Well done on getting to this step, tenacity and perseverance. I might hazard a guess you have a intolerance to PG. Is the juice your useing now 100% VG? Or is it something like 20%pg 80% VG. Most flavouring concentrates do come in pg only however more companies are now doing 100% VG liquids. There is an old discussion on the forum here allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/31118/100-vg-liquid-recommendationsI'm using 100% VG according to them. I must admit I was sceptical but it seems to be hitting the spot for me. It maybe that its just better quality than I have tried before or I do have an intolerance to PG? I may try a few samplers with a low PG content and take it from there. I cannot take a sneaky puff like others do in work as the vapour just hangs around like scene from a horror movie but that said I don't seem to be wanting to hit it every 2 minutes like they do either which could be due to using a 24 nicotine content.

Hi OP, welcome to the forum. One thing has surprised me is that i'm assuming that the Kanger mini tanks are protank mini's and as igual above mentions, i would be surprised is they could keep up with a 100% VG juice. Put us out of our misery and post a picture of the label for us Of the tank or the Juice? Not sure I could get a picture of the laser etching of the Tank but 1 of them is already tasting slightly burnt given it's only a week. To be honest with the red bull flavour I'm using at the moment the slightly burnt taste seems to add to it. I've ordered an Iclear 30 to try what would you recommend for 100%VG based juice?

watsits I couldn't get on with the tobacco juices either, they neither taste like tobacco or even pleasant to me, thankfully there's countless other options to choose from.

Have a look at smokerainbow www.smokerainbow.comYou can get loads of samples from here not sure about high VG ratios though. But it would give you the chance to try some different juices and see how you get on.

hey there.. everything your saying i can relate to 100%
the cheepy ecig things sold in the average corner shops and other places now are a great way to find out if you like vaping.. but you soon start to get pissed off with them and back on the fags..
i too went to a kanger tank and a better battery along with some really nice flavours.... i have to admit i smoked the odd roll up at certain times but used the e cig the rest of the time.. i then switched to a rebuildable device and a mod ( battery ) with full control over the power.. havent touched a fag in over 8 months, and was a heavy smoker for over 25 years.
but the bottom line is well done and stick with vaping..
one definite top tip for the stage your at is have spares of EVERYTHING... if something dies, runs out or breaks and you only have the one of them the only other option is a pack of smokes.. i fell over so many times due to not having juice, spares, batteries etc.

Only tanks that might keep up with a pure 100% VG would be rebuildable tanks like the orchid,kayfun,lemo or drippers. I might be wrong though as I mostly vape 50/50

I'm waiting on some for the Protank mini to arrive. One is tasting burnt and the other doesn't seem to give much vapour off at all now but tastes fine. I'm determined not to go back to Ciggies no matter what even if I have to try and set fire to my juice and inhale it that way lol.

It's from the stockport-e-cig-company There are no ratios on the label just VG Based. They may have been telling me the truth or it could be the fact I've got better kit this time I've no idea either way it does seem to be agreeing with me this time round.

watsits- hi and a warm welcome from me too. It's always wise to assume that coils last a week of fairly continuous vaping. If you buy enough spares, and one last longer, you are only saving the £2.50 it costs for a new head. If you want to order a bit more in bulk try Fasttech in China, the easiest way we know of spending money! Kanger Dual Coil heads 1.8ohmKanger Single Coil heads 1.8ohmFasttech also sell a vast range of batteries, mods, tanks peripherals and other goodies (including juice) which will quickly and effectively drain your wallet. The downside? The shipping is free, but usually takes between 2-3 weeks to arrive on these shores from the Far East. If you can wait, you won't be disappointed!

I've always been dubious of buying from China due to the vast amount of fakes I have had to deal with in the radio business in the past. Saying that though just about everything comes from there in the first place so are they fakes or the genuine article? It's like the chicken and the egg which came first Jesus I've just had a look is there anything they haven't got! it'll take a week just to go through the batteries.

Hi Watsits,I'm coming on to give you a slapped wrist! You Say you have 'only' Bern smoke free for 10 days, which is nowhere near the rest of us. While that is true, it is irrelevant! 10 days is a huge achievement, and what you have to remember is that those 10 days as your first 10 days will have been so much more difficult than the last 10 days for any of us who are accustomed to it, give yourself some credit and DON'T compare!!! That said, hello and welcome
