I have the option of getting either 10% VG and 90% PG,
20% VG and 80% PG,
or 35% VG and 65% PG

Which would you suggest? I am looking for a smooth throat hit (not reckless) and tons of vapor, BUT I don't want my liquid to be so thick and clog my atomizer/make it laggy and hard to draw like most VG liquids are (I am experienced with VG, just not with VG PG mix)

Help?:?: And could someone please explain to me the benefits and cons of getting each percentage so I can make a legit decision on which ratio to get?

Sometimes I'll add a few extra drops of VG to my 6ml daily use bottle just to boost the vapor up (especially if I'm using menthol). 80/20 should work well for you!
Ooo nice. Is it just flavorless VG or usually the same flavor VG as your PG mix?

It's weird, Menthol does seem to have less vapor than other flavors, I have noticed that. But wow, menthol liquid is sooo much tastier than menthol cigarettes. I loooove menthol so much. I could literally eat Vicks vapo rub.

LOL... me too, LUV the menthol. It was what helped kick me off the stinky sticks. Good throat hit.

I add regular USP VG (bought it at Walmart and also found it at an Herbalist shop).

Geoff at TastyVapor has a yummy menthol. Minty/Vanilla/Menthol. Of course, you can have him make the mix 70/30. Then, I add my own menthol drops made with menthol crystals and EverClear (Pure Grain Alcohol - find at a grocery store and you can use it to clean atomizers too). I like my menthol liquids to blow my skirt up *grin*.

Here is the thread with the directions/recipe for menthol drops http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/20590-menthol-drops-recipe-menthol-lovers.html

I buy the menthol crystals from Gumby96 on eBay gumby96 items - Get great deals on Collectibles, Crafts items on eBay.com! Just get the 2oz bag, it will last you forever.
