Love MTL but PG irritates my throat

[AquaticGnu]

So, I like mtl vaping, especially out and about or when I don’t want to creat a weather system. Only issue is higher amounts of PG make me cough a lung. Can you use an mtl RTA with higher VG liquids? I guess it would sacrifice nicotine content, but would reduce the throat hit. Would 60vg wick okay?

I only vape 50/50, but I think many on here do fine at MTL on many tanks with 60/40 VG/PG.

If you mix your own you could try looking at aqueous glycerine - the problem with high VG juice for MTL is that VG tends to be gloopier than PG and doesn't wick so well.

Quite agree with what @Crewella has said.
Many people use 60vg 40pg in MTL tanks with stock coils.
You can get away with 70vg 30pg in some tanks, but that's about the max.

I vape somewhere in between MTL & DTL, so have several stock coil tanks, and RDA's, RDTA's.
As I mix some of my own juices I have tried several mixes for my stock coil tanks using aqueous glycerine, with either 10% or 20% water in the AVG.

Also using VG with distilled water added into a mix (note, if this is done on a long term basis you need to buy Pharma Grade DW, not just everyday DW from Halfords)

Mixing like this opens up all sorts of opportunities, you can end up with juice that is as thick, or thin as you want, keep PG levels down if you are allergic, and if you don't like PG, but miss the "throat hit of high VG mix in some Vodka instead of DW, and it will increase the "throat hit".

60VG is fine.... Spiritwalker is 60% VG and I never had an issue with that even in the original nautilus when I first started vaping. 70% VG has been very hit and miss for me when I've tried. In an RTA's, it can probably work fine but I expect you'll have to be more careful how you coil and wick.

I’ve never heard of aqueous glycerin, looks like I’ll have to do some research. And finally learn to mix my own e liquid (something I’ve been putting off for a while).
Thanks for the help, I’ll start off with 60vg while I figure out the mixing process and get some aqueous glycerin!

Vape green specialise in pg free juice that's suitable for all.
They have some great advice for mtl vapers who have pg allergies too. Worth a look.

Side note. I'd avoid their kona coffee juice. Strong stuff and an individual flavour plus you'll need to bin the tank you try it in after if it's not for you.
an expensive gamble.

so you can use their 100vg for mtl? Sounds like a good idea until I learn to mix my own.. now I have to try the Kona coffee

aqueous glycerin i think is 90% vg 10% distilled water to thin it out a bit more.

Is there different qualities of pg? I did a comparison between a Black Panther 20mg nic salt and a Dainty’s ry4 12mg nic salt, for whatever reason the dainty’s one was hurting my throat, but the black panther one wasn’t
