As far as I know, typical (updated/newer) smoke detectors are set of by carbon monoxide (usually) Some older detectors (like the 1 I had to get rid of in my apt were set off by heat/reaching a certain temperature) Like anytime I took a shower.

As far as looks I get the odd one here and there but with a bald head, tattoo's, and piercings that's nothing new. I was fortunate enough to be born with idgaf syndrome.
Classic brother ! I have dilligaf syndrome myself so i feel your pain
Respectfully, I disagree totally. That is how the ANTs win the battle. If it's legal, and not disrespectful the {Moderated} them! It's our right to vape and their right to shut the flock up or cross the damn street.
Sorry, needed to do that

I suppose if there is enough dense vapor in a small room they may go off.
have a ton of books in here so several (3) smoke alarms and vape all the time and have yet to set one off.
But I do remember smoking a cigar (La Unica) about 3 years back and they all went off in unison.
I'll look for busardo's flick on vapor setting off smoke alarms to see what the man has to say.
Probably not. I was thinking public restrooms. If I was in a hotel I wouldn't have to vape in the bathroom.
(unless it was a no smoking hotel..Haven't seen one of those but then I haven't seen many hotel rooms.)
I'm a homebuddy.
I have a portable CO meter/detector and when I got it, the first thing I did was blow ciggie smoke into it and it didn't set it off.
otoh, I went out by the noise barrier wall between my back yard and the expressway and in a certain corner of the yard with not much of a breeze
it did go off. That was 5 years back, The apparatus cost me $80 and was part of a plan to sue the FDOT but there wasn't enough CO in the atmosphere past federal limits to justify the demand.
But I did almost pass out once while pulling climbers off the ficus trees in the general area where the meter/detector went off.
That's why I bought the thing.

I dunno, I've seen some stupendous clouds from sub-ohm vapers in vape shops. I couldn't inhale that much vapor without throwing a gasket from the coughing fit that would ensue.My husband asked me about it, the first couple times we saw that, in vape shops; I explained it was a very hot coil and usually a great deal of VG. His reaction? "I'm glad yours doesn't do that." Same here!!!!

the maintenance guys at my new job asked me if I was smoking by the entrance when I was going back outside to go home, I said no, I'm vaping, guess they know what that is but still told me I cant do it at that exit, had to go to the side one, but that's the only harassment if any I got so far since quitting analogs and only vaping
people are just ignorant and quick to pass judgement and lecture, of course you could wave a ak47 while vaping and see if they now tell you no smoking

However if someones in a place that doesn't allow it then they should be the one crossing the street. Not act if there's some right to vape anywhere someone pleases.

But imagine the possibilities, you could hire yourself out as a fog machine and get paid for vaping.
Vaping is a privilege not a right...nah. However, mutual respect is a must.
How can we as vapers expect respect if we don't give respect?
'An it harm none, do what ye will'
Not to say second hand vape would harm others physically, but everybody should have the right to control what they will or won't
breath in.
I can't ethically object to the people smoking by the grocery store entrance if I stand there vaping.
It isn't the same yet it is.
Unreal! Can you even imagine?? Actually. I think I've been in that room.
