Johnson's Creek: PG/VG vs 100% VG

[Slipshod Cavalier]

I'm using a Kanger ProTank 2 on an Ego C Twist. I tried some of the Johnson's Creek Red Oak Tennessee Cured, which is part of their all VG line. I liked the flavor, but it wreaked havoc on my wicks. I did some research, and it sounds like this is pretty common with that juice. I've been thinking of trying some of Johnson's Creek regular line. I believe they're a 70/30 mix. Has anyone had this same experience? Is the regular line as hard on coils?

all VG should only be used on high end rebuildables or it messes with your silica and coils. Also, some PG enhances the flavour.

The odd thing is, juices from AVE haven't given me any trouble at all, and they're noticeably thicker than Johnson's Creek's 100% VG.

I am currently vaping with a sampler pack from Johnson's Creek. None of them were of the Red Oak line(100% VG). My coils have been burning up in matter of days with these juices. I have a Kanger Protank II mini, 2.5ohm coil, voltage has varied greatly as my coil starts to go bad.

I really enjoyed the flavors, but the trouble the caused with PV isn't worth it. I will probably never order from Johnson's Creek again.

I vape a 50\50 mix of JC original\red oak tenn cured in a cartotank. It was my first 'all day vape' and still is in my all day rotation even though I have moved more into DIY.

I don't really have issues with it in my cartotank. I easily get between 10-20 mls thru a smok 2ohm single coil 2hole punched carto.

True, however I've had luck with "one note" flavors like menthol and cinnamon roll from MBV in a "Max VG" blend from them. I mainly vape slotted cartos in my phiniac, but both those juices work in an EVOD or similar bottom feed clearo. But, I will mention I had to pull a wick or 2 out for proper wicking to the coil. JC tundra I can rant and rave about, but JC's juices kill whatever I put it in. The best luck I've had with it was in a Cisco dripping atty. other than that, I'm SOL.

Dang, that's a shame. I wonder if it's something in the flavorings JC uses.

Hey Cavalier,
Have not done the Johnson's Creek all VG,
but the higher VG blends I do have, do mess with the wicks/coils.
Cleaning/rebuilding is more frequent with the higher Vg......

I am fan of JC also. I like tobacco flavors and the Domestic and Tennessee Cured are among the best, and the only ones I have found that do not have a chemical test and I have tried HHV and Halo. They work well in my clearomizer but I have to clean and dry burn after awhile. However, they do kill my eRoll atomizers fairly quickly. Trade off.
