Ok I'm hoping I don't get heat for these questions/statements but educating ones self especially with something that is still very new is important to me.

1. Read some articles on how there is second hand vape similar to cigarettes (99% better mind you) what are your thoughts? Vaping may not be as safe as smokers think, research suggests | Society | The Guardian

2. Formaldehyde found in builds running at high watts/voltage? But 0% at low/normal builds, what i can't seem to find is whats considered to high for a Mechanical mod or even for a V/W, V/V Setup? My normal build for a mech mod is twisted single coil 24 gauge 6-7 wraps, usually gets about 0.28 ohms and single coil 8 wraps of 24 gauge puts out 0.73 ohms on my flavor builds.

You have come to the right place to get the truth !!!!!!! The powers that be are trying every underhanded trick in the book to keep folks from knowing or trying to find, the real truth. Both of your linked articles are pure junk science.

Check out Baditudes links and have your eyes opened to the real facts.

When I told my doctor I'd replaced smoking with an ecig, he was absolutely delighted.

There probably wouldn't have been so much enthusiasm if vaping was anywhere near as bad as smoking.

But if you weren't a smoker to start with - don't do it!

Niccotine is addictive, so once you start its hard to stop.

Been smoking for almost 15 years, but quit last year and been vaping ever since.

I've seen first hand what cancer does to people!

Stick with the ecig and never look back.

I plan on never going back to cigarettes, its crazy because i forgot my Stingray at home and took a puff off my friends cigarette and was so disgusted, where are the fruit flavors i love! I'm glad to learn about the Formaldehyde issue, haven't found the 2nd hand smoking research yet.

I'm worried because i have a 1 year old daughter and 4 year old and i've been vaping around the house, after reading about mice dying because vaping caused weakness in the lungs, making the flu or respiratory issues worse just freaks me out. I feel like i should vape outside from now on or i'm hurting them.

At the end of the day, you still exhale some of the vapour, and you won't have absorbed every last bit of niccotine yourself. But at least you've eliminated the wisp of smoke that continually rises between puffs and hasn't been filtered by your lungs.

I've just been on a bus and noticed a no vaping sigh, they're going up in an increasing number of places. Its *WAAAAAY* less risk to others - but isn't quite inert.

I don't know about those mice but my lungs are stronger & I no longer come down with ailments which affected my breathing.
