Proud smellies divorce winner, got sudden allergy problem

[onehans]

Hi! so yes i am amazingly happy to drop that awful habit after 19 years of abuse of anything with smoke in it . what made such a drastic change to me it was Sub-Ohm. I guess I should start from beginning....
My first encounter was via email, dah another spammy post but hold on da fu..is that? ... and that was something new "electronic cigarettes" as they called to begin with. I taught yummy! i love fresh ..... and from then, probably 6 years i smoke vapour with normal cigarettes same time (but kids etc., wife dont smoke. bla bla bla), that changed within few hours when i started on new aspire celito Sub Ohm thing i bought. just wow!
but within week or two i developed allergy, and as i noticed to FA concentrates it was. i bought JACvapour and they are 150% better but yet I get allergy problem too, yet 150% smaller (lol i at least do not want to scratch my eyes off - no joke). my personal conclusion is that its a sweetener ( i know my self i hate sweeteners - personally and physically too so if its not sugar it might be nightmare)

JACvapour (and loads of those 'Wer'e No.1!'-type companies) are a rip-off, and charge *huge* mark-ups on what ends up being very average gear (if you're lucky).

What you're best off doing is buying a bottle of PG and VG separately, and vaping each unmixed until you get an idea of what each does to you, then you can mix them, add flavourings, nicotine etc until you get a reaction.

You can get bottles of PG/VG for like USD$7 each, so it's not an expensive experiment to perform.

Welcome and glad you joined. I hear you. Continuity has the right idea. If you DIY, you can mix your juice anyway you like for pennies. You will find that sub ohm'g can use up 4 times or more the rate of some non sub ohm'g.
In General
Lower Ohm Coils/Higher Wattage vaping Will:
Heat The Coil Faster
Produce More Vapor, can mute taste (coat mouth/build up)
Drain The Battery Faster
Use E-Juice Faster
Produce A Warmer Tasting Vape
Shorten Coil Life
Shorten Wick Life
More PV Maintenance/Issues
More irritation to non vapers (tends create more negative comments regarding cloud production)

i actually got 1L VG and 0.5L PG from DarkStar in UK and all i get is concentrates, i stopped even adding nicotine. might be that i add too much concentrate (usually its 20Concentrate/80VG) mango my favourite but i tried others too with same effect - allergy to everything (air, dust, light....). the coils i got in celito are somewhat chimneys and im surprised that they last so long (even 3 weeks!) depend on what i pour in. if is a dark liquid it kills coil in a 2 days, if is a clear it works till i change it. with old kanger coils wick gone bad for me very quickly ~3days despite using standard tobacco flavour of ebay
this is what i got now
tank Aspire - Aspire Cleito Tank
mod eVic-VTC Mini - Joyetech
and 2x battery effest 3100 20A

i will try to smoke VG on its own and see if it gives me all that allergy and later try pg too, but i think it will leak off this tank as is too runny.

I would stay away from the crappy Efest rewraps and invest in some decent cells next time around - get some known, good cells like Samsung 25R/30Q or LG HG2 etc.
