All my mixes are made to 24mg.
I would like to try some 36mg, but rather than make up new juices, I would like to up some of my present e-juice mixes to 36mg.
I know this might sound weird, but if I take say 10ml of each of my 24mg mixes and make up another 10ml of each flavour but in a higher strength, what strength would I need to make so that when each flavour when mixed, would give me 20ml of 36mg juice?

(10ml @ 24mg/ml)+(10ml @ 48mg/ml) = 20ml @ 36mg/ml

should be fine adding another 10ml of 48mg 48+24 = 72 72/2 = 36

Remember to let us know how you find the change/experimentation from 24mg/ml to 36mg/ml.

I guess now that I am getting used to vaping, I am becoming a bit more aware of the effects of it and 24mg is just not quite cutting it for me. Still a bit irritable, just the way I used to be when trying to stop smoking but on NRT.
Reading others reactions to vaping and what they experienced, a higher nic level seems the way to go, afterall, I used to smoke 40 or 45 a day.
I have a couple of 30mg shop bought e-juices and they are okay, but they are not the type of juices I could vape all day. So these ones that I am upping the levels on, are some of my all day mixes. I will let them steep for a few days and then give them a whirl.
So if you hear that they have found a Whirling Dervish Clan in Scotland, you'll know I have overdone it!!!!

.... So if you hear that they have found a Whirling Dervish Clan in Scotland, you'll know I have overdone it!!!! I've been on 24mg/ml for just over 2 years, must try a small mix at a higher strength sometime .... just to see, or to join you with a bit of whirling!!

It was Dave on VTTV that put me onto the idea. He reckons that he was vaping more often than smoking until he raised his nic level. Although I do believe that he went higher than 36mg. However, I am not that keen to go any higher than I absolutely have to.
So between the skirl o' the pipes and the whirl o' the e-cigs, we'll end up in the Edinburgh Military Tottoo yet! #icon_rofl#

Its brill. Absoloootelly brill. Not sure if i'd like to operate a lathe afterwards, but for an evening vape, its the Bees Knees. I will now up half my juices to 36mg, but keep my day juices to 24mg, atleast for a while.

My usual mixes are 50/50 pg/vg but because I din't have any nic base in VG, I had to make the 48mg in PG only and so the 36mg is a higher % of PG than I would like.
I will now have to order up some 54MG in VG so that I can get my 36mg back to my normal mixes.
But apart from that, I am finding that I am vaping more like I used to smoke, perhaps even less as I am only having a couple of tokes when I used to smoke a whole fag. I do believe that I will be vaping a lot less than I used to on a lower strength.

Yes, at 36mg/ml and 50/50 PG/VG, nicotine base in VG would be needed. TBH I quite like the frequent vaping for the flavours, but I'll none the less see what 36mg/ml is like.

I mostly vape any one of 3 different tobacco flavours during the day, day and day about, then switch to cappuccino or chocolate limes in the evenings and finishing with menthol for an hour or two before bed.
Although I have tried fruit and desert flavours, I'm not too keen on them and usually end up mixing them with some of my more "radical experimental mixes" (yuk!!) to make them vapeable.
As Dave on VTTV says, for those that have to endure the idea of a quick smoke break at work or those that have only the time for a few puffs before being somewhere else, a higher strength would be the answer.
As an OAP, I have all the time in the world, so, for me, the higher strength is more an experience to be enjoyed, rather than a necessity.
