Another newbie question from me, apologies if it annoys anyone....
My friend is a science major and he told me the following when i told him i am using a Kanger subtank nano with a 0.5 ohm coil:
"you are vaping at a very high wattage, these are wattage settings that are not safe for consumers, most do not know about it, and the standard and safe vaping range for most is 6w-10w. Many E liquids are made for optimal performance within that range. People vape above 10W because they want to get more cloud, and when you want more cloud, companies just put a crap load of VG in their liquid so it gives insane vapor but you have to vape it at above 10 or 15w to even get the juice to vape well
If you look at the liquids referenced they use 50%-80% VG. VG needs high temp to vape, doesn't vape well in standard mods and needs high watts to vape to get flavor, that is why you can "taste" them better at higher watts.Not many people carry a sub ohm tank and a battery that can go up to 8V. 10W and above is burning the eliquid. At 7-8W you will get a good hit and a good cloud. It will not be insane cloud, but compared to normal smoking its better cloud. VG is like oil and dulls the taste and sweetens everything, and you have to heat it a lot, to get flavor, but thus it becomes hazardous to the persons health."
He also said regarding flavors in ejuice:
"In addition, a lot of the flavors out there are produced with chemicals that are known to be toxic or they are finding to be toxic (anything with cream, butter and cinnamon flavors are red flags for now), and will eventually be dropped and banned by the FDA."
He seems to know what he is talking about and he has got me reaching for my old skool clearomizer with the dry hits and ego pen style battery.
Can forum members offer me some insights and guidance on these two points. Much appreciative of your time.
