Luckily on Texas, you can get everclear.. I will also use vodka.. I put my attys/cartos in a flavor injector syringe..(for turkey and such) and pull and plunge with the spirits.. Shooting an sucking the alcohol into/out of a clean cup..Then do the same
with distilled water, blow out excess, and put them in the oven on 175 for 30 - 45 minutes.. Then air dry over night, and they are vapable first thing in the a.m.

Since starting vaping 6 weeks ago, it's been all 24mg juice that I purchased originally and I have a bottle of 30mg which is just too strong. My heart has been racing a bit at times. As well I quit smoking cigarettes so I did'nt know if that was maybe from quitting. After I finish these 24 mg juices, I will go to a lower nicmg. Freedom smoke told me to go down 2 mg at a time but I think I can handle 5mg decreases now. Thanks I was wondering what was going on. I vape at night before retiring. If my heart starts acting up I just lay it down and it usually goes away after several minutes. In a nutshell however, I feel 100 times better than when I was smoking analogs and I sleep like a baby. I had almost forgotten what that was like. TC

One night I got a mouth full of juice

This used to happen to me everyday pretty much until i got a drip tip. Idk if you have one or not but they are life savers. Everytime i refill i put the drip tip on and take a light toot on it without hitting the button making sure i haven't overfilled (you will hear a slurpy non smooth sound when it's overflowing). Since i've used the drip tip i haven't gotten any juice in my mouth!

Ego-fan: me, too. I think one factor is wattage; more watts means more juice being vaporized per puff means more nicotine per puff.

We could warn people who are moving from low-wattage beginner setups to better rigs that they might want to start with low-nic juices for that reason. I sure would have appreciated it myself.

Good point. I can easily chain vape 16-18 mg juice with an eGo-C SR atty with no problems but got a serious nic rush and was so dizzy that I had to lay down after just a few puffs when I tried Boge LR cartos after reading all of the enthusiastic recommendations about them. The vapor was also way hotter than I am now used to and frankly was a harsh and unpleasant experience for me. I learned from that little experiment that a higher wattage setup would in fact not be "better" for me and am really glad I didn't go with the usual strongly recommended Kgo/Boge LR carto combo or similar setup because I'm really not sure I would have been able to quit my 45-year 1-2 pad habit with a setup that produces what for me is a very harsh vape. I would like to see people slow down a bit and ask what people who are looking for help in choosing a system actually like in terms of vapor temperature, throat and lung hit, etc. so they can tailor their suggestions to what the person is actually looking for instead of just assuming that higher wattage necessarily equals "better" for everyone.
