Been vaping for 6 years.
Spent the last 6 years trying to find a replacement for my beloved Malboro Lights :p

So I picked up a bottle of Nic Salts today, 50mg Secret Sauce. Went back, put fresh cotton in, wet the coil, filled the tank, and took a drag, man oh man, that thing klapped me like a Texan plain during school.

Headrush of note, immediate heart rate increase, but not pleasant at all. That was at 5pm, it is now 8pm, I am still nauseous! So I guess it was just way too strong.
 
Might not be nic salts, I took 2 drags from a friend's twisp cue over the weekend. 36mg. That was way more than enough for me.
 
No definitely was, without a doubt. Rinsed the tank out, replaced the cottom, and refilled with my regular mix. (Liqua with some extra VG added in.)

Nah, was referring to my case as not being nic salts.

What device did you use?

I'm not surprised it hit you like a freight train. Nic Salts are made for very tight MTL systems and Pods at low wattages.

I'm not a fan of Nic Salts one bit! Not only do they taste kak but they deliver a nic hit of note! Kinda opposite of what us vapers are trying to do. Nic Salts do have a place... and that's getting people off stinkies.
 
And this is the whole problem I have with nic salts and uneducated 'guesses' on ohms and wattage. Nic salts is aimed at getting that nic 'hit' when you need it so I totally get where the OP is coming from....

Nic salts are meant to be used in pod systems if you must use it in RBAs keep it 1.0ohm and up no fancy wires like Clapton hoping to get flavour out of it. It's a ceacation substance/method period...

If you want to stay off the stinkies get a refillable pod system....
 
you would get that issue with that setup.a good mtl vape is somewhere in between a higher ohm coil and a lower wattage.with a 0.6ohm coil somewhere between 7 and 11 watts should do the trick ,somewhere between 7-15w does a good job at 18mg on a 1ohm-1ohm + coil

Thanks, will try and get that built tomorrow, still new to this whole coiling business.

Honestly if you new to this and want to get off the stinkies spend the bucks and get a pod device.... Aspire Breeze 2 or the like

Not new to this, been vaping since those horrible pen devices back in 2012! New to rolling coils, have not yet mastered that yet.

No worries boet all I'm saying is use the device that suits the juice.

Was also there with building coils I now rather just buy premade coils (and yes I've been caught saying I don't get premade coils :p)
 
@CyberJoe if you want, you can build a high resistance coil in the Savour MTL. I would say aim for around 1.4 ohms (because you have 50mg salts). If you take a look at the very popular Juul pod system, it has a coil which measures at ~1.6 ohms and I would assume it's pushing 9 Watts or so. The Juul has a similar strength (59mg). To get your device suitable for the 50mg salts, try to match the Juul.

On your Savour MTL, make sure you are using the MTL post so you can get a tight draw. Combine that draw with a high resistance coil, +-10w of power and 50mg of juice and you'll have a nice setup going.

Alternatively, you can get an Aspire Breeze 2. I've tried a few pod devices and as of yet, I haven't found a pod device as reliable and cheap to use. (coils are cheap for it and last a decent amount of time). Use the breeze 2 with a 1 ohm coils and you should be good. You can even try the 1.2 ohm coil as well to find which one suits you best. I'm currently using the 1 ohm coil with 35mg juice but I think I'm going to need a 50mg. The juice I'm using a Naked Brain Freeze and even at 35mg I find it fairly smooth with a slight throat hit. Definitely not getting any silvers.
 
@CyberJoe goodluck with your nic salt journey. We all try new stuff. I tried nic salt 50 mg and it just taste k:swear:k to me not the flavor it just had a funny taste. But anyway enjoy the jouney and we all learn something new everyday.
 
"MTL only" is the rule I follow for nic salts. I had a similar experience when I dripped nic salts on my RDA.
I was surprised that I dint like the head rush, I would have definitely done that again again if I had discovered nic salts few years back.
 
Hi Guys

I initially started off wit h 50MG nic salts and after having a continuous head ache for 3 days,i swapped it out with a friend for his 25 MG VGOD Cubanno nic salt juice.
Ever since,I have only been vaping 25MG or less.

