I don't see how humidity would affect the function of your vape, other than too much moisture could be causing a short.. If it working, it should still be heating and vaporizing the fluid. I can see how humidity or the dew point level could affect Steam production but not vapor production. In my mind the drier and colder the air then the more STEAM will be seen in the vapor. The hotter and wetter it gets the less steam you see in the vapor.

It's 51 right now, on the other side of the Smokies, here in Knoxville.

Could it be that your battery needs a charge? I work outside and know all about humidity and heat. it's never affected my vape. Yes, you can still get a puff.

Colder months will automatically show larger clouds exhaled. Just think of when we were kids and could blow a cloud with our breath. We thought we were so cool, because it looked like we were smoking. Yeah, cool kids. :eyes:

Here in North Carolina the temp is 80* F with humidity in the 90s.
It seems to me if I'm outside I don't feel like I'm getting any hit from my ecig.
Is it the South or just me?

What happens in the cold months?


nicotine concentrate is affected by heat. Not sure how the chemistry works but I know it should be stored in a cool place out of sunlight. A friend of mine in australia once got a shipment of eliquid from the states that didnt work, or rather it seemed to have no nicotine content. They sent him another batch and explained that they'd had problems due to funny weather.
(maybe that was just an excuse, i dont know)

But this doesn't explain it if you think your ecig works inside and not outside. thats just you.

I do notice a little bit of a change when I am outside in the heat and humidity, or just in the car before it cools completely. It seems the juice gets a little thinner in the heat. I am still able to vape, however it there is not as much vapor- or doesn't seem that there is.

I am glad October has arrived--I am a cool weather girl! Summer is not my favorite!
