"First of all, I should say that the reactions from the vaping community are a bit exaggerated. I never said that by dry-burning the coil you are
making vaping more harmful than smoking."
I'd be interested in who actually said that. If it was said by a lot people then yeah - exaggerated. By one person... meh.... you'll get that. lol.
"Vapers should realize that metals used in coils have not been made to be in continuous direct contact with liquid, to evaporate liquid on their surface and to have the consumer inhale the vapor directly from the coil."
While this is true with the context added, there are heating elements that are used in other appliances and heaters that may radiate some metal associated with the coils - hair dryers, toasters, stoves, oven - where other stuff and liquids could come in contact forming vapor/steam, etc. - which while not as direct, could be 'inhaled' by individuals. It's part of living life.
"Although we explained in our
risk-assessment analysis that the levels found were not of significant health concern, this does not mean that we should accept unnecessary exposure."
Not sure what 'unnecessary exposure' would be. How can something that is not a significant health concern be 'unnecessarily exposed'? It would seem to me that doing a dry burn on a new coil to find 'hot spots' is necessary for
not overheating - that's what 'hot spots' would be. There's no 'exposure' other than viewing to detect hot spots - no inhaling involved.
"If you want to remove residues from the manufacturing process of the wires, you can use alcohols and water to clean the wire before preparing the coil."
I tend to agree -
certain alcohols - ethyl not isopropyl unless rinsed thoroughly and can be used to clean used coils as well - better, imo, than dry burn, but only that one can kill a coil or short out a batt by doing it wrongly.
