How Much Nicotine Am I Getting?
I used to smoke between 10-15 marlboro lights per day. I have now quit assisted by an electronic cigarette using 18mg nicotine cartridges, I use between 2 and 3 of these per day. Am I now having more nicotine than I had with the cigarettes?

The following info is from Green Smoke (http://greensmoke.com/florida). I would assume it is comparable to other brands:
16mg = comparable to non filtered cigarettes
8mg = comparable to ‘Full Flavored’
6mg = comparable to ‘Lights’
4mg = comparable to ‘Ultra Lights’
0mg = cartridges with the flavor but which contain no nicotine at all.
So, it seems to me that you are using a very high dosage, but only smoking 2-3 a day. So, overall, more nicotine at one time, but less for the entire day.
I started with the 8mg and have some 6mg that came with my starter kit. To tell you the truth, I don’t notice a difference when I smoke the 6mg. I’m thinking of switching to 6mg, then 4mg, then hopefully just some vanilla, strawberry or apple flavor.
