Okay, I'm still narrowing down the criteria but at least I seem to be heading back to the zero state.
For 3 months I was doing fine with my E618 pipe (1.5 ohm, unknown watts) vaping around 1ml/day 18mg 50/50 increasingly flavored juice. (Latest version is around 16% flavor in PG so adjust accordingly). Then I got an authentic Kangertech mini, vaped the same juice at 20W with the built in 0.5 ohm coil and itched like crazy that night. Getting through maybe 2-2.5ml/day. The next day, I switched to Immortal Fog's Beast (70/30 - the real version of what I had been vaping) at 35W and the itch was just as bad, if not worse. Thinking it might be a PG allergy, I drained the tank and switched to unflavored 100% VG (plus slight residue and 5% vodka I found in the fridge to thin it down) for a couple of days. Broke out in a rash across arms, torso and neck - no improvement. Finally, I switched back to the 618 with the original juice and it seems to be calming down.
Eczema is not a new problem to me and this is a bad time of year but this kind of instant flare up is always associated with some kind of exposure and, as illogical as it seems, so far the only connection seems to be the subox mini or at least the switch from the 618.
Anyone come across this before? Any ideas as to how to narrow it down once I get through?
