Does distilled water make your vapor more "moist"?

When i was using max vg I did not use 10% dw. I only used 2%. And i added the saline to that 2%. Worked great.

Does that have *Benzalkonium Chloride ?

*Do not use in body orifices, ear canals, eyes or mouth.

No, it is just a water and sodium chloride solution.

Assuming the 50 is VG, the 40 is PG and the 10 is DW, that would be some mighty thin juice. I imagine you would need some hellacious wicking to keep that from leaking which is why I never tried it.

I agree though, that adding DW makes the PG and VG compounds more resistant to thermal degradation. That was my hypothesis back in January and was subsequently tested by ECF's very own Mikepetro in April. My hypothesis seemed to have been proven in his testing. Just out of curiosity I wouldn't mind seeing the Italian report. Also when was this study conducted? It would be TOO funny if they got the idea from Mike and I and the above linked posts.

You assume correctly, that's why I opt for 50/45/5, 5 generally being nicotine in water.
This way the liquid is thin but not insanely so and I still get a bit of health benefits.
I'm out and about, I'll look up for that research as soon as I can!

I have an Italian study on this one and if you wish I can translate it for you. Going for 50/40/10, 10 being double-distilled water that you can get for a penny at a pharmacy, the vaporization process is able to start more easily and at a lower temperature. That makes the possibility of chemical heat-related reactions between pg/vg and flavours much scarcer, hence the profit
Plus the liquid you obtain this way is easier on the coils.

As a matter of fact most medical vaporizers use saline solution rather than PG on their liquids. Used by kids!

Ah! gotcha. Thanks.
