Yup.... of corse... I told both that If they didn't order the higher nic, I will do it for them!
They'll do it... they both want to quit really bad! I'll just have to hold there hands and guide them
Had to do just that in the past and all went wellI hate it when friends I have known for years are struggling the analogs. It's almost as hard to get them to convert then it was for me to convert sometimes
I ordered the Sweet Sampler at 12mg, worried it wasn't going to be strong enough lol. WOW! I was pleasantly surprised. Good throat hit on all flavors and never in a million years would I say that I liked vaping watermelon and grape. LOL But those 2 are my fav from that pack.
I noticed the carto just says Grape. But on the website there is a Classic Grape and a new grape. Which one did I get? lol
I was also looking at just buying the filled cartos and not worry about filling and topping off. But I noticed that on most of the cartos in the sampler pack were only half filled?? Like when you take the cap off and look inside.... only have the filler is wet/colored. That kinda worries me. Not knowing how long they will last now. I guess I guess just get the watermelon juice.... but is the flavor gonna be the same? same throat hit?
I would like to go to 6mg on the nic and eventually maybe 0mg.

Stacey, I think the Sweet Sampler pack now includes the "Classic Grape" (there was so much clamor for it when it was replaced by "New Grape" last year, that SI returned it to inventory and I think put it back in the Sampler. (They're both good. Most people still prefer the Classic. Kind of like with Coke - heh!)
It's always a good idea to have juice to match your cartos -- especially if the cartos are now coming in a little "dried out" (contents settled due to age). Topping off is really so easy -- and in the very short run (to say nothing of the long run!) it will save you a TON of money.
Oh and yes, 12mg juice will provide the same flavor and TH as the 12mg prefilleds; 6mgs of either should have about the same flavor, but less TH.

the cartos are machine filled so they should have the correct amount..you may just want to shake them a bit as star said
Also new grape is in the sweet sampler...classic grape is in the strong sampler with the menthol

Oops! Sorry, I got it exactly wrong --
-- I should know by now not to rely on my fuzzy memory! 
I'm using 6 mg strength now. I started with 12 mg, but because I had just started vaping and it tastes so good, I was overdosing on nicotine! LOL So 6 mg seems to be working just fine for me. That way I can vape my face off and not make myself ill.
LOL Poppie...... Thats my problem now. Watermelon from SI tastes like a jolly rancher and I overdosing on nic. LOL
I was glad today that I DO have the 6 mg! I accidentally got juice in my mouth earlier. Even at the low dose I got a little shaky for a while there. I'm fine now. If that had been 24 mg. I would have been in trouble!! I'm sensitive to caffeine and nicotine.
Because I was able to go to 6 mg. directly after quitting analogs I assume that I'm not as addicted to nicotine and I am to the hand-to-mouth and puffing motions. I'm thinking of switching to some 0 mg and see how that goes for a while. If need be, I can always go back to the 6 mg.

I went 0mg on banana that I got from ECBlends and I still go for it at least a few times a day. I love the flavor, but love that I can vape my head off with no nic. lol I am gonna have to do that with the SI watermelon, I can already tell. I have been shaky feelin all day. I finally had to put it away. No more today.
I just did something stupid and ordered some 24mg cartos. I reduced to 18 over a month ago and just feel like I am vaping too much. I needed 24 to quit the cigs and it was almost painless. I go out with the smokers at work and find myself taking 15 to 20 hits to feel satisfied and they are already going in and here I am still puffing. I have a 25 to 30 minute drive to work and I vape the entire time, both ways. Sigh. I did the math and 18 mg should be perfect, coming from 15 cigs a day marlboro special blend lights. Guess Ill stick with the 24s and see if I can at least get back to where I was. I am guessing my absorption rate is 50% at best. Hate to be the guy that though - increasing the nic. The though it I can get the same nic and not have to vape as much.
You have to trick your brain, so to speak. If you try to get the same satisfaction from vaping that you got from smoking, you will be let down every time. Vaping is a healthier alternative to smoking. Let it be just vaping. Not vaping to quit smoking. Or at least that is what I had to do. Its only been 2 months (almost) for me and every time that craving hits, which is fewer and fewer in between, I just tell myself I wanna vape. I tried to do the tobacco, look alike cigs and found they were all disappointing. e-cigs are not analogs, not even by a long shot. When I stopped trying to compare the two is when I was successful in quitting. Or at least I tricked my brain into thinking that. lol
I've been vaping for over a year now, but sometimes I still get the cravings. Just the other day the thought popped into my head... I want a cigarette, a cigarette would hit the spot right now... This time I just let the thought pass and got busy with something else and a few minutes later no more craving. And those times that I caved in I found that nasty, dirty taste really did not hit the spot, it was gross.

I more or less started with 12mg (this doesn't count the 24mg, horrible, ugly disposables I bought to tide me over until my first kit arrived). I still vape 12mg during the work day, but on weekends and more relaxed hours I vape 6mg. Then during late evening and before bed, I switch to sweet 0mg, first to curb the after-dinner munchies while on the computer or watching movies, and second to not have as much nicotine in my system at bedtime. Once in a while I still wake up restless in the middle of the night, so I'll come out to the computer and sip a cup of caffeine-free green tea and vape 0mg while checking messages and then wander back to bed after 20 min.
I'm happy with this setup at the moment. Eventually, I'll drop it all down to 0mg, and probably vape for some time before/if I decide to cease the motions all together.

LOL.. I don't get the shakes at all and all my juices are at 2.4% hehe.. I tend to get watermelon juice in my mouth.. some 555.. some cinnabomb.. some not so tasty well in the non vape form Virginia Menthol.. lol.. doesn't phase me.. hehe. That could be a bad thing.. LOL
Yeah, I am actually worried my tolerance for nic is going up at this point, I originally ordered 1.2 and 1.8 and was fine, but now I am chain vaping 2.4 and the 1.2's just sorta annoy me.
Happy not smoking though, so don't get me wrong.
