Should I be worried about PG?

[diggyb]

...not for the reason you're probably thinking.

I've been vaping for a couple weeks now and all my juices have been 100% VG. I have an order coming in from Vapor Chef tomorrow that is a 50/50 mix.

My concern is that I already get quite a bit of throat hit from my VG juices - and I don't know how much more I could handle enjoyably.

I'm not after throat hit at all - It's more an annoyance to me than anything else.

So - 50/50...will my current throat hit experience be significantly different? I'm using a protank 3 and spinner 1300 if that makes any difference.

I find that my 50/50 juices do hit somewhat harder but not to the point of annoyance. I am like you in that I am not a person that enjoys a strong TH. I vape mostly 80-100% VG juices. But early on I did buy some 50/50 stuff that I still vape from time to time. You will probably be ok. IMHO

Sure it'll be a bit different, but then again, the flavorings also have an effect, so it's hard to say exactly what the difference will be. Worry about it? NO, just experiment and adjust.

I use a 50/50 and it does give a decent TH and carries the flavor well. Since this is subjective it's hard to say until you've tried it for yourself. Keep us posted. Happy Vaping

menthol/koolada flavors i dont mind having in 50/50 since the cooling effect hinders the TH a bit. for my drippers i try to stay at least 80%VG or higher.

I guess I'll have to wait and see! As a burgeoning flavor chaser, I want to get as much flavor in my vapes as possible, so I hope the PG is good to me.

There's certainly more flavor nuances uncovered with PG. I much prefer PG heavy mixes as I can't stand the heavy feeling of VG in my throat and lungs, nor the lingering haze of VG in the air. To each his/her own, and that's a good thing! Be thankful that many e-liquid manufacturers allow us to tailor the mix.

Good to know, appreciate that!

Very interesting topic (or at least for me).
Keep us posted please.
I'm personally not sure about proper PG/VG mix for myself. I mean. I still have to do lot of tests with various PG/VG ratios and nic strengths to find that sweet spot, you know.
I'm taking it easy, however. If it tastes good, it tastes good no matter what mix it is, right?

 

[HippieChik]

Ya know, hmmmmm. Perhaps I'll tackle one lil ol issue at a time and just vape 50/50 and lower my nic

Ya for sure - and they all pretty much taste good - if not a little muted. I see myself going DIY pretty fast.

Lowering my nic is a more long-term goal for me...certainly not the first thing on my mind. That said - I had been vaping 20mg for the past week or two...and mistakenly just ordered a bunch of bottles of 24mg. oops. Oh well - waste not, want not...

 

[WindyCityJoe]

I vape 50\50 and at times higher pg ratios and don't feel that I get that much of a th, but I'm only at 6mg of nic and that could be the difference.

 

[diggyb]

Hopefully lower nic helps - I've been vaping 20mg and just ordered 25mg by accident, but really want to be at 16-18. I just ordered some of that, so I'll be able to compare shortly.
