    Is pg corrosive to lung tissue?

    PG has been studied since the 40's. Besides, it has been used in formulations to treat lung diseases, when it is the best solvent for the specific medicine that's being used. I believe that's were Hon Lik got the idea of using it in the first place. As a pharmacint, it's only logical that hw...

    Vaping used to be more social

    I started vaping in the beginning of 2009, and I miss the days when I was the lone vaper in town. Lots of puzzled looks and questions. Meeting fine people at the pub. People who were actually interested in knowing more about the device, instead of spreading the junk-science fuelled propaganda...

    First box mod, battery question.

    I've read somewhere that in a dual battery mech mod, a safe limit would be about 150% the amperage of a single battery.

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    No, he is not. He has been doing a great job at doing PROPER science over e-cigarettes. Much different from the junk-science you will find in my previous posts, which then leads to the negative propaganda people were talking earlier. Unlike tobacco, where you simply cannot get rid of the...

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    Commom sense tells me you missed the point completely. In a nutshell: there are "unknown risks" about many other things we do, or use, in our daily lives, and we couldn't care less about those. Because there is a "huge monied interest in ensuring you don't think about that one" [sic]. And while...

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    OK, I'll just leave this here and then be on my merry way. :) Nicotine Propaganda Quotes: "Use of the term 'addictive' is deliberately emotive and used for the purpose of inflaming the debate when applied to a material for which harm is impossible to measure reliably; it is incorrect because...

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    Well, if you are going to consider an "act" as an "addiction", then I guess almost *anything* we regularly could be considered and addiction as well. And when everything is an addiction, then nothing is, really... it's all simple "normal stuff" people do.

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    My own experience contradicts this. I have suddenly cut from 18mg to 9mg. Then to 6mg. I'm now at 3mg. Did I miss it? Did I have cravings? No. What I craved was the TH provided by nic. With better devices, TH was too harsh, so I simply cut my juice with non-nic. And I did not miss anything at...

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    Let's re-run you previous post, and see what you *actually* wrote, shall we? "Cmon now. If you vape nicotine EVERY DAY you're a nicotine addict. Most addicts in the world are in denial. And the whole ''HOBBY BULL....'' makes me laugh. So loud btw! Vaping is a necessity for most. I think Vaping...

    Why is "tootle puffing" a bad thing.. or is it?

    *The* most important thing about vaping, what *really* matters? Keeping you off cigarettes. That's what counts. :) I have been on E-Gos for more than four years. And I was happy with it. Then, came the menace of the new European TPD. So, I started playing with durable mechs and...

    Nicotine less addictive via vaping then smoking?

    I could easily be spending more than 160 Eur/month on cigarettes. I'm spending around 40 Eur/month with vaping. You seem to imply that people who spend more on vaping than with cigarettes, do so because they *need* to spend that much to keep their "vaping cravings", and therefore, vaping is a...

    New study: vaping no more toxic than breathing air

    Many favourable studies have already been done without any sponsorship from the "e-cigarette industry", whatever that means. In fact, those studies were part of what convinced me to start vaping in the first place - and there was not a "big, powerful e-cig industry" in the beginning of 2009...

    New study: vaping no more toxic than breathing air

    What about other "studies", clearly biased and/or poorly designed *on purpose* to put ecigs under a bad light - promoted by e-cig opponents (For example, the 2009 FDA's "nitrosamines study")? Do they not bother you also? What about studies that are *favourable* to vaping overall, but what's...

    Indoor vaping

    And yet, *maybe* there's a logical reason why the owner allows vaping in *his* premises. Maybe that's because more people enjoy being there and being able to vape away(*), than there are people who feel "disgusted" by it. If somewhere in the future, that owner decides that allowing vaping is...

    Indoor vaping

    If he smoked, there's not even the possibility of "natural causes" from the ANTZ perspective. 91 is *still* a premature death, because *you* cannot prove to them that he would not have lived to be 101 if he was not a smoker. :facepalm:
