I've only been vaping for about two months and I haven't had a cig. which is a good thing but I have a concern. I'm constantly sucking on this thing whether driving or watching the boob tube. Since I've quit smoking I am not coughing my lungs up like I used to do, which is definitely a good thing, but since I'm constantly sucking in vaporized PG and VG along with a variety of flavors I wonder how long it will be before the surgeon general tells us that e-juice will cause mutations in our DNA or something to that affect.
Thanks for your reply! PG is very hygroscopic and will cause dehydration of your mucus membranes and connected organs which may result in a burning sensation. If one drinks ethanol w/o diluting it, it will literally burn your mouth and throat as it absorbs any water it comes in contact with. That maybe why you said that your lungs hurt. I've noticed my throat being a little irritated after very heavy and prolonged vaping.
With that level of VG you should really be putting out tons of vap! What is your nicotine %? The more nicotine the greater the throat hit.
With that amount of smoke production you could get a job laying down smoke on stage at a concert or other theatrical events!
Theatrical smoke machines use glycerol (VG) for producing thick clouds of smoke. As far as the alcohol is concerned make sure you stay away from Ethylene Glycol (a form of alcohol and toxic) instead of propylene glycol in your vap.
Welcome Cajun Sorry but can't help you with extracting cigar tobacco.
anybody know how to convert cigars tobacco into ejuice?
I don't know much about extracting liquid from cigar tobacco (there are YouTube videos) but I would wonder about all the bad chemicals in tobacco that we are trying to avoid. I know we would not be burning it like real smoking but one has to wonder about inhaling it in vapor form.
The only real concern I had about the health effects of vaping is if the glycerin promotes cavities or tooth decay... It shouldn't.
thanks that kinda got me worried a bit,most juices where I am is mostly 70% vg and the rest is pg...
I have learned the hard way how important hardware is, my brother bought a few family members dual ego and ce5's kits for the holidays, I figured all I needed to do was find the right juice and I'd be an ex smoker, after a month of frustration my local vape shop suggested the MVP V2.0 and Kanger Aero Tank Mega, what a difference, within a month I had quit and learned that even with a 2+pad habit vaping is so much more expensive! Just in the last week I got a Vapor Flask in the mail and bought a used Hexohm V1 from one of my locals employee. My name is Clint and I am powerless over spending money on new vaping gear every chance I can! ;-)
