    exploration of new Idea

    I am thinking of using a regular kr808d1 carto with reduced size wick(For pyruvic acid) and another filler soaked in 100 mg/ml nic towards the mouthpiece end. Scratch that.Kr808d battery will be too big.One Ml of Pyruvic acid should give about a thousand 35ml puffs to simulate cigarette smoking.

    exploration of new Idea

    You can use 100 mg/ml nicbase in place of tobacco.Also the tobacco consumption will be very less compared to smoking. I am not sure :tongue:, if the citric acid in your commercial juice makes you lactate this pyruvic could do the same. It could be as much fun as smoking a cigarette minus...

    exploration of new Idea

    As per my understanding a regular PV(Manual one) can be modified.An absorbent material(PTFE as per the document) loaded with pyruvic acid has to be in touch with heating coil and the pyruvic acid vapor(With Air) passes through a cylindrical mesh (that holds tobacco) creating a cloud of nicotine...

    Korean government attacks e-cigarettes

    I misread the wikipedia article about acsh.As Bill says ACSH didnt retract their opposition to restrict phalates. They softened their stand(As per article written by Kramer). ACSH, it appears is also adamant in their opposition to ban/restrict BPA(Bisphenol).Seems they really look for...
