Confused and frustrated

[Jupiro]

　
Hello all, I have a few questions about some problems I am having using my Vapor King from V4L and its carts. I first ordered a kit about a month ago and got a pack of Camel 8mg and Strawberry 8mg with it, and some freebees (thank you V4L). When trying the Camel I started to notice that a condition of mine would worsen ( vertigo and unbalanced problems ). I smoke a half a pack a day and it does not make my problems worse. But using the PG Camel would make it very bad every time I took a puff. After reading that some people have reactions to the PG carts, I figured this was what was making my problems worse.
So I put it down for a while. Later I got some VG Camel juice 18mg and some blank carts. Nicely V4L sent me a free cart of Coffee 18mg VG. I used it and loved it ( not the taste, not a fan of flavors ). The cart produced tones of vapor and gave a wonderful throat fill. This was better then a real cig. When I finished it I figured I finally found what I needed which was a 18mg VG. So I filled up my blank cart with the VG 18mg Camel liquid. I let it set for almost a day and then started to use it. I found out that even thou I got tones of vapor, I got no throat fill what so ever, and it felt as if there was no nic. in it at all. It started to make me mad so I put it away. I tried later to fill another cart with some 18mg PG cherry (another freebee). This one was giving the huge throat fill I was looking for, but was not giving any vapor. But again like last time it made fell sick, it must be the PG.
Basically saying I am getting some carts or liquids to give a throat fill with no vapor, and others giving a huge amount of vapor with no throat fill. The only one that worked perfectly was the 18mg VG coffee freebee. For now I have stopped using my Vapor king as it frustrating me. I just ordered some more VG carts because of the Super Sunday special. To make this work for me, I need to use up a pack of carts and then refill them at least once before getting more. But every time I refill them, I run into this problem. 8-o
Thanks for listening and any suggestions. I may not be able to check on this or reply for some time as I have been working a lot lately, but I will check in when I can.

You'll get a quicker response if you post in the V4L sub-forum. Above is a link.
Good Luck.

I am not allowed to post there for some reason. I get a message saying I do not have
permission to post there. I do not understand why. More frustration!

Sorry about not being able to post there. It's because of your low post count. Until you reach something like 10 or 15 (I think), you're stuck in the Newbies sub. Sorry I can't help.

Typically the throat hit is controlled by the amount of pg and nicotine in the juice, however, some flavors will give more throat hit for some reason. I have found that banana from 2 different manufacturers (these are pg liquids) give much higher throat hit than some of their other liquids (strange huh?). You may want to experiment with some sample size juices. BTW vapor4life does stock the same juices they use in their cartos.

The VG has more vapor and the PG has more throat hit,If the vg coffee was good I hope you ordered more of that.I would recomend trying samplers and 5ml bottles until you find what works for you.Oh and 8mg has weaker throat hit than 18mg.the higher the mg the more throat hit usually.Keep trying,it takes time.

Thanks a lot guys for the replies and the info. I have found out that the flavored carts and liquids to give a much bigger throat hit. I have been trying different ones, but just can't take the PGs. VGs are much better for me. However every one that gives a good throat hit is just not given hardly any vapor. I tried cherry and strawberry and both produced little to no vapor. I just hope the new ones I ordered will work fine. I also noticed that the fresh prefilled carts are pretty good; it’s when I try to refill them that things seem to go wrong.
Anyway thanks again I will cont. to try different ones while I can afford to do so.
Happy Puffing

You might want to email Steve at V4L on that - he seems to be really responsive to requests for info and help.

Try adding a little PGA to your mix for a better TH.
