Hi All,

I am sure this question have been asked before and do apologize for cud'nt find the answer. I have been hearing a lot about airflow, tight draw etc. I wanted to know if all the other variables are same what does the airflow affect is on the throat hit, vapor production. Honestly, I don't care about the vapor production as long as I am getting a throat hit (very important).

My wild wild guess, the more airflow means an easier draw but also means less eliquid burnt so less throat hit and less vapors and vice versa.

Thanks in advance for reading.

well, this is just a "theory" of mine, but i think that (considering all other things equal) the more "airy" the vape, the less throat hit.
My reasoning is that a more "airy" vape has a lower percentage of vapor in it compared to a tighter one (i guess). And since its obiously the vapor, not the air wich provides the throat hit, you should get less of it.

Thank you for replying. I think the same but then whats the point of having more airflow....cant you just make a small puff as we used to do with the analogs. Would not it be more near to analogs experience.

There is a balance that one has to find between a draw that is too airy and a draw that is too tight, as both will hinder vapor intake, and thus throat hit. It also comes down to personal preference as to what that perfect middle ground is.
