Is it possible to have an allergy to poly fill carto's? I notice I get the sweats when using my SmokTech 510 LR DC MEga's as opposed to my Phoenix Bottom Coil Clearo. I just realized this is not occurring with Clearo, and it's the only thing that I could imagine would be causing these sweats. I always just thought it was the nicotine itself.

Has anyone else had this problem with sweats when vape'ing?

Hi. It is definitely possible to be allergic to polyester. I've run across info about dermatitis from polyester, but I've no clue what the implications of inhaling the chemicals that leach into the juice from it are for someone allergic to them.

While I'm not necessarily allergic to it, I do find that regular cartomizers irritate my airways because of said chemicals. I don't like the taste of it, either. I've got like 5 boxes of cartos that will probably sit for a very long time, as I use CE2-style cartos and tanks exclusively, now. Some regular cartos can make pretty good dripping devices if you can coax the filler out.

Sweating can be caused by many things, so that's a bit tough. I'd imagine it could be from that, though. I've gotten them from excessive nicotine twice.
