Can, I'll let more knowledgeable folks here respond to the technical PG-VG stuff, but I want to mention one thing. Most people prefer PG-based juices. The flavors are often better and way more varied. Some, like me, prefer VG... but we're a lowly isolated ragtag group that resorts to begging and groveling for more VG. You wouldn't want to meet us in an alley.

I do like VG a lot although I vape it mainly because PG gives me skin probs. Fortunately, I've grown to really like it and have started connecting more with the underground group of VG-heads. Though relatively small in number, many members are actually vaping VG for its special taste, so it's not just for health reasons. VG juices are improving, too.

You may also want to note that V4L's shelves currently lack VG juices. The good news it that a small new line of VG juices is on the way, predicted to arrive any day now. Stay tuned. And good luck with the vaping. V4L's the best company out there, so you're obviously making wise choices. :2cool:

jeffree is right, but you're not alone... VG USERS ONLY :vapor:

VG also gives WAY more vapor, which is why they mix it with the PG sometimes, but the main thing is the health problems that people have been having with PG that doesn't seem to happen with VG... and for DIYers, you can buy the vegetable glycerine at drug stores and/or health food stores. Plus, there are a lot more vendors carrying VG liquids now than you might think!!

Personally, I have worked in and around the entertainment industry long enough to know how nasty it is to breath in the so-called 'fog juice' used in special effects (there's a reason the crew members wear filter masks on their faces), the ingredient in PG is one of its main components, which is why I choose not to inhale it directly into my lungs...

But, to each his/her own... that's just my :2c:

I have tried both..for no other reason then that Steve in his bid for world domination sent me V.G. to try. Lot's of vapor..ok on taste. If I want more vapor in my P.G. I just add Glycerin (USP) from Walgreens..instant extra vapor!
Most people who use V.G. have allergy problems.. I know this is misrable for them (I have lots of allgeries myself, thankfully not to P.G.). Just bear in mind that when you first start vaping, you may go thru some withdrawal symptoms like gas, face breakouts, greasy face feeling and some other mild symptoms..they go away! Anything like stortness of breath and chest pain..go to a Dr.
