TL;DR: Vapers are 1.3 times more likely than non-vapers to develop lung disease such as chronic bronchitis or emphysema. Smokers are 2.6 times more likely than non-smokers. People who both smoke and vape are well over 3 times more at risk, making them the highest risk group. Glantz and his...

Depends on the type of detector. If it's an optical detector (which has a laser that detects particles) then those are much more likely to be set off in my experience. If it's one of the older "ionization" detectors, they fare better and don't give as many false alarms when it comes to vaping...

Let me guess, MA is banning e-cigs but won't touch the much more deadly traditional cigarettes. Amirite? I would respect them much more if they banned it ALL, but they won't. Ask yourself why not and then you'll see it's not about health, but about the $$$$$$ in tax revenue.

Got a link where I can read more about "cobalt in the lungs?" EDIT: Nevermind, I googled and found it. Of course, it's another weed smoker with the lung problem. There's no telling what these idiots who buy canabis oil off the street are inhaling. If nicotine vaping were such a problem, we...

The DNA is going to be the gold standard. They invented TC vaping. Their boards are the most accurate and feature rich (and expensive). That said, there are other good boards out there. I used the Voopoo Drag for a long time and found its performance good. No, they are merely measuring the...

Just wanted to join the fun. I have been happily vaping away for the past couple of years and don't bother keeping up with the latest stuff (I rarely read this forum anymore). But my mod broke down so I went out and bought an Aegis Legend "Zeus edition." It comes with the "Zeus" subohm tank...

No, it doesn't. Your thread title doesn't jibe with the study. The CDC only sampled ambient air inside a vape shop and not air coming directly from an e-cig's mouthpiece during a vape. Numerous lab studies on vaping has shown that there is some aldehyde releases during vaping, even at...

Yep. About 40% of the cigarettes smoked in the U.S. are smoked by people with some form of mental illness. Not a fact that I think a lot of people are aware of.

So is anyone dead from Rayon yet? I have been vaping 4 years but never tried it. Thinking of giving it a shot. People are so divided on it: some cannot tell any difference from cotton while some swear by rayon.

I agree it is probably the safest (it's pure titanium which is not toxic), but it is tougher to work with than stainless. Also, be sure and only use tempered (cold-rolled or whatever the proper term is) because the annealed stuff will break during vaping. Happened to me a while back -- coil...

Vic is just salty because he helped design the Siren v2 which is a direct competitor to the Ares. If you'll notice, most of his criticism is that Phil "copied" other tanks like the Siren. Well no sheet, Vic. Everyone does and you don't ever seem to care about it in your reviews of other...

My brother told me that .........ion caused hair to grow on my palms. I believed him for a while, but after years of practice I have yet to see hair on my palms.

#5 was just me trying to reconcile the fact that cigarette smoke contains lots of diacetyl yet we never hear about B.O. cases in smokers. Moreover, I have read in some of the literature that the popcorn workers who smoked were LESS likely to contract B.O. than the non-smoking workers. Perhaps...

I am not one who buries my head in the sand and refuses to acknowledge any news that's potentially negative about vaping. On the other hand, this case smacks of the old lipoid pneumonia cases we heard about a few years ago. I read one of the case studies written by the lipoid pneumonia...

That sucks. The Swag is the nicest looking single battery "stealth" mod out there right now, imo. I was planning on picking one up, but I will pass if it has this limitation. I usually vape above 30 watts, but sometimes in TC I am right at that 25-30W range.

I'm not interested in new vaping battery tech unless it accomplishes one of two things: 1) Same power/capacity in a smaller form factor OR better power/capacity in the same form factor. 2) Safety increases. This will only happen with solid-state batteries which aren't here yet. One day we...

You just need to find some 8's or 9's who like to smoke, bro. Dekang? Dude, you're living in like 2013. Do you like to "lung hit" (like smoking a doobster) or do you prefer a cigarette draw? Doesn't bother me. I smoked 2 PAD for 20 years. I haven't touched a cig in years since I started...

If you want MTL, then you're probably not going to like any of the cloud chucking tanks that come in kits with any of these mods. The Pico is a fine single battery mod, but I'd recommend spending some cash on a decent MTL rebuildable atty like the Siren 2, Berserker, Ares, or a kayfun clone...

Sounds like it's not really SS wire. How do you know that it is?

I have a purifier with a CADR rating of 250 in a rather small room. It's a HEPA that can trap particles down to 0.3 micron. It does help with dust (and allergies), but not as much with vapor. Why? Because vapor deposits on surfaces before the purifier has time to trap it.
