Well, the reason why I like VG better mainly started because I think I am sorta alergic to PG. I wasnt feeling myself and seemed it was starting to make me feel VERY anxious... Not a very comfortable or pleasent sensation at all. I decided to use the ECOpure that came with an order from innovaper for several days stright to see it it had a different effect on me then PG. After 4 striaght days of vaping it, I was totally hooked. I do have to say that the throat hit is nowhere near PG, however, the vapor prduction is FAR superior to PG and after several days of the switch, I cant stand straight PG (which my girl friend prefers and still vapes). I do/can now mix a 50/50 PG/VG mix and its pretty nice. I actually perfer like a 70/20 mix, but if its a flavored PG then its dumbed down quite a bit.

Bottom Line: It depends on if you care for the throat hit or the vapor prduction. I for one didnt think I could vape without a throat hit and truley enjoy it.... I was dead wrong! This actually is awesome cause when I finally get down to 0 nic, I wont have to worry about a throat hit withdrawal as well ;)

I've tried VG and PG versions of the same brand , and to be honest..i don't see much if any difference.

The reason most go with VG is because they have a reaction to PG.

Ofcourse there is now PEG based liquids ( don't ask me )

each base has it's pro's and cons..
most lab tests of liquid recommend replacing the PG base with Glycerine due to PG being listed as a respitory irritant.( haha go figure )

Is PG the one everyone is saying has that antifreeze stuff in it, or is that something else?


that is actually Di-ethylene Glycol. and propylene glycol is used in almost everything in creation. check the ingredients of your cosmetics, foods, even um...personal lubricants. you will most likely see PG everywhere. it is ubiquitous and the FDA and press are stupid not to think people wont check ingredients in things and see they're full of crap.

Pretty new to vaping, but all i've used so far is PG and i'm fine with it. I've read on other threads that some people get digestive problems using VG (........, etc.). Since i already HAVE persistent stomach problems, i'm staying away from it. I'm not taking the risk of making it worse just to try VG when PG suits me fine.

I felt the same but on March 24th I went on zero nicotine as we were exhibiting at a big Trade Show and I knew I would be demonstrating all day.
It felt so good after one day that I carried on the next day and the next. I almost felt I had been cheated as I suffered absolutely no withdrawal symptoms from the nicotine or the throat hit. Over 5 months later and I still use my EVO, the shiny polished steel version, but nowhere near as much as I used to in the pre-zero days. The mere sensation of something going down my throat is enough to satisfy the psychological craving and easily fools my body into thinking I've had a smoke! I didn't work my way down either, I went from vaping 18mg straight to zero.
Did I inadvertently mention the silver EVO? It will be available soon, a few weeks to allow us to build our stock levels and our suppliers levels across Europe, Africa, Asia and the Americas as we already have over 5,000 pre-ordered!
