I've been smoking in my college's library next to dozens of people and in a class of 40 lol.... all you need to do is breathe into your shirt. I like blowing it and hiding the cig though - people are always WTF.
Hiding smoke - easy

That's a thought Gashin but what if you're wearing a shirt you cant breathe into? I just hold it in for a while then exhale really slowly and that works too 
though I don't like hiding it, i prefer getting the funny looks.
though I don't like hiding it, i prefer getting the funny looks. I'm new, so hi and all that; Very useful tips etc here.
Anyway, just wondered if you - like me - have found people very annoyed with your cig use because they cant' stand to see people having a good time?
At work, I was chatting to a bloke who was very pleased that indoor public smoking is effectively banned in the UK, so I whipped out my e-cig and talked him through how it worked. The look on his face when I took a drag and then puffed out vapour was priceless!
"But that's SMOKE!"
"No, it's steam - nothing's burning"
"BUT...BUT ... won't it set off a smoke detector?"
"Well, let's see" I walk to a nearby ceiling-mounted detector an puff a lungfull at it. Nothing happens, of course.
"BUT...BUT... It's SMOKE"
"Well, it quite clearly isn't, is it?"
He was quite clearly offended by my cheating!

smoke from e-cigs can set off certain types of smoke alarms. in particular if it detects a change in visibility of air.
Yeah, most smoke detectors use a simple light sensor and any particulates that block the light will set it off, including steam or vapor. But it would be unlikely unless you were blowing directly on it. Like you did. Wouldn't that have been a ..... if it HAD gone off?

I pulled my 901 tonigt out to show some friends...they got soo up tight... "no I can't try it here...someone will think I am really smoking" the thrill of it all! I took a drag and the waitress came over to check on us...took a second look...vapor gone...no odor...she looked a bit confused!
If there are any hint of problems, I usually inhale and hold it in. There is almost nothing when I exhale.
I should REALLY stop doing it at work though. hehe. shouldn't tempt HR.
But i can't stop by myself!

Lol, I work in HR trust me, we ain't that bad
! Can't wait to try it out in the office tomorrow!I've been warming everyone up about it, luckily I've recruited most of our directors myself so I should be able to get away with it for a day or two!
Well we just had a bunch of layoffs (20+) so it's probably not the best idea for me.
Hope you like your new ecig Kroll!

I had mine delivered to the office and started puffing away and the guy next to me started complaining about the smell. I explained that there was no smell but he was adamant. Perhaps its the fact that that he's an ex-smoker that coughed his guts out when he had a go on it a few minutes before complaining.
Well I still smoke outside with the others, but I love the look on their faces when I apparently plant a lit cigarette in my shirt pocket and just walk off. It's the best gag yet.
And, non of them have noticed my cigarette hasn't got shorter either.

Jimblibs: My wife can tell what flavor I'm smoking. She got "almond" right as we rode in the car with closed windows and I merrily e-puffed. We had a thread sometime back about co-workers complaining of being made ill by the "second-hand vapor" from one e-smoker.
So ... it DOES smell. We'll never smell it, of course. Our smellers are shot.

I vap in a large room in our house. My hubby doesn't seem to smell a thing...maybe smaller spaces or homemade cocktails have more smell.
I find itg mucho easier to smoke everywhere, now that I use the JANTY CLASSIC, w/o a lite at the tip, mucho easier to explain, it is NOT tobacco.
BTW, wife LOVES the smell of my menthol/coffee/ry4 belnd

If you hold your breath for awhile, it greatly diminishes the smoke if not entirely eliminates it. Steam condenses more quickly than real smoke, so you don't have to hold your breath for a really long time. 10 seconds is generally enough.
It will give you a hair of a nicotine rush, but if you're trying to hide the smoke it's not so much that it's not worth avoiding an awkward situation (like when I took a drag off mine at work today and the member of management most notorious for getting upset over every slight infraction walked by).
Perhaps it would have been fun to see the expression on his face after watching me blow out a huge billow of smoke, but my factory has seen layoffs to and I decided to avoid tempting them too.

But if the vapor exhaled is supposed to be 99,9% nicotine free, why holding the breath longer would give you a greater nicotine rush?
maybe its not a nic rush but lack of oxygen rush...point is you hold it in there is less evidence of vaping.
its one of these things people used to moan about smoking and then they were all happy when that was banned now they need something else to moan at well its either gonna be alcohol friends of the earth or us lol
