Some say Titanium is the worst wire for making coils for vaping because Titanium when heated releases TiO2 nano-particles which are very harmful to human body. Is it true? Do you think coil is large enough to cause any serious damage to the body? Do you think there is enough particles from coil...
OK, what I am confident about vaping. I am confident that vaping is less harmful than smoking tobacco cigarettes generally. I don’t know if 95% less harmful or just 20%. But I doubt that is 95% less harmful. I think that this estimate is lower on the scale. At the end of the day we are inhaling...
I stored my unflavoured 72mg/ml nicotine VG base in amber bottles into the freezer (-18 °C). How long is the shelf life? Does nicotine become more toxic when oxidized and over the long periods of time in the freezer? Does it become maybe even carcinogenic? Is this a safe way for storing nicotine...
I am just wondering if I am the only one who uses Titanium wire for making coils regulary? Titanium is my wire of the choice because I think, according to all informations I read about it, is possibly the safest wire out there (if you use it in TC mode and without dry burning before making...
An article in DailyVaper from THR activist Carl V. Phillips:
SCIENCE LESSON: ANCHORING BIAS AND THE MISTAKE OF COMPARING SMOKING TO VAPING
I didn't brake the link because it's not junk science but I don't agree with the writing.
Carl V. Phillips mentioned that "95% less harmful" claim is...
Why Don’t More Smokers Switch to Using E-Cigarettes: The Views of Confirmed Smokers
Comments from smokers:
"Worse than normal cigarettes. Normal smoking has been around for so long. You know where you are with normal traditional smoking. E-cigarettes have not been tried and tested enough to be...
Hello fellow vapers.
So, a few weeks ago I started using SS316L wire for TC coils. I read some posts on forums that is not recommended to dry burn SS coils because Chromium oxide layer can break and then Hexavalent Chromium can be released from metal. In the case of heating SS wire, when...
I am just curious.
I am a vaper for about 1 year and 7 months, before 14 years smoker, 1,5 pack/day. I vape cca 6ml a day, 50/50, unflavoured, 6 mg/ml nicotine.
Another cancer study:
Studies Raise Concerns for the Bladder Cancer Risk of E-Cigarette Smokers and Show Intensity of Traditional Smoking Increases Mortality Rate of Bladder Cancer Patients
(URL is broken, at the end you must fix .mlht into .html)
What do you think about this study?
As we know nicotine oxidize over the time and products of oxidation are formed in the nicotine base which leads to yellow color and peppery taste of nicotine.
My question is are those products of oxidation - free radicals?
We know that free radicals are harmful and causes cancer and other...
Hello everyone.
OK, I have one strange question. Is it dangerous to clean my used coils with denatured Ethanol (50% Ethanol, 50% distilled water)?
I usually throw my used coils in an Ethanol and leave them in there for a few days and then I clean them further with DW and toothbrush. Can...
Hello.
I have Cuboid 150W and eVic-VTC Mini and with both I have a problem with custom set TCR values. On both mods I have SS316L wire, 26ga, 0.55Ohm, TCR is set on 88, 94 and even 100 and there is almost no vapour on 220°C. I must set TCR up to 140 for satisfaying amount of vapor while with...
OK, I have some questions about oxidized nicotine.
1. How this process occurs from the chemistry point of view?
2. Can nicotine became more harmful with oxidation, even carcenogenic maybe?
3. How can I storage my nicotine for long time?
You can provide me with links if you want...
Thank you...
Hello.
I have a constant problem with throat clearing (but no phlegm of any kind) and it's really bothering me.
What are the reasons for that?
Is there any science explanation for that phenomenon?
Is it harmful?
How to reduce it?
What is your experience with it?
Thank you.
I am just curious.
How long are your draws or how long do you hold fire button on your fire button? What is your style of vaping (MTL, D2L, coil resistance, wire material,...)?
Hello.
This is my coil after 1 and a half day (1 and a half tank on Kayfun 5) of vaping:
And a wick:
Why is it burned so fast? I vape at max 10 Watts, coil is 1,25 Ohm Kanthal, 28GA so too high temperature or to high watts are not the case, my coils are heating up pretty slow. I am using...
Hello fellow vapers.
Not long ago ZVS had a honest discussion via email with Dr. Farsalinos and we talked about daily consumption of e-liquids, MTL vs. D2L vaping, health risks and vape industry. I will post whole discussion here because I think is important for every vaper to read Dr. F's...
Hello fellow vapers.
I have a huge problems with wicking Taifun GT II. I have 1.6 Ohm Kanthal coil in atomizer and I can't wick this ....... properly. I like to vape with low Wattage (6 - 12W) and I can't get proper vapor production and I get very harsh taste with 6mg/ml unflavoured e-liquid. I...
Interesting article:
What do scientists think? – Konstantinos Farsalinos at Vapexpo 2016, Paris
I am a bit worried about this graph:
So if I vape 5ml/day M2L unflavoured e-liquid @ 10W (1.7 Ohm) is this equal to smoking almost a half a pack/day tobacco cigarettes?
And I am worried about...
