Hey everyone, just got the Smok Majesty Mod Luxe Edition with the TFV12 Prince Sub-Ohm Tank, and using the T10 .012 Ohm Decuple Coil with the Bulb Glass. juice I'm using is 70/30 with 3MG of nicotine. My problem is that I'm not getting anywhere near the clouds I see people get when reviewing this kit. Don't know what I'm doing wrong, would greatly appreciate any advice that I get. Also still new to this, only been vaping for a week and a half now, quit smoking cigs for this. Also vaping at 85 Watts.

Keep in mind too that cloud production is not everything. What I do is run the watts up and down, and then settle for a while with what works best for me. Ultimately it's more about what works for you than what watt number you're vaping at :)

Well, I am not sure that I'd say cloud size is completely irrelevant, but since this is your first setup, I would try different coils, and sure different wattages, and if you desire 100% VG, well, that's obtainable (minus flavors). These will all play a role but the most important thing is whether you are enjoying your vape or not, and if it is helping you transition from smoking. Inhaling enough vapor to do that should be plenty of "cloud" but if you want more cloud, you certainly have options for going after it.

Nobody vapes 100% VG. Its pretty pointless.
No Nic, no flavor. Clouds arent as huge as you might think either, believe me, I tried it.
I guess thats because VG has a comparably high boiling point, which makes two things:
Coil gets hotter then with PG/VG mixes.
Takes more energy to actually vaporise the liquid.

As a result you'll get meh vapor with a slightly burnt taste.

I vape 100% vg... my nicotine has a VG base, I use flavors too (alcohol evaporates).

It's still called max vg or 100% vg, and people vape it daily.

Not pointless... some people have allergies to pg... and avoid it.

despite the lies women tell ...size does matter.....just not so much in vaping.

No... it really really doesnt.

Knowing what your doing is what matters (across the board).. as @AzPlumber so eloquently pointed out.

From experience, the group who believes themselves sizeable sufficient, have never attempted the effort to learn...

Whereas the other group dedicated their lives to learning to make up for some perceived deficiency and became sheer genius..

Lol...

I must be the exception to the former and proof of the latter.:thumb:

You misunderstood me. Yeah, people vape juice with no or very little PG in it. That's not the point.
No one vapes "100%" VG. I don't care what funny defintions Vapers make up, but 100% in itself is a very clear statement. If there is Nicotine, flavors and water in it, its not 100% VG anymore. Simple, no?
"Max VG" is another "yeah, whatever" definition. Could have said x% flavor; x% Nic; x% water, rest VG and everybody would actually know. But no; appearently thats too much info.

Sorry for the rambling; but as a Chemist this makes me cringe.

Well if your nic is in a PG base, and lets say you use flavoring crystals or something.... The liquid itself would be 100% VG with things in it. But, you are correct, a miniscule percentage would be made up of nicotine molecules and flavoring compounds.... Even if it was close to 100% VG, and since it DOES have other things in it, it's hard to "call" it 100% VG, I do prefer the term "max" VG. Although I am sure that someone, somewhere, vapes max VG (no nic, no flavors) although I'd imagine it's more prevalent at cloud chasing competitions, or when someone has decided to start "punishing" themselves for vaping and needs the hand to mouth action and not much else... LOL.
