ok well i have 100% pg 6mg on the way i will see how much less th i get. if i get some then its fine, if i get none then i will have to increase to 12 or so. 26mg is just wayyyy too much. i cant vape too much because it makes my heart race, and its just plain harsh and makes me sick a little, i like the the throat thit though. i think my juice now is 100% pg.. it doesnt say on the bottle or on the add so i am going to assume its 100% pg?.. not sure

Throat hit is created by mainly just two things: nicotine strength and warmth of the vapor. If you want to decrease the throat hit, then the easier way is to decrease the nicotine strength. There have been many posts of people wanting to decrease their nicotine strength but not have as great an effect on the throat hit. When they moved up to a 5 volt or variable volt PV, they were able to decrease the nic and still have an OK throat hit. You still need some nicotine to get some throat hit, however. 6mg nicotine strength is very low and will not provide much throat hit.

Additives to eliquid to increase throat hit such as PGA or pepper do NOT provide good throat hit. It's just a waste of money. If I was vaping at 26mg and wanted to decrease the throat hit, I would drop down first to 18 or 16mg.

I dont want to decrease throat hit I want to decrease the nicotine over doses lol. 26 mg gives me the shakes, makes my heart feel like its going pop out of my chest, and bothers throat a little.

You could pick up a little VG until your juice arrives. Add a couple drops. Even distilled water. When I started I ordered the same juice in 24 & 12 figured I could mix them to increase or decrease the strength. With the 6 you have coming you'll be able to do that.

edit: Walmart sells VG in the pharmacy section

JT- I think it's probably not a bad idea to remove it. I don't have tank attys but I do typically take my atomizers or cartos off and cap them at bedtime. I also am freakishly meticulous with caring for my mods so it's probably not necessary but I like to do it.

If you want to sing to them it's ok too.
