Throat bite/ Harshness from vaping after a gap..

[Wishkr]

Hello friends,
This is my first post, although I have been a vaper for year and a half and am following this great forum for all the knowladge treasure it offers. Thanks Team-e-cigarette-forum.com for this essential place for all vaping aficionados.

I have this question ...
After every gap in vaping I experience a harsher throat bite/ itch (irrespective of the tanks and setups for vaping) this thing goes after some 15 to 20 puffs...after that the vape smooths out. I have been searching for the reason as to why this happens. BTW I vape on 6mg e-juice and am a restrictive lung hit vaper. So here, after searching for the reason why this happens, I came to this conclusion. have prepared some info-graphics to explain what i came up to.

Now I would request you good vapers here to share your thoughts on the info which would follow this post. Thank you

I think you might be a tiny bit off regarding the nic as the primary factor. Nic does not bind "all the other molecules". One, it chemically just plain can't, and two even if it could, there are a lot more other molecules than inc in the solution, and three, no one I know of vapes a 100 mg/ml solution (but I certainly don't know every single vaping preference, so there may very well be someone out there who does).

What's more likely is this. As a wick sits overnight there is no feed into the portion of wick in the coil. That stuff sits there, evaporates a bit concentrating whatever remains in/on the wick (depending on all the molecules in there), and in general just hangs out. When you start vaping again, that juice is the first to vaporize, and may not be in the best shape. As that vaporizes off, the wick will pull fresh juice on from the juice holes (if it's working correctly). After several puffs, the center of the wick, the part in the coil, will be vaporizing that "fresh" juice, which might taste a bit better, eliminating the harshness. TBH, I've never had that experience on the first draw of the day in any of my RTAs.

If you're using factory coils and/or storing your tanks upside down (some folks do to prevent seeping out the air holes) your wick will definitely be dryer in the morning, and benefit from a brief priming at low wattage before going at it.

I have occasional throat hit after tanks sit overnight. I wondered if it might be due to pg & nic being lighter settle to bottom of tank. I think Eskie is probably closer to truth.

I may have a few harsh hits in the morning.
I attribute it to the 8 hours of clean air i was breathing while sleeping..

I've noticed this- when I first vaped with a decent battery (for the time) I found the throat hit almost painful at first. And when I've come back to vaping (especially after smoking) it has been the same. Within a day or so it stopped being so. I'm inclined to think that a lot of this effect is simply due to the fact that we're very adaptable creatures. Give someone a novel stimulus and they'll respond strongly to it. Repeat the stimulus over a short period of time and the response will drop off.

no one I know of vapes a 100 mg/ml solution

1) you know somebody who has.

2) 100mg/ml = roughly 10%

3) oxidation makes nic and flavors harsh

Everything is exposed to air when left for any period.
