Any experiences of the lower nicotine eliquids?

[Morag]

Hi,  I got my little order of sample sized juices today and had to try the black jack flavour first    No time to steep although I will try to do this once I've calmed myself to a frenzy.  I'm using a cart instead of a clearo for the first time so not sure if its that or just the different juice or possibly both but I seem to be getting a bigger hit.  A couple of times a hit too much, felt light headed at one point (pmsl) and slightly queasy again    I clearly don't do moderation so well at the moment.

Just wonder if the lower nicotine juices are as good and what the experiences are with them?

I started with 18mg and couldnt handle it dropped traight down to 6mg which I am finding fab

I vape anywhere between 0 and 12mg, usually, right from when I started. 18mg gets a bit too much for me. But I work from home and can, and frequently do, chain vape. I enjoy it, flavour-wise I think it's fine. Throat hit might be an issue if that's what you're after, although you could always turn up the volts and lower the ohms if you have a VV battery. You could always just try it with a couple of low-nic juices and see how you get on

I find it handy to have a selection of strengths on the go Ragmo, low nic for when I'm at home and able to chain vape ( a particular passion of mine  ) . . . and some higher strengths for work and the like, where I can't have unlimited access to a lovely vaping session.

Thanks folks. I'm a bit surprised I appear to be a bit of a lightweight, I didn't think vaping would be quite so potent! I will give a low nic flavour a go when I next order and see how it goes and you are right Perpetua, in an evening with the laptop I do smoke and now vape more than other times.

I have some 8mg and 10mg stuff, sure.

I also bought some Zero nicotine, which in all honesty, wasn't the cleverest thing I could have done. Not because people shouldn't try zero nicotine, but because for me it was a) rubbish b) expensive and c)pointless vaping.

I quite like vaping low nic juice and have made some too. Whether or not it's for everyone, I don't know.

you have to remember you are vaping alot differently to how you smoked so maybe a lower nic would suit you better

Fee, if you want to lower the nicotine content of the juices you already have, you can cut them with VG (Vegetable Glycerine). It's as cheap as chips - about 50p for a small bottle from the baking section in most supermarkets or about £1.20 from most chemists. However, it will also cut the flavour, but on the other hand, you will get even more vapour by adding VG

Gordy, I am vaping differently. I "smoked" alot in an evening but tbh I think the ashtray smoked the majority of them - now that's an expensive waste! Whereas the vaping goes on and on.

That's a great idea Chrissie I will try doing that see how it goes (once I find the baking dept in the supermarket )

TBH I'm not sure it exists... bit Narnia sounding to me

[Gordy]

thats how i am...specially if i am enjoying the flavour i can find myself chain vaping

I use 8mg all the time now after initially starting on 18, which made me feel sick, dizzy and gave me headaches. Changed to 12, which was better, but still gave me headaches, then found 8 is just right. Not bothered about throat hit. I weakened a lot of my higher nic. juices with PG and VG, plus added a little extra flavouring. Some were nice and others got binned! At least I rescued quite a bit.

[Chrissie]

We really are all so different. Anything below 24mg & I'm crawling up the walls

[Morag]

Thanks Anne, tbh I haven't got that much juice so its not a huge loss if they taste nasty or of nothing after being cut with VG. I will try them all uncut first tho so I get a feel for the flavour for reordering but will deffo try a lower nicotine juice, I thought because I was quite a heavy smoker (over 20 a day mainly) that I'd need atleast medium and did consider the higher one for a while! Plus him indoors doesn't know I'm vaping yet - I hide behind my laptop. When he finds out and wants to try I will pass off the higher/nasty stuff to him *is all heart*
