While it’s important to remember you don't need to use nicotine shots when vaping, and that nicotine-free shortfills can be vaped as they are, if you are looking for a Nic hit, knowing how much to add and at what strength is vitally important.
You should never add more than one 10ml Nic shot to a 50ml shortfill. On the other hand, what strength you opt for will depend on your preferences and what you are used to - particularly if you are a former smoker. As a rule of thumb, we would recommend following the below guidelines:
3mg - 5mg/ml - former light smokers and those looking to cut down on their nicotine intake.
6mg - 10mg/ml - former light to moderate smokers, especially those who have only just transitioned from smoking to vaping.
12mg - 20mg/ml - former heavy smokers.
