This was posted a couple days ago and yes, it was interesting (even if it ticked me off a bit).

Consider me your recycling center for njoy Pro, Smoking Everywhere Gold, Cloud 9, Smoke 51 Trio, and DSE103 dead batteries.
Other hardware if it’s still usable.
Those I loan out to/give thank you.

I think that study is wrongly equating sucking with inhaling. I don't direct-inhale and I get the impression around here that few people do. I call it "inhaling", but really, I'm sucking vapor into my mouth, then inhaling it. So no matter how hard I suck on my ecig, it doesn't affect the actual inhale part of my vaping process (which is not a deep inhale in my case - I inhale lightly and exhale it very quickly, just like I used to smoke).

I'm sure we all vape a little differently, but this seems like a totally pointless study. All it's saying is that it takes more effort to get vapor from an ecig than to get smoke from a cigarette. Duh.

Considering that I've been tobacco free for 7 weeks to spite the battery changing and the diminishing aerosol production...AND even with all that stuff don't vape anymore than I smoked... IMO this part is nonsense!

It is too early to know exactly what effect stronger inhaling and diminishing amounts of aerosol will have on human health, but these factors are likely to lead to compensatory smoking, as has been seen previously with ‘light’ tobacco cigarettes,” said Prue Talbot, a professor of cell biology and the senior author of the research paper.

Exactly what I was thinking when I read the study.
