Actually, I started with 36mg and bought 32mg menthol tobacco for a long time before going down to 24.

First time I went to the shop to pick up Egos I got 24 and 36. Didn't have a clue what was what. Don't believe I even finished the bottle of 36. Don't remember why in detail, just that it BAD. I was on 24 for a year or two then tried 18. I didn't even notice a difference. So I thought why not go to 12. That was a miserable failure. It was several more years before I was able to drop to 12, and a few more years to get down to 6. Never did try moving down in small steps for some reason.

Been on 6 for a long time. I did try going down to 4 a few times. That wasn't scary but I just didn't enjoy it so much. Don't see trying to reduce it anytime.

I may still try to get at least one black one even though I have to pay for the wife’s crown later this month.

YIKES. I thought 24mg was hardcore Hitt!

I used to buy the Puresmoker silver leaf menthol in 32mg for a long time. I would wait for a sale and buy 2-300ml at a time.

I started on 24. Then the stm entered my life and started mixing 24 with 18 within weeks. Then the tf4 became a goto and settled in at 12 for years. These days 9-6 works fine.

I started at 12mg in an ego AIO. Soon it was down to 3mg - chucking clouds with dual battery mods. I stuck to 3 or 4mg for a long time in all devices and still vape mostly 3 but have recently gone up to 12 mg in my pods and my only MTL setup. It's a delro with a Kayfun BB at around 15W.

I still use a siren v1 for mtl with my menthol tobacco and mix that at 18mg. It’s my go to when I wake up in the morning.

I also tried to go down from 6mg to 3mg. It did not work. Seemed hollow

I’m at 3 and 1.5 mgs depending on the time of day. Heart rhythm irregularities finally made me decide to drop down a bit especially at night. I still can’t tell the difference.

I started at 18mg MTL and only dropped it down over the years whenever chain vaping made me nic sick. I'm at 4mg now and plan to stay here.

Brat.

What’s everyone buying for batteries lately? I need to retire some 21700 Samsungs and Molicells. I noticed both manufacturers have new ones available.
What’s up with the Samsung 50S 5000mAh25A anyone using that recently ? I don’t need higher amps at this point. 25amps cdr is fine for my wattage.


Update - just found the battery forum been a while since I visited. Curious what others are buying.

I've been buying Molicels for the last two years. Before that I bought whatever they were selling at the local places.
All of my 21700s are Molicel P42s but I don't have very many of those.
I mostly use 18650s and have a bunch of Molicel P26s and some P28s.
I'm about ready to retire the last of my VRK 18650s which have served me very well for a number of years.
I also have a few Hohm Tech 18650s. When they are retired I'll be 100% Molicel.

 

[englishmick]

I used HG2's for years but they suddenly disappeared. Don't know if they are available these days.

Then I got a few Moli's. There was a major battery drought for a while and Moli's were about all there was. Highly rated by Mooch. Not the best for me though, lots of power that I don't need but not the greatest capacity.

After that I changed over to NCR18650GA 10A 3500. 10A is more than enough for me and the 3500 capacity meant they last a long time. I get them from Liion.

I recently started using the Samsung 50S in my 3 fave setups that get hammered. Love the extra capacity. I use molicel p42a in everything else. But when my p42a batteries start dying, I'll be grabbing more Samsung 50s.
