This is depressing. Suggestions?

[Sallana]

So I recently placed an incredibly large order over at TV (15 bottles) and since the last juice I'd gotten from them was a 24mg atomic cinnacide that was a bit powerful for my taste, I decided to get all 12mg.

It's not cutting it. Great vapor and taste, but not even close to enough TH. I also find myself vaping so hard on these that my e-cig actually gets too hot to hold. I have a burn mark...

Luckily I also bought like 5 bottles off a sale on the classifieds, which are 24mg and pretty decent flavors. So I mean, I'm not worried about going back to cigs, if I really need some nic I just drip some 24mg which as it turns out, is actually perfect for me. The AC is just a strong hit by itself.

I don't want these other bottles to become like, back shelved. And I'm also not interested in the hassle it would take to swap them all. Although if that ends up to me my last alternative, it's what I will do. But who is really going to be willing to trade a 24mg juice for a 12?

How can I add more nic to these without losing flavor?? I'm terrified of touching pure nic or having it my house at all... (I have a VERY curious 2 year old).

I thought of getting like, a 48mg flavorless from TV but I remember doing that once before to add nic to juice (granted with 0nic doublers) and it ended up that I couldn't even taste the flavor.

What I need is like, an 80mg flavorless. Something really concentrated but not like, deadly.

I do keep my juices locked up so Evan can't get to them, but it still worries me. Even for my own health, I don't want to touch pure nic.

I heard somewhere that you can add vodka or other alcohol to increase TH (I realize that it's not going to do much about the nic, but even getting a more solid TH would be nice.) Does this alter the flavor?

Any suggestions would be helpful. I can't imagine I'm the only one out there who has skrewed themselves like this.

With the lower nic content, sometimes moving to HV vaping can increase the "kick" and provide more satisfaction.

Thanks for the suggestion. I appreciate any and all input.. But I can't spend any more money on vaping stuff for a while. At least until we break even. I have 5 reg 510 bats and 5 atomizers... I sort of want to not spend money on another device... lol

Try getting some low resistance attys for your 510 (eastmall has them for $3 plus shipping). This can give you a 5v like experience and possible improve the effectiveness of your lower nic juice.

Contact TV and ask the "experts" what they recommend and tell them the 24mg in their juice is working for you and why does the lower nic have to sacrifice TH?

AC is tricky because it's flavor is so awesomely powerful. Other flavors don't have that jolt.

I have juices that are low nic and they still have great vapor and TH. I alternate them with my 24 & 36 nic and am quite satisfied.

Good luck. I can understand your disappointment in a huge order that isn't working for you. I am interested in knowing how you resolve this so please update this thread with your solutions.

My wife and I recently moved to 12mg as well. On the way down, I felt that the nic TH was a myth...but now we are vaping through LOADS of juice...

...and even though the nic is lower, I think by us vaping harder to get that TH is actually causing us to intake MORE nicotine, because I know end up getting jittery when before I wouldn't. And Im burning through twice the juice.

She denies it, but she is vaping way more than she used to... she says she vapes more because "She can"...but she is insane, I think we have to go back up...

Maybe it is I who am mad.

If you like the flavors but need to turn 12 mg into 24 mg, simply buy the same flavors in 36 mg and then mix the two. Equal parts 12 + 36 = 24.

You could get a small bottle of 50mg unflavored juice in 100% PG and then add a little to your but you will lose some flavor.

I would try putting a few drops of Vodka to 3ml of your juice as a test. Or if you can get EverClear or anything similar.

I put Dark Rum in my Caramel and it increases the TH and enhances the flavor also.

15 bottles is like a 200$ purchase.. I can't afford to go that route.. But thank you very much for the input.

I just thought of something else.

I have some 510's and I alternate them...one starts getting warm, I switch to another one. Keeps me going all night with great vaping. I also top off a lot and use fluval in the cartridges.

I'm exploring 510 cartomizers so I can change flavors easily. These are really cheap.

If you don't have a LR 510 atty, then I can't recommend it enough!

I've never touched a regular 510 atty since using LR ones. The throat it is twice as strong and the flavor is better also.

 

[Sallana]

LR...?? large? What is that?

 

[Sallana]

So I was told to update this if I discovered some sort of solution.

Aside from starting a thread over in the classifieds forum for higher nic juice, I took some advice from a completely different thread here in this forum from someone saying they dripped and removed the bridge in their atomizer. I had no idea one could even do this. So I tested it out on a dead atty first and it seemed easy enough. I took the leap and tried it on a working one.. and I gotta say - This is great. The TH still isn't AS satisfying as I would like it to be, so I'm going to keep my swap post open and see what offers I get over the next few days. But this little trick makes me hate myself much less. It's very nice. I suggest doing this to anyone that drips.

No big deal.

If you add about 15% of 100 mg unflavored juice this will take you overall from 12 to about 24 mg.

This only dilutes the flavor by 15% and is hardly noticeable.

I do something similar to raise my 26 mg juice to 35 mg. or more.

I got my 100 mg juice from Xtreme Vaping.

Good luck !

a few drops of rye i use wisers whiskey,vodka did nothing for me when i was diy mixing but whiskey seemed to do the trick.i put 2-5 drops in a 3 ml bottle.if you do this try 1 drop first.my 2 cents at a no money fix.

An LR atty is a "low resistance" (electrical term) atomizer.
You need to check these out! Simulates 5V vaping. You will need to upgrade your PV to something with a stronger battery. I suggest the Ego (or Tornado) or any of it's clones . You can get the battery only as it fits with any of your 510 gear. Under $30.
I've been using the LT attys from TW and haven't had any problems.

 

[mini_art]

be aware you should not use a lr atty on a regular 510 battery. They are not ment for that.

the only thing you will find when using a lr atty on a standard battery is reduced battery life and charge. no other problems.

the ego battery isn't designed for higher discharge rates any more than a standard battery, it just lasts longer.

Would you like to trade any? How many ml are they? I have a 30ml marlboro 24mg that just wasnt for me if your interested..
