It's seriously scary* how much nicotine your vape has in it, and what you’re letting in.
Work out how much nicotine here.
PUFFS = mg
*Nicotine is one of the most addictive poisons. As little as 5mg (25 puffs) can start an addiction.
BEWARE: Use as a guide only, the actual amount of nicotine you let in may be much MUCH higher…
Every vape is different but any level of nicotine is toxic. While vaping, if you've ever felt sick, dizzy, edgy, coughed or your heart rate or breathing changed, you’ve been poisoned by nicotine.
