No throat hit - help please

[Debbie13]

Ok guys, have been mixing for some months now, hubby for longer, no matter what we do or use the throat hit on most of them is rubbish.  Have tried a little more nicotine, more PG, added vodka and although it improved them a little it just isnt enough.....hubby even made a 100% PG mix using T Juice High Voltage.  Still not that good. 
Premixed from Vapemunki at 6% is very flavorsome and fab throat hit.  The mixes we did are a range of 6% and gone upto about 12% lots of flavour but no throat hit to speak of....tried in different tanks, hubby has a Vamo I have a VTR.....
HELP

I don't do throat hit Deb, so can't be very helpful . . . but F'arts used to make something called Bite Xtra, that was supposed to help give a harsher hit. Don't know if it's available still and would be worth trying?

Hubby has an Aerotank mega, I have an aerotank, many other tanks too....all fantastic with other juices....so I know its not them....
The aerotanks are 2 ohms....I think the others are 1.8 to 2....
Have a mixture of mixes....some 50/50 and range upto 70/30 and even 80/20 etc...

even if you crank the mods up to full wack there is no slight throat hit ?

and 100 pg and still nothing thats very strange to me that would kill me lol and on the mega you have not got the air hole right open have you becuase that wont help becuase its letting more air in what gives you more vapor but less hit as far as i know

Debbie13 only thing i can think of is some juices give good throat hit and some don't, i would say more don't than do.

For instance DY4 gives good throat hit but DY3 not as much....both mixed at the same percentages.

Also i tend to find dessert flavours give very little compared to others.

[Debbie13]

Hubby just wacked his wattage upto 15 and still not much, I do get a little throat hit ...loads of flavor for both of us but a little like breathing in.....
Hole on aero in on low hes tried it all ways.....
Tried a few juices ( DIY ) all lovely flavours but little to no throat hit...
I do get more of a hit than hubby does.....

I agree with that, what is really annoying is that Premixed T Juice high voltage gives the throat hit yet the diy mix does not 

Spent a fortune on all the mixing gear and still not got anything that is vapeable per say....lovely flavors but no throat hit

Debbie13 could also be your throat adjusting....this happens to me, another example is if i vape something with good throat hit and then vape something with not so much good throat hit i get pretty much none at all even though i know it gives throat hit...if that makes sense

That is strange, maybe check that your nic base is pg (presuming it is) and that your pg is pg....could be supplied incorrect due to labelling or something.

Also double check the percentages you put into the mixing calculator are correct

[Debbie13]

I think maybe the former could be true.....hubby has a real addiction to Spider Venom...Cinnamon galore....I too love the stuff but dont vape it as much as hubby does, now this juice grabs your throat, hits ya tastebuds and shakes like hell!!! I have told him that other juices are not going to give him the same......but thinking back....he had this issue before the SV addiction....but I dont think its helped LOL....
Looking at this FA Bite Xtra......maybe that will help...just reading about it now....

PG checked....against another one we have...check......
Checked the Nic Base....all good.

Have also double checked the calculator percentages....all seems good ???

Got some cinnamon mixed up....needs another week or so but gonna get him to test it and see if its the spiceyness that he seems to miss too .....

Ginger is another spicy flavour that can give a bit of ' bite ' Debbie13 . . . I like Capella's Gingerbread, although that's quite a soft version - TPA's take on it is considerably hotter.

Try a menthol sample from jjs if that don't smack ur throat I don't know what will,

[Debbie13]

Who is jjs masteedman? He gets the throat hit from many but it lacks a little on home mixes.....

So days on and I made an order for some Bite Extra......hubby then went to a new shop in town....although he has purchased from them online.....he purchased a small bottle of PG.....anyway, the bite extra made a huge difference......very happy with that......then he made a 10ml up with the new PG.....a make we had never used....and yup yup yup a difference was made so hubby tells me.....I on the other hand got some throat hit from previous mixes.......so all seems good again. We have come to the conclusion that some flavors just dont hit the spot lol....so still buying some concentrates and some premixed......happy with it


Is it possible that you get used to a brand of PG? ???
