Higher Elevation... 5280 ft. +

[bizzyb0t]

I just ordered my first e-cig starter kit...

I'm new here but I haven't seen anyone mention performance of vaping in higher altitudes...

I live in Denver and the elevation is at least a mile high. Is that going to affect the amount of vapor?

I know this may seem like a silly question but I can't find any information about it.

I can't think of any reason why it shouldn't. If you can suck, it should work.

I can't think of any effects it would have either. If I had to pick an effect besides "nothing" maybe I'd say the liquid would be vaporized faster.

There are plenty of folks here who have puffed them on commercial airplanes and they didn't mention anything about anything being different. Yes, airliners are pressurized, but cabin altitude is still gonna be higher than 5280 MSL.

There is a thread about cold air effecting performance of ecig here :-

I can also say humidity also has a HUGE effect on visible vapor production .When It's warm and humid you will get plumes of vapor .When it's cold and dry you get less visible vapor .

Thanks smog!

That exactly the kind of information I needed!

Wow, alot of people from CO popping up lately. Don't worry at all. I live in Greeley, and have no issues with vaping. At least anything that would be caused by atmospheric pressure/Air concentration, which is really the only difference caused by elevation.
