Juice not giving a thick, flavorful vape like before??

[M_DuBb716]

Hey guys, I'm having some problems lately with my favorite e-juice. It's not giving me a good thick vapor like I'm used to from it, and this is diminishing the flavor, throat hit, and just that great feeling of exhaling a huge thick cloud of vapor.. It's a Marshmallow flavor at 14mg Reduced-PG.

When I first started using it (with Ego T2 Clearo's on 1.8ohm wicks, VV battery), I would get a huge thick satisfying cloud of vapor that delivered a mouthful of delicious marshmellowy flavor and great throat hit.. Now it seems like I'm getting wayy less vapor, and what's more noticable is how much thinner the vapor is. This almost completely takes away my flavor and throat hit.

At first I thought it was a problem with my Ego T2, but after trying new coils, new TANKS, and every trick there is for the clearos - not much improvement. I knew it wasn't my equipment when I just tried putting the same juice in a brand-new cartomizer, with not much difference.

I'm thinking it's my juice?? I get it at my local vape shop that has excellent juices, and one of the workers gives me extra-flavor if I ask. The first time I got the juice with extra flavor (2 bottles ago), it was giving me great thick vapor and excellent flavor. Than the bottle after that, the worker wasn't there so I couldn't get extra flavor, this is when I really began noticing these problems.
.... And now yesterday I got a new bottle with extra-flavor again (made by the worker I know who always makes it right for me), expecting the thick flavorful vape to come back, but nothing!! Still about the same!

It has to be my juice right, if it was about the same in a carto?? Thanks in advance

VG content ? what percentage.... PG give the flavor, but VG gives the clouds; most juice makers have the right ratio... but some love lots of VG for vapor and some are allergic to too much PG or VG....
so in your case if its the juice, i'd find out the ratio of PG to VG

And it's not that I'm getting used to the flavor and TH.. I've been vaping for almost 4 months now and have been using this flavor since I started, nicotine level hasn't changed. And all of a sudden my vape quality has diminished to the point where I'm starting to crave cigarettes again.. I'm thinking maybe my store got a crappy batch of nicotine?? Or made some changes to their juice formulas?

Maybe it's my battery? I did get a new battery about 3 weeks ago, it's a 1300mah Variable Voltage (Ego Twist knock-off, but works better than the Twist).. My 1st battery was also an Ego-knockoff and worked great til I bent and broke it, it was an 900mah 3.7volt XL battery, identical to the Ego.

well it could be the new carto as well you might have to use more voltage then you were on the first one the ohms are always a little different one each one even tho they label them the same i have bought 1.8 attys that were more like 3.2ohms they are almost never exactly what they should be.it could also be they are using a different pg/vg mix then they were before i would ask them if anything has changed.

Thanks ukeman. When I go to the store I ask for Reduced-PG, I can ask for exact VG/PG ratios but I don't so I'm not sure if it's 50/50 or what. I'm pretty sure I asked the guy who usually makes my juice, to just mix it so it burns the best on my Ego Clearomizers.. That was about a month ago though, maybe he forgot and started making my juice differently? If I go in tomorrow and ask him I'm sure he'll remember how he made my juice yesterday, especially because I'm applying for a job there right now.. Should I ask for more VG maybe 60/40 next time?

Thanks jazon.. I actually had to lower the voltage a bit when I tried it with the carto to keep it from tasting burnt. But still not the thick, flavorful vape I'm used to. Maybe I should put this flavor away for a few days and let it steep (it's mixed for me when I order it in the store). I'll definitely be asking my vape store if they've made any changes to their juices, they did just drop the prices

 

[ukeman]

yeah I would especially if you are getting extra flavor to make up for any loss due to more VG, but usually 50/50 is a good blend... which leads me think it could be something else.
it takes a while to get the hang of it ... but hang in there... before long you'll get exactly what you want out of vaping.

Thanks for the advice, I don't know what I'd do without ECF. I'd probably be smoking cigs already, I'll keep you updated
