Im sure this is a new, old question but Im a noob and would love to get the low down. You know vapor clouds vs TH, flavor and all that. What is the advantage to a 50/50 PG VG mix anyway?
PG vs. VG vs. PG/VG

Perhaps the best of both worlds, pg for TH and vg for big clouds of vapor??? Smoother vape it seems to me
It *is* an old question but it's still an important one.
VG produces a thicker/fuller vapor than PG but it comes at a cost. VG *robs* both flavor and TH. 'Tis why most of us prefer a mixture of the two. FWIW, I settled in at 70/30 PG/VG nearly two years ago.
Vapers will tell you that "PG gives a better TH". That is not exactly accurate and implies that PG, by itself, gives TH. It doesn't. None at all. Nor does VG, for that matter. VG masks more TH than PG does. TH still comes from nic and warmth via voltage.
Best of luck...

I double my flavoring, add vodka and distill water to thin it out a little bit for my full on VG mix. On LR1.5 atty on true 3.7V TH is great. On 5V with 2.8 atty even better. It just takes awhile to find sweet balance.
You guys are great. This is why vaping is fast becoming my favorite new thing. Tons of cool science and tech. to mess around with, plus a dedicated helpfull comunity. Not to mention the harm reduction!
My Blus. It seems are 100% PG and i do love those first huge cloud hits off a new Cart.& fresh Batt. The Johnson creek Tobaco flavor is amazing too IMHO. I just got my shiny new silver bullet in the mail today and presently charging up the big 18650. Looking foward to comparing the Blu's with the 50/50 blends at a higher volt. So far I think its the huge plooms of vapor and rich flavors that do it for me more then TH.

PG - adds sweetness to some degree and is a flavor enhancer - also TH
VG - vapor producer but can mute certain flavors
PG/VG - best of both worlds. Lots of flavor and vapor with TH.
