How many milligrams (MG) per day do you vape?

[Wow1420]

I've seen threads on how many milliliters (ml) people vape per day and threads on what mg/ml (strength) people use. Many people talk about cutting down the strength they use, but does your vape rate increase to compensate?

I change up mg/ml like I do flavors, 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 mg/ml, whatever. But I always end up right around 30 to 36 mg per day (6mil x 6mg/ml = 36 = 3ml x 12mg/ml = any other combination.

So multiply your strength times the quantity and what's the result? Has it increased or decreased since you began?

I'm a chain Vaper. I Vape 15ml a day at 6mg. So that's 90mg. In reality you are not actually getting that amount. We take in much less nicotine through vaping than we did smoking.

 

[archimede]

About 48mg per day for me. 12mg x 4ml

I'm at about 60 mg. 12 x 5. How much less do you reckon ? percentage wise, i mean.

 

[Elizabeth Baldwin]

Nicotine absorption into our system is approximately 60% less with vaping than that of cigarettes.

I use 18mg and about 6ml. I am very happy with it. I may decrease eventually but I have a bunch of 18mg so not changing yet.

Do you have any idea how much nicotine is absorbed, if you smoke approximately one pack of light cigarettes per day. I know it depends on how you puff and how often etc... but just a ballpark number. Curious.

 

[Elizabeth Baldwin]

It's approximately 1 mg per cigarette.

If I work that day, I typically will vape 4.5ml-5ml of an 18mg nic in a tank setting.
If I don't work that, I'd say typically 7-9ml of an 18mg nic in a tank setting.

If I'm dripping I could easily do 10ml of an 12mg nic in a day. I'm afraid I do occasionally like to blow some clouds.

Im averageing 4.5 to 6.5mls a day. Add beer to this I up use more like 10mls it seems. I grew up with a cigarette per beer type habit. The good is when I hit my ecigs it is never burnt to the filter. Lol as long as battery has juice I have vaper.

So if people only absorb .1mg from each analog, per that article, and ecigs is supposed to be far lower it would appear we'd have to go through at least 20 mls a day AND get less nicotine.

I vape between 3 and 5mls a day give or take a ml or so. Would be interesting to read the absorption rate for an ecig user in a side by side comparison.

 

[Rapture]

I vape about 30mls of 6mg a day. So about 180mg. I'm a cloud monster

 

[Wow1420]

I use 18mg and about 6ml. I am very happy with it. I may decrease eventually but I have a bunch of 18mg so not changing yet.

So about 108 mg /day ( 18 x 6)

At what strength?

I think that article has it wrong, but I'll have to come back later with source links.

What strength liquid do you use?

I believe that the Article you Linked to is Incorrect.

Because the Way Regular Cigarettes mg is Rated is by How Much Nicotine the Average Smokers body Absorbs. Not How Much Nicotine is in the Actual Cigarette.

The absorption rate in comparison is about 40% in vaping. It's not an exact science though.

In other words take your mg strength X ml/per day then X .40 and that's what you approximately absorb from your vaping.

So I Vape 6mg at 15ml per day at a .40 absorption rate.

6 x 15 x .40

I get approximately 36 mg of nicotine per day.

I smoked a pack and a half a day. That's around 40 cigarettes (give or take).

1 cigarette is around 1mg of nicotine.

40 x 1

So it's fairly close.

Btw: that article is no where near accurate.

This is Very True.

Much depends on the Hardware. And the Way a Person takes a Hit.

There is a Vast Difference of Nicotine Absorption between someone using a 1st Generation Cigalike doing Mouth Hits. To a Sub-Ohm Cloud Chaser blowing Lung Hit Plumes.

I totally agree. There's a lot of variables involved. It's all approximate.
