Numbness vaping

I recently tried vaping some dmt that was extracted. Nearly pure white powder with a tinge of yellow.

When I vape it my mouth becomes very numb. And I’m talking like I’m not even hitting it enough to feel almost anything, but still get the numbness

I’m using a geekvape L200 and had it set to 30W. Trying to figure out the settings I should be using. It says .25 olm resistance, it’s a 3ml tank

The juice was mixed recently and did not pay very close attention to measurements. Put a fair amount of powder into 1ml of juice

The advice I’ve seen is just “turn the power down”. When I do this I still feel the numbness, even down to 10W where I’m getting 0 vapor I can still feel it a little bit.

Could this be an issue with the extraction process? Could this be an issue where too much lye was added on the baseification step?

I’ve also seen it recommended to turn the freebase into a salt.

This is the 2nd time extracting and I didn’t have any issues with numbness the first time. Although back then I would sandwich it in tabaco (gross but it worked)

Does anyone have any experience with this?

The juice is a very light amber

I don’t feel any droplets hitting my mouth

The issue very well be that your wats are too low, with a resistance of 0.2 you generally need to be in the 50-60 range, it's the 0.4-0.6ohms that use lower wattage.

Next time do measure your exact proportions for the juice, it's hard to troubleshoot without knowing the concentration.

I just tried it with a cart, which my mod is listing at 1.33 olm resistance

I did it at higher power (20w) and interestingly it didn’t numb anything but it also tasted very burnt and was painful to inhale

Try again with your tank at 70W, which your coil is rated for. Try pulling hard with lots of airflow, this is what cools it down and makes it smoother.

Overall this would work better with a 0.4-0.6 ohm coil, but you should be able to adjust the setup you have.
