What level of nicotine are you using?

[sidetrack]

Started at 18mg 3 months ago and am now down to 11mg in the day and 10mg at night.

Like cjf1961- I am making my own. I also fill my own cartos.
Takes a modest amount of time, but I usually do the mixing at one time on a weekend.
With DIY, I can adjust PG/VG for vapor and TH, as well as flavor and NIC strength: all vary based on the particular flavor.
I am now using 18mg during the day, but then cut down to 10 mg in the evening.
(DIY is also quite a bit cheaper than pre-made, but again may not be for everyone)

I never smoked a cigarette in my life, but id like to start! Figured vaping is a good start: D

Jk but really, the guy in the mall asked me if i smoke after handing me the ecig to try haha n i said "no but im thinking about starting!" The baffled look on the foreign man's face was priceless def a kodak moment. U shouldve seen it when i told him i was only 17... (wasnt really folks)

24/30/36--depending on vendors highest.

Same here......

 

[melloyello]

started with 8 and 12mg samplers, ordered 18 on the next and now im bouncing 'tween 18-24 but cutting down to 12 or 8 before bedtime

I started with 24, which ended up being too much for me, tried 18, still too much for me.

I've settled in with 12 mg, and 6mg while at work and after 8 pm.... But I cape like it's going out of style!

(smoked a pack and a half a day)

Lazy

I tend to smoke higher mg in the morning. So, throughout the day, I go from 26mg down to 7mg with variations in between ... hey it's all about what I am doing

 

[Pur3Rush]

24mg all day. Just the right TH and still plenty of flavor.

I'm at 24mg. I have a lot of 18mg stuff but end up adding some nic juice to up the level. The throat hit just isnt there for me. I may eventually get down to 18mg, but I have to vape too much to get a satisfactory hit. I'm going to experiment with hv box mods to see if that helps with the satisfaction levels.

Who cares ur not smoking so vape 32 it doesn't matter stay of analogs and it is an improvement

 

[PatKitch]

I've been vaping for a few months at 18mg (previously smoking about 1.5-2 packs/wk) Clearly my nicotine intake has skyrocketed since getting a PV. My next order will probably be 11mg.

 

[swedishfish]

24 mg. all day every day. Not messing with perfection for me. The only reason I would change that is for taste and TH. I'm not worried at all about nicotine level. I think we get far less nicotine vaping than we think we do. Someone posted their blood tests chain vaping 36 and it bears that out.

I do have some 30 around when I need something stronger but seem to lose my voice if I vape it too often. Tastes the same though.

I was a PAD smoker and started at 24mg. I tried to go to 18 but I kept having cravings. I went back to 24mg and have been smoke free for over a year.

 

[swedishfish]

I vape like an idiot if my nic is too low. So what's the point of lowering it?

 

[robocig]

I think it really depends, I was a half-PAD smoker, but I found that 36mg is super-satisfying for me. That said, I'll vape anywhere between 18-36, depending on the juice.

 

[Beans]

I vape like an Idiot regardless of my nic level. I started at 24mg around 10-12 mils a day. YES STUPID I know. Made myself sick many times. Now I'm vaping between 10-18mg and brought my vaping down to 7-9 mls a day. My goal is to get to 5mg and 2-5 mls a day.

I don't know if it's stupid, apparently it's what you needed to keep you off cigs.

 

[db13berry]

12 or 6 mg. Mostly 6mg. Sometimes 0mg.

Thanks, every one normally acts like I committed a crime when I admit to what I vape. But heck I smoked for 27 years, of course it's hard to quit.

It's so funny to me that people get so freaked out about nicotine levels. Hello. We were all smoking cigarettes, it's not like we're new to the stuff or our system can't take it. I read on the board somewhere that we probably get about 10% of the nicotine in the juice. Yea, you can probably vape too much and make yourself sick. But I think you have a better chance of doing that smoking cigarettes than vaping.

 

[VapingRulz]

I think it's far better to vape @ 24mg than it is to pick up a cigarette. I refuse to stress myself out over my preferred nicotine level. I'm keeping my eye on the prize...
