Well, this is the icing on the cake. You still smoke a pack a day, have a financial stake in selling PV's/eliquid, tell people not to bump up the nicotine to a level they may need to quit smoking and bash companies that sell liquid at 36mg.
You have a serious crediablity issue. The 30-40 of us on this thread who accurately challenged your poor advice, need to insure that some newbie, at least on ECF, doesn't fail at transitioning to vaping due to reading one of your posts. Still smokes a pack a day, but it's not an "addiction issue", geesh.
Good Lord. We aren't on methadone. We're a bunch of smokers trying not to smoke. And most people here aren't a bunch of kids that are new to this whole 'smoking thing'. I think I read the average age here is 40-50's. Lets not over complicate this whole thing. You need enough nicotine to prevent you from smoking. Most people reduce their level automatically when they're off cigarettes but you have to get off cigarettes first. How much you need to do that is an individual thing. It's really no more complex than that. If you didn't OD when you smoked it's doubtful that you will vaping.
It has everything to do with it. You smoke because you like it. How does that make you superior to those of us who don't? You aren't you know, only delusional.
And as far as your last post..to each each his own? Take your own advice. Bit hypocritical that...it's ok when it's your own, but not when it's anyone else's.
If anyone, in particular anyone new, is reading this poster's nonsense and taking it as gospel, walk away. Better still, go hunt down this thread...
Utterly moronic things people believe about PVs.
This whole thread has sent me into fits of laughter.
I really do agree that the Pig has got to get off the analogues .
We all loved and enjoyed smoking and for many they'll do it right up until they die , He's fooling himself if he thinks low nic cigs are any better for him than high strength and if its not the addiction keeping you on ,You should stop or at least cut down to a reasonable level say 5 per day.
Almost everyone starting e cigs knows that nicotine is dangerous and I appreciate his warning ,
In fact without him I would not have learned so much about the whole issue so thank you earthpig.
This thread has more than answered my questions regarding mg strength with special thanks to wv2win.
Is their a quick and easy way to cut a pre mixed flavored juice, from lets say 36mg to 24mg?
Just found, and read through, this thread. All I can say is WOW! Earthpig is really something. I personally don't allow people of this sort into my home any longer. Life is too short to argue with someone like that.
I vape 36mg almost exclusively. My all day vape is currently Vapor Station's Frisco at 35mg. I love nearly all the VS juice. 36 is the only thing keeping me off the analogs that I smoked for more than 32 years.
Buy a bottle of the same juice but with zero nicotine in it. If you add anything with no flavoring it will dilute the flavor as well as lower the nicotine level.
It's a little more than that. He's telling people on here that their nicotine level is dangerous and not to vape certain levels because it's dangerous even when the person isn't satisfied with their nicotine level. And he knows this because he sells them and he has experience with them. Giving his opinion a little more weight than the average poster. Then he happens to mention in passing that he's still smoking a pack a day. Don't you think that might enter into the equasion a little bit?
Ok, I've heard enough bash.
No one has addressed anything medical except that they like to vape at high levels of nic.
No one has addressed or been able to dispute:
Vascular constriction issues as related to...
Hi blood pressure issues and effects
Heart issues
to name a few...
.....and how high levels of nicotine OR a stimulant works with those scenario's .
All I've heard is "I do it, so it's safe and hasn't hurt me (yet), so others are able to as well."
When true evidence gets presented, I'll take the critique serious. otherwise I go by what I have witnessed, and consider the sources.
