Depends on the device you are using.

This should get you close.

Ego Pen style +\- 8watts =12mg
Low wattage box mod +\- 25watts= 6 or 8 mg
Mid wattage box mod +\- 60watts= 4 or 6 mg
High wattage mod 100plus watts= 2 or 3 mg

When I 1st quit my at least a PAD Marlboro Red habit I was at 18-24MG when I got my 1st MOD with a Nautilus Mini tank I went down to 6MG and within a month was at the 3MG I am now almost 3 Years later. Messed with going down to 1.5MG but just found it was like drinking non-alcoholic beer. But this is just me and I know some people who vape 48MG or higher. I tend to chain vape because that was how I smoked. Good luck and congrats on quitting.

Taking into consideration the strength and amount you smoked, and the type of hardware you'll be using to vape, is the best place to start, as indicated above; BKTOAD's suggestions seem very sound. But also, every individual has a different tolerance for "just plain nicotine" -- without all the other chemicals in cigarette smoke, some of which are there solely to make smoking less irritating yet more addictive. I smoked for 39 years, at some points smoking as much as 3.5 pks a day, but was down to about 3/4 of a pk at the time i switched to vaping, AND, I smoked ultra-lights for about the last 20 yrs -- so, even though I was using a puny little cigalike when I started vaping, I couldn't use anything higher than 6mg at first, without terrible nausea; when the cigarettes were completely gone, I went to 8mg, 9mg, and finally 10mg, and parked there for some months.

I personally think it's better to start low, and go up a bit if you find that you need to, rather than starting high, finding yourself feeling sickened and maybe less thrilled about vaping. Don't give yourself a reason to dislike vaping. ;)

When I first cut the Nicotine down I used to keep a bottle of higher nicotine around so I could spike the tank if I thought I needed some high test. Had that bottle around for a long time but it did come in handy.

i thought about it but then i said better to get used to certain mg and go lower with the time...if i will have higher i might add it all the time that my fear.
