How do I choose the right nicotine strength for my liquid?

Choosing the right nicotine strength for your liquid is crucial for an optimal vaping experience and depends heavily on your previous smoking habits. Different nicotine strengths offer different intensities, which can make the transition from smoking to e-cigarettes easier.
Liquids are available in several nicotine strengths, ranging from nicotine-free (0 mg/ml) to high concentrations (20 mg/ml). If you have smoked heavily before, a liquid with a higher nicotine content could be useful to satisfy the craving for nicotine. Beginners and occasional smokers, on the other hand, often choose liquids with a low nicotine content to enjoy the vaping experience without needing a high nicotine dose.

• 0 mg/ml: For vapers who want to do without nicotine. This option is ideal for those who want to enjoy the flavour and vaping experience without consuming nicotine. It is particularly suitable for former smokers who have already overcome nicotine withdrawal but want to continue vaping.
• 3 mg/ml: Very low nicotine content, ideal for occasional vapers or for those who are just starting to use e-cigarettes and want to reduce their nicotine consumption. This strength offers a light nicotine experience without a strong scratchy throat.
• 6 mg/ml: Low nicotine content, suitable for light smokers who are switching to e-cigarettes. This strength delivers a moderate amount of nicotine equivalent to a light smoker who consumes about 5-10 cigarettes per day.
• 12 mg/ml: Medium nicotine content, for average smokers who smoke about half a packet of cigarettes a day. This strength offers a good balance of nicotine delivery and flavour, which is ideal for many former smokers.
• 18 mg/ml: High nicotine content, for heavy smokers who consume more than one packet of cigarettes per day. This strength is particularly suitable for those who are looking for an intense nicotine kick and want to make the transition from smoking to e-cigarettes as smooth as possible.
• 20 mg/ml: Very high nicotine content, for very heavy smokers who need a particularly high nicotine intake. This strength is often found in nicotine salt liquids, which offer a gentle throat hit despite the high nicotine content. They are ideal for users of pod systems and MTL (Mouth-to-Lung) devices who are looking for quick and effective nicotine satisfaction.

The choice of the right nicotine strength is individual and depends on various factors, such as the number of cigarettes smoked daily and the strength of previously consumed tobacco products. Too high a nicotine content can lead to an unpleasant scratchy throat, while too low a nicotine content does not sufficiently satisfy the craving for nicotine. It is therefore advisable to start with a medium strength and then adjust the nicotine dose as required.
If you are unsure, it is always a good idea to try out different nicotine strengths to find the one that best suits your needs. In the Aladin Shisha Shop, you can discover a wide selection of liquids in different nicotine strengths to find the perfect vaping experience.
