vg and attys

[sixofusernames]

i recently started using juice with more vg in them, and i have noticed that my atty is starting to get sluggish and not work as well. i usually just blow them out and do a quick dry burn. does vaping vg juice require additional atty maintenance, or tend to shorten the life of the atty? any info regarding vg and atties is appreciated............thanks!

 

[M & M]

I've used VG pretty much from the get-go so I really have nothing to compare it to.
All I can say, is I have to clean every once in a great while---I also do a dry burn.
I've lost four attys in the last year which I don't think is bad.

if i use anything more than 30% vg, i thin it out a bit with everclear. haven't had any atty issues.

i use 75/25 and 80/20, if anything they are working better. It might be the flavours you are using.

50% PG/30% VG/20% PGA here, no issues. In fact, my atomizers stay cleaner with this DIY liquid than with DK juice. I use the dry burn and get almost no dry burn smoke with my liquid, I get LOTS with DK juice.

ive mainly only used vg based liquids and certain ones tend to have super thick liquid which require me to blow out the atomizer more frequently. although since ive generally only used vg, from my experience my atomizer has lasted a good 4months before ive tried others which felt a stronger hit.

to "switched" do you mean 75 pg 25 vg?

watch the syring wash for 510-901 attys been using this once in a while when attys get slugish and it works well

... that is normally what that means. PG is always first, just like in the alphabet

I've only used VG with my attys and they work fine.

Do you have another atty to compare it to?

 

[garyd]

I use mostly vg in my mixes and haven't had a problem yet.

Garyd,

That is a pretty generalized statement don't you think? What percentages? And are you cutting with PG or PGA, because I doubt't that you are vaping "successfully" on straight VG.

What is the base of your unflavoured nic juice?

BTW pure VG vapes like .... in a 510, and clogs attys.

Sorry, it works out very close to 70% vg 30% pg after I cut the pg nic juice with vg and add flavor according to the calculator I use. I also cut my vg with distilled water 20%, can't buy PGA in Idaho or I would try cutting the vg with that.

Thanks a bunch my friend, now at least folks won't be confused.

I like Rath's juice flavors but they are all VG, no PG and it does vape like crap on a 510 and clogs it within a day or two. really wish he'd make them in PG as an option

I would be purchasing elsewhere. Theres a lot of animals in the zoo.

Vg can be cut with distilled water to thin it out, or everclear, and you don't need a drop of pg. If mixed properly, it will not leak, flood or clog atty's. Everybody's experience will be different, with any mix or filler. Different mixes, different thickness of filler material, it is all trial and error to get whatever type of mix you have to be compatible with whatever type of filler you have, and even the way your filler was made. Like you said at PEC, 7 different ptb mods, Countless Blue foam mods.. They are all different.

I had ordered some juice that was about a 50/50 PG/VG mix. In some cases I am inclined to believe there was an even higher ratio of VG because the liquid was so damn thick.

This was the first type of juices I have really used because I just started vaping a few weeks ago. I destroyed 4 atomizers because the juice was too high in VG (to my understanding). This may have also been due to the fact that the juice was very sweet as well.

I ordered some juice with presumably lower VG mix, although I am not exactly sure what the ratio is. Hopefully this should go over a little better and I won't be killing an atomizer within two days time.

Just my two cents. :]

anyone use juice from eliquidplanet? whats their vg ratio?
