I have wanted to try a higher nic salt like those used in a pod but really cant love the idea of another line of stuffs in my collection yet. Is there some reason i cant just use a triton with a 1.8 coil? Or even the subtank mini with rba and 1.6 coil and smallest air flow hole? I may end up with one i guess IF i find some crazy deal on one that has an rba but i dont think that is going to happen :lol: I feel like i never get enough nic,i use 6mg in subs and 12mg in mtl, sooo thinking i need to up it buuuut,do i really need a pod to do this o_O

I use nic salts in all my rta's. You dont need a pod or special tank etc.

edited to add I dont use nic salts only or just use it in mtl rta's.
I mainly vape DL and use freebase but the same rta I use FB in I will use NS in also
I only know you have to be careful how much you take in (nic) and it seems most only use high mgs in these pods. I may just pick up something and give it a shot

nope you can use regular or salt nic in both pod systems and tanks, rdas, ect....
the only thing to not do is to sub-ohm a high salt nic (or even regular nic) as you'll make yourself sick
Thats what i was thinking,now to find a higher nic but not heart attack high lol

The warning "not for sub-ohm use" only applies to nic in high concentration. You can use protonated "salt nic" anywhere you can use traditional freebase. You can also dilute, say, 30mL of strongly flavored 30mg off-the-shelf juice with 75mL of PG and 75mL of VG to get a nice 6mg sub-ohm juice.

lol you're going to lose a lot of flavor that way though.... you'd be best to mix 30ml of 30mg with 30ml of 0mg of the same juice making it 60ml of 15mg without losing flavor

you could do the math to make it lower, but :p i'm not doing the math hehehe

I only use 2-3mg.
I did try a higher dosage in a friends mtl device, about 24mg. For a while afterwards I still felt like having a vape but couldnt because I was too nic'd up. I had to wait a while for the sensation to go away so I could get back to it.

the higher nic is for just taking a hit or two, not for chain vaping
lmfao when I started vaping though I was well over 40mg and that was before nic salts :p
and your alive? LOL that just scarey to me but i worry alot anyway.

I smoked cloves and cigars....and a lot daily....so I needed the extremely high nic to convert to vaping....
lol that was about 6 years ago, I managed to drop down to 24 after maybe 6 months and then 12... now I'm between 0 - 3

Well that's entirely the point :D! I find that sub-ohm juice benefits from less flavor since I consume so much more of it. But I understand that's a personal thing. Also personal: paying good money for zero nic juice just feels wrong lol

hehehe that's why i've decided i'm not buying premade juice anymore.... I was going from 3 to 0 like why am I paying for 0? and this way I can do my 1mg instead
