20. Glad to see this thread.. I have questions for the more experienced

1 - Regarding sanitation/cleaning.. I've spent a fair amount of time trying to get a definitive answer/recommendation on how to approach, and as importantly how often. (This question was never approached at the vape shop)

2- How can I tell if the liquid I have is vg or pg (and what the hell does "P" stand for anyway?) I was under the impression that it all the liquids contain both vg/pg (polyglyceryl?) but I read in a forum that that isn't the case.. (really?) and that serious damage can be done to the equipment if using one or the other .. something about high sugar/fruit content?

3- And how do i know if my clearomizers is heating up too much?

I've seen advise regarding using Vodka or Rubbing Alcohol for cleaning.. but then I've run into all manner of cautionaries using terminology and equipment parts that I'm NOT knowledgeable about. So I haven't done any cleaning, and I'm very anxious regarding continued use.

I need straight simple to understand advice/guidance from anyone on this board that would know. I've gone to e-cig forum discussion sites and have spent the better part of this day trying to get to these answers to my questions, but the forum reads like tech sites read to luddites.

kind of frustrating.. any help on this would be soo appreciated!
