Do you know that feeling when something gives a huge number of people a bit of pleasure, and helps them kick a habit that stands a substantial chance of killing them, and all you want to do is criticise it and mock them for it? No, neither do I. But you can’t spend very long […]
And How You Could Help Science! Critics of vaping often point out that “we don’t have enough long-term studies” to really know how much risk vaping poses to users. While the Royal College of Physicians and Public Health England have famously estimated that vaping isn’t likely to pose more than 5% of the risk of […]
Vaping is changing. For a long time, e-cigarettes just kept getting bigger and bigger. We went from cigalikes to vape pens, from vape pens to tube mods, from tube mods to box mods, and since then the box mods have been packing more and more batteries into their bodies. There are many reasons for this. […]
I had a few misconceptions about CBD prior to trying it. A friend of mine was vaping it across from me at a pub table, and after innocently asking what her e-liquid was, my curiosity was piqued. “So does it give you a sort of relaxed, sleepy high?” I asked, “Like weed but just with […]
Smokers have a reputation for having bad teeth. They get “nicotine stains,” people say, turning their teeth from a brilliant white into a dull yellow-brown. Faced with comments like this, most vapers would rightly point out that nicotine in pure form is actually colourless. It seems obvious that – much like with the health risks […]
In hindsight, I wish I’d taken all of the safety advice for DIY e-liquid mixing seriously. But I used to smoke, so it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise that I have a bit of a cavalier attitude to risk. It didn’t happen on my first mix, but I quickly learned that DIY mixing […]
It’s safe to say nicotine has a pretty bad reputation. From exaggerated claims about how toxic it is to the unfortunately widespread myth that it causes cancer, it’s long been viewed as a menace. As soon as e-cigarettes came on the scene, they were viewed as a menace too, largely because most contain it. Nicotine […]
A friend of mine tried multiple times to switch to vaping. He’d picked up an eGo-style device with a basic clearomizer and some e-juice, but vaping irritated his throat so much he couldn’t keep going. He assumed the nicotine level was the issue. However, reducing it makes vaping less satisfying for a just-switching smoker. Plus, […]
Dripping is awesome. A little more hands-on and hard work than vaping with a tank, I’ll admit, but the flavour and clouds of vapour are hard to beat even with a sub ohm tank. But if you’ve been reading the news over the last few weeks, you’ve probably heard another side to the story. According […]
Find out if you are allergic or sensitive to PG, and what to do if you are…. Somewhere between the failed cold turkey attempt and the disappointing experience with Chantix, he’d lost hope. He started to feel like he was just destined to die prematurely with battered, barely-functioning lungs. But seeing a friend vaping had […]
