Does high VG juice burn faster?

I would have guessed higher vg juice to last longer. What's the reason?
I don't really know, but that's my experience with it.
VG has a higher viscosity and a slightly lower boiling point, I would imagine those are contributing factors.

PG boils at about 360 -380 F. VG around 550 F. Water at 212 F.
I think atomized VG particles tend to be larger as they are heavier.

Yeah sorry, vaporizing....Still getting some of the terminology nailed down since getting off the stinky sticks...
For me personally it is the opposite, the more VG the slower I go through juice. For example, most of the time I make my own juice and for months I was vaping about 80 VG, 20 PG, however for the past 3 weeks or so I have vaped 90 VG, 10 PG and I noticed my aromamizer tanks go though juice a bit slower with more VG.
Might have to do with the wick you are using though. I strictly use Rayon to wick all my coils. Rayon is very absorbent and may be more efficient going through the thicker juice at a slower rate.

You may be right. The general perception I have gleaned from the forum is that
VG seems to vape at a faster rate. This may be due to higher powered devices,
the meteoric rise in the popularity of VG and,new vapors.

Yea I only vape at 30 watts 0.3 ohm dual coil. But most others that are sub ohming with high vg do go up much higher I would say at least 60w but not uncommon for guys approaching and going past 100. Vg provides a cooler and smoother vape to go to higher wattages. Only pg in my recipes is in the flavoring meaning I make juice with as much as 98 percent VG 
If you make your own juice it's not as big of a deal burning through a tank quickly at least.

When I use a Sub Ohm tank with .5Ω coil at 65 to 75 watts in TC I use very little e-Liquid compared to 11-12 watts and a 1.6Ω coil. I only make high or max VG DIY e-Liquids and any store bought are a minimum of 70/30 VG/PG.
I have to assume that I can't chain vape with a Sub Ohm without getting lightheaded but I can drain a Nautilus Mini and not get a rush.
I just checked my coils after about a month, a little carbon on them but not that bad. Since everything was open up I just replaced the coils. I just began making my own e liquid and have a RY4 tobacco flavor in the tank and I've noticed I no longer get a brown ring at the bottom of the tank, I'm using 80 PG with 20 VG because I've heard the PG carries the flavor. I'd like to get lots of flavor and the least amount of carbon build up.
80% PG? That must be like water and has a throat hit I can't imagine! What nicotine level do you make or use?
Right now I'm at 9 mg, I went from 18 to 12 and am now using 9 mg. Cutting down the nicotine is easy since I go by the flavor I get. I compare it to a pipe I used to smoke and the throat hit is the same sensation I get from the pipe. I find the tank used causes the most difference. The Vaporesso tank is the best, the e Leaf Pico has good atomizers and the Kanger tank is the worst.
The 80 20 mix comes from a premade liquid I bought and liked.

I have never seen store bought e-Liquid with over a 60/40 VG/PG ratio. Are you sure you mean 80% PG?
Really? I have a couple bottles of 80/20 and there are places that sell e juice that is 100% VG...
Yes HIGH VG but he is saying 80% PG. I would love to see a picture of the bottle showing 80% PG
A lot of juice vendors allow you to customize the PG/VG ratio. You can get 100% PG if you wanted. Tasty Vapor is one example.
That is custom ratio you order and yes I know that but I was talking about store bought and 80% PG. I questioned if the the person who posted they have 80% PG was sure about it and others here are confusing the question.
