smok M80 Plus, it has adjustable voltage. Yes, I fully charged the battery.

Are you an aspie?
We (me too) tend to be more sensitive to flavors and meds and such.
I would try a different store and lower nic.
For me pure vg helped a lot.
There are tons of ways to tweak what you vape so that its perfect.

Since there seem to be a few people here that know their nic, heres something that Id like to know if its me or ....

A few months ago I decided to try nic in a PG base. I finally finished off my previous nic base ( had always used VG nic) I mixed up my usual simple single flavors and man if it did not taste awful.. Dont know how to describe it, but it was harsh and no matter how I mixed it I did not like it. It was if it had gone bad.

I posted about there being a difference in taste from PG based Nic and Vg based nic and everyone told me no.

I have since gone back to VG nic and all is well. I always do a 90 to 100 VG liquid depending on time of year. Hot weather I do full VG.

Yes, I used the same vendor all the time... Since then Ive gone to Nude Nic, its good, clean.... I think I will try VaperTek next time, and yes in a VG base.

I vape high Nic 24 mg NETs in a little CE5+ and 18 mg in a GS air or nautilus mini at 50/50 to 70pg/30vg I've tasted peppery juices and good non peppery at those levels. I've read some people vaping unflavored Nic pg/vg say some brands of Nic bases were peppery and others not, I plan to find out for myself soon.

Since pg gives a throat hit I'm not surprised that by itself it's harsh, and I've read vg has a little sweet taste. I'm considering nude Nic as a source I will order a pg Nic base and a vg Nic base and mix to the ratios I like and try them :)

I don't know if this is an option to you @Eazyaspievaper, but since i'm just coming back to vaping, again, i use 2 different tanks, one with high nic 50/50 and one with low nic 100% vg. If I need a fast fix, I use my 32mg 50/50 mix. It does tend to dry my mouth out and have a peppery feel to it, hence I go to my 100 vg after my nic fit

I should note that 100% vg are rough on my coils
