I am a newb and been experimenting with alot of flavors and combonations I was wondering what is the best way to get the thickest vapor possible.  I used to smoke cigars alot and I am searching for a way to get that heavy kinda vapor like you would from a cigar smoke.  If that makes any sense to anyone at all thanx in advance

VG all the way I'd say, that gives you the longest hanging vapour. I use PEG400 and VG myself, and even I'm surprised by the amount that gives.

VG nic and VG diluent would just about stop me seeing!

Yep, gotta agree with Gaz, all VG gives the most dense vapour, but PEG/VG mixed ain't a slouch either.

I tend to agree with the above, but I have to say that PEG cut with neat BP glycerine, the thick goopy stuff you can get from the chemist/pharmacist, the stuff that looks like it ought to be leaking from an undabbed winter nostril, yeilds (absolutely) the best cumulus nimbus known to vaping...

Love it Jaded!
I'm a newbie and the thickest vapour I've had so far is; 36mg mint choc chip red label. It's thick on the draw and exhale..

Yes, Platinum Ice is available in PG (Propylene Glycol), PEG400 (Polyethylene Glycol) or VG/AG (Vegetable or Aqueous Glycerin) bases and the same diluents.

Hiya Hackfroman, vodka is used to dilute neat glycerin slightly to give a bit of extra throat hit as glycerin has little throat hit on it's own, but it doesn't affect the vapour production.

Use a low resistance atomizer or cartomizer.  I've found that increases vapor production and throat hit more than anything else.  You'll need a big batt like the Tornado or Screwdriver.  The LR attys work best when direct dripping.  They tend to burn the fluval when using a cart. 

Low resistance cartomizers are amazing with a true 3.7V battery like the Screwdriver.  I used to smoke cigars every now and then and I think I get just as much density and throat hit off a freshly filled LR carto as I ever got smoking a cigar.  However, TW does not sell LR cartos (yet?).

What would the ratio be for that Jaded?  I only ask as I would have thought too much of the BP would cause atty problems??

I use 20-25% BP Glycerine in my mixes and have been using the same LR atomiser for the last six weeks.
