50/50 E-Liquids

50/50 vape juice is blended with equal parts VG and PG, giving a thinner e-liquid with a noticeable throat hit and clear flavour. It suits pod kits, vape starter kits and MTL tanks, and covers most nic salts and 10ml e-liquids.

What Does 50/50 Mean?

The ratio refers to the two base liquids. VG (vegetable glycerine) is thicker and produces more vapour, while PG (propylene glycol) is thinner and carries flavour and throat hit. A 50/50 blend balances the two, so it wicks easily in small coils and gives a satisfying, cigarette-style draw. For a full explanation, read our beginner's guide to VG and PG.

Which Devices Suit 50/50 E-Liquid?

50/50 e-liquids are designed for lower-powered, mouth-to-lung devices with coils rated around 1.0Ω and above. That includes most pod kits, starter kits and MTL tanks. High-powered sub ohm devices are better suited to higher-VG shortfill e-liquids, as thinner 50/50 liquids can leak or feel harsh at high wattage.

50/50 vs 70/30 E-Liquid

A 70/30 e-liquid has more VG, so it's thicker, smoother and produces more vapour. That suits sub ohm devices running at higher power. 50/50 is thinner and gives a stronger throat hit with lower-powered MTL devices. As a rule of thumb, choose 50/50 for pod kits and starter kits, and 70/30 or higher VG for sub ohm kits. 50/50 comes as freebase 10ml e-liquids and nic salts, and there are a small number of 50/50 shortfills designed for MTL vaping with a nic shot added.

50/50 Nic Salts and Popular Ranges

Most nic salt e-liquids are blended at 50/50, including popular ranges such as Elux Legend, Hayati Pro Max, Bar Juice 5000, ELFLIQ and R and M Tornado.

What is 50/50 vape juice?

50/50 vape juice is e-liquid made with equal parts vegetable glycerine (VG) and propylene glycol (PG). It's thinner than high-VG e-liquid, wicks quickly in small coils and gives a stronger throat hit.

Is 50/50 e-liquid good for pod kits?

Yes. Most pod kits and starter kits are designed for 50/50 e-liquid and nic salts, which suit their smaller, higher-resistance coils.

Can I use 50/50 e-liquid in a sub ohm tank?

It isn't recommended. Sub ohm coils run at higher power, and thinner 50/50 liquids can leak or produce a harsh hit. Higher-VG shortfills are better suited to sub ohm vaping.

Are nic salts 50/50?

Most are. The majority of nic salt e-liquids are blended at 50/50 VG/PG and sold in 10ml bottles, which is why they're grouped in this collection.

What's the difference between 50/50 and 70/30 vape juice?

50/50 has equal VG and PG, so it's thinner and gives more throat hit, which suits MTL pod kits and starter kits. 70/30 contains more VG, so it's thicker and produces more vapour, which suits sub ohm devices.

What wattage should I use for 50/50 vape juice?

50/50 e-liquids suit lower-powered MTL set-ups with coils rated around 1.0Ω and above, which usually run at modest wattages. Always use the wattage range printed on your coil or pod.
