Really confused help me!!!!

[MJS]

Hey guys so following on from my first post, have got my mini pro tank 2 and it's excellent!!

Bought some tobacco flavoured juice from a local shop unsure or pg / vg ratio but it's very hard hitting on the chest, leaves me wheezy and heavy chested after 3 - 4 puffs.

So not sure if this is because of a high pg or vg ratio? I'm guessing to high PG ??

so going to mix my own here is what I'm after
100% vg juice with 72 mg nic base vg.

how do I mix this ??

do I dilute the vg with 10% distilled water?
how do I take into account the vg in the nic base if I wanted to mix say 80 / 20 vg/pg.??


So confused

much love.!

Nearly all flavor concentrates are PG based so if you do a mix with 10% flavor your mix will be 90 VG 10 PG and so on.

I find I am having problems with juice that is too high in VG in the EVODs, as the mini pro tank has the same atomizer, you might want to start with a 70/30 PG/VG and make your way down. Right at the top of the forum (if youa re using it from a PC) there is a link for the calculator for mixing, this takes into account the PG contained in the flavour.
sorry - this one is the one I found better - looks like a soap making calculator :-)

there is a calculator on here that will help...on top banner i think

id personally go 50/50 as such a vg heavy juice will then bring its own problems with wicking as its so much thicker....personally?...i use 16-18 mg juices....mixing 50/50 is easy....if you want to make it REALLY easy...get your gear from ltecigs....they do a premixed 50/50 nic juice in whatever nic content you want.....so i buy the vpg 50/50 18mg.....simply add your flavouring of choice...i find once the flavour is added this is about 16mg

I find it doesn't wick well, especially if I am outside where it is cold - not so much a problem when indoors. I get the odd dry burn. Tastes disgusting and can't be healthy either.

I did a total clean earlier, washed it, removed the chimney and flavour wicks (they are a pain in the neck!!) and dry burned it clean, washed it again and refilled tank with fresh juice and now it is better. Have noticed that the wick is all black though, so impatiently awaiting my replacement heads, hopefully tomorow. Once I have 10 or so, I will recoil mself, as it looks really easy

Cheers guys great info.

Whilst researching I'm coming across people saying they have tight heavy chests and wheezing too, but it seems 50 -50 split that people get it with either higher pg or vg????

surely they both can't have the same negative effect ??

It is 18 mg baccy flavour too is that any reason??

much love.!
