Hi fellow vapers,
I'm relatively new to vaping.
I have few Kanger T3 clearos

I currently use a PG/VG 60/40 juice.
Some people say VG has a more niceer flavour/texture to the vape.

I'm not sure.

I thought of geting a PG/VG mixes like the following 50/50, 40/60, 70/30, 80/20, or 100% VG with traces of PG.

But I'm not sure which one will be good and shipping costs a lot for my country (so sampling is kinda out of the question)
and most importantly how will my Kanger T3 perform with thinker juices.

Any help for me to choose the correct combination from you guys is highly appreciated.

Cheers

I'm sure someone can give you info on how it will react with Kanger, but I haven't used it so I don't know.

As for flavor/texture, the higher VG with give thicker vapor, but PG actually carries flavor more and gives the throat hit.

I don't think you have to order that wide of a range of vg/pg mixes to get a idea of what you like. If you're vaping PG/VG 60/40 now, then on your next juice just try a higher VG to PG ratio and you'll get an idea of what VG can add to your vape and then fine tune from there. One thing you'll always be buying is more juice and each purchase you can play with it till you get it to your perfect vape.

I prefer a LOT of vapor and a light throat hit, so I order all my commercial juices 20PG/80VG, and that's also how I mix all my DIY. I LOVE the way it vapes (falvorful, smooth and TONS of vapor), and it wicks very well in everything I own, from Vivi Novas to CE5s to Kanger T3s, to my Phoenix and Drunker tanks to my new Terminator-C RBA.

In fact is wicks so well in my Tanger T3 that the darn thing leaked like a sieve the first time I filled it up. I don't blame the juice--I blame the Tanger, but that's another thread. Once I figured out the issue, it worked well...

I am sensitive to PG so I always go with a low or zero PG mix. So far I am getting a decent TH which varies somewhat by the juice. So far it has been working fine, but I plan on picking up some PGA to thin my juice down a bit if it seems too viscous.

I wish I could use PG because the small amount of high PG juice that I have tried is nice. It just makes my throat feel like it is full of hair.

Try some various mixtures. Cutting down on the PG might prolong the time before you become sensitive to it. It took me many years of smoking Captain Black (loaded with PG) from a pipe before I developed the allergy.

I kinda like the idea of getting some 100% VG and also some 100% PG. You get to experiment with the extremes and you'll also quickly figure out if you're sensitive to one or the other. You could also mix them to experiment with a blend.

The VG produces more vapor with less TH, but you can still achieve the TH by cranking up the volts on a VV battery.
