These are the same questions I would like to see answered. And if Janty cartridges and liquid are the same as Ruyan products is there any ongoing quality control testing done to ensure future purity?
My guess is this is where the styrene is coming from. This report shows very low levels of styrene, but what would the levels be if the cartridge floss was melting/burning?

Sorry, but this sounds like more anti-smoking propaganda. I have yet to find the study they quoted but I notice they explicitly mention nicotine and not smoking. How was the nicotine administered and what are the other parameters of this study?
The reason I'm calling it propaganda is...
Focusing on nicotine only is reductionistic "science" at its best/worst. Tobacco contains harmala alkaloids that work synergystically with and balance nicotine and other constituents.
Any native shaman worth his salt can tell you more about tobacco than some Ph.D who is trying to analyze...
I find this paragraph from the article interesting. There are no specific references to the statement that e-cigarettes have been found less harmful than regular cigarettes after "a series of toxicological tests". What toxicological tests were done and where can these test results be found? I...
If your numbers are correct it would mean the atomizer would have to consistently reach about 540 degrees Farenheit or above. Just from personal experience I doubt a properly working atomizer is getting this hot but I could be wrong. In my opinion it is fruitless to jump to conclusions based...
It depends on the dose, the substance which is burning and the health of the individual. The human body and lungs have adapted over tens of thousands of years to adapt to environmental smoke. I don't think it's good to inhale the combustion byproducts of the internal combustion engine either...
I think this sort of study is ridiculous. He footnotes this preposterous statement but the actual source is not given in the report. Does anyone have a link to the actual source of this statement?
There are other studies (such as a well known Danish study) which show that men smoking 6...
Overall nicely written addendum. However, the last paragraph makes some statements that are a bit strong considering the current status of e-smoking. I don't think that we can say definitively that e-smoking will not cause any incidence of lung cancer with 100% certainty because we simply...
It depends on how the propylene glycol acts as compared to conventional chemical antibiotics. If its action is physical like colloidal silver then there would be no way for bacteria and viruses to build a resistance to the effect. I'll do some research on this and see if I can find an answer...
That is why FTC involvement at some point is probably inevitable. Retailers really ought to stop making unsupportable and erroneous claims. For example, how many times have I seen a site say that what is exhaled is "harmless water vapor".
What concerns me even more is that we as e-cig...
I think this answer is mostly correct but I will add my two cents. For the record this is not a pro-smoking rant on an e-cig site. I am not encouraging tobacco consumption. I am offering a different strategy for those who are still consuming tobacco and can't make the complete switch to...
I don't think it's ironic. I think we as e-liquid consumers have a right to know what we're inhaling and what the quality (i.e., pharmaceutical grade or not) of any e-liquid is.
As an individual who injected his own cigarettes I was very selective about the type of tobacco I smoked and very...
$1.80 a day is not bad but I can inject my own for even less than that. I can make cigarettes cosmetically indistinguishable from commercially manufactured cigarettes for a buck to a buck and a half a pack. I can inject a pack in about five to ten minutes with what I think is better tasting...
Thanks for the reply, Ruyan. Even "censored" copies to the mods would be helpful. From everything I've seen Janty is the top company in this game and really listens to their customers.
Every board I've ever been on seems to go through periods of tension and bickering. It seems to come in unpredictable waves. Hey, at least this board doesn't seem to get the total trolls that seem to frequent so many other boards. Knock on wood. ;)
Very nice video!
At 2:15 the video states: "Our cartridges have been tested and approved by European laboratories." What specific cartridge tests have been done and do you have these tests available for viewing on the internet?
I don't know, TB. Some days I can make a logical argument like you have just done and some days my outlook is not so rosy. The lists of ingredients I've seen are not that reassuring and all of the liquid (including the carts) is apparently made in China which also doesn't reassure me that it...
That's good to know, Nazareth. I've only used high proof Everclear in the hopes that it will evaporate more quickly. You (and many others on this board) should get a gold star for the willingness to fiddle with these things and share the information with everybody else. Thanks!
I don't...
