damn that's a thought, 2nd hand air
the oxygen as it is will be 1st hand as so to speak as most oxygen breathed in [previously would have been converted to carbon dioxide
but the rest of it especially the nitrogen will be used, huh
then what about the methane ... jeeze that could be prehistoric flatulence
I'm only breathing vapour from now on
Especially after reading this from the Cambridge University
I was just doing some calculations. It takes about 2,000 years for all of the plants in the world to work their way through all the oxygen in the atmosphere. So, some of the molecular oxygen you're breathing in won't have been breathed in before. But because the Earth is about 3.8 billion years old, you would have thought that pretty much all of it will have gone through plants and creatures in the past.
But then again, I wouldnt say for definite that all of the atoms, all the molecules that you breath in have been breathed before, because there are 6 with 23 zeros (6 x 1023), or maybe as low as maybe 3 with 23 zeros (3 x 1023), molecules of gas in every lung full of air, and some of those might well have just been sitting there since the beginning of the Earth.
Also, some atoms have been coming out of volcanoes or degassing out of the centre of the Earth, and some have been raining in from space. So, in a normal breath, a few atoms won't have been breathed before, but I think most of the air will, wherever you are
I'm never going to breath again!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm 24 and don't have much interest in cloud chasing "competitions" either. I care more about flavor, but it often times does necessitate a big cloud to do that. I build my Reo at .37 ohms almost religiously. Every build I do almost always winds up at .37. That comes out to around 40 watts, and dang its good. I use a BF Trident V2 (modded) and couldn't be happier.
Sure, I have a Tobh, a stillare and caterpillar RDA's, as well as a Nemesis, Stingray and Templar mechanical clones. In addition to that I have a Cana DNA30, and an E-LVT. I have a Kayfun, a Nautilus and a Silo (improved nautlius). Any guesses which gets used the most?
#1. My Reo+Trident
#2. My E-LVT+Silo.
#3. My E-LVT+Kayfun
I don't like using my mechanicals because I don't like to drip. I also have trouble building my Kayfun as is, and certainly would have a tough time building it for a mech. I don't like using my Cana because the button is uncomfortable.
The Reo at .37 ohms throws pretty big clouds. Not quite the competition level, but not far from it. I have a .37 ohm build with 12 mg/nicotine and it does great.
The Silo does great with clouds too, especially with those new BVC coils. Nowhere near the competitive level, but flavor is great, and its enough vapor to make me happy. I don't blow clouds for the sake of blowing clouds. I about went off on some kid and a vapor shop running a .07 build with a mechanical that had NO VENTING. Sure he was using a VTC5, but that's something like 250 watts and 60 amps. 60 amps is the peak PULSE rating of those batteries.
At that point, can you even trust that your ohm reader is accurate enough? A fluctuation of +/- .05 ohms could mean the difference between blowing clouds and blowing your face off. I'll pass

Lol im a young person only 21 and I dont see the point in it. I mean if its your thing cool im not going to hate.
Wasn't trying to ruffle any feathers or anything with this, it was all in good fun and wan't trying to say that I disapproved of any of the people but rather that I just felt out of place.
Was good to see it and I'm sure I'll try another sometime, this one really was just a room full of young guys playing the "mine's bigger than your's" game which got old fast.

So, I've never been to one of these things. Do I understand, that you're saying that you are judged on your exhale? If so, I'd think that non-ex-smokers would have a big advantage!!!
In that case I m guessing that the enema tube/vacuum cleaner method would be banned
but that would still leave " bricking " as a viable option
There are competitions around here all the time from my understanding (I am a social media non-partaker) that I hear about. I do not partake. I don't think its all about age though (as other posters in here have brought up); as the other night I was at my go-to B&M and some guy was in there gloating about his 26650 mod with some .0XX whatever build in it and he had to of been ~45 years old!
I'll stick to my non-competitive minimal cloud blowing (Hana + KFL @ .7ohms with 6 mg/ml juice) and my various other midsize cloud blowing ( Stingrays/KSS/etc with various attys ranging from .2-.6ohms with 3 mg/ml juice). I am in it for the nicotine still, thus why it is in my juice. I don't need huge clouds to be happy though they are enjoyable to a degree at certain times of the day. My mainstay device is the Hana setup I mentioned as it is reliable and gets me thru the day. It is far from a big cloud producer!

I thought there would be groupies; fat chicks in leggings, Monster energy drinks in hand- the kind you see at the Walmart on the wrong side of town that you don't like going to at night...
When I was 28 (25 yrs ago!
), I attended a small business "college," and I was so nervous, first classroom environment I'd been in since I'd graduated HS ten years before. I needn't have worried; there were people who didn't have the first idea what a common denominator WAS, nevermind how to get one, or what to do with it when (IF!) they got it. I managed a 4.0 GPA while there, but it really didn't seem like that big a deal, considering that the hardest thing they taught was probably either "depreciation" or "loan amortization," in Bus Math 3.Andria
Don't regret starting college later in life. Time goes by at the same rate whether you do things you want to do with your life or not. You may even find the maturity is helpful. I can't tell you how many of my older students said to me, " Why does this seem easier now? I had such a hard time with this when I was younger!". The brain doesn't stop maturing until a person is about 25. So maybe at 16 or 18 you weren't ready yet to learn it and now you are. And of course when you're older you become more patient and able to focus.
Off topic, but wanted to encourage people

Some vape for themselves and some for EVERYONE else to see. Thats the difference between chasing flavor and clouds.
At a certain point the excess heat just kills the flavor.
Never tried 0.15 never will.

My wife was 50 when she finished collage. So it's never to late, and it can be done.
And I'd sure like to atomize my mortgage!
I'm sure that's true... but I'm 53 already, look older, and I know, with the current job market, I don't have a hope in hell of getting any kind of decent job, if/when I emerged with a degree at 57-58 yrs old. So I figure why bother. I missed that train.

Not so bad at all, I'm happy blowing moderately huge clouds in the comfort of my own home
