Pg/vg

[Annie123]

Hi all I just wanted to share this in case it helps others.
I found I was wheezing quite a bit on 50/50 pg/vg or even 70/30 pg/vg.
Since experimenting I have found 80/20 pg/vg to be perfect.
No more tight chest or wheezing.
Hope it helps

Just to confirm (because it's generally the convention now to state the ratios in the order VG/PG, even though you did specify) - you found reducing the VG content and increasing PG worked better for you?

Correct yes, I think it's because vg is thicker.

Possibly.

It's more likely though that you have a bit of an intolerance to VG.

Apparently PG intolerance is a bit more common, but there are those of us who don't get on with VG.

Glad you're getting on better now It's actually surprisingly common how many people get this (my Mum and a friend of mine had the same problem) it's more prevalent with people newer to vaping but you still see it quite a bit with experienced vapers. It's also quite common for people with this issue to also have a problem with heavily flavoured eliquid so that might be something else to watch out for.

It's rare now that I use any flavourings at all...
