What mg Nic do you vape at ?

[sdep]

Ordered some 100 % VG - 36 mg Nic from Wizard and I plan on vaping it at around 28-32 mg after dilution, doing this to reduce the number of Puffs ( vape less ) and still get the level of Nic in my bloodstream that satisfies the need.

anyone do this or are there better alternatives ?

... I feel like I'm not getting enough Nic in me ( compared to a cigarette )


I Currently Use :

MVP V2
Pro tank 2
24 mg of 100% VG , No flavoring
very small amount of water
At 7.5 Watts
* Ave about 340-400 puffs per day


Thanks !

I Vape at 18, down the road 16 as I get into DIY.

 

[jchamb2]

I usually mix mine for 16mg nicotine.

I started with 24 and it didn't hit the spot I needed so I went to 36mg and that worked .
Slowly went down from there now down to 8mg I may hit the vaporizer more for a week or two then I slow down .
Take your time getting there you didn't get hooked in a day so getting off May take more then a day.

I currently vape at 12mg or less.
I found with building coils and using an RDA like a trident that I get such a good amount of vapor I don't need a high amount of nic.
When I started to rebuild coils I was using 18mg nic and I started to get a tight pain in my chest. So I dropped the nic levels and all is good

Started with and still use 24 mg for my DIY, which is mainly for nicotine delivery while I'm doing other things. But I buy the few commercial juices I have for "treats" in 18 mg and vape them more heavily than I do 24 mg.

RN4081 & M401 cigalike: 12 to 24mg.
SS CE2: 8 to 12mg.
Single coil RBA: 0 to 8mg.
Dual coil RBA cloud chaser: 0 mg only.

I started at 18 mg. But I'm currently at 12. I'm not feeling like I'm getting what I need to fulfil my needs.

It is surprising that many people start at a higher Nic level and taper down, I kinda thought that most would find their ideal Nic level and stay with it.

At 24 mg I am still feeling like I am NOT getting enough Nic , which is why I am going to the 36 mg

When I quite smoking I started at 24mg and would supplement that with 30mg. As my body got accustom to not smoking, that high of a nicotine content started to get real harsh on my throat so I cut down to 75pg/25vg/18mg then noticed after a while the harshness started creeping back so I switched to 50/50/18mg. Now a few months later I'm seeing some harshness again so I think I'm ready for 50/50/12mg.

So if your a recent ex-smoker I think you will see the same thing happening which is actually a good thing.

My suggestion is stay with the 24mg and mix a small batch of 36 and use that very moderitly and only when you have bad cravings and stay with the 24mg as the main vape.

When I first started vaping supplementing 30mg I was completely off cigarettes within 2 weeks

billowing clouds at 36mg. just not chain vaping like i did smoking. still rather new. hoping to reduce nic a little at some point. just not at the cost of increasing time wasted with one hand useless.

one benefit to stinkies. they did cradle in the mouth easily freeing up the hands... at least when they weren't burning the eyes.

 

[Iffy]

Vaping for 31 months...

24mg first three weeks
18 for a year
15 ever since

Tried 12mg early this year and didn't get da 'lung fill'. Might give it another try soon. I'll definitely keep some 15mg around just in case.

BTW, smokin' history in sig line...

I vape between 3mg and 6mg depending on device/atomizer. 6mg for tank atomizers and 3mg for the dual coil drippers.

Way back in 2010 I started with 36mg and have been moving down ever since. Personally I wasn't trying to ween off, it just got to a point where my current nic level was almost too much (random nic sickness, throat irritation, etc.) so I'd drop a level and all was good.

As Harlen put it, you didn't get hooked in a day! I've been at it for years

haven't thought of that since it last happened ... I sure don't miss that burning watery eye feeling.

As for nicotine level ... I quickly dropped down to 12mg within a week and am doing just fine staying off smokes

 

[gotch23]

I'm at 12 mg, vaping mostly Kayfun-style RBAs.

Would i still be doing carto-tanks and stuff i'd be at 18 mg.

For my pinoy-RDA, a Trident V2, i mix at 6 mg

 

[Anjaffm]

18 mg
I started out with 18 mg two years ago, and I have remained at 18 mg.
15 or 16 is ok too, if I buy a liquid that does not come in 18. But mostly I make my own liquids, I just buy some as a treat sometimes, such as "apple cider" (yummy)

I do consume less liquid now than when I started out.
Oh and I use ready-made atomizers. I heard that people who make their own coils often use less nicotine.

Lung fill or throat hit was always a problem with reducing NIC. Also going form 15 to 12 is a big difference when it comes to throat hit. I found what helps in compensating is to use a higher PG content when lowering NIC and what may also help is using a small amount of koolata. As Koolata is a tasteless cooling agent the coolness can mimic throat and lung hit without introducing the unwanted taste of menthol, peppermint or any other minty taste.

me either ... or the blinding at the very moment i'm putting a hot or high speed tool to it's application at that very critical point.

 

[cookiebun]

I started at 18. In 5 months I was down to 0. That was 2 years ago.

 

[sdep]

So you vape but with NO Nic ? Wow, it never even crossed my mind to do that, I think when I get to that point it would just be time to stop vaping. or maybe it is a good thing to continue, that is too far in the future yet for me to think of that.
