Is there a market for Stealth Liquid?

[tmbrown327]

Stealth liquid is defined as delivering taste and throat hit but little to no vapor upon exhaling. I personally find this liquid useful in certain situations (work, planes, restaurants etc.).

I am trying to find out if there is enough interest to attract a US source for an existing stealth liquid from China, or perhaps to have a US liquid manufacturer develop one independently, sort of reverse engineering the current Chinese version.

Is it not the point of a PV to get clouds of vapor to replace/ replicate smoke from analogs? I have four boxes of Nicotrol Inhailers from my doctor for "nicotine replacement therapy" Using them was not satisying in the least, even though I was getting more nicotine than I do from my PV. Without the vapor, it is nothing - or at best no better than patches or gum. I don't understand the point of "stealth liquids." I have seen them mentioned here several times, so I am curious.

I agree - what's the point?

Just inhale deeper...

There are times when it is preferable to NOT exhale clouds of vapor, as in you don't want to alert others to the fact that you're vaping, as I mentioned in my first post. If you don't have this need, then I guess it's not for you. I'll bet you find such a situation eventually though, and then you'll have your 'aha' moment. All I'm trying to find out is how many there are that need this.

Some/most liquids will not be subject to even extraordinarily long inhale and hold techniques, or if they are, it's uncomfortable to do. Stealth liquids still give you the taste and more importantly, the nicotine you need, without the visible display. Definitely not for the long haul, but for certain cases, very valuable.

I agree, tm. Especially at work. Most people that see vapor will assume it's smoke. I'd definitely invest in some stealth juice. I'm past the point of having to see huge clouds of vape to satisfy my cravings.

tm, I'd have been all over that when we went to Disneyland. Holding my breath while vaping in line worked until it started raining. I wouldn't buy a lot if it were available, but it's definitely something I'd want to have a bottle or two of around.

Tonight at the movies I felt I had to blow vape down my shirt w/ my grandson. At work I have a private office but someone's always knocking and I am waving the vape away before I can say "come in"...there ARE places for it IMO until the e-cigg is understood and welcome anywhere...I'd have some on hand for sure. Where does one purchase this stealth juice now?

 

[grateful d]

I would totally buy it. There are tons of places that I could vape that I don't because of the "you can't smoke here conversation". Would be easier to just use the stealth juice.

 

[quovadis]

Yes there is a niche.
i would use it in cinemas and planes.

I don't get it, how did rain prevent you from holding your breath while vaping?

RE: Stealth liquid - I'd rather just use snus when vaping isn't practical/possible.

P.S. What do you call "vaping" when there's no vapor?

 

[gsc4077]

i totally understand not wanting to produce vapor in certain situations, the same way i feel at work . . . but i think that is exactly what the Nicotrol Inhalers would be good for, i.e. exhaling without any vapor. I guess personally, "vaping" without seeing the vapor just wouldn't be the same.

I hereby officially confess that I don't care much about producing huge amounts of vapour; it's just not on my list of important things. I don't care all that much about not producing it, either, though. I do imagine, however, that there are more than a few situations where such a liquid will come very handy.

It didn't matter how long I held my breath, there was still vapor. I did fine the first day, but the second day it rained pretty much nonstop and there was just too much moisture in the air.

Dekang produces the juice I've tried. A few Chinese shops and maybe a distributor in the UK sell it (ecisdirect?). Pretty much why I started this, it's a little tough to find. So far, two US distributors have said they'd start carrying it, but I haven't seen any available yet.

This juice would be for those of us that don't like snus.

One of the characteristics of this stealth juice is that there actually is vapor produced until you inhale it. Then it pretty much disappears on the exhale. If you took a mouthful and blew it out, you'd see the vapor. Ruyan had/has this characteristic in their Jazz line (first e-cig I ever tried).

being able to vape at a high voltage, and not having to blow out vapor at places say "The Movies". Would be priceless. Stealth vapping at high voltage can be kinda hard at times.

 

[karenrcg]

I have some stealth juice, I use it when I want to be discrete or when I'm not supposed to be vaping. No vapour= nobody knows what your doing=no questions asked.

I have only seen it available in one flavour though.

 

[tmbrown327]

Dekang actually makes it in about 10 flavors. I've only tried the original (kind of a peppery menthol) and the 555 (they call it something else). The original works beautifully, very stealthy, but the 555, not so much. Lighter, for sure, but not gone.

I've been told I can no longer vape at my desk because is doesn't "look right." My direct supervisor went to the powers that be and explained it's only water vapor and I had quit smoking regular cigarettes with a PV. Doesn't seem to matter... It just "looks bad." In my office, we have no contact with anyone not working with the company. I would love to have a stealth liquid for work.

I have no idea how this liquid performs at HV, I've only used it in 3.7V devices.
