Pure VG liquid - Comments Please.

[Madshock]

Ok, I am giving up my quest for seaching for PG in sg. And i find it not really cost effective if i have to always buy PG and pay the ridiculous Shipping for it.

Since VG is more accessible I might be changing my DIY habits depending on majority comments. hehe.

Have you all tried Pure VG + Water combos before? To be honest I am used to my 80%20% - PG and VG ratio. and I might be trying out 80%/20% - VG+ distilled water combo if I care enough... really.

I know PG gives more TH compared to VG. And wattage plays a part as well.
But Im kind of a TH fan. Even normal cigs (Occasional Puffs) Doesnt give me the TH i love from my PVs.

So i would like to hear from fellow sg vapers (Hoping out taste buds are more aligned compared to ang mos), what do you guys think?

I have no idea how pure vg will be like but i'm guessing very watery if you blow out from your nose.

speaking of TH, i got some serious TH when i ordered 24mg RY4, 70/30 pgvg.

From what I've read, nicotine content also plays a part in TH. the higher the nicotine, the higher the TH also. But as you said, wattage also plays a part. I've ordered 6mg in 70/30 PG/VG and though there's lots of vapor, TH sucks. Ordered a flavorless 100% PG 12mg to mix in and will update on results.

i can agree with 6mg, 70/30 the throat hit is almost non-existent on my LT. will try when my box mod hopefully arrives tmr.

i had to mix the 24mg RY4 with some 12mg caramel to tone it down to acceptable levels, well at least for my acceptable level.

hmm.. I guess ill have to test it out myself.. will make 5ml of 12mg nic to test drive soon... then ill post the results.

I also find high nic content will give you "spicy" taste, is that how you define TH...?

Cool, keep us posted Maddie! =)

 

[Madshock]

Hmm... ok. this is a dead case. haha. because my nic liq is pure PG 36mg.

Anyhow, here is my take. I just made my juice and I have just found out my perfect answer for myself.
I myself KNOW i will not like Pure VG... that is why im skeptical. Anyways, i would prefer a mixture.

I usually prepare beforehand a 50/50 vg pg mixture.. with my pure PG nic @ around 11-13mg i gather i usually vape 75-85% PG. it gives me a decent TH feel but moderate vapor. With my current arsenal, i figured that prolly i can try to just add on pure vg to my usual PG nic juice and of cos flavourings from TPA (Peach) for a 12mg juice. With the juice calculator its around 48/52% PG/VG.

So now im with a 5ml of 48/52% PG/VG 12mg Peach Juice.

My verdict. its pretty good, at almost 50/50, i feel that the vape is thick (can feel the vape going down the throat) and TH is noticeably smoother.. less dryer then my original juice %. I think i can live with this. haha. and after some thought, i realized 1 stupid thing that i didn't notice myself... all i need to do now is to only buy VG from local supplies, forget abt importing PG and import only my Pure PG 36mg nic juice and im all set.

@snooke - My definition of TH is the feel when u inhale and u feel the vape pass by your throat. Not the nic peppery feel. imagine the kind of feel when u inhale and something hit your throat that makes u cough.

And added note. I been chain vaping on it to see if i REALLY like it or not. i think i do.

I think i just found myself liking this TH feel more then my older concoctions. And my room is pretty smoky right now probably due to the fact that PG dissipates faster then VG.. out goes the stealthy vaping moments. LOL

I guess its the "we win some we lose some" scenario. lol

I used to use the app too. but its quite a simple calculator. good enough for beginners tho.

i use this now eJuice Me Up - e-Juice e-Liquid Recipe Calculator u need to download and install. it gives pretty accurate ratio calculations.
U just need to know how to use it.. took me a few mins to really know whats happening.

 

[sixfiend]

oo. interesting, thanks once i settle my vaping gear. i will explore homebrew next.
thanks!
