I've voted 24mg, mainly because that is the strength I'm buying from the cheapest supplier I've come across. However, I'm thinking maybe I should have voted 36mg as I would prefer to buy that at a good price & then cut it.
24mg...
Because I wlll mix with VG and flavours, so that I can achieve 16-20mgs without losing much of the original flavour...

According to the FDA, one has to consume 5 mg a day of nicotine to become addicted to the substance. I used Carlton where one cigarette had .1mg of nicotine in it so I would have had to smoke 50 cigs a day to get addicted to nicotine and I was only doing 30 or 3mg a day--that is why contend that there are other addictive ingredients in cigarettes that we are unaware of.

I agree with Sun about the extra chemicals. 4000+, is it? I think so. Anyway, I think my withdrawl from all of those other chemicals had much more of a profound impact on my body and mind than the absence of Nicotine ever would have. That's why all of my other attempts to quit using traditional NRT's always ended in complete failure. The reason (IMO) the e-cig seems to work where everything else I have tried would fail is because it does a much better job at giving my mind what it is expecting. It makes me feel like I'm still smoking. With everything else, all I could think about was the fact that I"M NOT SMOKING. With the e-cig, it's like having your cake & eating it too. It's like cheating yourself into letting go of tobacco. It is so completely cool that way. Ban or no ban, I will keep my e-cig! Let them try and take it away. Oh, by the way, I get the 36 mg all of the time. I still need it right now.

Ideally you'd be able to buy 150mg strength, that way you could dilute it with glycerin 1 part eliquid and 9 parts glycerin and save a boatload o' cash.
So I'd go for 36mg if I weren't looking to cut out nicotine, that way you can mix it with more glycerin and save more bread.

what about 4mg and 16mg?
I didn't get to vote because I use only 4mg
Nobody wants me to vote.....nobody loves me
wow, i didn;t know there was so many 36mg vapers. I wonder how many of them actually vape the 36mg neat, and not cut it.
I buy 36mg and cut it to around 12 mg with glycerine bp - mailnly to keep the cost down - if a 50 or 72mg was available I'd be able to save even more............
I'm using TW menthol in 20mil bottles most of the time.

If you didn't have this forum, would you know about cutting liquid etc?
It seems most useres of the 36mg are cutting, as a result of the infomation of this forum. What do you think?

I vape straight 36... sometimes go as low as 24, and I've never cut it. I'm probably more hooked now than I was on analogs. 
If it wasn't for this forum, I think I'd probably know diddly about e-cigs and would probably be back on analogues by now - I've learned so much here and I really missed it when SJ was having the problems a few weeks ago...........
^ ditto - if it wasnt for here, I wouldnt know squat about e-cigs. Thank you SmokeyJoe and everyone else that works so hard to keep this place running! (as an admin for another forum I know it's not always an easy task, so it's very appreciated) And a thank you to all the members that keep this place active and full of information
I heard that the 36mg was a bit strong but figured I'd try it out anyway. I use it much more regularly than the other strengths I have and have found that it's actually still weaker than traditional cigarettes. I accidentally left my juice at home when I went to the bar the other night and was forced to smoke for real or go without nicotine. I was fairly surprised that I didn't really enjoy the real cigarette anymore. It tasted bad and made my lungs feel fatigued before long :/
I cut the 36 but I cut it to different strengths and on rare occasion I might drip straight 36. Most of the time I'm probably vaping about 18 mg. But mostly I like having total control. If I want some 24, I can do that. If I want some 12, I can do that too. Saves me having to buy a bunch of different strengths and keeping up with all the bottles.
Most times i'll use 18mg.
Since i have now found a local supply of VG i'm going to be ordering 24mg or 36mg depending where i order from, and cutting my stuff down to around 12mg.
Then hopefully even further still with the intent to get to a 0 level eventually.
