Mouth-To-Lung Inhale and PG

[we87]

So I was a half pack a day smoker for a little over ten years. Always puffed or smoked analogs mouth to lung. Now that I have been vaping for almost two years I still puff my vape mouth to lung, but can't do a lot of PG in my liquids. I prefer 30% pg but I can vape 50/50 usually just fine.

I always see these guys that prefer more PG in their liquids, and I'm sure it has a lot to do with flavor and carrying the nicotine, but everybody wants that throat hit. I'm guessing they used to smoke ciggarettes straight to lung? Is that where the throat hit crave comes from? In my circle of buddies, all the smokers try out my Vape. None of my buds crave that throat hit like I hear other people do.

So bottom line, my question is: people who like PG and prefer throat hit: did you used to smoke cigarettes straight to lung? Or did you also mouth to lung inhale? Just curious.

I smoked over a pack a day for 37 years and never did a lung hit. Never met anyone else who lung hit on a cigarette. The only thing we ever lung hit back in the day was that which shall remain censored.

I vape 50/50 or 70pg mainly for flavor. I enjoy throat hit but that is probably 90% a result of nic level. Try vaping 12mg vs 24mg and I'm fairly certain the difference in TH will become clear. PG may amplify the effect a bit but mostly it's the nic.

The only time I lung hit is when I'm going for clouds on my dual coil cyclone setup. But flavor is nothing compared to a regular mouth to lung hit on my single coil. Hearing a lung-hitter talk about flavor is like listening to a eunuch talk about sex.

I like a throat hit, but I never direct lung inhaled ciggies. I never knew anyone did that until joining ECF and saw it on polls. Naive? Yup! Just for kicks I tried it with a ciggy...yeah, not for me. I got enough of a TH mouth-to-lung inhaling my full-bodied american spirits...lung hitting was horrible.

That is the best line!!

Didn't do lung-hits with cigs.

Tried it with e-cigs. My nic is too high for it. Not a fan of TH really.

I think I get more nic with a lung hit than with mouth-to-lung for some reason. But I about choked on the peppery nic (18 to 24 mg...more like 18 right now). I think it depends on PG (which has more TH) and the flavor, and the air flow. So there's variables.

I've had "mech mod SLR people" (excuse the generalization) tell me they take monster hits BUT they do it with very low nic or none at all and mostly VG. And that's not even cloud chasing, that's just big hits. Kind of a different variable....change in technique rather than going for "biggest" cloud effect.

One thing to watch out for is ....heat. Particularly when doing large lung hits. I don't recommend it as a general rule. I think it's hard on your body, and most of us are in this for the harm reduction. But I'm not an expert either, I just don't want to encourage it when "normal" hits are plenty...

You know, I've made this comment before- nic adds more to th than pg does, and I was called crazy. I'm glad to hear someone else back me up

One of the reasons I mentioned this is I Vape seduce juice 12mg 30pg70vg and love it. I got a bottle of 11mg 70pg30vg Bloog ejuice and its absolutely too harsh for me (kgd cotton kayfun 3.1 and mini). But, I'm sure there are other factors at play here too, different vendors for nic, flavorings added, etc. Just something I noticed though.

Like most it seems, I never inhaled straight to lung with cigarettes. Even when I started vaping it was always mouth to lung. It's only been since I got a more powerful setup with variable airflow that I have started doing lung hits and then mainly for those satisfyingly huge clouds of vapour.

I can't do lung hits. I've tried, but it doesn't satisfy me as much flavor wise. And honestly it chokes me just about every time.

I've noticed higher TH based on flavor also...citrus types specifically.

It's definitely the Nic that gives you the throat hit! I mix and vape only unflavored, and have tried vaping pure PG and pure VG before(an attempt at 0 nic). Both times were the same result. Whole lot of NOTHING at all. Like sucking in pure air, followed by exhaling a cloud. Menthol can give a bit of sensation, but it's not even close to throat hit.

For me I use 50/50 most often, and it depends on the topper. Something with a very light draw I lung hit, but if it has even a medium draw, I feel like I need to mouth-to-lung it.

I never lung inhaled cigarettes.

I don't lung inhale my vape too much, usually just when the batteries are starting to get weak.

I don't know why I dig the throat hit, but I used to smoke strong cigs and that must have something to do with it.

i use the mouth-to-pacreas method and i fine feel....
