Throat hit can be achieved in many ways. PGA a few drops in your juice or a higher nic content juice and even voltage will play a role.

I hear you! I as well could not rid myself of analogs until I got my 510. I haven't had one since. I have been vaping for 40 days and smoke free for 26.

Although, I vape at 18-20mg during the day, I vape 24mg with my morning coffee. RY4 dripped in the morning was what suited me, 10-12 good hits or until I got a mild buzz, then I just vaped normally. Whatever you do, the 510 is the atty to give you that great throat hit in comparison with others. My morning fix is still 24mg but only 5-8 hits now. BTW as my taste buds heal, I now find the stock RY4 too sweet and use the RYO version.

vaping on a direct USB passthru at 5V will definitely increase TH, as well as a high mah battery at 3.7V.

Last but not least, the atomizer. The stock 510 at 2-2.5 Ohms, is awesome in comparison with ht eclones at 3-3.5 Ohms. Having said that, I have a clone 3.6 Ohm atty that vapes like a champ on a stock 510 battery, but not so good on the PT.

Menthol is what gave me that punch in the throat and got me over the need for a ciggy. I never smoked menthol cigarettes, but love menthol! I bought some menthol crystals from ebay, ground them up (in a baggie, and rolled a drinking glass over it until it powders) and mixed them with some Pure Grain Alcohol to melt them. I put it in a dropper bottle, and add it to my liquid (you can add menthol to almost anything). Zam! Throat hit!

Here is the complete thread with terrific instructions and measurements.

I have had my 510's for 2 months, still dragging on those analogs. I have decided that my problem is lack of throat hit, really don't care how much vapor is produced, just need that hit. Any suggestions?:confused:

ECF fan, some of you guys are hilarious!

The biggest TH I had were some XXHigh Nic flavors I bought on the classifieds. (I didn't read the nic level.. hehe) Too strong for me, had me hacking like a cat with a fur ball.

If you PM me your addy, I'll send you some in a sample bottle and you can see if that makes a difference.

(vaped these using the 510. Also, I found that the 808 has less TH, but YMMV)

IMO it is the voltage that increases the throat hit. I was getting a mild throat hit with the 510. Then I got a mod. and this increased (I also use 36 mg. eliquid) I always used tobacco flavors but recently tried atomic cinnacide from Tasty Vapor and it gives a great throat hit. As a matter of fact with the 3.7 or 6.0 volts the throat hit is rather hard.

YES! EVEN if you're NOT a menthol smoker, the menthol E liquid is AWESOME in my book. It gives the best throat hit. I use a tad of tobacco absolute and it tastes like a menthol cig. K cartomizers are good too. You might also try a 5v mod. I have a prodigy v2 5v and it works great (some switch issues which seem to be resolved) .
