I love this place! And a question on vg/pg ratios and cloud vs flavor.

I seriously love this forum. I get so much inspiration. I actually drove PAST my local vape store today and didn't have the urge to go in!!

So here is my question. I know most people do 70/30 or max vg for cloud production. But I understand that it's the pg that carries the flavor. So I'm not into clouds so much as I am the flavor. My setup is a Reuleaux 200 with the tfv8 q8 sometimes q6.

Is there a happy spot with the ratio to get the most flavor out of my juice? I'm a former smoker (2 months quit) and my smeller doesn't work like it used to so it seems that I require stronger flavors than most.

Also how do you test your juices daily? Can I fill up a tank and test it like that or do y'all use a dripper? I don't want to buy another setup but I do have a rebuildable of some sort that my son left when he moved.

Whew.... don't ya love newbies??

Most common ratio for flavor and reasonable vapor is 50/50. It will generally work in most cases but might tend to get a little warm at high wattage. I use a dripper for juice testing but little else. I have 4 or 5, something like that, but they see little use. You can certainly use a tank, rebuildable would work well since you don't have to rinse and dry if you are testing several juices, just rewick. You do of course have to drain and clean and refill, which is a bit more work than rinsing and rewicking a dripper. There are some inexpensive single coil drippers out there that would serve the purpose if you decide to do so.

Yup 50/50 should work as mentioned.
I'd try lowering the watts down, and/or trying some single coil builds at 1 ohm or higher.
But usually works better with dialed down airflow, MTL IMO.
Joyetech Tron-S with 1 ohm CLR coils (not included)(but you can rebuild them).
Pretty cheap and you can DL or MTL, (might even find a used one).

Personally I have mixed the same flavor DIY in 90/10 VG/PG and 60/40 VG/PG and did not notice any difference in the taste only less cloud.
