My wife and I have been using the Smok Priv V8. I see that it has been discontinued. I am sure there are many exciting and innovative new designs out there, but my wife will not be able to use them. She always manages to get things confused even with simple displays and a few extra buttons...

I'm sorry, but nicotine is the only source for a true throat hit, because it actually causes the muscles of the throat to spasm. You can get a nice feeling from a strong menthol or from a strong cinnamon to, but it's not exactly that strong throat hit you get from nicotine. You can lower the...

I got some on the basis of this thread, and I was surpised at the smell of the liquid when I opened the bottle, and when vaping, thought it was odd and almost perfumey for a cigar the first few times I tried it, and then it just sort of "locked in" on me, and I'm nuts about it now. I really...

I believe that unless you are controlling all variables and test your source eLiquids for nicotine concentration (there is such a test on the forums, although I've never tried it), you can't be sure enough of the similarity of conditions or the eLiquid potency to make that conclusion in this...

My method is: Soak atty in steaming hot water for an hour, blow out atty, repeat. Then soak in PGA (or if it is illegal in your state, use 151 rum) overnight. Warning, soaking in PGA overnight could damage the exterior paint job on the atty. I've had this happen, and now I have a very nice...

I don't think there is currently any available means to get a true throat hit with 0 nicotine. I've tried PGA, Menthol, pepper, and lots of other stuff. There is a lot of good information on the forums, and a lot of misinformation.

Wow, great idea! And if you are mixing larger amounts together, your ratios are probably more accurate than when mixing smaller amounts because the percentage of imprecision in volume measurement is lower.

I'm guessing you are going to get more "Hot" than "Hit". not just your throat but your whole mouth. And it will build up and linger with each puff. Just a guess ;)

Get some Propylene Glycol or Vegetable Glycerin to cut your liquid with. See the DIY forum sticky http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/74109-guide-diy-flavoring.html Until you get some, try this: pull in a half or partial puff as hard (fast) as you can. Then take your mouth off...

Here is the problem: Tasty Vapor has a great tasting cherry, but it is kind of like a lollipop artificial flavor. I think the flavor is Lorran's based. I like that personally. DeKang makes a milder, more natural cherry flavor in my opinion, but it is out of China. But why are you avoiding...

If you want the nicotine hit: Generally, 24mg works for me. If it seems a little weak, it's probably not really a full 24mg. You can get down to around 14mg and still get a decent effect if you only vape once or twice a day for a short time. I have gotten 36 and 48 mg for mixing, and have...

I just don't know of anything other than nicotine that gives the same throat hit feeling. I have come to the conclusion that it is misguided to try to reproduce it precisely with a common substance, although I probably won't stop trying, and don't want to hinder others from doing so- who knows...

Goodness, from the OP's comment, I thought, I have to see this! So I searched and found it. Here's an overview if you don't want to spend 2-3 minutes watching it. tl;dw: A 90's video game quality rendered 3-D video of superhero costumed male and female characters standing still inside a...

I'm sorry, but I'm not talking about Vitamin C. The chemical name for Vitamin C is Ascorbic Acid. Citric Acid is used in various foods like sodas to add sourness and has no nutritional value that I am aware of. It is also sometimes used in home brewed beer or wine, and therefore can often be...

Experiment with citric acid yielded negative results for me. See: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/93890-citric-acid-any-luck-added-th.html#post1532902 Here is why I think higher voltage increases throat hit. It does create heat, which makes the vapor more chemically active...

MCBug, I did some experiments as well and my findings confirm yours. I mixed up a home brew eLiquid of straight 0mg PG and food grade powdered citric acid in a ratio of 1 cc PG fluid to 1 cc citric acid powder. I have no idea what this would equate to as the chemical % solution, but I think it...

Some articles about Citric Acid TH I posted about in another thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/22081-how-get-throat-hit-zero-nic-5.html#post1494924 It's been used to produce throat hit (they call it "tracheal scratch") in the lab.

Has anyone tried a weak solution of citric acid or ascorbic acid (vitamin c)? See Development of a citric acid aerosol as a smoking ... [Drug Alcohol Depend. 1990] - PubMed result "Development of a citric acid aerosol as a smoking cessation aid." From the abstract, "...The satisfaction...

I would guess it's more that many people have been totally unable to vape their new e-cig because of the lack of support from those kiosks and hi-end $ websites. So they didn't stop vaping so much as they were never able to get started. I think this is because those are business models...

Same here. I've tried a lot of fruit flavors, and I have a whole set of DIY supplies including a bunch of concentrated flavors; I've mixed up a little of all sorts of things. But I eventually settled on tobacco primarily daily , straight strong DIY menthol about once every 1-2 days, and cherry...
