Yes it works for dippers. I slept with one in for the past 15 years. I only smoked when it was inconvenient to dip. A dip has 3 times the nicotine of a marlboro red, so you probably need to start with a 24mg nicotine juice. My advice would be to find a good vapor shop close to you. If its worth a damn, they will be able to show you the different battery and tank options. For the first few weeks I dipped a "smokey mtn herbal snuff" to help with the oral fixation issue but now I just vape when I feel the need. Im down to 3mg and hope to put the vape down soon. Nicotine is a tough drug to kick, and after trying for many years, vapping helped me do it. I would recomend it to anyone thinking of kicking nicotine
