zonomo Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I am still too new to really understand eJuices. I'd love a link to a tutorial if anyone has one. But I was reading somewhere that some people prefer 100% VG. Why would they do that and what is the benefit or circumstance? Thanks from the Seattle Noob.

bcartervol98 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I prefer more VG than PG but still like some PG in there. 65-70%vg is my sweet spot. I no longer want really any throat hit under normal circumstances and just like the way it tastes better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 100% VG will not work well with most tanks and clearos and is mainly used by drippers it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 They do it for the lingering fog. More vapor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Well and more vapor lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonomo Posted March 9, 2014 Author Share Posted March 9, 2014 OK, that makes sense. I vape at 0 nic so I am not into a throat hit anyway. Also, I am 100% a Tank guy. Sounds like I should stick to 50/50. Is it more VG or PG that makes it thicker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebop Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 More vg I do 60 to 70 vg in a tank just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compenstine Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 The other reason would be because of an allergy to PG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 More vg I do 60 to 70 vg in a tank just fine. 70 is about the max without modifying coils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vispera Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Yeah I never had a problem with my 40/60 pg / vg juices any higher I get dry hits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 My High Five from Good Life Vapors is still steeping but when I bought it the guy who sold it to me said that I should remove 1 of the flavor wicks in my KPT coil because it is 100% VG usually sold to people who vaped with mods and rebuildable tanks. He said I would have problems with dry hits if I didn't. I don't plan on doing it though unless I have to. I brought it up in the forum when I first bought it and the elders said they did not think it was going to be necessary. I hope not. He showed me how to do it and those flavor wicks are tiny and it takes a steady hand to remove them with tweezers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love2VapeDaily Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Medic sent me some juices when he started his diy juices. What he sent me was 95% vg. Vaped just fine in my original kpt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zonomo Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Vaped Bobas bounty in my pro tank 2&3 with out modifications and it 100% vg Hum, should it not work because its too thick? I mainly vape on PT 2 and 3's too. I have a few iClears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEFFiCART Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Hum, should it not work because its too thick? I mainly vape on PT 2 and 3's too. I have a few iClears. some people have mixed experiences with 100vg juice and protanks my friends around me that vape that use protanks with 100vg juice are vaping fine but I have read many instances where that is the complete opposite from others where 100vg will simply not work. I guess it all depends on the juice. and maybe the ohm and voltage setting can have an effect on the results as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartervol98 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 It also depends on the flavoring used. Some thin it out some keep it thick. Most liquids are about 60-70% base and 30-40% flavoring I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MostlySunny Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I use 100% VG because I have adverse reactions to PG. Itching and burning sensations etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillBlack Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I just don't like VG and the thick chest feeling I get. Much prefer the lighter, crisper hit of PG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshuab3687 Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 As far as OP is concerned... The benefit of high VG is, as you can tell, subjective! If you're using Rebuildable Dripping Atomizers (RDAs), then high VG juices are preferable for exhaling large amounts of vapor! If flavor is where you're headed, then go with a higher PG ratio. The PG carries the flavor and throat hit, whereas the VG carries the vapor and sweetness. If you are using standard Kanger coils (i.e. stock,not rebuilt), they don't like to wick high VG juices as fast as 50/50 or higher PG, you may wind up with dry hits. I hope this helps Love2VapeDaily 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ej1024 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 If you want to taste the juice u got to go with at least 50/50 vg/pgNow if u want to blow clouds then go 100%vg but that's not vaping its called PLAYING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same way. Fadoravapor makes some killer juice in just about any ratio you cam imagine and what I'm vaping on right now is a 10pg/90vg that is phenominal flavor and giant clouds! Its the best of both worlds! ej1024 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They stop short of calling it 100% VG but it is a 100% VG base with flavors that contain some PG. Either way the taste is incredible. Order a sampler of Unicorn Blood and you will retract this statement lol. I cannot even stand 50-50 anymore, and I use a tank. The flavorings thin it out plenty to wick fine in my KPT 2s and Davide Minis. I have a 70pg-30vg Spearmint I keep for occasions I do not want much vapor and need to be satisfied by a draw or two (Airplanes, restaurant bathrooms, airports, social functions in indoors environments etc...) but I can only take it for a little while. 20 days from 1 year smoke free, and I do not want any throat hit anymore lol. ej1024 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
