Migraines / 100% VG Supply

Hmmmm...

There are various sweeteners used in mixes, maybe the mixer may use Sweetener, or Stevia or Ethyl Maltol, or Super Sweetener ,it could be just one of those sweeteners ,that are triggering the migraines...

Have you thought,of trying a high VG Custard juice, from your vendor, say 10ml? .

or better.. ordering the Sweet Caramel juice in 10ml, in a higher VG mix...... even better, if
this juice, could be ordered using 4 different sweeteners, ie 4x10ml bottles... or ask the 'mixer', which type of sweetener he uses in the caramel mix...

When vaping 50/50 3mg menthol, this means although, PG is quite high, this is offset ,as your nic is reduced in strength by 50% to 3mg,
maybe try the 50/50 menthol at 6mg?? - see if you have any adverse reaction..

Personally, I would advise that anyone who has just quit cigarettes, not to start vaping at 6mg...
The body's natural reaction is to crave nicotine, after just quitting, so I would advise to start
at a higher mg, then the newbie wouldnt get regular cravings,so no need to chain vape..

 

I completely agree about new vapers and Nic%- this is my main argument with current new regulation under TPD regulations ( a maximum of 20mg NIC ) because when I kicked cigarettes, in 2011, and was smoking 10-20 cigs per day, I would definitely not have succeeded on any lower than the 36 mg NIC that I was given.

To Chilli Pepper, I wasn't aware that you were new to Vaping (?) but if so, are you using a Sub-Ohm kit? Anyway, stick to High VG for a long period as a true test.

 

I totally agree that I don't touch the flavours that originally were instrumental in getting me off cigarettes ( they were predominantly Tobacco flavours, which I can barely smell, let alone Vape, these days)

If that works for you, you would have done 50% of what DIY requires you to do.

DIY is not about imitating a Breaking Bad episode, it can be very simple ^^ VG base, one flavor and nicotine. If you start to buy juices and "remix" them, you will be better off starting a basic DIY session.

As per what you are vaping now, the quality of the juice (meaning the quality of PG, VG, flavoring and sweeteners they use) is to take into consideration. My worst reaction was with Thai juice 70/30 that I bought 150thb. I could however vape without trouble a high quality juice with the same ratio.

But @Chili Pepper : do NOT give up.

 

Yes, agree with Tibo- but, only one point in that Tibo- says his worst reaction was from a Thai juice... Etc.. well, this is the one problem with buying juices from other sources than made by yourself, you never really, really know what they have mixed in with it. I once passed a juice on to another Vaper, who then gave it to a new user, who had such a bad reaction that he ended up in hospital, after just a few vapes!! I, now, only Vape Home Made or very Well Known Brands.

I said it like that because that was how I thought DIY was ! I really thought you needed a degree in chemistry to make even the simplest of juice ^^

 

Doesn't everyone mix in Metamphet with their juices???

When I first started mixing 3 years ago...

I was using syringes & measuring cylinders, then having to clean these afterwards, got a bit tedious..

Then I started to mix by weight, far easier, and less to clean up ....



Then it got even easier.....

Some UK vendors sell their concentrates as a 'one shot'.... this means for example 'Mothers Milk'
it may say- mix at 20% for example... this is a 30ml concentrate ,with all the flavours already pre-mixed..

30ml mixed at 20% gives 150ml of eliquid...

 

Totally agree, juice is important.
Arriving in Thailand, that was also trouble for me, With some juices (Chinese copy or what else nobody knows ) i got migraine, some other time scratching. I imagine I got allergie to pg to e cig and have to stop...... etc....
In fact I just came back to good juice, or good concentrate with the good people around the the forum

 

I used concentrate a few years ago from one company. Unfortunately, although their juice was really nice, the lady mixing the juices had to concentrate on other business interests more profitable and shut down.

When I was mixing I used to make up concentrates like this as well. It is so damned easy. lol

 

Seems to be pointing towards the combination of sweeteners and PG as the 50/50 menthol was fine. hopefully you can get a higher VG of the flavours you like so that towel stays out of the ring. #F-thestinkies

Good luck CP.

 

@Chili Pepper
