Ore try reducing Heavy vaping sessions. Some people have this feeling from steam. (Shower/steam room)
Lungs prefer oxygen ;)

ETA: and Yes, after some heavy vaping or a Long day of lounging and vaping all day, I get that. Passes for me after a few minutes of Deep Breathing.

Chipotle.
I've been blowing large clouds for over a year and I run all of my daily setups at over 100W(Around 500-550mW/mm², for those who use heat flux) and I notice zero heavy lung feeling, and this is with juice 80VG/20PG or higher in VG. Perhaps I've become used to it over time, but I'm pretty much free to inhale as long and hard as I wish without feeling any sort of adverse effects.

has anyone at some point had chest pains from vaping. Not so much deep pains but I seem to get an annoying heavy lung feeling from blowing big clouds. Anyone had anything similar before?

Never.

One of the guys I work with has mentioned a heavy feeling in his chest but he was way overdoing his nic level. What strength are you using? I'm at 3 mg / ml which I really can barely detect if tootle puffing but I get the familiar nic buzz blowing clouds.

the only time i ever got that painful chest feeling was when i was chainvaping on clearomizers/tanks/rdas with restricted airflow (like 1-2mm airhole slits). I think it had something to do with too much pressure constantly. Ever since I swapped to RDA's with more unrestricted airflow I dont have that problem anymore. Maybe you are just sucking too hard and too often while vaping? dont take that the wrong way:lol::lol::lol:

I've never had anything similar, but that doesn't in any way detract from your experience.

We are all different and will react differently.

All I'd say is if your current vaping style is not suiting you change it.

Perhaps with a different PG/VG balance, or even raising the nic level while moving over to tootlepuffing. You may miss this clouds, but find it a pleasent vape (like so many of us do) without the chest issue.

Too much vg.

Back when I first started I tried vaping straight vg, and that was on a little v-nano cigalike thingy, and I used to get heavy lungs; it was not just annoying, it was downright scary.
