70/30 Needs a Sub Ohm Coil
The extra VG makes this liquid thick, and thick liquid needs a coil with wide wicking ports and enough power to vaporise it. That means a sub ohm coil, typically 0.4 to 0.8 ohm in a pod kit or lower in a tank, running at the middle of its printed wattage range. In that setup 70/30 gives dense clouds, a soft throat hit and full flavour, and the coil stays wet.
In a tight 1.0 ohm pod it behaves badly. The cotton cannot pull the liquid through fast enough, so you get a dry, burnt puff after every few draws. If your kit is a small MTL pod, stay on 50/50. If it has a sub ohm option, this is the ratio to use, and because every puff carries so much vapour you only need 3mg or 6mg to get the nicotine you want.
Buying 70/30
Mostly shortfills
50ml bottles take one nic shot for about 3mg, 100ml take two. Add the shots to your order or the bottle arrives at 0mg.
10ml for MTL sub ohm
A few ranges here come in 10ml at 3mg or 6mg. They suit kits that run both a 0.8 ohm coil and a 50/50 liquid, when you want more cloud.
Prime, then power up
Thick liquid takes longer to soak a new coil. Fill, wait five minutes, take three unpowered puffs, then start at the low end of the wattage range.
70% VG E-Liquid FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is 70/30 the same as 70% VG?
Yes. It means 70 parts vegetable glycerine to 30 parts propylene glycol. On this site both labels refer to the same blend.
Can I vape 70/30 in a pod kit?
Only in a sub ohm pod kit with a coil of 0.8 ohm or lower. In a standard MTL pod with a 1.0 ohm or tighter coil it wicks too slowly and burns the cotton.
What nicotine strength should I use with 70/30?
3mg for most sub ohm vapers, 6mg if you were a heavier smoker. Higher strengths are harsh at this vapour volume, which is why nearly all 70/30 shortfills are mixed to 3mg with nic shots.
Does 70/30 shorten coil life?
Slightly, because thicker liquid leaves more residue. A sub ohm coil on 70/30 typically lasts one to two weeks. Very sweet dessert flavours shorten that more than the ratio does.
