I have juices from two separate vendors (who I will not identify). One is very well known and a bit more expensive, the other a bit less well known and inexpensive. What I've noticed is this: juice from the more expensive vendor seems to last longer. Has anyone else noticed differences in not just the taste of the juice, but the quality and vaping life of their juices, where 20 drops from one vendor lasts longer than 20 drops from another? This observation is completely unscientific, BTW.

I haven't noticed in that I'm too busy ordering and tracking juice orders, not counting stalking the postman...

PG is PG and VG is VG, what you didn't say is whether the blend is the same from both vendors. If the blend is the same, like 60%PG and 40%VG from both vendors it shouldn't make any difference who you buy from as far as how many toots per drop you get....That said, its true that some vendors have better tasting juice...maybe mixed better, with premium flavorings instead of cheap supermarket flavorings..maybe?..Some juices vape bettor than others too...lots of variables, and they are all subjective to the vapers use needs or tastes.

I would second that. As far as finding a good juice maker I would watch sales.
Currently honeyville vapor has a 39c for 5ml bottle sale, Limit 2 per flavor. I would grab 2 bottles of each flavor that catches your fancy, one in a 70-30 pg /vg mix and one in a 50-50. Try them both and you will see that one (with heavier VG most likely) lasts "longer", as in more puffs to the pour. It costs about 25$ after the 4.95 flat rate shipping for 2 of every flavor, (120 ml for 25$ delivered) so its a really nice snag.

I was wondering just the other day if this was true... I wouldn't begin to know where to source it, but I think you can make PG and VG from different sources... I know they're all USP grade (or should be!) but that only refers to the safety and purity of the ingredient, right? Wonder if there are some higher quality, more expensive versions of each... I heard reference to "pure palm glycerin" once, so I'm not totally convinced that they're all the same... Then again, could easily be pure meaningless advertising drivel...

Just a thought... Any chemists out there?
