Dekang just works better.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Over the last couple years since I started vaping, I've tried a variety of PV's. I've used everything from the original Blucigs before then went to cartos up to VV PVs. Carts, cartos, tanks, dripping, etc.

What I've found is that while there are a TON of makers, producing a mind bending variety of flavors, none of them seem to work half as well as Dekang. It seems like given any PV, I'll get twice the leaking, twice the clogging, twice the wicking problems whenever I use something other than Dekang.

Anyone else find the same thing?

Dekang USA Mix @16mg is what I vape all day everyday. As far as the issues you have noted, the USA Mix does seem to clog cartos a little quicker, but it's minty cousin (DK Menthol) however, I have been using it in the same carto for close to 2 months. Of course, their menthol is almost clear as water. As far as wicking... Haven't really noticed any issues that I wouldn't experience with a DK product. And leaking seems to be on par as everyone else too. I have had some that were just amazing that weren't DK. But, they came at a premium that I'm not willing to pay. Hoosier Vapes has some of the best flavored eliquid, but it's $11 for 10ml..... no thanks.

I agree with the OP. I think it's due to Dekang juices being very high in PG, some even 100%. They seem to work on anything, but IMO they don't taste as good as the other vendors.

I agree that they don't taste as good, but for me, Dekang coffee is good enough in terms of flavor. I'm not sure what the deal is, but it has to do with more than the PG. I've ordered plenty of 100% PG juices, and they tend to leak a lot more. Plus, several of them produce little to no visible vapor. Gourmet Vapor RY4 is a perfect example. It taste WAY better than anything from dekang, but it leaks out of just about everything, and it's the ultimate stealth vape. Can't see it, and can't really feel it either.



Care to share what the least problematic juice you've used is, and what you're using it in?

BTW, I've been considering a move to Monmouth after I retire in a few years. Still no alcohol sold within the city limits?

Monmouth has been a great little town for a long time (I grew up there) but it's a much better town now that there's a pub on Main street. Still no liquor store, but restaurants can sell beer and wine, and there's a liquor store in Independence anyway. Sadly, I don't live there anymore. I moved to Salem when I got married last year (totally worth it) but I just haven't updated my profile.

Least problematic juice(s): Vapor Station Tampa and Texas (PG versions), Nite Lite Vapor Twilite and Line Rider, Halo Freedom and Captain Jack. Also, Vape the Rockies juices generally vape clean.

I'm vaping these in Boge-type cartos. The juices are pale in color and thinner than most, that seems to be the requirement to avoid premature clogging.

Sorry my mistake, I believe it's 15ml for $11. That's a little better, but I'm a cheap guy
