Well I DIY, and I recently went from 12mg to 14mg, and I've been vaping sub-ohm for nearly 3 years now, and definitely did notice a change. I got a cold soon into the nic increase, and have been coughing up gunk for over a month now. I'm going back to 12gm nic in my next batch.
Question about nicotine levels when switching to a sub ohm set up

If you just need some VG you can get small bottles from WALMART to do your first intro into DIY
you can add to cut your nic and PG back this will also dilute out the flavor aswell so do small samples to see how it goes at first

OK, nobody ever gave me that commandment, I suppose because they knew I would rebel against it. I'm totally allowed to smoke if I want to, I just haven't wanted to in over two years now.
YES! It's kind-of frusterating, for someone like me, that can't afford to be buying TWO levels of nicotine, if I want to use the newer tanks, AND my older RDAs and tanks... For instance, I'm using my Smoktech dripper RDA right now, at 11w on my kanger subox... if I were to switch to my subtank mini, i couldn't possibly use 12mg nicotine, because NONE of the coils i have are above 1ohm... and the subtank mini's airflow is too damn airy, even at the lowest setting, which means my 12mg nic will blow my head off my throat! So, I vape my subtank mini at 7w w/the smallest airflow hole, w/12mg nic, and, I just take shorter hits, and less drags all-together.
There is nothing we can do about the changes in the gear available... we just have-to adapt. So, if that means keeping 30ml of 12mg for my older RDAs an tanks, and 30ml of 6 or 9mg, for my newer tanks and RDAs, then so be it... I will always use lower wattage, i just dont like warm vapor as much as cool vapor with a nice throat hit.... but, at-least i know HOW to enjoy the old & new tech, right?
Just adapt and adopt new practices man, it's easy, and, the new gear is leapyears ahead of the old, which is nice.

I've also found that with subohming, in addition to lowering the nic level, I find it necessary to reduce the level of flavoring to keep from being overwhelmed.
I dropped from 18mg {evod} to 12mg {sub ohm} I chain vape and thinking about dropping yo to 6mg, 12 seems to high.
I normally vape between 25-35 watts on 0.4-0.7ohm builds, and I find 12mg perfect for these.
I recently bought a couple of high power atty's, the Aromamiser and the DotMod Petri RDA, which I'm hitting between 45-60w.
I tried 6mg juice with these, and it just doesn't work for me. It's a lovely vape, but doesn't suit my vaping style.
I like to take a 5 minute vape break, hit it for nic, then get back to whatever I'm doing for the next hour or two.
So I'll be sticking with 12mg in all attys.
I'll simply treat the high power atty's with the required respect.

Each person has to find what works out for them.
For me I smoked when I was awake on days ending in Y. If I couldn't smoke I was looking for a way to do so.
Now I vape the same way.
When I do 12 on a tootle puffer I take in a fearful amount of nic and it makes me super jittery. Lower it down to 6mg and I'm all good.
Others do it differently. I don't think there is a 'right" way except the way that works for each person.

going from tootle puffin to sub ohming is comparable to sipping a beer to chugging the whole can each time you swallow.
take 20 sips and you are good to go... chug 20 cans and one will feel the effects...
