Exposure to cold?

[tanikir]

Does cold (even freezing) temperatures affect Bloog cartos at all? I was guessing it would be fine since there is plenty of expansion room, but I'm noticing a lot of used cartos are leaking now. Is it from the cold or are there other reasons for a carto (no re-filling) to leak? Also, would the carto shelf life change after it's been used for the first time?

I can't begin to tell you why brand new cartos are leaking.

But I'm pretty sure it's not the cold. The cold DOES affect vaping.. makes it harder to heat the coil and produce vapor. I lived in Chicago my whole life, trust me, it's hard to vape in the cold. Even now that I'm out in Washington, it was harder to vape outside in the cold.

As for leaking... maybe just a bad batch? I don't know. Anyone else have an idea?

Cold is actually a bad thing for e-liquid (unless you let it steep at room temperature for a while to recover), is all I know.

i found it hard to vape while i was on the ski mountain. but it was not impossible. i kept my ecigs in my jacket pocket so my body heat helped a tad. i was still able to vape even though it was only 3 degrees outside. the vapor was thinner and i bet the batts got taxed more, but it was possible. but after i threw the handwarmer in my ecig pocket, it was all gravy. i was actually concerned about them getting TOO warm

knit them little sweaters.

Actually on the few cold days we had up here I just vaped while it was still in the battery pouch, it seemed to help.
