My personal favorite menthol ever is Ice Ice from vape Dudes. It's a menthol/peppermint combo... very nice and cool with a good TH at 11 nicotine. They also have fruity menthol mixes (strawberry ice, lemon ice, etc.) but I've so stuck on ice ice that I haven't bothered trying the others yet. Some day. lol

Thanks Kayte I'll try them out :)

Another way to get TH is via high PG to VG ratio. Of course if you're already at PG80:VG20 or above, that isn't helpful. The most important thing is not to go back to smoking. If you DO get moments like that, I'd suggest a higher nicotine level in your favorite juice, to be used only for those must light up a cigarette moments. Otherwise, nicotine at reasonable levels will do no harm. Just reduce as you go when you're good and ready.

Thats exactly my issue. I dont need the Nic as much as I like to feel the TH but I've found that in a lot of cases as far as the juice is concerned that without the higher levels of nic that TH I desire just isnt strong enough. It seems however that whatever I vape between 16-24, that has MENTHOL in it, I get a satisfying TH regardless so maybe I can go down and stick with the 16mg but just make sure whatever juice I get is a good quality menthol with good flavor and vapor. I was a Marlboro Lights smoker on analogs but with vapor I really like anything with menthol. Yeah the 24 makes my heart to racey and I dont like that feeling. Can anyone recommend a good menthol or even fruity menthol that has has a nice TH with nic in the mid to lower teens? I hear that Juicy Vapors Ecto Chill is pretty good anyone ever try that? Or what about some good ones from HHV, AIVL or Ahlusion?

Im different than most of you here because I started vaping to quit dipping. I never smoked cigarettes accept sometimes when I was out drinking with friends. The first time I vaped someone suggested that I start with 18 mg and wow that was horrible (don't even want to think about what 24mg would be like). The throat hit was way too intense. I couldn't even taste the juice I was vaping I could just feel the nic burning my nose. After that I ordered some 12mg and 6mg. The 12mg gives me plenty of TH maybe just a little too much but the 6mg is to weak to satisfy my nic cravings. So currently I am vaping 12mg the majority of the time and I am happy with it.

Normally I stick between 12 and 18 mg.

Just got a 30ml bottle of wyatt earp in today. I took one vape off it and my face almost exploded. The bottle was 30mg and I didn't even check it prior :p I dunno HOW I ordered 30 mg but luckily i had plenty of vg and pg in the house to cut it down to 15 mg, MUCH better and surprisingly it didn't destroy the flavor.

protip:

Check your new bottle nic levels or it may explode your face.

I started with 24mg, dropped to 18mg after a few months and just recently dropped to 12mg.
The 12mg is ok nicotine wise but I think I need to do what Hulamoon is talking about because my current 60/40 it's a little too lite throat hit and taste for me now.
I was smoking full pg up until a few months ago and might go back since I've dropped the nic level this low.

Just thought I'd let you know how I order mine. 11mg nic, extra flavor and 50/50 pg/vg. Makes for good vapor, great flavor and I can chain vape it without getting wobbly, but I do need to switch to higher nic after a bit. :D (You can get it in 16 as well.) If you haven't bought from them before, there's a first time coupon code for 40% off. (You'll see it when you check out.) Anyway, hope you like it, however you choose to try it. :)

Started at 24 and have gradually moved down by mixing 2 strengths of the same flavor or alternating 1 vape higher, 1 vape lower. I'm now down to 6mg working in 3 mg. Gradually going down, gets you adjusted more easily with flavor and throat hit. Throat hit depends on the flavor and flavor strength, too.

Vape Dudes has been having a slow down issue and my understanding is that they are closing to new orders for a few days to get caught up,,,,

I do agree that they are wonderful, however, so check out the delivery time before you order,,,,,,

we love Ice Ice here,,,,,,,but we get it regular flavor,,,,,,,,,extra flavor blows our heads off :lol: it's some strong stuff.

I vape 11mg's. I tried 18, it was too much, cut it 50/50 with 0 and yeah at the end of the day I was getting pretty snippy. So at the moment 11 works well for me. I am come to the conclusion that by the time I fine the perfect flavor and combination I will be ready to cut that down even more. lol

what is a 2 hour jag of vaping bonedark? I've posted this a lot lately but I cant say it enough to hopefully help new vapers... many people mistake nicotine overdose, for nicotine withdrawal. I fell into that trap early on. I began vaping alongside 2mg gum. I was vaping 18 to 24 milligram juices with a 2mg piece of gum when I wasn't vaping, thinking it would HELP ease off the withdrawal. a wise man posted a link to a website discussing how nicotine withdrawal can replicate nicotine overdose. they often feel the exact same way. so, some of you that thought you were withdrawing when using 24mg juices, or 18mg juices, or chain vaping 12 or 18mg juices... you may have actually be overdosing yourself. Now, you think the "withdrawal" is gone, because you've gotten used to the "lower" dose of nicotine, when in reality, your now used to a higher dose of nicotine. Just my :2c: to keep in mind.
