You put it down when you go to sleep.

No really... I think most everyone chain vapes as long as they are allowed to. If Im not working, I have a PV in my hand. Which is actually another cool thing about vaping vs. smoking - once I switched, my day wasnt defined by how many cigarettes I could smoke, or when my next smoke break was. So, while I can chain vape all day... it doesnt bother me if I cant, and I dont get grouchy every 2 hours if I havent had a smoke.

As others have said, if you arent feeling weird then your nic level isnt too high. You could try upping it, but I would say you're probably fine.
This post for the win.

If you are really worried about the nic levels you are getting, it's pretty easy to figure out. Just google your former brand + "nicotine". Typically it will be .9-1. So if you smoked ~ 1 pack/day your level was ~20 mg (not accounting for waste). Adjust your juice accordingly.

Reading many posts, I haven't seen many people trying to quit nicotine, they are trying to quit smoking for all the other 'stuff' in processed tobacco.

In short, as n00b, I'm way less concerned about the nicotine levels I'm getting (which are probably on par), and more concerned with what I'm not ingesting. One battle at a time. Worry about not wanting a analog, before worrying the nicotine.

Best of luck.

I had a question if I could ..... I have the 12mg carts, and ordered on juice from JC, thinking I could add some 0mg juice to change the flavor, and dilute them a bit if I needed. If I add some, or vape the carts a bit then add some, do you think it would work ok, or do I need to "spin" the carts like the video showed when you load them? I have Blu carts, so I don't have the cool plactic cap to "push" the juice in, so I was going to pop the cover off and just drip a bit in.
I suppose it will be a bit of trial and error ....

I know that you spin cartomizers but don't think you need to do that with carts. Are you vaping the plastic carts with filler or cartomizers with the atomizer at the bottom? This makes a huge difference. If you haven't gotten cartomizers order them immediately IMHO. They make a huge difference in the quality of vaping.

Adding some 0nic will dillute them. I have used the kr808-d since day one, and I dont "spin" anything. If you have the hard tipped carto's, you can still get them off and drip directly into the filler, or drip into the batt end... doing that will suck the juice right in. I have found that dripping into the filler is better in that you can soak the filler evenly, and thus, it gives better results.

I used to use a little eyeglass screwdriver for the hard tips. Stick it in and pull gently (boy that didnt sound good :lol: )

Anyway, I dont spin the carts. Thats my point. I might give them a gentle roll to distribute the juice, but thats about it.

Good luck finding your sweet spot. I vaped more when I first started. I'm 5 weeks into it and have not touched a smoke in that time. I now vape less and soon plan to start reducing my nic :/ don't stress too much in the beginning every real cig not smoked is the real winner here.
