Most of the time Nicotine = headache

Lower your nicotine or vape less, or at least use lower nic part of the time when vaping a lot.

It helps me at home to leave my ecigs in another room.

2nd possible cause - dehydration - stay hydrated. Vaping can be drying.

3rd possible cause - detoxing off the 4000 chemicals in cigarettes - take vitamins, stay hydrated, eat and drink well

4th possible cause - you got auto batteries and are sucking too hard, or manual and are sucking too hard which isn't necessary at all on manuals, or using too thick juice in cartos and making them hard to drag too soon, or the wider tip of the ecig vs the end of a cigarette is bothering your jaw muscles (if using 510 or KR8 cartomizers, put a slim drip tip on the end instead of the endcap to get a smaller mouth size).

But most of the time, if you vape alot and you get a headache = nicotine

Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor. It can mess with your blood pressure and also cause rapid or irregular heartbeat. I never got headaches my whole life unless I had a sinus infection. Then I started vaping, and sure enough, every time I vaped excessively (even with 1 level lower nic) I get a headache in my right temple (and if I kept vaping too much I could get a couple of irregular heartbeats like I used to with cigs). So after the first 6 weeks I worked on lowering my nicotine and now I am at a level where I can vape a lot and not get a headache unless I really overdo it.

look into menthol killer cowboy from prime vaping... its a strong menthol tobacco flavor .. also try cutting back on your nic...

How strong is jour juice? And did you try something with VG base? It is sweeter taste with more vapour.

Re pure PG - don't blame pure PG on bad flavors. PG just lets the flavor and TH through the best (also lets nicotine's irritation through the best). But if you bought PG Chinese juices, they are not the pinnacle of juice taste. Some of the tobaccos are OK - I like the sweet RY4 and I like the DK-TAB as a base to mix with something like Orange Ball (chocolate orange ball) from FreedomSmokeUSA (hakes a really interesting mellow tobacco w/ hint of chocolate and highlights of orange). Even the plain old Dekang PG tobacco ot USA-Mix can be turned into something inetretsing by adding a good peach to make a peach tobacco (like Vixen Vapor Peach)

In addition, just like with food, most of the flavor is in the aroma. You have to smell the vapor. Your tongue can only taste sweet, salty, bitter, sour and umami (MSG).

I use cartomizers and I like 20% or less VG for good wicking and drag. On normal atomizers I like 20-50% VG. Tank atomizers and reservoir cartos like the thickness of 20-30% VG.

BTW - Gourmet Vapor sale! vapercon is the code for 50% off and that makes their prices really good

If you are a menthol person, you can pick up some menthol concentrate liquid, what we use in diy. Just a handful of drops should provide a noticeable increase in the menthol.

I just ordered some last night, voidmist is running a 50% off sale, so 7 ml of the menthol concentrate was all of $2.60. AUG_15_50%OFF if your order total is $15 or more.

The menthol concentrate is here: http://www.voidmist.com/products/Menthol-Concentrate.html

Their main page is here: http://www.voidmist.com/

You could try some of their regular eliquids, and pick up a bit of that concentrate to add punch.

Try this, I didnt smoke menthol on a regular basis but I love the flavor and smooth menthol hit I get from this.
Watermelon Ice

Oh and there is also a bunch of other flavors in there too. The cherry chill and frigid peach are pretty good too.

You could always add menthol crystals to your juice. The menthol concentrate sounds easier though.
