I think you are referring to PG/VG, those are the 2 components of the juice. As far as I am aware the Tank system on the EGO-T performs better with a higher PG mix, it is thinner than VG. I was advised to order 2 bottles of juice of the same flavor, in a small size, one 100% PG and one 100% VG and make a few mixes myself to find the best level for me, worked out well. Everyone has a different preference.

Can you give a little more background to your previous cig brand etc, this will help the geniuses on here to give you the best advice. They have been so helpful to me.

Good luck, and you can do it, might take a little trial and error but you'll get there.

On the tank I think most use 80pg/20vg or 70pg/30vg ?

I think if you need to choose 100% PG or 100% VG (like if you are buying Chinese juice), get the PG and buy a smaller bottle of VG for if the PG is too harsh or thin. PG does little to buffer the TH and harshness of nicotine and the nicotine can cause soreness of the tongue or throat. Even 20-30% VG in the juice base ratio will usually eliminate any irritation from nicotine. PG also lets through the most flavor, VG makes more vapor.

It may be hard or it may be easy.. Just remember that everytime you vape instead of smoke, you are doing a great thing for your bod! So, if miracles don't happen right away don't be too hard on yourself. It takes some people much longer than others to finally let go of cigs once and for all. Backwoods Brew has some of the best tobacco tasting flavors but there are so many good ones. I am not much of a tobacco flavor fan (anymore haha) but am vaping VS4 by vaporstation and it is really good. I am sure more folks will come along to give you good recommendations also. So hang in there and let us know how you are doing when it gets there!

Welcome to the forum Nokisu! Trust me, if you don't have the vapor you're going to miss it. You don't have to sacrifice one for the other. With a propylene glycol (PG) and vegetable glycerin (VG) mix of 80/20 you will get plenty of vapor and many of our suppliers offer the choice of "double flavor" when ordering your juice. Buy several small bottles of different flavors and strengths to start with before investing in a big bottle of something you might not like. You can always sell what you don't like here in the "Classifieds" section. Good luck!
