What's the highest recommended mg of nic per 10 mg for sub ohm vaping?

[rammstein]

I'm used to using 48 mg's of nicotine. per 10 ml (mostly vg) when given 4.3 volts on a 1.6 ohm coil. I came into possession of a pretty wicked sub-ohm battery free of charge so I want to give it a shot. (I already did the required electrical safety research) I know this is above the norm and I've read that most sub ohm vapor's prefer 7 mg of nicotine per 10 ml or less, but given my higher expectations what should I try?

Try 12mg or 16mg liquids, just a couple small bottles. If it's too much on your new gear, you can always step on it with some VG until it feels right. Then you'll know what to get next time.

What are you asking whether it's ok to sub ohm 48 mg / ml nic or what nic level would be best to buy in a pre made juice ?

What is 10 mg ?

 

[mcclintock]

He uses ml in the text. But we don't use mg "per 10 ml" we use mg per ml, which is roughly equal to 1/10th as many %, ignoring a tiny volume vs. weight difference. 48 mg per 10 ml would be simply 4.8 mg/ml or 0.48%. The difference between mg/ml and % causes enough confusion...

Higher output vapers usually use 6, 3 or even 1.5 mg/ml . Most manufacturers don't offer e-juice above 24 mg/ml but there are a few exceptions.

nce. 48 mg per 10 ml would be simply 4.8 mg/ml or 0.48%.

Shouldn't that be 4.8%?

 

[mcclintock]

No. 4.8 mg/ml ~= .48% ... but the OP (presumably) was multiplying the ml by 10, i.e. 48 mg/10ml = 48/10 mg/ml = 4.8

1 ml of water weighs 1 gram. 10 mg water compared to 1 ml is 1%.

It's pretty safe to assume OP is vaping 48mg/mL nicotine, given his concerns about dropping too low on his new gear. I deduced that he buys it in 10mL bottles. Also, I don't know where you'd buy 4.8mg/mL liquid, so I quickly dismissed that notion.

Sub ohm vaping, at least with drippers, is possibly the fastest way to get off nicotine almost entirely. Especially if you lean more towards flavor chasing, which tends to expose the rank background flavor of the nicotine. My first two days of dripping had me drop from 14mg to 3mg and I never missed it.

I vape 12mg at sub ohm levels daily, that's down from my previous 18-24mg. My builds are usually around 0.7ohm though, and single coil. "sub ohm" is a fairly wide range. Pick up some VG to cut whatever juices you buy and then you can experiment. You could even cut the 48mg you have down to 24mg, and then cut that further down if you wanted to, though the flavor won't be nearly as strong, which is sometimes a good thing.

 

[rammstein]

I was uding 78mg per 10ml bottles but am going don't know if that would be wise for sub-ohm vaping. From what I've read it would not be in the slightest.

 

[mcclintock]

^^-- Are you making this yourself? Otherwise, never heard of such odd nicotine numbers, at any rate anything or anybody you compare it with will be in common density units such as % or mg/ml (you are using mg/cl -- milligrams per centiliter).

Are you adding .78 ml of 100 mg/ml nic to make 10 ml of eliquid? That would be 7.8 mg/ml .

Maybe I'm strange, but I've never seen nicotine not improve the flavor, although throat hit may be too much at high levels.
