How is it that so many of us on this forum and other forums have been vaping nicotine juice for years, most of us probably 5+ years, and have never had lung illness cause by our habit, yet these people supposedly got lipoid pneumonia from nicotine vaping within a very short time after starting vaping?

Were these people actually vaping nicotine vape bought at a store? Or did they lie because they didn't want mom and dad to know they were buying THC carts from some shady dude they met last week?

Or maybe these people actually caught the coof and the healthcare workers were blaming it on vaping?

Also, why are the comments turned off? Because I wanted to ask them so badly why all of a sudden this happened when we, as a whole, have been vaping since 2007? Are we perhaps immune to the ill effects of vaping because we are members of ECF? :lol:

Have any trustworthy members ever posted here warning others of having gotten a serious lung illness, or even came close to dying, after years of vaping? (honest question)

When smoking I came down with bronchitis two times each year severe enough for me to get to a Doc and take some antibiotic. Since vaping for eight years the number of bronchitis episodes has been zero. I still have some residual smoker's lung damage from which I will never recover, reduced forced expiatory flow rate and a some what reduced O2 saturation (96%).
I am so happy that our beloved all caring government will force some, but not I, back into using a real tobacco product.

No.
Yes. (Well, probably.)

This is me. Since I started vaping in 2013 (after a very bad case of bronchitis) I have not had it again.

I too still have some residual smoker's lung damage and asthma that the doc blames on my smoking for 15 plus years, but both have been reduced over the years and as an added bonus, I can taste food and don't smell like an ashtray.

I have nic to last me until I am in my 90s and enough devices to last twice that, I for one will never go back to smoking.

I am with you 100%, I like all of the 'side effects' of vaping over those of cigarettes. I won't be going back, either.

    Good question. And not that I know of. No one here has posted about a severe illness they got from vaping. People have posted that they have did an allergic reaction to PG which was solved by all VG.

    So, why are those people having problems and the rest of us are cruising along? My guess is they're lying about what they put in their tanks. I think the definition of "limpid pneumonia" tells you exactly what you have to know.

    Lipid pneumonia is defined as: Lipoid pneumonia, or lipid pneumonia, is a rare disease that occurs when oil or fat enters the lungs. Sounds like what happened in a year or two ago.

    Dank Vapes or THC additives that contained Vitamin E acetate (which is oil) are the culprits.

    I had the same thought last year, when "ground glass" lung images of WuFlu patients were coming out of China and looked very much like the "EVALI" ones we saw during the second half of 2019. Since then we've learned that that WuFlu was around (although not wide-spread) at least as early as the fall of 2019....

    Nowadays, any type of pneumonia would be diagnosed as covid... That is, unless a vaping connection can be made. :facepalm:

    Motorcycle accidents deaths are diagnosed as covid. unless a vaping connection is established.
    Whatever conclusion they want, they will find a way.
    I find nothing from our govt is based in fact or reality. The anti vaping regs is only one, small example. I honestly feel like I live in Phonyland these days. Our leaders are off their rockers. Worse yet, so is a large and growing chunk of my fellow citizens.

    Been wondering about that myself. I know some chargers can provide more information about the state of the battery, including remaining capacity. Those chargers tend to be rather expensive. You can also check the voltage and internal resistance with a MM.

    I have purchased a number of 4 bay chargers over the years. The Miboxer C4 does it all for me. My other chargers live in a drawer and the Miboxer C4 stays on a counter in the kitchen.

    It's becoming frightening.
