Is this a normal juice reaction.

I have been vaping now since july 5th. Yes it's a nice hobby lol. So i have been threw some different flavors and what not. And i am not a huge vapor user i average maybe a half tank a day sometimes less sometimes a lil more. usually a 12mg nic juice next bottle will be 6mg nic though. As i notice sometimes 12mg can creep up on me pretty fast and wow off to the races i go all speeded out lol.

So to the point i have noticed with all my juices they slowly darken in color as they sit in my tanks. Is this normal? I am not getting any less vapor production or loss of flavor. I really haven't paid attention to this till my latest flavor. Nite Lite vapor Vanilla Strait. This flavor is great taste like sugar cookies and is a 65/35 blend at 12mg. So this juice starts off a nice light redish orange clear color. And by the time it hits half a tank it becomes a dark red barely see threw mahogany color.

So is this normal for juices effected by light and heat from the coils to darken up?

And if so would juices be better off like beer bottles and use dark tinted tanks or solid tanks?

Or finally should i just not care unless flavors changes and it becomes nasty then i know coils are gunked up time to rebuild which i do often anyway.

Darkening is normal - see steeping threads (heat from the coil, aging, exposure to air)

Technically, yeah - juice should be stored in darker bottles (amber or blue, preferably glass)

I'm a light vaper, also...one Evod goes 2 days or a little more. My juice always gets darker the lower it goes. Gunky coils contributes to that some.

Yes i notice when my coils are gunky i am currently using a e-smart waiting for my new ego bats and mini protanks. But i notice the coils are gunked up when the darkness runs down the wicks specially if left on its side for a bit.

But i was just curious the other juices i have used have darkened slighty and mostly do to gunk. Just this juice has been a drastic change over a short period lol.
 
A lot of people just blow through juice so fast that they don't notice it. I've also noticed that it happens more with my evod (bottom-coil) than my CE4's (top-coil). I'm guessing because the evod heat source is at the bottom and heats up the juice as opposed to the top-coil which is not submerge in juice.

Yes that makes alot of sense i was sort of pondering on your comment how the evod would darken juice up since it is basically a dark tank with its sleeve. The BCC heating up the juice explains that lol. These e-smart tanks are nice top coils. even nicer after some tinkering. Dump the flavor wicks and make a slightly lower Ohm coil these lil clearo's can blow your socks off lol. After tweaking this a lil is when i noticed 12mg juices are now a lil to strong. I hope i get the same results out of the mini pro tanks i got coming tomorrow.
