Even if one doubts most studies as well as this research it is clear that shorter hits, longer pauses and a mix with some water content is simply safer. How much safer is open to debate but safer nonetheless. Much appreciated!
I have one friend (@VapingBad here on ECF) who vapes 100% PG for the lower boiling point. I plan to try that later today.Even if one doubts most studies as well as this research it is clear that shorter hits, longer pauses and a mix with some water content is simply safer. How much safer is open to debate but safer nonetheless. Much appreciated!
Also, higher mass, with more wick coverage, (Heatflux as someone else pointed out) made a big difference for me with all else being equal. I was able to lower my temp by about 10% and still get a awesome vape.Even if one doubts most studies as well as this research it is clear that shorter hits, longer pauses and a mix with some water content is simply safer.

LOL, My first reaction was "I can measure that". Then I took the tank off and looked at the coil, not enough space for me to stick the probe tip in between the coils.I'm not convinced your larger coil is actually vaping at a lower temp. The mod will give you the average temp of the coil but the inner wraps could be just as hot (or more) while the average is still below that of the smaller coil. Think of it as having really long legs.
Lol, probably good. It'd be another Pandora's box.LOL, My first reaction was "I can measure that". Then I took the tank off and looked at the coil, not enough space for me to stick the probe tip in between the coils.
It does makes sense though, on a more spaced coil I measured it considerably cooler on the outside loops.Lol, probably good. It'd be another Pandora's box.
How so, where?This whole study has been exposed as flawed in scientific method. Let's not forget that please.
As stated: pseudo science.This whole study has been exposed as flawed in scientific method. Let's not forget that please.

Dr Farsalinos offered the mOre detailed explanation but it's about the type of chamber they're using. It isn't representative of actual vaping. I believe he wrote an article on it but specific to this topic if you go back to the early pages you'll see his twitter response to me.
The problem with all These "studies" is that the scientists seem to forget scientific method. They either aren't isolating or they're not using the products as vapers would.
OK, I found it, but it doesnt convince me.
I cant get past the finding that at 450F you get nasties out of vg.
It seems to me that whether you use an ecig, a torch, a chamber, or a campfire, if VG gives off nasties at 450f then I cant understand why it wouldnt on a 450f SS316 coil. Now, quantities measured in their fog machine vs an ecig are different, but their presence at some level seems logical.
If I heat water in a reactor and it gives off steam at 100C, why wouldnt I expect steam in a tea kettle or shot glass at 100c, the quantity of steam might be different, but the steam is still there at 100C..

Vaping is about harm reduction. I'd never propose someone who wasn't s smoker take up vaping. I think most of us can agree that we don't have nearly enough information to know what it's doing. However we can say that the accurate studies accomplished so far all show that it's far less harmful than smoking. Which is what we would be doing.
If you're truly concerned about your health you probably should stop vaping. I mean logically inhaling something other than air over and over isn't going to be a good idea for those who are health conscious.
There's also another route. If you're truly worried. Most nicotine is absorbed through the soft palette. So don't inhale your vapor. Put it in your mouth only. The nicotine will still get to you as most is absorbed in the mouth and nasal passage anyway.
That has a tone that is way different than anything I have proposed here. It "sounds" like you think I am saying vaping is evil. That has never been my premise. I have never said vapping was more dangerous than smoking, I have never said anyone should stop vaping, I have simply said that some nasties can be avoided by not vaping too hot.
Honestly, I dont get why people are so adamantly reluctant to simply entertain keeping their vape temperatures lower than 450f? Yes, vaping is all about harm reduction, if you can reduce the harm even further by vaping at 420f, why the heck not? It is not different than saying - using a little less salt is healthier.
