Anything with 100% PG gives me a terrible sore throat, but that doesn't happen for everyone. I use at least 50% VG.

 

[sasasst]

i use 50/50 .

I use 100%VG 36mg nicotine and have no problems.. I have recently tried some PG/VG mix and it was rough....

Nicotine can be harsh, some people are sensitive to PG some are sensitive to VG. VG tends to be less harsh than PG but many people like the throat hit and flavor that PG provides. You just have to experiment to see what you like best.

I use 80%PG / 20%VG (I believe it is the basic mix) for now and it's been good. Pretty soon I'll be trying out other ratios.

You might want to let text stay its default color. By forcing the color to black, your post is essentially invisible to people who use the Blackend motif.

No problem, forum stuff is always learning One poster always uses a dark blue, I gave up even trying to read any posts from them.

Nicotine causes throat hit, all PG does is not coat your throat the way VG does, so TH is muted by VG. If you don't like the throat hit, first option is always to try a lower nicotine level. If that doesn't work, you can try a high or total VG liquid.

informative , thanks imsoenthused , i try a lower nicotine level first .

High mg's of nicotine will affect your throat and so will pg in some people. I like a lighter throat hit so I use 18mg...80pg/20vg'ish

Yup, true dat! When I first tried 24mg nicotine, it was too harsh for my throat so now I settled for 16~18mg and I guess that is my sweet spot nic level for now. But even at that, sometimes in the morning when I wake up it feels harsh for maybe the first and second vape and then it's alright after that. Oh by the way, vaping does dehydrate you so make sure to drink plenty of water.

I think it is the nic myself.I had the same problem so I cut my nic and now it's ok.You may be different but thats what my problem was.

 

[sasasst]

all is ok. i use 510 LR drip tip with 9 mg nic and huge vapor action starts. 50/50 , without sting .
obviously fault ego-c .
now only drip .
thanks my friends .

I see it now. "He's a 36 mg PG Dekang Kamel, she's a 6 mg VG organic caramel cappuccino -- can this couple survive?"
