So I did some calculations just now. Seems like I want 72mg nic a day to feel comfortable.
Accidentally loaded up with 12mg yesterday, and it was not ideal. Even with pushing the wattage. It is just not the same. The cravings every 30 minutes to go downstairs, and the lack of satisfaction every time i go down for a vape.
1 x 4ml tank of 18mg delivers a whopping 72mg
12mg drops 48mg over a day.
3mg with 4 x 4ml tanks is also 48mg over the span of the day.
Been vaping for... Damn, cant remember. Think about 6 years now, so I think it is safe to assume I will always be at the higher end of the scale.
When I just started vaping I did close to 10ml of 18mg a day. So at least there is some improvement.

I can relate to what you posted @CraftyZA
Most of my gear are lower powered setups (15-30W) so 12-18mg is what I need in them to feel like I've had a proper vape. When I try 6mg - the flavour is nice, if its a nice juice, but it just feels like I need to chain vape it all the time. Satisfaction levels definitely lower.
But i have been thinking about this further. I think its got to do with me liking the sharper punchier throat hit from a tighter draw device.
If i were to use a big air big power setup (eg the Doge dripper) then 6mg is fine and 12mg is too harsh, but I dont like the throat hit sensation from that. Its not sharp and punchy its more of a gradual thing. And uppiny the nic just doesnt give the same sort of feeling.
So for now it look like i will stick to higher nic on the tighter draw lower powered devices. With the occasional big air 6mg experience for fun, clouds and experimenting.
Spot on silver.
I've got an sx mini running 20 watts with an antique authentic kayfun lite v1. This authentic kayfun came from my early mech days.
I have a rx200 and griffin setup, but rarely use it. Bought it purely out of peer pressure. Might even sell it at some point to buy another sx mini & perhaps one of the newer versions of kayfun.(authentic as well)

Cool @CraftyZA
Lol, dont get me started on the authentic Kayfun story...
It is haunting me...
I also want to get one after my experiences with them were ruined very early on with a bad clone.
But i think that type of vape will suit my vaping style perfectly
if I go from 18mg to 9mg the volume of liquid I vape on a daily basis exactly doubles. Now that is all fun and games till you have to buy 15 bottles of liquid every month plus I don't feel satisfied it is like being very hungry and eating only half a sandwich. It helps but you want more
Went to a vape shop yesterday to buy a 6mg juice, the guy at counter said only stocks 3mg as 6mg is too strong! LOL I think he should read this thread!
Also that intensity of the nic boosts the flavour of the juice.
They way i see it, is like food.
If you cook with chillies, it boosts the flavor of your other spices.
Same effect with nic in juice.

Hi folks. Bought some Scream 6mg just to see what everyone was raving about and really like it. But as you know the hit is just not there.
Can I buy some nicotine and just add a little to up the hit or is it not so simple ? I just want to know the procedure to up the nicotine in juices that are not available in high nic.

You can. The stronger the nic, the better since you dilute less.
I had 30ml of 10% nic that i used for that. Takes about 3 or 4ml to bump 30ml of juice to 18mg.
If you can get your hands on nic that strong, be careful. It can be lethal to touch. Use medical latex gloves, and work outside.
Shake well, and let sit for a week.
yes with 100mg nic its can be done without affecting the taste to much. Problem is 100mg nic is quite scarce. If you use 36mg nic which is what most of the DIY vendors sell your will have to add 15ml and that is just to much dilution. The other option is to request a special order of 18mg.
Guys don't forget PG also adds to throat hit. Nic is one part of it. For instance Scream is high vg so even with the extra nic it might not give you that satisfying hit you expecting.
I normally mix all my juice at 50/50

Only one way to find out
Hi @ddk1979
You can add nic as the other guys suggested, the stronger the better.
I have only tried with 36mg nic -
On some juices it does dilute the flavour a bit - but its not a big problem because most times I'd gladly take the extra strength and pay up with a little flavour loss.
In some juices I can hardly tell the difference in flavour because they are strongly flavoured to start off with.

Nic does impart its own flavour and can change subtle flavoring in a juice. I normally leave complex suble high vg juice be and drip those in the evenings. Adding nic to those usually mutes the flavour a bit, I found anyway, some juice is not prone to this but the majority are. The lower nic high vg juices are aimed at drippers and high power tanks so the flavour is more subtle.
Best way is to use small amounts of the juice you want to bump the nic up on, like 10ml add your nic and try. Only way to find out really.
Guys, I know it depends on the concentration, but you seem to have conflicting views about how much nic to add ???
.
My formula:
4ml x 100mg/ml = 400mg nic
26ml x 3mg/ml = 78mg
400 + 78 = 478
481 / 30ml = 16mg/ml
Ok so i was out with 2mg

Thanks for all the hard work. I have just ordered a bunch of toe curling, trouser tightening 12 and 18mg juice from one of the vendors who responded.
