Well, we need to know your recipe: 10% nicotine is meaningless if we don’t know the concentration you’re using: Many in American use 100mg per ml and Europeans favour 72mg/ml.
Your figures is also lacking 5% of what is in the mix. Again we need to know all the ingredients.
Obviously having excessive nicotine is the biggest issue that leaps to mind: over 7mg/ml risks diaphragm spasms along with coughing fits if you are sub-ohming.
So, 4ml RY4 (version not specified), 1ml Vanilla (version not specified), 1ml Caramel (version not specified), 10 ml nicotine, 35ml PG and 50ml VG. Could you specify what you are using. Also, try practicing counting to 100 - it may help.
He is mixing a 50/50 at 10mg strength id like to know what device he is vaping it on. I tried 6mg nic on my dual coil tengu rda at 80w and fml it hammered my lungs and throat lol
@Siso welcome to ELR, and although I am NOT a tobacco expert, I know a thing or two about vaping and mixing. First things first, vaping should NOT hurt. I’m concerned that it is.
What style of vaping are you doing ?? Mouth To Lung, or Direct To Lung ?? If you are vaping the former, MTL, 10% NIC isn’t terribly high, BUT, if you are vaping sub-ohm clouds in a DTL setup, that level of NIC is probably too high.
It looks basically like this …
Disregard the Capella Apple Pie, that’s just a place holder. I have no way of knowing how strong your base NIC actually is, so I can only assume that by your numbers it’s 100mg NIC, but I could be wrong.
Nothing SCREAMS out “pain” UNLESS you are DTL’ing it.
We also don’t know how LONG your have been vaping, or if you JUST started. If you’ve been vaping a while, have you ever mixed before ? If so, have all or any of your previous mixes caused this issue ? What type of equipment are you using ? What wattage are you vaping at ??
Can you share (link or screenshot) the recipe exactly as you mixed it ?
Best suggestion I can give you is to increase the VG levels. The more PG in a mix the harsher your mix will be. You didn’t mention your device your vaping on but 50% PG 50%VG only works on a low power pod system. I suggest making a 80%VG-20%PG mix if you’re using a RTA or RDA and let your mix steep a little longer.
