Ok so i'm a relatively new vaper, been vaping on a cig a like for a year and decided to step it up to something better and less expensive. (i feel i have made a mistake)
I got an ego style battery and a clearomizer set up.
Did a huge amount of research and finally settled on 3 (small) US companies I thought seemed the most reputable and transparent in terms of their liquids in terms of safety of ingredients.
I'm in Australia so I had a lot of trouble trying to find a supplier that would ship to AU. This whittled it down to one company.
Ordered a whole bunch of 15ml e juices to try, all tobacco type flavors, cost with shipping was $$$$ !!!
Once I opened the box and started unpacking there was a smell of popcorn, caramel, very sweet.
After opening a couple to try and also to do they steep process - ie shake open then close. it got worse, my apartment (which is small) is strongly smelling of sweet caramel popcorn. A few days later its still hanging around and every time i open the cupboard when i'm storing them the smell is unleashed.
I think the vapor smells too, its overpowering.
I has made me very nervous about what is in these liquids. The company has stated that they do not use diaceytl or acetoin but I can't help but think the dreaded popcorn caramel smell is diketones. They say they are going to test their liquids this year and put up results but they are well aware of the issue and have never used flavors with diketones.
I definitely do not want to use them if they contain any diketones.
I am wondering if sweet, caramel popcorn smells / flavors can be possible without any diketones?
I didn't think it was possible.
Maybe I didn't do enough research?
