So I have Kamry100W with a Crown uwell Sub-Ohm Dual coil 0.5ohm, right? So I usually vape at 40W-60W. Still everytime I vape with it I feel like the vapor condensates in the back of my throat. And when I gather saliva in my mouth I can taste it perfectly. It is NOT GETTING E-juice in mouth! Happened before, totally different! I just want to know if this could be dangerous or not! I really would prefer to not change my settings for vaping since its the only way I can stay away from Cigs, still if this condensation of PG/VG-nic-flavor in the back of my throat is in any way dangerous I would obviously stop! Please, I would prefer educated answers with links to any documentation I could read. Please take no offense in my last sentence, none was intended. I just really want an answer.

Yes that is mentioned in the specifications of the Tank. But those are the tank materials. Isn't the Pg in some type of way poisonous to humans? I mean if there wasn't anything dangerous I technically could drink it out of the bottle, but there is a reason we can't and if those chemicals have not dissipated by the time it reaches my throat then is my body absorbing(For a lack of better word (i'm hispanic)) them?

I know that's not really backed up with any science, but without knowing what flavor, from what company, and what the chemical make up of that recipe is no one is going to be able to give you a definitive answer.

The best I can do is, "Hey, it's better than smoking."

That being said, you should be fine.

Sorry, I couldn't be of more help.

Naaah you're all good man. To be honest, the ingredients in e-juice are technically safer to ingest orally than vaporized (if you just look at how long VG/PG/the flavorings have been used in human history).

That said, the nicotine is the one technically "toxic" element in e-juice, and you'd know if you were over-nic'ing because you'd be feeling very buzzed, lightheaded, perhaps nauseous. Unless you're experiencing side-effects like that, you're not getting nearly enough condensation in your mouth for it to be an issue.

All good, vape on brutha!

The only thing in juice you shouldn't swallow is the nicotine. All the other ingredients in the juice are actually food grade flavorings and preservatives. You can find all of them in your pantry at home most likely. The danger from the creamy/custardy flavors comes from a chemical reaction that happens when you heat the flavorings to a gaseous state. But 99.999% of anything in the juice is going to be perfectly safe (and FDA approved, I might add) to ingest orally.

hmm Usually a full tank, The crown I have now I think is 5ml, My nic is at 12mg. I do feel a bit of a buzz and lightheadedness sometimes. I did just get the Crown today but was previously vaping with the Matrix Sub-Ohm. same ohm resistance and wattage aplied.

Never have felt nauseous though.

I do plan on lowering my nic levels. Since it is making each puff harsher.

So If my E-juice had no Nicotine in it, I could drink it? Thats kinda hard to wrap my head around.

PG, Vg and flavoring are food additives and safe for ingestion in small amounts. PG and VG are used in more products of daily consumption than I could possibly list. Drinking the juice would likely result in nausea, vomiting and ........ depending on the amount you drank and nicotine content (due to the nicotine).
VG used to be used for baking recepies as well. Drinking larger amounts of VG causes a laxative body reaction.

Yeah I started feeling that the first couple of days, but I didnt want to order 6mg and let the 12mg go to waste. What with the economy and all xD naw Im kidding but still, my next flavors should be 6mg. I just quit smoking cigs so I'm winding it down little by little!

It may be a little late, but in the future if you want to cut down your e-liquid nic levels just buy the same flavor in a lower nic. The calculations are pretty straightforward, ie: take 30mL of 6mg nic and cut it with 30mL of 0mg nic = 3mg nic total.