Last week however,I tried 50MG again and it immediately increases my heart rate and restricts my breathing to an extent-And so I have come to the conclusion that 50MG is WAY too high for me.

I am currently vaping on 20MG Toffee D'luxe by Jooseliqz and it is a dream in my berserker mini with a 0.74 build at 9watts.
 
@CyberJoe has illustrated the biggest problem with nic salts i.e. people don't know how to vape it. This is not a criticism of you, CyberJoe - you've just illustrated what happens when one doesn't know how to vape it. And I bet my last dollar that wherever you bought it from, didn't bother to tell you! :CROSSCROSS:

A year ago, when I bought my Aspire Gusto Mini (which uses nic salts pods) few people had even heard of nic salts (unless they had the Gusto Mini). Now, so many juice brands are offering their juice with nic salts - but how many vapers know how to vape it??? Suddenly, nic salts is the in-thing and the juice brands are jumping on to the bandwagon - all in the name of ... MONEY. Makes me sick, quite frankly - and I'm not referring to the nic salts!

Fair enough - but then be ethical and enclose a pamphlet with the juice which informs vapers how to vape it, with regards to ohms and wattage.

In addition, nic salts in now available in liquid form, so one doesn't need to use a pod system. An unwitting vaper could easily buy a bottle of this juice, having no clue what it really is.

@CyberJoe, nic salts is NOT "kak" as some peeps have said - but it has its place and the vaper must know what he/she is doing.

I usually vape 3mg, as I chain-vape. But - I take a puff of nic salts (or ordinary juice but in high nic) in between. By the afternoon though, I'm craving nic and then I switch to nic salts for an hour or two . Just lately, I've been craving a stinkie - don't know why, since I stopped smoking more than 3 years ago - and it's nic salts which are keeping me on the straight and narrow.

These are the set-ups which I use:

Aspire Gusto Mini (with nic salts pods of 20mg). The Gusto Mini gives a strong throat hit, if that's what you're after - it's an awesome little mod. Downside: the pods are a bit expensive.

Nautilus Mini tank: It takes commercial coils of 1,6ohm and I vape at no higher than 10W. Very soft on the throat but still gives my body the nic it needs. I use nic salts juice of between 20mg - 35mg.

EGO AIO ECO - I takes commercial coils of 0.5ohm which is strange, because one shouldn't sub-ohm nic salts. However, this device was designed specifically for high nic vaping and the wattage is very low (and can't be adjusted). Also soft on the throat but obviously gives the nic hit.

@CyberJoe I'm sorry that you had a bad experience and I hold the juice manufacturers to blame, for not including information with the juice. As other peeps have said above, try again, this time armed with the knowledge which you need! Enjoy - and keep us posted!


 
I have an interesting test coming up. I got a bottle of Freshly Squeezed Salts in 3mg that is Nic Salts made for Sub Ohm tanks!

Shot, awesome post and help.

Nope, shop said nothing, I asked about it, and asked strength, they gave me a pod thing to try and said it was 25mg, I said that did nothing for me, and got the 50mg, but no, nothing was said about wattage, although I did ask for coils over 1 ohm, and was offered 0.2 instead....

I am going to try and build a coil now, but if that fails it is no sweat, I have a few Nautilus, Nautilus Mini, Nautilus 2, K2 etc here in the drawer with plenty of 1.6 coils for it, so I can do that, the only reason I have been moving towards the building route is to save on coil cost.

Interesting and unusual that it's only 3mg - there aren't many nic salts around which are not high nic. And if it's only 3mg then yes, it could be sub-ohmed. As far as I know, it's not the nic salts per se that can not be sub-ohmed - it's the strength of the nic. The same applies to freebase high nic, doesn't it? I often vape freebase at 12mg - 18mg nic, but then I vape it in the Nautilus at 8W - 10W.

I don't see the point of a brand using nic salts for low nic. One of my coffees had 3mg nic salts: Milkshake Liquids/Secret Menu - Wake Up Wake Up. What would be interesting is if I could get the same juice but in freebase nic, to compare the difference!
