100% VG -- why?

[DaveP]

Even people with mild PG allergies find that a mix is tolerable. Cartos will work fine with 70pg/30vg and some use a 50/50 mix without problems. I vape 100% PG, but suspect that I'd be better off with a mix. I sometimes get that funny feeling in my chest like I'm not getting quite enough oxygen at times. I feel the need to take a deep breath from time to time. That wasn't an issue until right after I started vaping at 4.2v on a 3 ohm Boge. At 3.4v on the eGo, I didn't notice anything. When I borrow my brother in law's little finger clip on oxygen tester, I'm always at 95% or better and it goes to 99 and 100 if I take a deep breath before clipping it on.

We all need to try different mixes and find out what's best for us.

PG gives me a really sore throat.

-but the throat hit would be zero to zilche in my opinion with 100% VG.

You should try some of the juices from Alien Visions E-Juice. Really good throat hit from their 100% VG juices. It also depends on the nic level.

zjb1. I am one of those who vaped mostly PG but after 8 months I started to break out with dry skin in the sinus areas of my face. Both sides of the nose, below my eyebrows, on my temples then on the sides of my face. Non of this fun! It became worse when I started DIY and flavoring up everything. So I came to this forum and found out what might be causing it. So I switched to 100%VG and after 2 weeks all symptoms went away. I am now 2 plus years into vaping and all is well. Do I miss PG? ABSOLUTELY!! Just be glad your not allergic!

I've been vaping for a week or two. I'm experimenting with different juices and PG/VG ratios. I read somewhere on the forum that some people insist on smoking only 100% VG formulations. Can anyone tell me why a vaper would want that?

So far, I don't get good flavor or throat kick from 100 VG. Even Boba's is kind of tame. And I don't see the point in producing clouds of vapor. I want to vape, not be a carnival sideshow. Or in other words, I want to feel it, not necessarily make a visual experience out of it.

Vaping VG at first made me feel oily and my skin seemed to break out so I only vaped PG. Then I tried Bobas and it was so darn good that I just kept vaping it through the annoying side effects. Then I tried a few PG liquids and was like, "Where's the vapor" I think Bobas ruined PG for me forever because I just cant find a PG based liquid that will produce a satisfying amount of vapor. I need to feel vapor on the exhale.

I find VG is much sweeter (naturally sweetner, not something u can achieve with a sweetner), so I think it tastes so much better than PG, plus i cough on PG =(. I also hated having the chapped lips and always thirsty effects of pg. I do use a mix simply because I hate dripping all all VG is pretty much horrid on cartos/etc; but would be 100% vg if a ce2 or something could handle it efficiently!!

PG makes my mouth dry and throat hurt, thats why.
