I like to vape. I'm allergic to smoke so I don't smoke. But I do not vape products with nicotine in them. I usually vape CBD oils. It helps calm my nerves and helps keep me mellow.

I do flavor vape with 12 mg of nicotine.

After I quit smoking, I just don't feel like vaping. Eight years without a single cigarette.

Vaping Mermaids Blood at the moment.

@KingPeep LOL. What?!

It's excellent. I prefer dabbing but it doesn't get me as high as vaping some decent weed. This Davinci IQ is an amazing little machine.

@Jnei Thank you for pointing that out, but I don't think that means they are safe either. Caveat emptor. [factcheck.org]

@jeffy Indeed; not safe and it's far better not to smoke or vape - however, the popcorn lung argument was blown out of proportion.

Popcorn lung debate is obsolete. Very few of the vape brands use the chemical that causes it. And everyone of them lists the ingredients in there Vapes online.

@Jnei Yes, thanks for correcting that. I wonder why someone went to the trouble of doing that? Who knows?

@jeffy The most obvious answer to that is "the tobacco industry", who have a vested interest in discouraging people from replacing tobacco with vaping and are well known for being economical with the truth!

Think it causes your kidneys to bleed.

No thanks. I'll just keep smoking.

No thank you. It's bad for your lungs.

It's still nicotine, and nicotine is a poison. From what I've read it has other adverse effects.

You may have quit the cigarette habit, but you are still intaking nicotine.

Nope. They have many brands that do not contain nicotine. Most have the option of how much nicotine you want in them and you can choose from none to high doses.

I know of no one who vapes just to look cool, though I'm sure there are people out there that do. Even those are ingesting toxic chemicals that will damage the lungs/body.

Personally, I don't see the sexuality of smoking and I was a smoker at one time.

I am always guarded about newer things. THere just hasnt been the time to accurately determine long term side effects

THIS^^^
My late dh vaped.... I'll always wonder. I don't trust them at all.

One side of my family vapes.  They are constantly shrouded in a cloud of fragrant steam.  If i cannot roll it into a joint, I don't want to smoke it.

E-cigs helped me quit cigarettes but I only used them for a few months and then didn’t need them any longer. I’ve been smoke free for several years now and if I get in a rough spot or know I’ll be around smokers or clubbing I pack that e-cig as backup. I used the no-nicotine version.

The artificial fragrances in most vape products make me react just as badly as tobacco smoke. Weed smoke doesn't bother me.

Vape away so long as you aren’t obnoxious about it.

Only dry herbs (weed) for me in a destop pothead model. None of those funny pen things, even the eliquid pot ones.. weird .. sorry funny pen heads.. i know i just dissed like the whole world lol 😛

i got the 'mighty'

@SeeCanU They are wicked!!! really great taste and high quality !!

helllll yea!!

I have had 4 crafty's and loved them all. I wear them out pretty quick though. Now I have this DaVinci IQ and I like it better. Easier to clean and seems more durable. Plus it has a 10yr warranty,

@kauva Excellent!!!! I like the look of davinci ... they are wicked ... the crafty too but I thought they looked super well made, but you must get through it haha!! Fair play.. I use an Airizer without the bag model.. the has lifetime gaurantee on element and few years on rest so not bad.. I bought it years ago and use a desktop to stop me carrying it about lol.. I can get high enough for a day with that and not really want to vape again ... I can take it or leave it despite my input sometimes lol .... Have been known to detox for a week or two now and then!! Love it ... Vapes really changed way I used weed.

Haven''t tried it yet.

It is great for cannabis, no muss no fuss, no roaches, no stinky aroma, no tars and other gross things, just around 80% THC. I don't vape nicotine or other flavors unless I am on vacation and I need to satisfy my oral fixation, and then 3% nic.

This gives a pretty comprehensive overview ...

I'd rather just smoke. Never could get into ecigs or vapes because it just isn't the same

1

What one chooses to inhale should be their business, so long as it doesn't harm others. The same rules and considerations that apply to smoking should apply to vaping.

Not a good idea. Lots of chemicals that will eventually kill you. But then everything out there can eventually kill you. Getting old will wear you out and you return to being dirt.

Aren't there carcinogens in e-cig vapor? Just like cigarettes (tobacco or weed) and cigars, I'm not a fan of hookah and e-cigs. Breathing in smoke or concentrated flavored vapors (nicotine or non) doesn't seem like a good idea from my perspective.
