Finding the Right Nicotine Strength

If you really want to take your vaping experience to the next level, finding the right balance for yourself is key.


One of the most important factors to consider is the nicotine strength in your e-liquid, either in your disposable or pod.


One of the key things to think about is how much nicotine is in your e-liquid, disposable, or prefilled pod.
Remember, the goal is to find a balance that suits your personal needs and preferences.

This guide will show you how to pick the best nicotine strength for your needs.

What are Nicotine Strengths?

Nicotine strength in e-liquids is usually expressed in milligrams per millilitre (mg/mL) or as a percentage.

For example, a nicotine strength of 3mg/mL is the same as 0.3%. The usual nicotine strengths are 0mg (no nicotine), 3mg, 6mg, 12mg, and 18mg.

Some e-liquids can have up to 24mg, but these are mainly for very heavy smokers who are switching to vaping.


Assessing Your Nicotine Needs

Your ideal nicotine strength largely depends on your current nicotine usage.

If you’re a heavy smoker looking to switch to vaping, you might want to start with a higher nicotine strength, like 18mg or 24mg.

Light smokers or those who smoke socially might find 3mg or 6mg sufficient. If you’re vaping purely for the flavour and don’t want any nicotine, 0mg is the choice for you.

Trying Different Strengths

It’s important to remember that everyone’s experience with vaping is unique…what works for one person might not work for another.

Don’t be afraid to experiment with different nicotine strengths until you find what works best for you. Start with a lower strength and gradually increase if you feel it’s necessary.


Considering Throat Hit

The ‘throat hit’ is the sensation you get in the back of your throat when you inhale nicotine.

Higher nicotine strengths will provide a stronger throat hit, which some vapers enjoy. However, if you find the throat hit too harsh, you may need to lower your nicotine strength.

 

Health Considerations

While vaping is generally considered less harmful than smoking, nicotine is still a highly addictive substance.

It’s important to use it responsibly. If you’re trying to quit smoking, gradually reducing your nicotine strength can be an effective strategy to completely rid yourself of conventional cigarettes.
