Hi everyone,
I have been trolling these forums for a while and especially since getting my 901 and all the accessories last week. I have a few problems, though, and I'm having trouble finding any similar situations on the forum already...so here goes.
1) I started with 6mg and that wasn't enough nicotine. So last week I ordered some 11mg in both PG and VG forms (figured I should try both options). PG itches my throat really bad/ sometimes even burning it. The VG isn't nearly as bad, really smooth most of the time. It does still dry out my throat though, and this can make vaping uncomfortable especially if I'm nic'ing...and yes, I am drinking water. Any thoughts? Does this go away? Is it just worth dealing with becauses its still better than smoking?
2) Even with the VG being smoother...and i know this will probably raise some eyebrows at me...but...i'm actually frustrated by how much vapor I produce. I mean, its actually an obnoxiously large amount. I was so excited about vaping in a restaurant, at school, in the movie theater, at the store, etc...but there is literally a huge vaper cloud that just hangs in the air...thick. Ironically, the PG liquid didnt do this as bad. And whats worse is it makes my eyes itch, and it bothers my husband's throat (he never smoked, non smoker) and I think my dogs even run from it... I dont want to even do this at my friends houses..let alone in public. Whats going on? It seems like most people can't get enough vapor and here I am feeling constrained by it!
3) I couldnt wait to get the black tea flavor after reading so many reviews...but honestly with the PG liquids I have I can hardly tell the difference between their smells/tastes (except menthol and RY4)...and they all have this weird stink, even the menthol. The only VG flavor I have is menthol, but I have RY4 on the way so I guess we'll see how that goes. I have used 2 different suppliers at this point, both with great reviews. Is it just because my taste buds havent "come back" yet? Why am I not getting the wonderful taste experience most people seem to love?
Thank you for answering my questions. I knew this would be a lot of learning and fiddling and experimenting...but I keep feeling like the expectation I got from trolling here and watching all the youtube videos just isn't what I'm personally getting and I don't know why. I've overfilled way too many cartridges and gotten fluid in my mouth, I've underfilled and never gotten the right drag (or was it the battery dying?)...urgh.
Thanks in advance for any advice. It is much appreciated.
