100% PG juice nearly stealth

[RedForeman]

Carto filling day today . I just loaded up 8 eGo megas and 4 ce2. So the good news is that's behind me for a couple weeks. Gawd - filling cartos is a pita.

I've been using these with 50/50 a while and getting a decent vapor. I ordered some 100% PG this time to hopefully get better feed on the ce2s. So after cleaning up the mess I screwed a battery on a new mega carto and tried it out. I feel the throat hit, taste the flavor, the carto is warming up, but nearly no vapor. Just a little wisp out of the tip after taking a long vape. So I know it's working ok. I just about vaped myself into a headspin making sure

This is interesting to me because some 100% PG juice I have from another vendor that's not as tasty produces more vapor. This is my first order of that from fsusa. I definitely like this, as it will make for much easier stealth vaping. I think this one is strawberry flavor. I'll have to try the other flavors later on and see if they act the same.

I think I read that vg produces the vapor. Could be wrong though...

You filled enough cartos to last two weeks? Wow! How many did you fill? How long did it take you?

Your right. PG is for throat hit and VG is for vapor.
And wow that must have been quite the job filling for 2 weeks. I'm lucky to do a days worth before going to work.

VG = Vapor PG = TH
I used to use high PG juice when I first started vaping in order to get the extra TH. I quickly found that a 50/50 blend is perfect for TH and vapor. PG juice is also very thin.

I only use cartos when I'm going out of the house for a while and handling juice will be inconvenient, so they last a long time. I filled 8 mega cartos and 4 ce2. With the holiday weekend and no immediate business travel planned, they might even go longer than that.

I was just surprised at how little vapor (nearly zero) was produced by this fsusa 100% PG juice. I've only previously ordered 50/50 or straight VG and get tons of vapor from both.

I did some more testing, trying out the other cartos I filled and checking them with my multi-meter. The ce2s make a little vapor, but that's not surprising as they are semi-LR (2.4Ω). After wasting a bunch of time with that I had my "eureka!" moment. It turns out I am actually getting decent vapor and for some reason my lungs are absorbing all of it. If I take the vape into my mouth and blow it right out, there it is - just like expected, a pretty decent looking vapor. Inhale it and nothing exhales.

I am still curious whether anyone else has seen this with fsusa straight PG juice, or if maybe it's that particular flavor or something?

Well I use 100% pg juice when I am at work since I can stealth vape and it is not as noticeable. I am just glad I don't have issues with pg. I get 80% of my juice from fsusa so really have not seen a difference in the lack of vapor in pg at other sites.

Thanks for the explanation. I only use cartos and can't imagine how long it would take me to fill enough for two weeks! That said, filling 8 mega cartos and 4 ce2s must have taken you a long time! You must have a lot of patience.

Don't know what to tell you about the juice. I only use 50/50. Hopefully someone will chime in.

Only about 30 minutes. I spent more time putting out newspaper to catch a mess and clean up everything afterward. Once I had all the caps off and the syringe ready, the filling only took a couple of minutes. The ce2s were especially quick since the plugs are easy to handle and they are easy not to overfill. The mega cartos are just messy unless you deliberately underfill them. The mess has a benefit though - they last all day and then some, whereas the ce2 is only good for an hour or three depending on how hard you're hitting it.

I order either 100% PG or 90% PG/10% VG; vapor isn't that important to me, but I do recognize the primordial satisfaction it gives. In any event, I get plenty of vapor out of PG--but then, I drip exclusively.
