e-cigs more harmful than good?

[b00gym4n]

I've been vaping on my Joye 510 for about 4 weeks now. So far everything's been good, I lost one at a bar and the other one broke within days. What ever you do, do not mess with the atomizer unless you are an expert. Mine tasted like burnt plastic and i noticed strands of plastic hairs inside so i pulled them out thinking it was a piece of my filler. Nope, it was installed in there from the factory, why i ask? I have no idea. Anyways to my question.

Will lacing regular cigarettes with e-juice be harmful to the body besides the analog cig already itself? Since I have to wait 1-2 weeks to get my new e-cig shipment from China I've purchased analog cigs in the mean time and whoa marlboro red 100's cant even satisfy my cravings any more. I literally had to drop e-juice around my cig to feel anything.

I'm a bit worried now cause I am 100% sure that I am way more addicted to nicotine than ever before. I don't mind vaping for the rest of my life, I just hope it doesn't get banned cause if it does I'll prob end up smoking 2x more than before and dying of cancer earlier.

Is this a trick question?

I'm with you. Newbee, if you are really putting e-juice on your analogs, you ha ve one he** of a problem. Maybe you need to get some help
Sorry if I sound unsympathetic, but geez, give me a break

........marlboro red 100's cant even satisfy my cravings any more.

Wow. I'm impressed with the whole e-cig concept and what it does for me, but I'm at a loss

Have you tried a couple ounces of roll your own baccy, wrapping a half pack of camel non-filters around it, soaking it all in 36 mg juice, then taking a blowtorch to it?

 

[kevbow]

Is this a trick question?

I second that

 

[smokum]

I don't think ridicule is warranted here, especially to a newb.......

If you do not have an intelligent or understanding response to offer, perhaps you should refrain and move on.

Well, we always try to say there is no such thing as a dumb question, but this one just about qualifies there.
You are kidding, right? And what was your goal, again? To raise your nicotine level?
That's fine, but please don't take it out on e-cig use. You're not going to fool anyone with that slant, because we all really do know better than that.
Try something else, like bubble gum. And I don't mean put it in your cigarette.

Trick question or not, dont stick the juice in a cig

 

[Scottbee]

Egads...

As others have said, DO NOT DRIP E-LIQUID ON YOUR LIT CIGARETTE!

There are domestic sources for the 510, for about the same price as getting one imported. I would look into them ASAP. Delivery time is usually only a day or so depending on your location.

I don't think this is a trick question. I did notice that after going from e-cigs to analog cigs I smoke two or three analogs back to back. I was a little worried about that myself.

 

[Houdini]

After only 4 weeks of vaping I just don't see how anyone can build up such a tolerance to nicotine to the point where a regular cigarette will not satisfy them. Unless of course he was vaping 10ml's of 64mg's a day then maybe that would do it. This just doesn't sound like a realistic question.

Better to deal with withdraw sooner than latter. Bite the bullet and scale down.

While the e-cig may be a toy nicotine isn't. Its an addictive poison.

I'm using 24mg now and while I could use higher I've decided to bite the bullet and get used to 24mg. I consider it an investment. Latter I'll move to 18mg.

To me the point is to no longer be owned by cigarettes. I don't want to be owned by a 510 either. The difference is I can control what goes into the 510.

Not sure this makes any sense.

A good long vape has only about 1/10th the nicotine that a cigarette does.

Thus, a cigarette WOULD quench your cravings just fine. You might miss the taste of the vape but you'd be way on the up side as far as nicotine.

 

[Vocalek]

Very strange. Most of us can't stand the taste of analogs after having been off them for as long as 4 weeks.

As for being "more addicted to nicotine", I have to remind myself to pick up the e-cigarette and use it. My clue that I'm not using it enough is when I start making stupid mistakes, or repeatedly can't remember why I just got up and went into the next room. So I would say that in my case, "addiction" is gone, but I am still medically dependent on it to maintain normal brain function.

Hmmm... just a thought. When you stop all forms of nicotine for a couple of days, do you become very lethargic and anhedonic (unable to experience pleasure)? If so, you might want to talk to your doctor about medication. Wellbutrin works well if you have no history of seizures. It helps reduce some of the cravings for nicotine. It didn't get me OFF cigarettes, but it certainly helped me reduce the number that I smoked significantly.

Well, if it isn't a bogus question, then I'll give some feedback...

1) I doubt anybody knows the health consequences of actually burning the juice
2) Almost every indication we have is that in general we are all taking in less nicotine, not more

--There have been people who have done nicotine content testing on their blood
--There are studies showing we absorb only about 10% of the nicotine content of the vapor
--There are many stories of people finding they don't NEED to vape like they NEEDED to smoke

I have to agree with Cat...I went from a pack a day and still do smoke an analog now and then. When I do, oh man...I have to put it out halfway down (a friend loves this, we go out to the balcony and he is all 'can I have that half there?' lol). It is not the nicotine for us so much as the HABIT. The RITUAL. We have withdrawn from tobacco (that was not nice!!!). I really don't get this question but I feel that we have no choice but to deal with insane questions, Ya'll. Unfortunately, e-cigs, like the internet, do not come with a pre-existing quiz to determine whether it will be used right or not, hehe.

Anyways, on that note. Don't drip niquid on an analog. Just smoke another instead.

Actually, for me my 510 is not satisfying me. I'm still having lots of cravings. So I am chain vaping my 510. Then when I go back to analogs to satisfy my cravings, a cigarette seems to go by so fast that I have to have another. I think it is a nicotine thing when I have to chain vape my 510, then a mental thing when I have to have more than one analog. I don't really know what is going on. However, I'm smoking far less analogs than I used to so I'm not that worried.

Google what happens to PG at high temps and then what temp cigarettes burn at and you will not want to add it.Yep PG is already in cigs. You'd get dead.

 

[RKayne]

Maybe Ya'll should look into High Voltage
