    E-Cigarettes Pose No Risk of Heart Disease, Study Finds

    I've posted it on all tobacco/smoke free FB groups I 'like' - about the same number as Elaine above. This included the ALA/AHA of Utah and our state/county health departments. I've also emailed the top hospitals, cancer institute and other health agencies along with the government. Been a...

    Utah Vapers - Snus over smoking

    That's pretty much how Utah is. Full of religious zealots who believe nannying is the way to salvation. I've really had to pull back from further comments so I didn't get sucked into a comment war and get myself banned from future letters.

    Utah Vapers - Snus over smoking

    Sharing the latest work in Utah to try and get the truth out on THR. The letter is less about ecigs and more about alternatives (although the paper did edit the heck out of it - see my website below for the original). As you will see in the comments, Utah is a tough market. ALEC has been high...

    Travelling with eCigs

    I just got back from there last month. They are banned for sales purposes but not for personal use. That said, it IS Mexico and if you get the red light they can be ignorant and take anything they want ultimately. However, I brought my silver bullet, lava tube and tekk mod along with 120ml of...

    Second hand nicotine from exhaled vapor?

    There is a thing called common courtesy that some people, vapers included tend to forget. Just because it's not harmful doesn't mean you do it. I don't stand next to friends, family or coworkers and exhale in their face vaping or not. It's just plain rude IMHO.

    Second hand nicotine from exhaled vapor?

    Previous link had to be broken as an FYI. The study is being presented to a medical congress in Europe and the study cannot be published and be presented. I can tell you however that the levels of nicotine in exhaled vapor was almost nil and at levels barely measurable by the testing...

    vaping and climate?

    Salt Lake City here too - I actually have quite good vapor output whether I'm indoors or out. Most of the difference I notice has to do with the VG/PG ratio combined with voltage and draw time. I have noticed humidity does play a big role in overall vapor performance however. When I was in...

    New study results

    I can tell you the final doctoral report should contain all the information mentioned. For now however, the smokers smoked 19 or 20 tobacco cigarettes of varied brands. The vapers vaped approximately 1.5ml of juice also of varying 'brands' and strengths. The detailed information again should...

    New study results

    Guys one thing I want to make sure is clear, the Utah Vapers did not fund this. This was funded entirely by Flavourart. We simply consulted with them on the design of the study. Note that while the study report does not have information about nic levels, juice concentrations, etc, I have...

    New study results

    Thanks for posting this. I've been so busy I haven't had time to hit ECF with it. I do agree with TJ that this is a start and will not necessarily solve any of the bans. There will also be an official doctoral report and this will be peer review and published globally. But I encourage...

    A must-see video

    I would encourage everyone to send the link to all your senators where we are having issues with bans. Let's get this as viral as we can to help the cause.

    A must-see video

    It was an honor to be a part of this video and for the fight in Utah to be brought to the forefront. Just remember everyone, we are ALL vapers and this is just one step in the fight against the bans. While this may not win any battle, it plants the seeds that we must all continue to nurture.

    Sweet cake icing or Butte rcream Icing? Even just a great sugar cookie type??

    Keep in mind you need to steer clear of anything containing butter flavor due to the ingredients necessary to give it the flavor. Not recommended for vaping but is great for general cooking flavor.

    Travel and Vaping Riveria Maya & PVs

    I've seen where Mexico has banned the importation and sale of electronic cigarettes and associated supplies. I'll be down at the Barcelo Maya resorts for 10 days in June and of course need to take a PV with me. Can anyone who has been there recently share their experiences? I'll need to take...

    Box Elder- 40 New Water Soluble Flavors

    Their sister company is Gourmet Vapor and I'm of a high level of certainty that they get their flavorings from the same supplier that GV buys from. I do agree though based on description that it's Loranns. I personally am not connected to either company (other than by geographical location)...

    Which side of the fence are you on and why?

    Totally open about vaping. I do get an occasional odd look when I take a big toot off my Tekk but have had no issues. I even use it in my large office but simply hold it in a bit longer to avoid big clouds of vapor rising from my desk. My boss is totally cool about it so when we go into...
