Does vaping indoors leave residue?

[ehko]

Hello, a friend tipped me off to e-cigs literally this Friday. I now have kit and juice on order and eagerly wait it's arrival! The one question I can't seem to find an answer to is wether walls and objects indoors can get a residue on them or humidity can cause damage if your vaping indoors? My basement office has no windows and I have a large collection of action figures (like 40 year old virgin... I know and no, I'm not). I would like to vape in my room but i'm worried about my collection because the value goes down if the condition drops. I hope someone with years of vaping in the same room can shed some light on this topic.

Thanks and I look forward to being part of this community!

Seems to leave a film on my car windows when I vape while driving.
I also worry about it affecting my PC fans and internals since it has an intake and I vape in close proximity to it.

I vape a lot at the computer and haven't noticed anything on my monitor. I have to use glasses and they get covered with a film though, and it's kind of hard to get off.

Yes it does...Windex works good on windows & soapy water on walls...you can get special wipes for computer screens

Probably less residue than smoking.

Like whiskey said you can get wipes, or you can use a micro fiber cloth to clean your glasses/monitor / windshield

Vaping does cause a residue but it's clear, unlike tar build up from smoking.

the inside of my windshield was getting a little hazy.....cleaned up real easy with windex and papertowel........papertowel was not as disgusting and yellow like from cig smoke.......

Definitely on my top ten list of things I like about vaping.

You will get a film on anything non-porous, but not on anything pourous!

Nic is sticky, but definitely not nearly as sticky as it is when combined with tar!

The water vapor that you exhale is molecularly different than smoke. Smoke has a tendency to linger and slowly dissipate, therefore sticking on walls or smelling far away from the source. Water vapor dissipates more rapidly and completely, and would have to have pretty much direct contact with a surface to effect it at all. Actually, I believe the vapor you blow out is completely wasted product and by holding in your hits you can reduce or eliminate it.




I was walking through Central Park, and I saw an old man smoking. Nothing makes a smoker happier than to see an old person smoking. This guy was ancient, bent over a walker, puffing away. I'm like, "Duuude, you're my hero! Guy your age smoking, man, it's great." He goes, "What? I'm 28."

Thanks for the quick feedback. I wasn't really planning on vaping in my room because of the slight possibility of residue on my figures. But the option was appealing.
