So I got in some juice from tasty vapor and there was no way I was going to wait for it to steep.:p
But a weird thing is happening; I am getting a little flavor ( guess I will have to let it steep like a couple of other people said:blush: ) and a massive throat hit, but the vapor that I know I am inhaling is NOT being exhaled!? I've even checked in a mirror to see if I had vapor in my mouth before inhaling. This has happened on all 3 custom mixed flavors now, they are all full PG, but I have other PG juices and this is the first time this has happened.
WTH is going on!!!!!?:confused:

You named the problem yourself -- they are full PG.

buy some food grade (USP) PG at Walgreen's or somewhere. Add a little and you'll have lots and lots of vapor.

I like 20-30% VG but, because you ordered it with all PG you'd probably end up diluting the flavor and as little as 10% VG would give you decent vapor.

I've always ordered my TV juice at 48mg 10% VG and my TV doublers (2oz) at 20% VG. I mix at a 1:1 ratio which gives me roughly 24mg and tons of vapor.

From TV's FAQ:

Usually a combination of 80% PG and 20% VG as the liquid base, is the most commonly preferred mixture ratio

On the plus side, sounds like you've got some great juice for stealth vaping :)

If you like the flavor you could always order another batch with, say, 30% VG and mix it. Should give you the exhale vapor you're looking for.

All of my previous juices had high VG content but I think I'm having issues with burning cartos because of the thickness of VG juices, therefore I tried a few mixes with little to no VG.

FYI- if you mix 1oz. 48mg juice with 2oz. 0mg juice you get 3oz. 16mg juice.:) Or at least I'm pretty sure that's the formula.

Except for when you mix at a 1:1 ratio (see above) and not 1:2, e.g. 1 oz juice to 1 oz doubler.

I just got a kit from zigcigs.com, 3 full sets and a bunch of testing bottles, I tried the three batteries, the three atomizers and three of the flavors, so far all of them have really good taste, the tobacco ones really taste like tobacco, but as soon as I exhale all of the smoke is gone, sometimes just a small puff.

I just stopped smoking a week ago with the Xhale O2 sold at 7-11, and since I got them, I have not touched a regular cigarette. The Xhales do vapor a lot, they taste good, and satisfy the cravings, but the options are really limited, and they are on the pricey side.

I guess I got to get some real e-juice, now I just need to look for reviews to get a good place to buy from, hopefully that will fix my lack-of-vapor problem.

Hey redrobin347, I been using the 510 a lot, and it appears that I am getting a little more vapor out of them, not a lot more, I emailed Shawn, and he said that the sample liquids are hybrid with both PG and VG balancing vapor, flavor and throat hit.

I am getting a lot of flavor, and decent throat hit, but I do not know how much vapor am I supposed to get. I read in another post that the atomizers have to break in, but have not confirmed that.

On the flavor side, I have only tried the Pina Colada (tastes just like if I just had a zip of the real thing), the marlboro juice (not really marlboro but close enough) and the Southern Tobbaco (has a funky taste, not my thing). What I noticed is that filling the cartridges bottom first was giving me a better flavor, don't know why, but it has worked.

Let me know please if this helps, and what have you find out, maybe we can get this things vaporizing like they are supposed to.
