I'm in love with vapor bomb-

I've tried, 100% pg, 80/20vg, 70/30vg, 60/40vg.

Actually none were bad. I really did like the 60/40 for peach. However it did seem to clog my cartos faster and the flavor was muted in my dual coil cartos. I don't know if it was due to the pg/vg ratio or it's sort of a delicate juice. It's fine in the boge cartos, just kills the carto a little faster. I think I'll go back to 70/30 or 80/20. I didn't notice all that much difference.

I've only done that experiment with peach because I order it so much. My other juices I usually order 80/20.

Here's the rundown on VG and PG:

PG is thinner and more harsh than VG. It carries flavor better and provides more throat hit.

VG is thicker and smoother than PG. It provides more vapor, but it can also mute flavors.

A 50/50 mix probably isn't going to give a strong throat hit. Try an 80PG/20VG mix if you want a lot of throat hit.

And now, here's the caveat:

PG isn't the only component to throat hit. Battery voltage, nicotine level and the ohms of your atty are also contributors.

PG is thin and lets through the most flavor and the most of nicotine's TH and irritation, makes weak looking vapor

VG is thick, dulls/smooths everything PG lets through, adds thicker more persistent vapor

Depending on what your juice holding attachment is. you may need to have a particular viscosity/flow of juice. Atty and cart or drip tip can use any thickness but if you are getting burning taste because the juice is thick and isn't wicking fast enough then you may need to thin the juice. I find stuffing type cartos work best the longest for me with juices that have no more than 20% VG and are clear light juices with no flavoring sediment. Reservoir cartos and tanks - I think these like 20-30% VG though some say they can do 50/50 in tanks.
