ejuice dark vs light?

[PatrickReza]

im wondering if juices with darker colour (for example johnson creek) is worse for your attys than
light colour (usa blend)?

do they kill your attys faster?
why are they so dark?
are they thicker?

I am not sure about atomizers, but the dark juices, especially chocolate flavors, clog my cartomizers 2-10 times faster than light colored juices.

Same comment about the clogging. Both myself and my mother in law use root beer from Tasty Vapor and have found that it really hoses up our atty's after a day. They're fine after a good soaking in alcohol but still messy....

I'd have to say the darker ones do clog up my carto's quicker, so I would assume it would be the same with atty's. Sometimes I mix my darker juices with a lighter one of compatible taste to 'thin it out' a bit. Seems to help a little.

Got a bunch of juice I've been using from Tasty Vapor and they're almost all dark. I need to start cleaning my atty's regularly so they last longer. I've haven't been having good luck with atty's lately.

I absolutely agree. The darker the juice, the faster my atty clogs up.

From my expierence juices that are more black than anything else gunk up my atomizers very quickly, regardless of the Pg/Vg content of the mix. Although, the higher the VG it seems to kill my atomizer even faster than higher Pg mixes. I know some people beg to differ and claim that dark juice is not the culprit but instead it is the VG content, sweetener and even some oil based flavorings that vendors like to add to their liquids.

This is why I usually like to stick with around 20%VG, juices that are very light almost clear in color and do not contain sweetener. With that in mind, I have atomizers last me in upwards of 6 months without ever cleaning them, soaking them or dry burning them.
