Hello & welcome, Britt. Sounds like you've made a good start on your vaping journey, apart from the PG hiccup. Well done!

[brittaei]

Thank you both

Hi Britt, and a warm welcome from Scotland.

I also had a reaction to pg, my face started to come out in a spot type rash, now that didn't happen straight away, I had been vaping for three months before it showed its ugly head.

It took me about a week to think that it was maybe caused by vaping, so the usual done a bit of research and found others had the same problem.

What I have done was to dilute my pg with vg, didn't want to cut it out totally because I still like to get the throat hit, so whatever I'm mixing it's now 50%pg and 50%vg

Now no longer get the irritation on my chin, maybe worth a go, by the way what reaction do you have to it.

Regards

Duke.

I couldn't breathe. It felt like someone put a tight band around my chest and then just tightened it even more. It scared the **** out of me to be honest, lol
After a lot of questions and advice I found that the probable cause was the PG. But I also suspected too high nic level at 18 mg/ml so I reduced it. I also tried for days to find different techniques to draw until I got the pure VG and could use the kit without a problem
I am going to try to slowly introduce PG again, I just have to work up some courage first

Hi and welcome Britt

Hi Britt

I'm glad you identified the problem and pleased vaping is helping with the quitting smoking.

Hi Britt, and welcome.

[brittaei]

Thank you all

[duke]

Now, that does sound frightening.

"I couldn't breathe. It felt like someone put a tight band around my chest and then just tightened it even more. It scared the **** out of me to be honest, lol"

Let's hope you have gotten to the root of it Britt, certainly introducing back in small doses sounds the road to go.

All that's left to say is, best of luck, and keep us posted.

It was frightening, it was as if my lungs just shut down or collapsed or something, and it took a good few seconds before I could draw in any air again. That's the reason I need to muster up some courage before trying to reintroduce it

As it is now I'm trying to slowly up the nic strength to see if that will remove the last cravings for stinkies..  And also want to try VV to see if I can get a smoother vape even if I up the nic.. Just waiting for batteries to arrive for the LT I happened to get for real cheap

Next step?? Try to somehow get an atty that actually look good on the LT, can't say the mini nova is a stunner on there, lmao. That have to wait for a little while though..


And thank you Lobeydosser, it sure is

I reckon you'll need something big on there - maybe a Protank or iClear 30? It's not exactly a delicate bit of kit, is it?
