on the device you're using, resistance of the ato and voltage you're using. My (current) all day vape 12mg Pineapple on an ego+stardust will blow my lungs out on the SB with a LR AGA-T. In this way it's sometimes easier to lower the nic without sacrificing the hit.

I recently tried juice from VaporRenu (the Swedish Fish is great!), and they offer an option to increase TH; I searched around for what they are using to increase TH without upping nic or PG:

VaporRenu

Apparently, they use a bit of alcohol to up the TH, but that could mess with flavor and/or vapor a bit. Might be something to consider...

(As a newb, I want to try out VV's and other set-ups to adjust flavor/TH/vapor before trying the Everclear route)

Just keep at it and don't go back to analogs!

I read somewhere that capsaicin is sometimes used to add a TH sensation.

i too reqire the throat hit. the pg and the nic level gives throat hit, ive also noticed some flavors with same pg/vg mix and nic level have various levels of throat hit.

Capsicum irritates me in an unpleasant way. It "burns" your throat rather than " hits" it. And my chest feels bad after vaping capsicum. Its a chemical found in pepperspray; while this is not a valid argument against the chemical itself, the thought bothere me quite a bit.

A yr ago myself and a group of friends bought 4 diff types of TH enhancers. They irritated our throats in the most severest of terms rather than give TH. It was only afterwards that I discovered a number of ECF Vets got together and tested TH enhancers. They came to the same conclusion.

I also resemble that remark.

So far, and I am very new at this, I have been using only VG because the PG burned my throat. Been ordering juice from Johnson creek and they use nic percentages, highest being 2.4% which is what I got (heavy smoker). Some of the flavors I notice have better TH than others. Got some prefilled carts that are only 1.8% and may as well be smoking Carlton 100's if anyone knows about those. LOL

Nicotine level primarily, and vapor temperature, which simply speaking comes from voltage.

To be that guy, vapor temp comes from the amount of energy which is being converted to heat. You can change that through voltage or resistance. For constant voltage devices the only way to lower or increase vapor temp is to inversely change the resistance.

Ive found im getting great TH with my AGA T2 At low ohms with some 6mg nic juice from Mountain Vapor and 28g kanthal wire... Dont see myself short on TH, vapor production, or flavor anytime soon... dropped from 18mg to 6mg with this setup, and ive only had this atty and setup for 2 weeks, and vaping for 6 weeks... Trust me.... 13 yr dedicated analog smoker til now! Hope this helps n good luck kickin the nic!

Throat hit also comes from the ingredients in the liquid - a 30/70 VG/PG mix is pretty "thick". Nicotine probably doesn't hurt, either. 24mg is a safe bet.
