Dry burn question?

[Runamok3x]

We all know of the junk science studies where they misused devices and overheated them to get them to give off some bad stuff.
wouldnt dry burning coils also create these same conditions by overheating the coil and burning off the remaining gunk and juice.
i always dry burn outside and avoid the burn off.
thoughts?

You don't directly breathe the gunk in your lungs.

You can also dry burn inside, provided you have adequate ventilation.

Dry burning is the same as vaping.. You just are doing it in the absence of juice or a wick.. Same amounts of power are used. Just no juice or airflow to cool things.

It not the coil you have to worry about overheating.... It's the battery. An overheated coil melts and snaps.. An overheated battery burns.

I don't know how you dry burn your coils, but when i do mine I have already washed the RTA, removed the old wick and then dry burn just the coil. So, I really don't think there is a significant risk of producing formaldehyde from the burned on crud left on the coil. I could be wrong though.

Well, when I spill something on my electric stove top burners, I guess you could say I dry burn them. Then there's the grate on the grill that gets "gunked" up. Burn that mess off as well.

It's how the wifes "self-cleaning" oven works. You lock the door it runs for several hours at 700+ degrees. She brushes out the ashes, oven is clean as new. Even how I clean the grill on the BBQ, get Grill HOT and brush it off.

Wife always asks "what's burning?" when I'm rewicking in the kitchen [emoji3]
