Do different brands of E-liquid make you feel different?

[Kinalyx]

Ive been vaping for about 2.5 years, pretty much staying with the same flavors from the same vendors for the most part. I started with V2 everything, including their pre filled peppermint carto's. At some point the mix changed and the flavor just wasnt good anymore. I then went to blanks and using pink spot vapors candy cane liquid. Just this weekend i got some Mr e-liquid flavors(Green Van & Snow day).

About 24 hours or so after i started using the Mr. e-liquid stuff i started feeling funny, kinda light headed, uneasy stomache, just all around strange. I dont want to just decide its the liquid, but i cant think of anything else it would be.

Anyone have any ideas?

When you got your liquid from Mr. E-liquid, did you increase the nicotine mg/mL? Light headedness, upset stomach, among others, are a sign of increased nicotine intake.

Thats what i was thinking. Everything ive used since i started has been 12mg nicotine. I ordered the same from Mr E-liquid. I guess its somewhat possible that they filled with a higher nic level?

Hmm, I'm not really sure, never tried Mr. E-liquid. I've heard they're quite good so I'm assuming they have good QC. Perhaps someone with experience there could pipe in. It could be that the consistency (PG/VG) is different to what you're used to and vapes faster, i.e. more vapor = more nicotine.

Whatever the case, drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. If need be take it easy on that juice and switch back to what works for you until you can narrow down the culprit.

Feel better!

I will also say that the Mr E-liquid is also MUCH thicker by comparison to the pink spot im used to using. I dont know what that really means, if anything, but i thought i would share.

What PG/VG ratio do you prefer to use? If the Pink Spot works well for you, what ratio is it? Then compare that to the Mr. E-liquid and post the results.

It could simply be a difference in the nicotine. Nicotine varies in actual strength, so it's possible what you're used to was advertised as 12mg but it was actually 8-10 whereas the new liquid you're vaping is exact, or as close as can be.

pink spot shows their standard blend being 60% VG and 40% PG, while The Mr e-liquid i got was 33% VG. From what ive seen most e-liquid vendors use 20-40% vg. Im really surprized that Pink Spot uses 60% VG.

im really confused at this point. Pink spot uses much more VG in their blend, and VG is a thickening agent. Pink spot is also MUCH thinner than the Mr.E stuff.

Hey all just joined as my stuff ran out. currently on Jacvapour Vgo2 and it great. Helped me quit smoking! PS. Beware of local homemade liquids. Tested once and it tasted like strepsils, vicks , and some trash mixed into it. VG tastes the best IMO 70%VG 30%PG = perfection!

I've noticed that if I use a higher pg juice that I get almost like heartburn and a vurp feeling in my throat. Haven't had any issues with a 70vg blend. Could be a combo of the 2 a different pg/vg blend and a different strength of nicotine

Most quality high VG liquids are thinned with distilled ionized water. I personally vape only 100% VG and depending on the vendor it can range from slightly thicker to very thin. Dripping some Velvet Cloud Night Shift right now and couldn't be happier

i STARTED mixing mine with lower nicotine 10mg and less PG .cause I was feeling really ill.all better now .try lower nicotine and lowest PG u can get.
I also try to use 100% kosher VG.I got it from The Bulk Apothecary.

 

[erinarthur222]

VURP! lol

Pink spot is a really thin 50/50..I don't think they use sucrose/actual sugars like my other 50/50 vendor.. Pink spot vapors is 50/50.

If the Mr. E stuff has more PG that could be it. I have a Allergy to PG. The systoms sound close to the ones I had with PG. A little PG in the mix and I was fine. Once the ratio got over 30 % or so I started feeling sick.

Right from Pink Spots website under Faqs

Yep! Our standard blend is 60% VG and 40% PG. Just let us know what customizations you would like in the “Order Notes” section during checkout, and we’ll create your bottles the way you want. We can not, however, create 100% VG eJuice containing nicotine, as our nicotine is PG based.

I will say that the Mr E-liquid definitely feels like a wetter vapor as well. If i exhale mostly thru my nose, its fine with the pink spot, and almost feels like i have a runny nose with the Mr. E.

I get the same thing with too much pg. Yucky feeling

 

[Kinalyx]

Im still trying to find a peppermint e-liquid i really like. I was happy with Pink Spot for a long time, but its gotten quite weak in the last few orders. I was going to* try V4L peppermint, but its apparently mostly PG as well.
