I've mainly used PG liquid since I started vaping. For about a year now, I've been mixing an 11mg with a 0mg to get around 8mg. That works well for me and I'm used to it, but I never feel a hit of nicotine. I know I get it because I feel more alert/awake/clear/better/satisfied, but there's no "ahhhh". So I assume it absorbs gradually and smoothly.

The other day, I got some low strength (8mg?) Blu cartos to try out and they use a VG formula. They seem to work well even though I'm not so fond of the taste. What's surpised me, though, is how hard they seem to be hitting me. I don't mean throat hit, I mean nicotine. I take a couple puffs and I actually start to feel a bit shakey. I'm confused about that.

Has anyone else noticed a difference like that between PG and VG? Is VG a more efficient nicotine carrier?
