Flavored E-Liquid is for noobs

[Lilvapie]

Being new to vaping I used flavored ejuice like tobacco and other flavors. Just tried a flavored premium juice - it sux really bad and causes the atomizer coil and wicks to go bad and I cant get the smell out of my tank even after soaking in alcohol and rinsing for a long time. Any "harmful" chemicals that are in e juice is all in the flavoring. Nicotine is not inheritably bad, neither is pg or vg, its the nasty flavorings they use. The flavoring destroys the wicks and your lungs. So, if you want flavor eat some fruit or chew some gum, because your vaping crap.....Its flavorless e liquid for now on.....

I'm definitely not a noob and I love my flavored liquids. It's what keeps things interesting enough for me to avoid buying a pack of cigs. To each their own, noob or not.

Additionally, your statement about the flavorings ruining your coils AND lungs.....the best thing to do is always NOT to vape or NOT to smoke. However, any harm it causes is definitely a reduction from the harm that regular cigarettes will cause. I'm sure there are future studies to come that will confirm this. Until then, I will use numbers from my own bloodwork to confirm that fact for me.

Hum, I have to agree "to each their own"

I just started vaping so I consider myself a noob/newbie lol I am not a noob to science though, and I still managed to let marketing get in the way of science.

I guess people vape for 2 reasons- flavor and nicotine buzz. I certainly vape for only the nicotine buzz, I can do without the deadly, coil destroying flavor additives.

Whoa, that's a pretty bold statement. Got any science to back that up?

The darker the fluid, the quiker you will go through wicks (even high flavored clear liquids are garbage too). It gunks up the whole system. Vaping flavorless is like a sweet water vapor of cool heavy vape production. Any chemicls that are considered "toxic" are in the flavors. Now we must understand that the only characteristic that makes any compound poisonous or not is the dose of course. With that said, the flavoring additives "gunk" up coils. I see people run dark flavored e liquid and low nic out of a nautilus and watch them go through coils quik. While I can get a better expereince with a pyrex aro tank with a low flavor or no flavor high nic juice. What a shame how much misleading marketing is going on.

Not really sure what misleading marketing there is. Most people know that dark juices gunk coils quickly. Flavored eliquid exists because people want it, that's really all there is to it. While there isn't a ton of data around about inhaling all these flavors to prove they are safe, there also isn't anything to suggest the majority of juice flavors are dangerous at all. Custard types are commonly known to be a possible safety issue and can simply be avoided if a person is worried.

I sense a troll.

Just trying to let people that are new to vaping and only want good vape production with long lasting coil life that flavored e liquid is not the way to go. There is a realist or utilitarian viewpoint for you right here. Man, science ruins everything lol

I'm sensing someone that follows "bro" science, not real science.

Feel free to post your real science showing that flavors are poison.

 

[stevegmu]

I know how to vape; I can vape flavored without gunking up coils... Certainly flavors are the unknown, but I'll take my chances... My guess is the flavored juices I buy contain purer, higher quality nic, VG and PG than whatever you are vaping...

 

[shorty70]

Good troll call...

 

[Lilvapie]

Feel free to post your real science showing that flavors are poison.

Remember, dose makes the poison. You can die from drinking too much dihydrogen monoxide (water). It is going to make your coils not last long, any flavor additive. If you want clouds and vape just for nic, flavors are a waste. If you read back I siad if any harmful compounds are in e liquid, its in the flavoring.

This is a post to save some people from a lot of wasted time and money, not change any of the "professionals" mind. Once I got rid of the flavored garbage, I could not believe what I was missing.

What is a troll? Is that someone that understands science?

Hey---if you want to vape unflavored, that's completely your choice. A lot of people vape unflavored for many different reasons. It doesn't mean that the rest of us cannot enjoy our flavors. I feel that your original post poses some hostile judgement on the rest of us who do enjoy flavors. Perhaps I am getting the wrong impression.

Vaping nothing would be better than vaping non-flavored. If you want to be totally risk free-don't vape at all.

We in the vaping community love the science behind vaping and welcome additional scientific proof to validate (or even negate) the claims that vaping is safer than smoking, flavoring or no flavoring. I think we can both agree we fit that bill.

If you are new to the forum (as your 36 post count indicates) I would recommend browsing the forum a little more and checking out CASAA for more information about the studies that have actually been done. We are all in the same boat here when it comes to questioning the safety of vaping.

In the mean time, most of us will continue to enjoy our flavored e-liquid. Glad that you enjoy the flavorless liquid. Whatever keeps you from going back to the cigs.

Nice of you to tell the millions that we are killing ourselves for flavor. Seems that there a multitude of businesses staying afloat due to the fact that us millions like flavor. Spout that rhetoric elsewhere, I'm still well stocked with crazy and am not buying what you are preachin. Have a nice whetever you call your life.

Yup. Thats why I said people vape for two reasons- flavor and nic buzz. I just want to let people know that if you don't do it for flavor, try some flavorless as it prolongs your coils.

Again I am trying to warn those that are new to vaping, not those that know it all like you. Have fun vaping your flavored junk.

I can do without the deadly, coil destroying flavor additives.

Well ain't this the kettle calling the pot black.
