TPA Redhots too Hot for Atomizers? (melts plastic?)

[VWFringe]

TPA Redhots melted the cup under my atomizer, stopping air-flow. I took it out and it's a gelatinous mass.

last week it ate the paint off my atomizer (loose and wrinkled around the base where I have a drip well)

I figured the paint thing could've happened with OJ or Coke, but the plastic inside the atomizer, so that's the flavor I've been noticing lately, plastic Ive been vaping

i'll call them later and ask what's up, but does anyone else have this problem?

 

[Hoosier]

Nope.

A can crinkle paint on some attys just by putting them in a bath of plain PG.

I've melted cups on a number of different juices. Don't remember that flavor being any worse than most.

 

[VWFringe]

when you've melted cups did you taste it, and know to stop using that atomizer?

i can't really afford to throw away attys every two weeks (how long I'd had that one)

how can i search to find out the plastic melting juice flavors out there so i can avoid them?

The cinnamon red hot i've used from PA has never done any harm to my atty, but i only use 1 or 2 drops max per 5ml of juice which is more then enough cinnamon flavor for me. So if your going heavy on the CRH, it might be causing issues.

Vicky from TPA says it's the Cinnamaldehyde molecule that's attacking the plastic, kind of like the molecule in orange oil cleaner...certain molecules are just hot or aggresive

She said the other flavor that will have the same type of molecule is Cola because it's made with all essential oils

and it isn't going to mix with plain VG, she says, and told me plain VG is notorious for not mixing with a lot of things

I've been mixing the Redhots at 20% because when i first tried it was in 100% VG, before I received my PG, and before I understood how much plain VG mutes flavors - LOL

Lol, I knew those hot flavors were more trouble than they're worth.

I really wonder how healthy it can be to inhale a vaporized form of something that can melt plastic

The ability to dissolve plastic does not indicate anything one way or the other about the health effects. Lots of perfectly safe & ordinary foods have very bad effects on certain kinds of plastics and metals.
