vapor dont seem natural...Question :)

[joshuaa]

First off i have to say i LOVE my joye510 3 piece setup i only have experienced with 3 other flavors(waffles,cheesecake, and menthol). In my opinion the menthol tastes and smells like Vicks rubbing cream, besides that what i am really curious about is if what i am inhaling is actually "clean" i have 100%vg 48mg nic solution and then a bottle of pure vg mixed together with the lastly the flavoring. i went with the vg solution because i wanted the vapor production and don't really care for the taste though its a huge plus because the flavor really does taste great(plan to get some pg next shipment for test experience).

I noticed that some of the "vapor" i exhale does not seem all to natural and i am almost certain i can see the actual water vapor dissipate in the air much quicker apart from entire "vapor" cloud. Is it the vg i am seeing that clears away much slower? my flavoring comes from loranns oils and i know oils are bad for atty life but I'm not certain if this is what i am seeing in the exhale. Would anyone happen to know what is going on here it could be as simple as different types of liquids having and longer duration in "vapor" form whatever the case is i am no wiz on this stuff. Any help/info is appreciated.

thanks, Josh.

Clouds are water vapor, and they only dissipate when the air can absorb them. It's natural. I'm not sure what you mean by the vapor dissipating before the cloud though?

As for the "oils" . . . most of LorAnn's stuff is flavoring and not actual oil. I know there's a thread in here someplace about which are safe. I think there are only like 6 or 7 that aren't good for your equipment.

Here's the list Freaky was discussing.

LorAnn Flavors

be sure to check against that list. Some of those flavorings should NOT be vaped.

Ive noticed that on sunny days, a cloud of vapor can hang in the air, just like cigarette smoke, when I'm vaping. I believe this to be safe and natural. As to the menthol taste, was the juice premixed or did you mix it yourself ( and I certainly hope you're not vaping 48mg juice ), either way letting it steep can sometimes get rid of a chemical taste. I got a 5ml bottle as a free bonus from a vendor that tasted horrible when it arrived. A week later I tried it again and it was wonderful. Aging juice is a good idea even with juice that's vapable day one.

Not entirely sure I understand what your saying but VG creates more and thicker vapor and dissipates slower than PG vapor.
If your worried about what your inhaling/exhaling....have you ever blown cigarette smoke into a tissue or looked at the filter of a smoked cig? brownish yellow...gross. If you blow vapor into a tissue there is absolutely no discoloration or residue left on the tissue.
Most of the flavorings you use, even Lorann's are water soluble. There are a few that are oil based. list of what's good to use here. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/diy-e-liquid/28975-lorann-flavors-color-coded-complete-ingredients-list.html


MrGrimme beat me to the list, lol

Thanks for adding in the link guys . . . I knew somebody would come along that had the sense to keep track of it.

Thing is that my vapor cloud looks like part of the vapor definitely disappears quicker than the rest of the cloud.(and no i dilute my e-juice to around 16-18mg nic.)

ehh yes i have blown into a napkin before and i could see there was no discoloration...i just wanted to know what the excess vapor that i could see linger longer than part of the "puff"

I'd check on the content of the flavorings. You absolutely do not want to inhale anything oil based into your lungs. It won't clear. That is the reason that you don't see oil based nose drops anymore.

That said, I remember reading that there are some flavorings that say oil but actually contain glycerin instead. I guess they are supposed to emulate oil based flavors. I'd still check them out.

Not to ask a really stupid question, but am going to anyway... are you making sure to shake the bottle prior to putting it in your atomizer? they can separate while in the bottle, and you could see a difference in the plumes depending on which fluid dripped out first.

Does this mean the cinnabomb is not safe?! I'm pretty sure it has cinnamon oil, as it separates, looking like salad dressing. Eek, I vape that a lot...

That sounds scary!

I just checked all of my juices, and checked the website of the juices I'm waiting on, luckily I'm in the clear.

I'll definitely keep an eye out for that though o_o

It's safety factor is up to you to decide. Yes, as listed on VaporBombs's website for Cinnabomb it does have some oil in the flavoring. Personally I love CinnaBomb but only vape it occasionally.
