especially in light of recent studies (which might not be totally accurate).
Here is my thoughts.
At a high temperature PG/VG based liquid may produce carbonyls and it seems safer to use a temperature control device to avoid coil overheating. Just voltage / wattage readings become less relevant if you don't know the temperature of the coil.
Since VG (554 F) has a higher boiling point than PG (373 F) it's safer to use it in a coil heating device.
For example, DNA 40 device allow you to set the temperature of the coil to 450F which is way less than a boiling point of glycerol (554 F) and keep it at the same level regardless of the coil resistance (sub or above ohm). Set it and forget it.
I am not an expert by any stretch, so what do you think?
wow ... I prefer high VG and thanks for that info on it being safer.
Like most I've always liked full vapor production along with optimal flavor...
and have spent years with sub ohms and thick wire, on mechs and then later, high wattage boxes.
But then I moved "back" to 30g wire, LR resistances (1 to 2.5 ohms) and higher voltages (4 to 7v)... for a more consistently satisfying vape with less occasion for burning.
Now I am convinced that I can get all that even moreso with TP and Ni200... I won't vape anything else unless I have to.
People talk about flavor being most important and I agree, and IMO the flavor benefits of TP are the most attractive feature...
because sure, you can "control" your vape with kanthal/nichrome and the appropriate gauge, and the right v/w etc. but invariably you're going to get that dry hit, especially if you are using thicker wire and higher watts, more often than you would want. Not only is this not desirable from a health stand point but its going to affect flavor.
The best way to control your vape at this stage in the game is with TP.
