Default Lacking Vapor - Need Help

I just began using OMG brand starter kit ($60). I purchased two, the other for my son.
Directions were followed, full charge, etc. We are both experiencing a lack of vapor after first couple of puffs. Any insight? Totally new to e-cigs.

Looks like a 306 type with exposed element.Get some e-liquid from ElectroNicStix and dripp a drop or two onto the mesh looking part.Then put the cart back on but you don't need to push it all the way on and puff away.You should six to ten good puffs before needing to drip again.I like the CML flavor real well kind of tobbacoey here is a link CML. You ight look at the starter kits there for when yours starts crapping out for good.You can also refill your carts with the liquid.As you have found a cart does not equal two packs of ciggerettes.

A starter kit is probably not going to give you massive amounts of vapor anyway. The type of juice you use will also provide more or less vapor. Try at least a 70/30 blend of PG/VG mix-the more VG the more vapor. If you are using a 306 atty-that should provide plenty of heat for desired vapor.

One thing to keep in mind is that e-cigs are not like regular cigarettes.
You have to take long drags, typically 2 or 3 seconds.

Like jcamacho said, If your e-liquid is 100% PG mix, then vapor will dissipate quickly and not be as noticeable after inhaling. Try taking a long 3 second draw then exhale the vapor without inhaling it first.

I've got 20 bottles that must be all PG due to the lack of vapor. I want vapor and the throat hit. Can I buy bottles of straight VG to add ? How much should I add ? Will this dilute the flavor ? Is this my best solution ?

I'm new here. I don't know how to clarify my questions except to list it as a reply. I've been vaping for 5 months with no problems. I use 510 style cartomizers. Recently purchased liquid from a new supplier. That's when my lack of vapor started. All PG liquid? Think I need to add VG to what I've got. Not sure how or how much.

Really... I was going to add vg juice 50-50 by volume. I guess that would've been a mistake. I take it that a few drops won't affect flavor. What exactly do I need to get?
