With me, my nose runs, and I have coughing and sneezing fits, if the device is giving me a burnt or hazy taste. For me, I can really pinpoint this if I "sniff" after I puff - when I sniff after a dry-ish hit, I can really feel and smell a burning sensation in my nose, a bit like when cigarette smoke causes the nose to be caked with tar-ish colored fluid and residue on the nasal hairs. Make sure your device is truly giving you the best vape you can get; some people, taste wise, just aren't as sensitive to tasting a hazy or burnt taste as others, but it can have an effect on your experience regardless.

So this is kinda weird, but when I vape, my left nostril trickles. What the?

PG/VG are "humectants" i.e. attracts water.

The result of vaporizing pg/vg is.......vapor. There is condensation occuring to make those clouds. :) Humectants absorb moisture from mouth/throat.

This is the same reason why vaping is somewhat dehydrating.

Flavorings will get your salivary glands going, too, producing more saliva.

Hope this makes sense. :) Just science.

I don't think it's the sniffles, it only happens when I vape.

It does tend to happen more with my mvp2, I wonder if it has to do with bigger clouds? Also more with AiV flavors, but that may be a coincidence because I have been hitting them pretty hard since I got my mvp2.

I am glad to know I am not the only one, though!
