As some of you guys may already know I have been experimenting on getting to the bottom of the Throat Kick Science for a while now .

have now tried nearly all Nic levels and over 30 flavours

and even Lemon Juice YUCK and now alchohol ! tried both PG and VG bases

all tests are being done on a DSE901

Just waiting for a few more ingredients and will let you all know the results soon

I never understood what people mean with a "throat hit".

Sounds awfully painful to me.

i just popped a new atomizer in my device.. the old one has had about a weeks use.. instant throat hit from the new one nothing much from the old one..

i could have made the old one last for longer.. but it dosnt work anywhere near as well as the brand new one..

not as i think it practical to swap atomizers very week.. i just know i get far better e smoking if i do.. make your choice..

i ticked atomizer.. battery and fluid..

Throat hit. Its like the part right before you would gag. Like a heavy pressure sensation, like a wave of smoke about to crest. Oh I got it.. Its like the feeling you get where your body wants you to reject it. Sort of... Its the feeling a nonsmoker would get when they take the first drag and something in their mouth says "get this OUT!"
