    Acrolein production, etc - mitigated with TC?

    My head's a spinning with all the reading I've done on vaping in the two weeks since I switched from analogs. My local B&M started me with a sub-ohm setup before I knew enough to ask for something simpler. Upside: No smokes since then. Downside: so much information to absorb and not a whole...

    If you are considering buying a 180w "Box God" **PLEASE READ THIS**

    Not only is this thing a joke but its actually really dangerous. Lets just say you have just built a 0.2 ohm coil (lowest res it can go) and you start vaping it at 180W. Assuming you are using pure VG juice, PG isnt viable to use at high wattage. The VG will react to the insane amount of heat...

    Glycerine vapor and acrolein - the issues

    Many people ask if it is possible to inhale acrolein from decomposed glycerine in e-cigarette vapour. An opinion on this is below (and note that it is an opinion).

    PG and VG Questions

    So guys, when I started vaping a month ago I read that PG breaks into Formaldehyd (cancerous) above 120 degrees Celsius, so I migrated to 100% VG. Two days ago I bumped into another thread here stating VG breaks into Acrolein (also highly cancerous) above 280 degrees Celsius. Now, some people...

    pg - vg - peg

    . . PG - VG - PEG There are three possible base carrier liquids in use for e-liquid (the refill liquid used in electronic cigarettes): PG, VG, and PEG. PG is the most common, usually with a proportion of VG as that produces more vapor. PEG is more common in pre-filled cartomizers. These basic...

    VG and dripping

    I've been lurking for a little while, but just signed up. I can't post this to Health & Safety where it belongs because I don't have permission. So maybe a mod can move it there. I have some concerns that I want to share about the safety of glycerin (VG) based e-liquids when used with the...

    Decomposition of VG to acrolein

    Some time ago I had the idea of testing the possibility of the decomposition of VG to acrolein by vaping a juice that was only VG and distilled water. The build up of a deposit in this scenario does not prove acrolein is produced, but it strongly suggests it might be. Similarly, the absence of a...
