I'm using an Aegis mini and I have a habit of drawing the vape right to my throat. I've tried to keep a it in my mouth and then blow out, but I often forget and go back to deep vapes. Is there a vape device out there which will be gentler on my throat, maybe something that makes it harder to take throat hits? I enjoy vaping but having a sore throat is becoming a real problem.
Are there any vapes that are easy on the throat?

Try a tank made for mtl (mouth to lung) I can't recommend anything since I vape dl but hopefully some mtl vapers will come along to help. Maybe look into Innokin. I've heard they have good tanks and mods for mtl. Good luck!
Harsh hits are a mostly a sign of user error.
Using a Mtl inhale when using a delivery device designed for Dtl inhale method.
Insufficient airflow. airflow is the coil's cooling system.
Too much power - resulting in dry or burnt hits.
Scorched or burnt wicking material, especially continuing to use a replaceable coil head with wicking material that is scorched or burnt, or wicking in an RBA of some sort that is scorched or burnt.
Too high Nic mg/ml.
Possible sensitivity to Pg or flavorings.

I'm trying to not to inhale the vaper but it's hard because it is such an engrained habit. Thanks for the help.
If you mix our own juice, Nude Nicotine has a reduced 'throat hit' variety. I use it and like it, I am not a fan of throat hit.
1. Switch to VG only juice. It's much gentler on your throat than PG.
2. Use nicsalt instead of freebase (standard) nicotine.

Hi,
How long did you smoke? How many per day?
What vapes have you used? What did you use before the Aegis?
What tank is on the Aegis?
What is the nicotine level of the juice you use? PG/VG levels?
Which flavor are you using?
What is the resistance of the coil you are using?
What is the wattage you are using?
How old is the coil?
Cheers

Oh yeah, is VG only nicsalt sold? I googled an online shop but got no hits.
Do you think the Geekvape Wenax Stylus is good with my sore throat concerns? Im thinking of trying that.
It's a combination of the juice and the atty you're using, which you haven't said what it is. The particular mod really doesn't make as much difference as what kind of tank you're using. And its nicotine and PG which give the throat hit and burning sensation in the throat. I'm gonna call user error here as well. Tell us what type of tank you have on your mod and tell us about the juice you are using. And for the record, nic salt can be used with any device. There are no nic salt only devices. It's kinda dumb to use a high strength nic with a high wattage setting but there are those that do that with impunity. But in your case, it would be helpful if you let us know more about your set up.
I wrote about my setup a couple posts up. I probably screwed up in the formatting so ithit might be hard to see. I vape 12 mg free base and it's the Cerberus 25mm sub ohm tank.
The Cerberus tank is designed for a Dtl inhale method, trying to use a Mtl inhale method with just about any delivery device/tank designed for Dtl is going to give harsh to very harsh hits.
Doesn't matter if you use high Vg % or nic salts as a way to smooth it out.
Using Mtl inhale on a Dtl 'tank' you are defeating and rendering the tank/delivery device cooling system useless, end up with harsh sometimes hot vapor.
Mtl - steady light to medium strength smoother longer inhale, similar to taking a drag from cigarette, collect vapor in mouth then either inhale or blow out without inhaling.
If this is what you like best you need a delivery device/tank designed for Mtl vaping.
Dtl - strong rapid deep inhale, moving a lot of air through the delivery device in a short time, pulling the vapor from the delivery device directly into your lungs.
The 12 mg/ml nic in a Dtl delivery device is also considered high which will also increase harshness. Most folks use 6 mg/ml or less with Dtl.
If you want to vape using a Mtl inhale method ( smooth light to medium inhale strength collecting vapor in mouth, then either inhale or blow out without inhaling ) you need a tank/delivery device designed for Mtl vaping.
Innokin Zenith or Zlide would be two good examples of Mtl tanks / delivery devices.

How long did you smoke? How many per day?
10 years. Pack a day.
What vapes have you used? What did you use before the Aegis?
I used so many devices. Most broke within a month a use. Tried many small devices so I could covertly vape at work.
What tank is on the Aegis?
Geek Vape Cerberus 25mm Sub-Ohm tank, which features the Super Mesh X2 Coil System
What is the nicotine level of the juice you use? PG/VG levels?
12mg/ml , 80 vg 20 pg
Which flavor are you using?
Tobacco one and fruit flavor one. I switch back and forth.
What is the wattage you are using?
25
How old is the coil?
1 week
As noted by @Anise and @Topwater Elvis , that may not be the "right" tank for you and your style of vaping.
Cheers

It is expensive to get the Zenith. Maybe I'll just get a new device. Can you recommend any small devices that are good for mouth to lung and good with nicotine salt. I like to vape at work so I think going for a small devices will be best for me. Thanks for your post, by the way.
Salt should behave the same in a device as unprotonated. It has different (no) steeping behavior I understand but the device shouldn’t matter. When I get harsh hits it’s usually because my coil and wick are really dirty. That might be another factor.
I certainly agree with that, I cleaned and re-wicked just this morning - what a pleasant change.
Try a justfog minifit or vaporesso podstick. They are low wattage which should help. It will depend on the juice to. I do not use nic salts, but they should be smoother in theory. In the devices I listed above, I am not sure how well they would do with a high vg juice. But with the low wattage, I think you would be ok with a 50/50 nic salt
