Mmmm... Let me tell you. Mix up your unflavored, and add about 1 or 2 drips per mL of Wizard Labs Smoother. Shake and give it one day. At 10 watts(for me 2.5ohm@5v), it kicks ....! If you are into it, about 1 drip per mL of Menthol will really make it great.

I know that's technically not "unflavored", but I still count it.

I'm a huge fan of Wizard Labs (which is where my plain nic liquid is from). I'll have to give it a whirl, and definitely check out the 'smoother' that you mentioned.

I've been vaping unflavored on and off for about a year now. I vape it when I find myself getting unsatisfied with my flavored juices (I diy).. I use it when I get that "I can't taste my juice" syndrome. I vape it when I find myself added more and more flavor to my mixes. It kinda acts as a palette cleanser so to speak. After vaping if for a couple days, I can go back to adding just a few drops to my mixes. To me, it has a clean, refreshing taste. It's not tasteless, it's kinda sweet on it's own and it makes me able to taste (and appreciate) my juices when I go back to them. It's not something I'd want to vape all the time but I'd hate to be without it. I remember once I ran out of nic and all I had was some very sweet store bought juice.. I couldn't wait to get my order in and mix up some unflavored! It was such a relief from the sweet juice.

I use 70% PG 30% VG I bought my last batch from wizardlabs. I like using very very little flavoring, like 5% or less. It's very easy and cheap to make.. I just bought some new flavors today (6 bottles for $15 shipped.. should last me a year) and they're the first I've bought in.. I can't remember the last time I bought flavoring.

For someone who diy's, it can't hurt (or cost) to try it. And if you don't diy, I'm sure there are places that sell it. (But why would you want to buy it when you can order the ingredients and make it yourself for a fraction of the cost!)

There are online calculators that make it super easy to mix your own.. once you get the basics of mixing unflavored.. it's only a simple thing to add a bit of flavor. Just a bit of flavor won't dilute the juice enough to make any difference (I mix my juice at 12mg/ml and it's alright if after I add flavoring it goes down to say.. 11mg.)

Here is the online calculator I use.
Here is a great place to get stand-alone flavors.

I like using a citrus juice to clear out my old flavor. Vaping a plain nic just seems wrong. Butters so you go from cancer of the lung to mouth give up the snus dude. Just a suggestion.

After I smoked a Camel IzMir Stinger, I thought smoking an unflavored Marlboro was just wrong too! Fact is, the only difference between unflavored Nic and e-liquid is a few drips of flavoring, which we don't fully know the health effects of when inhaled.

That being said. I vape flavored and unflavored... Regardless of the potential health effects of flavorings, I still know it's about a 1000% better than smoking.

Tried vaping unflavored this morning, worked quite well in clearing flavors out my cartomizer (especially since the last juice I had in it was coffee-flavored and WAY dark). Also seems to have cleared up the cartomizer as well, takes a lot less of a drag to get the same amount of vapor. Which, could be purely psychosomatic, not sure.
