Default Juice reformulation

Hey there all. Total newbie here. After reading a fair chunk of comments on the forum here I think one relatively easy change would be for there to be glycerin based cartridges/juice instead of the PG product available now. I'm not familiar with nicotine's solubility in glycerin so there may be barriers there but I would think that switching away from PG to Glycerin would make it so that the only potentially hazardous chemical in the vapor is the nicotine itself.

Just my $.02

Hi foobar! Welcome to the forum! I believe TB (TropicalBob) already uses Vegetable Glycerin now and again - if you check through the posts you should find out more about it. Shouldn't be too hard to use it instead.

I use Vegetable Glycerin. No problems here. Not all the side effects I had when I was smoking PG exclusively.

I'm going to buy some this afternoon.

I agree that this stuff needs to be reformulated.

I've been using Vegetable Glycerin for a few months now and I have had no problems.

I gotta say no. I tried some, and I found it made me cough as much as a real cig.

Those who are using it are now known. After you've used it for awhile, how about sharing a little more about it besides vapor and no side effects? The vapor is getting rave reviews...and so far, no one is reporting any side effects. Give it up:

Flavor?

What do you mix it with?

Where did you purchased yours? (Thanks for your link, Cash )

Do you add e-cig pg nicotine to your glycerine to get flavor? Or do you use bicks? Or do you brew your own?

Are you using VG exclusively or are you still using regular e-cig liquid?

If you're using VG exclusively, are you noticing any feeling of wellness since switching?

After you've been using it for a couple of weeks or more, share your experience?

Thank ya!

It will Leaford if you use too much- some use it striaght, but like you, I find it is quite harsh on the throat- not that I can't stand it, but I prefer only adding a little to juice to make it vapor better- as well, Glycerin affects my internals causing musical sounds best produced in private.
