PG or VG??

[michellec]

Hi All,

I have seen both of these types of liquid on various sites and was wondering what the difference was between PG and VG liquid?
Also which do you use?
And which is better?
Advantages and disadvantages?

Thanks In Advance

most people can tolerate pg, but a lot like myself had allergic reactions and sore throat from it..
VG is more natural (vegeatable glycerin) and gives off more vapor and a tad sweeter..

I would recommend VG..Ive been through pg, peg, and VG based juices.. you really have to try for yourself to see what you like.. I would suggest ordering a bottle of each to see what works for you

Yes i have some of each on the way....
Does anyone else think VG is better?

I like VG more. It creates more vapor!

 

[michellec]

Is VG better for fruit flavours as it is sweeter and PG fot tobacco like flavours?

VG is also thicker in viscosity than pg is!! If you get into mixing your own juice.. Then, I would suggest using VG. It is a little sweeter than pg but ml by ml it goes a long way. When you mix with vg, it is always best to cut the VG with clear grain alcohol like vodka... Just a couple drops per ml until you get your desired thickness by thinning the vg.
It also takes a little less VG by concentration of your juice to produce vapor.. so, yes it does produce a lot more vapor and the TH is generally better.
