Welcome to the forum MEDIC...
Lack of oxygen to your brain likely, are you breathing more than you're vaping?
Or vaping more than you're breathing? Don't vape until you get this figured out.
If you are a neversmoker why are you doing it,
if it's giving you headaches why haven't you stopped?
What flavours? Are you 100% sure it's no nic.
How many diff liquids do you have?
What brand of liquid is it?
PG/VG ratios?
A little more info please. Cheers.

Hi thanks for the reply and the welcome.
my husband capes and he thought since I was a diabetic and did not eat sweets any lo get this would be a way to sooth the crazings. I actually like it. I lime playing with the vapor. Lol
well I ordered the juice from zbox in the 11 bottle order. The bottles say 0 mg nicotine. I hope there correct. I have coffee flavored coconut pop corn butter rum and a molasses flavor
But I did notice the headaches started usually when I'm driving I will puff on the thing not inhaling mind you to stay alert. I'm a professional driver now and get bored when driving over 4 hrs so I puff on my device and enjoy the flavor.
I noticed I can not smoke a lot due to the headaches. I can maybe have a couple puffs an hour.
Any input is appreciated
thanks

You may have a PG sensitivity/allergy.
Purity of PG, VG and PEG - The Short Version
PG = Propylene Glycol - the "flavor carrier" of e-liquid. A secondary source of "throat hit", but not as strong as the nicotine concentration. Some people have a sensitivity or even an allergy to PG. It's very thin.
VG = Vegetable Glycerin - the "vapor maker" of e-liquid. Used as a sweeter in many food sources, and also as a skin emollient. It's very thick.

If what you have is from zamplebox they deal with a lot of different juice suppliers, mostly "little guys"
others may know better but I only saw a couple names there that I'd heard of before.

From the first page in the above link they are talking about it being a crapshoot when it comes to nic levels eg. take what you get sorta thing.
Most are probably small up and comers or crash and burners, probably made in kitchens or garages.
If you could contact zbox and tell them your problem?
Ask for half your next box to be high in pg,
and the other half to be high or 100% vg.
If that is possible.
And reaffirm it all must be zero nic.
Hopefully one type will be okay and the other will be good for the "old man"(PG or VG)
Chances are the liquids are fine but I doubt if some of them are made in "labs".
It is a fair price for a lot of variety, but you must realize at that price point it probably is very cheap liquid made with very low quality ingredients in very small batches and might also be older stock.
Big names like Hangsen, Dekang or other approved suppliers on this site might be of interest.
They will all have a track record and be in good standing if they are "approved" by ECF.
It's no "guarantee" but it's better than vaping all the unknowns out there nowadays.

This is just all only my opinion. TIFWIW.
Hope you get it straightened out. Cheers.

Hope you get it straightened out. Cheers.Fun fact, VG/PG is known to cause dehydration... Simple fix, drink more water. Might not be what's going on but a very likely cause, plus your flavor receptors wok better when you are well hydrated
Here's a test you can do. Buy some VG at Walmart, put a few drops of distilled water into it.... and vape it......should tell you what you need to know. It won't have any nicotine in it, and it won't have any PG or flavorings.
If you still get a headache, then it's VG.
If you still get a headache, then it's VG.
Agree^^^ get some VG USP or some PG USP from a compounding pharmacy.
Try each of them on their own, if they both bother you vaping may not be for you.
If neither bother you it's the flavourings.(or nic). Cheers.
