In a DSE601 e-pipe

YouTube - Vaping a SNUS in a DSE-601 e-Pipe

Yeah, it does work. Pretty good. Not a big throat hit, but the taste is there and fairly good vape.

Next time you do a video review of this, i'd like to see you try "Oden's Kanel Ekstra Sterk" Snus... lets kick some flavor into the video 'eh? but seriously, i had not seriously considered this as a possibility till i saw this lol.

They sale this stuff cold down the road from me. I wonder how much nic you are getting off of it, and I also wonder if PG would work on it.

I agree here Big Jim....Unfortunatly you would need to use a mini snus...which limits the selection of useable snus in the cartridge....Maybe you can try a Thunder Wintergreen(16mg)cut in half...I think the throat-hit will improve big time( I will try it for you this weekend and PM you my results..LOL)The Wiz!

I have to admit, I was a little disgusted at first. Once I got over my Camel bias I have to admit the idea has merit. I would have to agree with kc, the Swedish stuff has alot more flavors, and can be purchased at different nicotine levels.

 

[Stubby]

There are certainly ways you may be able to improve this. You could use thunder frosted minis that have 8 mg nicotine. Twice what the normal mini has. It also has a higher ph which could increase the absorption of nicotine over the camel.

Another way to go would be to start with loose and roll your own portions using tea bags. You would have a wide variety of high nicotine snus to choose from.

One finale note as to the pronunciation of snus, it rhymes with goose, or loose. It's not snoooooze, unless you want to take a nap.

Thanks guys, I'm going to do some experimenting. I had the snus on hand to try it, but I'll check out the other suggestions to try.

I managed to get a decent taste and throat hit by adding 2 drops of flue cured tobacco 36mg e-juice and only one drop of a menthol crystal/everclear solution with the snus. Gave a better throat hit without compromising the taste of the snus. Now my e-juice will probably last forever.

 

[TropicalBob]

I tried the same, Jim, adding two drops of 36mg to the VG in the spoon. Can't say I felt any difference. I also have 48mg tasteless if I want to try that. I also want to try pure Bickford Kahlua in the spoon, vaping just a flavored snus. For that, I have Wine&Dine tasteless snus now. I also have the very strong, but small, Thunder Frosted mini and Tabaco mini. These are powerhouses of nicotine.

For your pipe -- I miss my e-pipe! -- you could use Claq Qui or Odin's or Thunder regular portions. Knock-you-over nicotine.

No tests of these yet, as I'm enjoying my snus the traditional way! But if e-liquid becomes unavailable ...

 

[JamieJ]

Very creative and interesting idea. If liquid becomes unavailabe I will definately try this. THanks for the experiment and video!

I wonder if it would work in the wizard stick!

My DSE601 atty died yesterday. But I don't think it was the juice or vaping the snus. I think I ran the manual cleaning mode to long. Vapor production sucked even with regular juice use. I ran the cleaning mode for about a minute and it produced great vape even with the snus. Then a few minutes later, nothing. I bought the pipe used and the atty may have been heavily used before I got it so it may have been on borrowed time when I got it.

I bought another atty for it. Should be in in a few days. I just can't get enough of this pipe.

This. I never considered it either. I certainly wouldn't have used Camel. Has a pitiful 2mg nicotine content, and it's a pretty .......ized form of snus. To their credit they did get the carcinogens down to basically nothing. Still: mada mada dane
