Salt?

[No Brag]

While I wouldn't do it, I would encourage you to try it, but ONLY if you report the results! (Because I may have the whole thing wrong and I'm too stuck in my mindset to try it myself.)

I have to admire a man that knows himself that well. I have to go into work for 2 hours, then have the rest of the day off. I'll probably be trying the salt solution later today(on an old atty) I'll let you know what happens, if I live through it.

Thanks for taking one for the team. I will be waiting to hear the results of this test.

Seems like you will be okay... After you said that I worried about it so I googled 'inhaled salt'.

Unless the heat recrystalizes (and I don't think it would burn) it seems like it has already been used for treatments for viral lung infections and cystic fibrosis.

Here's one place but they are selling something.

and this

For centuries Eastern Europeans have taken advantage of salt caves in order to naturally treat respiratory problems like asthma and bronchitis. This drug-free approach to treating respiratory conditions is not accepted everywhere but those who have used this method of treatment and international researchers have stated that the use of salt cave therapy (speleotherapy) and similar halotherapy have great respiratory benefits.

I don't think the salt will vaporize if our pv's worked like a cool mist humidifier I could see it carrying some of the salt but they are more of a distillation process

IDK how cool mist humidifiers work offhand. Sorry, I 'm not great at the science of it. What range of temps do attys normally fall in? I read all this stuff about decomposition of acrolein beginning at 180C (IIRC), but I still never saw what temps they get to.

It has been a long day with the kids and grandkids home for Christmas and I forgot all about the salt flavor. That is until Ski2Liv reminded me on another thread.
I used sea salt(just to irritate some people) and plain water(for the same reason) I made a saturated solution and let it set a while. I added 3 drops to 3ml of bacon flavored juice. I have been vaping on it for about 15 min. now. I did taste the liquid and there was a definite improvement there. I can't say that there is a salty taste to the vapor, but it is an improvement. I am going to add some more just for the heck of it and see what happens. I'll report back later.

Good Deal !!!

Just make sure to dial 9-1 and keep your finger hovering over the 1 as you vape. Also, keep you hand under your PV just in case your atty spontaneously crumbles into dust from the salt/chromium oxidationtional decomposition. Those chemical redox's can be swift and sudden.

I used sea salt(just to irritate some people)... ROTFLMAO!

Thanks man!!! Happy Holidays

Don't all of us DIYers experiment on ourselves, a la Dr. Jekyll????

I have been very interested in this experiment.....thank you for the update!

Just salt dip. Think tequila shot. You don't need to vape salt if you want to add the taste of salt.

I tried adding some more "salt" to my bacon flavored e-juice. To much water and it killed the vapor production. O-well I had some fun with this and I also found out what didn't work so I won't do it again.
Merry Christmas!!!!

Well it was worth a try and I think the idea JonnyV posted may be a winner

Have you tried increasing the density of your brine solution? Put a little salt and boiling water into a blender. Zoom-zoom. If it's still too "thick" add a bit more water. Rinse, repeat, till it's dissolved the particles. May not work, but just an idea.

 

[No Brag]

Nekoshi, I was using a saturated solution of salt water. Once the solution is saturated it will no longer take any more salt. It just settles out into the bottom. Thanks for the idea.

Got it. I wasn't sure what method you were using for mixing, so I just tossed it out as a suggestion. I used to work as a lab tech at the local university and we often had to use spin plates and scalding hot water to get some of the higher density saline or sucrose solutions we used.
