Vaping nic salts in DTL

[Nigel1811]

I've been vaping for a few years and have been using 20mg NIC salts in a DTL kit.
I've never had any issues with this, but have seen a lot of posts saying only shortfills should be used in DTL.
What are people's thoughts?

Hi Nigel

Vaping us totally subjective what works for you may not for others and vice versa if you've been doing it years and has kept you off the fags then don't change it mate

I vape 20mg in a very loose airflow MTL tank at 20 Watts (probably more of an RDL vape) but I generally use it when I'm outdoors and just want 5 or 6 hits to get my nic fix. If I chain vape it I will feel pretty rough though.

If you find it OK and it doesn't make you feel ill then OK I suppose - the only reservation I'd have is just how much nicotine are you ingesting? I think that if you are the type that takes a few hits, puts it down and ignores your mod for the next hour then it's probably not a problem, but if you permanently have your mod in your hand and chain vape (some of the members here go through 40+ ml a day) then you're probably overdoing it, but 'DL' vaping could be anything from 20 Watts and up. If you're at the lower wattage end then it's probably no worries, but if you're cloudchucking on an 80 Watt Mesh coil that swills juice then I'd definitely reduce the nic. But it's probably still better than cigs.

Yeah I'm definitely, a few puffs an hour, not chain vaping. Wattage is between 40 - 45, I am actually going to try a shortfill, and see how that feels.

You might find that 3mg freebase does the trick for you .it'll work out cheaper for you as shortfills usually do .

There's some decent 50/50 shortfills/longfills out there now that work out much better value than 10mls

Nic salts are smoother, so they tend to be easier on the throat, especially at higher strengths like 20mg. If you’ve been vaping like this for a while without issues, then you might not need to make any changes.

I dont like salts make me jittery.
MTL 12mg freebase
RDL 6mg freebase
DTL upto 120w 3mg freebase
Mech build upto 200w 1.5mg freebase
