    Do you vape juice from China, or only from USA?

    I used to vape some chinese liquids but I had a few "off" tastes on few of them, thought better of it, then decided to go US/UK only. I used to use Johnson Creek a lot but the flavors are too heavy and leave my chest feeling tight. I started to use unflavored/lightly flavored juice from...

    Those look decidedly "steampunk." Cool, but it would be disconcerting for me to be vaping from the barrel of a gun! :ohmy:

    60 Minutes with B&W whistleblower Wigand(glycerol,heat, cancer mentioned)

    I believe that acrolein is not carcinogenic but is toxic and highly irritating. If you run a high-voltage device with a low-resistance atomizer nearly dry for many seconds, you can get it to burn VG into acrolein. The stuff is very acrid smelling and will really irritate the throat/nose if...

    This was my collection a couple years ago... Nearly all of these have been sold, given away, or otherwise disposed of. All I use now is the ThermoVape T1 with with e-liquid adapter and AVA atomizer.

    AVA *****MADE IN THE USA****** $49,95 Atomizers

    Yeah, make sure you use the leaded solder, that's the healthiest... (being sarcastic here). AVA has no solder which is a nice attribute as far as I'm concerned. I'm past the break-in on my atty and it's vaping like crazy. It does bubble and pop some, but I don't care too much. If I drip...

    Interesting, panic and PG?

    Oh! I'm very interested in hearing about how the WTA does for you! I've been curious about WTA but haven't tried any myself.

    AVA *****MADE IN THE USA****** $49,95 Atomizers

    Ok. Yeah. I've been using this AVA for about a week now. It's great! This thing isn't even getting bogged down with Johnson Creek Red Oak - Tennessee Cured (that's a thick juice that often swamps my other 510s). As emonty states, I'm finding the flavor to be incomparable to any other atty I've...

    anyone else have shortness of breath?

    People rarely say how much they have been vaping when reporting these kinds of issues. I really wish someone would say something like: I have X problem and I vape a full cart every two hours. Or something to that effect. In any case, it would be easier to compare notes. Personally I haven't...

    Issues with watering mouth

    I usually get a dry mouth. I've never had excess watering and only occasionally a sore throat. I stick to only two brands of juice (both US made, both VG).

    Ashma/Nebulizers And E-Cigs

    Daring. I don't think I would ever try that. Heat can fundamentally change the chemistry of some molecules. I don't know what effect it could have on albuterol though. The suspension fluid in your inhaler probably has some PG in it as well, but there is no heat acting as the vaporization...

    Vaping and pets.

    It's considerably less risky than smoking around them. I also believe that popular opinion suggests there is not really any active nicotine in exhaled vapor and that the vapor itself is pretty inert. Your pets might not like the flavoring smell but I'd bet that it isn't harmful to them at all...

    Anyone have insomnia from vaping

    Nicotine has a very strong stimulant effect that can totally disrupt your sleep. Ratchet down the nicotine and you'll probably sleep better. Effects of nicotine on sleep during consumptio... [Sleep Med Rev. 2009] - PubMed - NCBI

    Interesting, panic and PG?

    As a doctor once told me: "If you hear hooves in New York City, it's probably not a zebra." You state have a panic disorder. You probably have problems with anxiety. I'd guess vaping gives you anxiety because you're worried about the health effects, ingredients, unknown potentials, etc...

    why is this forum so great

    ECF is great. That's why I threw some $$ their way. Love to keep a good thing going!
