anywhere between 0 and 24.

Sometimes I add a drop of 24 into my dripper;

meanwhile I have a 100ml bottle of 0, and a 100ml of somewhere between 3 and 6
some combination of those two ends up in by squeezy dripper bottle which is what goes into the dripper.

When filling a tank, I pour direct from the 100ml bottle.

6 and 0.. I think I have vape adhd.. I have 7 tanks that I use throughout the day. 6mg cappuccino when I wake up, with my coffee. Then I smoke some space jam green apple 0mg and then I switch to some 6mg skittles and and then to a 0mg..and back to a 6.. I try to take 4 or 5 hits on nic and then switch to 0 if I feel like continuing for a while.

18mg at first coffee, 12mg for day, and 6mg in the evening when I am in front of the TV. Sometimes I mix, but I am a 12ish person.

What mod do you use?

I am asking because I just recently got a mod and the majority of my liquids are 24 and 36. I do have a couple of 18 along with a couple of 6mg's that I got when I got my mod.

Although I plan of giving most of the 36 away.. I was wondering if I could somehow use the others if I mix them with the 6?
If so what ratio would I mix it?

When using a variety of setups, the number to look at is millgrams times watts.

24mg x 5 watts = 120 mg-watts
6mg x 20 = 120 mg-watts

If you vape 24mg on a 5 watt ego setup, it's equivalent to vaping 6mg on a 20 watt coil.

Thank you everyone for your replies...

Edyle, this is going to be a dumb question but how do I know what watt I have? (please be kind and remember that I am totally new to mods)
Thanks!!

All the common regulated mods: istick, mvp, vamo, svd, e-lvt, etc will show you the watts.

If you are still using an ego setup, then you're vaping in the 5 watt range.

If you are using a mech mod, and you're inexperienced, then you should get yourself a proper regulated mod; that will end up answering a lot of the questions you would have in future faster.

I've seen this posted before but I just don't get it. What is the science behind it? What I don't get it if I make my own juice with a 12mg nic base and make it down to 2mg nic. Then assuming a fresh battery(4.2volts) on my current coil of 0.4 ohms I would get around 44 watts.

So then 2mg x 44 watts = 88 mg-watts

and what I see when I look at that number is that it suggests 88 mg of nic per 44 watts. I stated too that I made it from a nic base of 12 mg so how do I then get 76 extra mg of nic. To me, the formula looks like it creates extra nicotine some how.

Personally I think it would have to do with the cylindrical volume of the coil wick and the concentration of nicotine in the wick instead of the whole liquid.

I have the SMPL with a Dark horse RDA.

Your completely new to mods and have a mech with a hybrid top cap and an RDA? Umm...why? Anyway the watts your pushing depend on the resistance of the coil and how fresh the battery is. What ohms are you vapeing at. And please, please tell me your using Samsung 25rs, Sonys or LG HE2s? I cant see why a new vaper would be using a mech and an RDA. I see it a lot now n days and it makes my blood boil. Im not trying to be mean but its kind of like learning to drive in a race car. You gotta get all the basics down first. I used Egos and evods then a Vamo then about two years in I started on high powered regulated boxes and a year latter got my first mech. What batteries you using is the most important thing here and the resistance your vapeing at.

88 mg-watts means, if you vape at:

88 watts, you need 1 mg/ml nic
44 watts, you need 2 mg/ml nic
22 watts, you need 4 mg/ml nic
11 watts, you need 8 mg/ml nic

88 mg-watts does not mean mg per anything; it means milligrams multiplied by watts.

okay I'm starting to see now, next question where does this come from? The math that is.
