Something I can't figure out numbers wise

[Fud]

Ok i bought two 30 ml juice bottles rated at 24 mg. My understanding is an average cig is about 1mg unless you chew the filter after.

My dropper holds ! ml then it's divided like a ruler in icrements like .1 ml and subdivided by 5 after that. So then you use only a few drops at a time right.

I can't see how it come anywhere near a carton of sigs and in a thread below people were saying it cost them 17 bucks a day to vap? A carton of real cigs can cost almost a hundred bucks now depending on which brand.

The real question is how do i translate 30 ml of juice and 24 mg of nic into the amount of cigs approx for that one bottle which is 20 bucks. And when they say 24 mg is that for the whole bottle or per ml?

A ful dropper say an herb dropper is about 1 ml and you get alot from one bottle so i can't see how the math works.

I'm kind of confused 24 mg strenth is per ml or for the whole bottle?

24mg per ml (approximately). So, let's say that one ml is worth 80 puffs, or, about 10 analogs. Works out to be about 2.4mg per 8 puffs. Of course, not all of that makes it into the bloodstream.

As for the $17 a day thing, that's just crazy. I'm a heavy vaper (at about 5ml per day); and, even at a buck a ml (for TW's juices), this is only $5/day for juice. Even if you added in a generous dollar a day for atomizers/cartomizers, and a generous dollar a day for batteries, then you'd still only be at $7/day.

The $17/day to vape were people factoring in all their equipment costs, consumables, spare parts, ect, then dividing that by the # of days vaping - a number that will fluxuate wildly depending on how much stock you are holding in spare parts, extra juice, etc.


The average person vapes between 2 & 3ml of liquid a day - factor in an atty and a battery a month for equipment average life-spans, and you're at 3.25-3.75/day to vape. Better, by far, than a pack of smokes.

Wanna see that number really drop - try DIY - low strength nic for your liquids and a modded battery (SD, Stick, Prod, GG, Zi)..... I come up with a rough estimate of 1.30/day to vape.

I agree with you Vicks. I'm at no more than $2 a day and dropping. I believe it will end up settling in at about $1.20 a day. Compare that to $8 for analogs.

Yep, something often not made clear in the beginning just by glancing over posts is that the mg strength is PER ml. So in a 30 ml bottle of 24mg strength e-liquid you have 720mg of nic, really.
