My roommates are not huge fans of me vaping in the house, so I kind of want to meet them half way and mix up some "stealth juice".
I have been playing with unflavored VG base and find I actually like it a lot. I ordered some unflavored PG base and I'm wondering if it can be mixed with distilled water to reduce vapor output even further.
What is the max percentage of water you can run without running into flooding problems from too thin of a liquid?

The 'V' in VG stands for vapor. To reduce vapor, go with higher PG percentage mixes. This will also increase throat hit.

PG is already almost water thin, so don't add water to it. High VG juices benefit from water to make it thinner so it will flow better in cargos and tanks. Water will not necessarily reduce the quantity of vapor produced.

PG only and use only flavors that are available as air fresheners or incense and then buy the matching incense or air fresheners. If you're on the lease & paying toward the rent, what you do in your own room is your business as long as it stays in your room. Moving in with less judgmental roommates is also an option.

I think you will find the PG much less vaporous;

I've used water in my eliquids, and if you add some I think you'll find as little as 10% water will make a noticeable difference;

But caution: I stopped adding water to my liquids because that confounded 510 connection on batteries and mods is not SEALED, and after having one battery smoke out and meltdown on me, I am a bit paranoid about liquid going down inside the battery (especially WATER); I even use 2 adapters between the battery and the tank to distance the liquid from the battery.

I think an education of room mates is in order. They obviosly are of the opinion that vaping is just as harmful as cigarettes. If this is not the case then they are just ball busters and I myself would not want to live with a bunch of ball busters. There is much information on the internet on this subject that you can refer them to.

Maybe so but not now:
Lol, I actually do have a high capacity HEPA filter in my room, and I just put in a really nice furnace filter.
My roommates just don't like the visible vapor, it's not based on any real logical reasoning, but it's their house and I don't want to argue with them.

"roommates" isn't exactly it.

If I had somebody in my home and I were a non smoker and they started using substances in my home, I'd be rather concerned
