A month in and I've had cartomizers from Blu and then I've ordered tons of juices from Volcano (80PG/20VG @0MG) and a bunch of flavors as well from vaporbomb (80PG/20VG @ 0MG.) So basically yea...my stuff so far has basically been 80PG/20GV (what the Blu cartomizers are I don't know.)

Anyways I'm about to order some juices from pinkspotvapors but they do things a bit differently. They don't have a set value that they fill orders with...they make each order custom to what the customer wants (you pick how much VG you want and how much PG you want!)

I'm not use to this and am not sure if I should stick with 80PG/20VG or if I should pick another combo? From what I've heard most people say, they say the 80/20 mix still keeps the flavor alive but increases the vape where everyone is happy.

So since I have a choice this time I wanted to see what you guys thought before I ordered the same ole' mix.

Thanks

Edit, forgot you use all cartos and no Atty's, although I use all VG in my Boge 2ohm cartos and dual coil cartos and even Iken cartos, I would still try a 50/50 and an all VG so you see what it is like vaping these mixes as well as an all VG, you can always thin up your all VG with a very little bit of distilled water or PG to help you if your cartos have an issue with it, but mine dont. just use the condom fill and drip some through the top and let em sit for a bit, you may like the Higher VG or all VG better, I do.

You said "I'm not use to this and am not sure if I should stick with 80PG/20VG or if I should pick another combo? From what I've heard most people say, they say the 80/20 mix still keeps the flavor alive but increases the vape where everyone is happy."


It depends, to some degree, on what equipment you're using. In my case, I use an eGo PV with Boge LR cartos. By testing, I've found that I need to use 70/30 PG/VG or thinner - otherwise it clogs up my cartos and shortens their life. Also, if I use thicker juices, I often get "burnt wick" taste, because the juice is too thick to wick to the heating element as fast as I vape. I've found that a different blend works with attys, different with carts, and different with CE2's. Each type of equipment has a different blend that works best and makes the equipment last longest. Only testing will tell, and that means getting into making DIY juice blends. If you're at all scientifically inclined, this can be an interesting addition to your vaping, and increase your enjoyment of vaping as a pastime.
