Hello there ECF! Hope you're all having a wonderful day, for I certainly am not.
Today my battery died on me at work, and I had to deal with the nic jitters all day.
I came up with an idea that might suit my needs for a device that doesn't depend on electricity.
Now I'm no authority on vaping, and I'm still pretty much new to the vaping world.
But I'd like to throw it out there and see if someone sees any sense in it.
What I was thinking of is a manual vaporizer, that depends on an external heat source to vaporize the e-juice.
It would come down to the image below:
________
|............: |_^_________ .
| TANK :*: ____TUBE__===
|______:_|
* gas-permeable membrane
. drip tip
^ airflow ring
What you'd do is unscrew the tank off of the membrane, and fill it with liquid, then screw it onto the membrane again.
The membrane is nothing more than a small piece of aluminum with tiny holes in it, that allow the vapour to go through, but not the liquid.
When you heat up the tank with a lighter for example, vapour will come through the membrane and it can be used like a regular analog.
I think the liquid would have to be at least 50% VG for the difference in density of the liq and vapour to work with this.
The question is, would this work? And would this provide the right amount and taste/temp of flavour, and throat hit?
If the theory is sound, I could see if I could have one built, and then I'll post the results later.
