Am I the only person who prefers PG over VG?

The only 'all VG' liquids Ive really loved are the ones cignot does BASIC and Ecopure - the rest I can take or leave. I like the PG ones, (the all PG ones, the part PG ones) though (lol) but some other 'all VG' I have found leave my tongue coated; PG doesn't SEEM to do this as much (and the ones I mentioned above dont do it at all either).

Although I like lots of Vapor, I think the VG may cause shortness of breath so I'm using a lot less of it. This is just an observation so I wish someone would do an intensive study on all this so we can be more confident that what we're vaping is safe.

Do you realize we have no information so far concerning the safety or harm of all the juices we vape?

We also have no idea what are the 'real' ingredients of any of the juices we buy. Selling e-juices is unregulated so we have no built-in safeguards.

When I first started vaping I discovered that a 100% PG juice gives me horrible dry mouth. I aquired some 50mg / ml PG juice and mixed up my own combo with a flavoring containing 34% alcohol, which contibutes a lot to the TH. I used standard Humco glycerine to cut the high strength nic juice and I've finally arrived at a total formula that works very well for me. I mix it in 20ml batches for each flavor, with the proportions as follows:

10ml of 50mg PG juice
4ml flavoring (containing 34% grain alcohol)
6ml VG

This gives me a 70% PG / 30% VG juice with awesome TH and satisfying vapor. It doesn't gunk up my attys and works well with my current cart mod. Also, unlike pure PG juice, I don't get the dry mouth at all with the addition of the VG at 30%. :D

I don't know what % Ms. T uses for Bananas Foster coffee 80/20 maybe, but that one has and keeps the flavor, vapor and throat hit. I also like the mix tasty vapor has in the butter rum 80/20 again a monster. I also think some flavorings need higher pg to have any throat hit. Alien Visions 18mg Bobas in straight vg had the same effect as the first two in mentioned. I can vape either pg/vg as long as it works with the flavoring. I do tend to go to the higher nic juices 24mg-36mg. I tweak them a little, to taste.

I definitely prefer PG. throat hit, flavor, viscosity... all things PG has the advantage on. The only all VG juice I like is Raths blueberry pancakes, but the stuff makes a 510 atty worthless in about 1 day, it starts clogging, leaking, and giving very weak hits until I toss the atty in the 'jacked up by VG' bin and put the juice away again for a week until I feel like killing another 510
