    Facts about dry burning SS 316L

    Organic "gunk" burns out at not really high temperatures (like 1600 F), it transforms to an inorganic residue, which is impossible to burn out at temperatures we use for our dry burn.

    PG Vapers ?

    I do not use flavors anymore (real food is better). I do not vape high VG juice anymore (it makes me cough). Now I vape 50/50, unflavored, and I hate throat hit. But I do not see any difference in throat hit whether I use high-VG juice, or 50/50. But switching to nicotine salts definitely...

    Sweeteners

    I want just to add that we cannot really use sugar alcohols in vaping. They are not sweet enough, sugar is sweeter than they are. So, big amounts of sugar alcohols are needed to sweeten juice properly. More additive in juice = more gunking.

    Facts about dry burning SS 316L

    This "work" by Dr.Farsalinos was discussed here before. He had written complete bullmanure. Too bad when a medical doctor try to discuss metallurgical things as if he knows what he is writing about. But he even does not know that there are no molecules in metals. Do not pay any attention to him...

    Facts about dry burning SS 316L

    At my work I used to clean platinum parts heating them to bright white color (meaning well above 2200 F) and they came out perfectly clean. Of course we cannot heat our wires that high, so we cannot clean them perfectly. We only can burn out organic stuff, transforming organic compounds to...

    But who told you it is bad for a body? And I think many (most?) of flavors are not digestible also. And, by the way, prized fiber is prized because it is not digestible.

    What made you start vaping?

    What made me to start vaping? Once upon a time (means about four years ago) I had promised my wife I will do everything I can so I will not die earlier than she. It's why I started to vape. But now she is complaining that I am coughing when I vape (I do cough when I vape, never coughed when I...
