Using Bases other than PG and VG

[GrumpyClouds]

Does anyone know of any other bases that might be able to be vaped? I'm just curious if there is anything else out there that could be a potential alternative in the future. I appreciate all responses.

Thanks,

The only other base I know of is PEG400, but I have tried it and like many others didn't rate it.

EDIT: With PEG400 you MUST buy FROM A vaping SUPPLIER as it can contain DEG which is very dangerous.

Thanks for the info. Also, what do you mean when you say that you didn't rate it?

There is also triacetin

Triacetin is a flavor carrier solvent (base), like PG and VG found in most cola fizzy flavorings. This particular one tends to damage
plastic atomizer tanks. If a DIY flavor carries a warning about plastic tanks, that probably means it
contains triacetin. I don’t believe anyone uses triacetin to replace PG and VG, only as an added
flavor note. But adding it in combination with other flavors such as lets say strawberry or grape will make it fizzy.

It has a funny taste...OK got the menthol I mixed ages ago out and although it is vapable there is something not quite right IMO a funny sweetness that just doesn't sit right, I could vape it but much prefer my usual 50/50 mix. I think you really have to try it to find out if it suits you though.

My son was just prescribed PEG today as a laxative... Interesting coincidence
