pros and cons of high pg and high vg juices

[vaptallica666]

Hi everyone, just looking to get some advise about the different kinds of e juice. I've been vaping for about a month using an evod battery with a protank mini 2.

1. What is the difference between high pg and high vg juices ?

2. What lasts longer and is better for the lifespan of a coil ?

3. Does the amount of nicotine effect the flavor of the e juice ?

Thanks

pg will carry more flavor and provide more throat hit, while vg will produce more vapor and have less throat hit. Higher vg seems to be a bit harder on the coils because it is much thicker. the nicotine will typically not affect your flavor, depending on the maker of the nicotine as some do have a slight flavor. The nicotine will also produce throat hit so the higher the nic usually the more throat hit you will feel, but the better nic buzz you will get.

Higher PG mixes are thinner, and therefore are generally more suited to tank setups - they clog less and wick a little better.

Higher VG mixes are usually more for drip atomizers, as they are less runny and don't spill out of your dripper.

$0.02

Also consider that sweeter juices will probably decrease the lifespan of the coil as well... so a non-sweet, low VG juice will probably give you the longest coil life...

Kaezziel makes a good point.

If you are aiming for a truer tobacco or other like flavor, PG may be more appealing, as VG has an inherent sweetness to it and PG does carry more throat hit feel.

If you're after the fruity or dessert flavors, you may want higher VG so you can minimize the added sweetening agents....

Fewer chemicals is what it is all about to some people.

Nope. VG is as vaporizable as PG is. Its sweetness is nothing to do with more usual crystallized sweeteners which caramelize on coils. VG does not gunk coils.
