vaping, how do you feel about it?
 
This apparently has been gaining ground as far as controversial topics go. Personally I think it's a great alternative to cigarettes but i always hear people complaining about them. Heck they even have natural e-liquids like the Natures Vapor line these guys have www.mkt.com/magicmixtures what are your opinions on vaping?

Bought a 20w istick and a silo a while back (starter setup). Quit smoking...bought one for my dad but he doesn't like the metal tip on it same setup as mine. Just bought a arctic sub ohm tank and a sigelei 150w mod box and love it might need to step down on the nicotine but LOVE IT.
vaping 5 chemicals
cigarettes 7000 chemicals according to the commercials.
read an article that said vaping is no more harmful then breathing air but it is a chemical that is not supposed to be in your lungs so you shouldn't do it but this dragon blood cheesecake is awesome. People that don't like it shouldn't do it. But i would recommend it over smoking any day besides better taste and smell it is MUCH cheaper.

As a non-smoker, I think it still sucks because I can still smell it when I go to a place where people vape.

I understand it's just water vapor, but it's smelly water vapor lol!

I respect people's rights though, no biggie. It only really bothers me in enclosed spaces where vapor cant dissipate.

Just regulate it the same as conventional cigarettes. That would extend to testing, labelling, sales, taxation, and controlling where they can be used.

It's not water vapor the two main ingredients are propylene glycol (PG) and vegetable glycerin (VG) and the majority of flavors are PG based. Plus nicotine
i rarely ever vape in doors And outside i usually vape away from people.
there is a lot of info on this subject due to increased popularity.
Well it's almost 4am here im going to vape on some vanilla caramel cappuccino and get some sleep.

LOL Paraphrasing Karl Marx, nicotine is the opiate of the masses. About a Billion people are addicted/habituated. (Die Religion ... ist das Opium des Volkes, 1843, 'German - French Yearbook')

On a related note, my cousin works for the Health Department and she mentioned the need to look into the vaping industry on safety concerns, specifically mentioning the hardware.

Apparently some of the cheap China equipment can malfunction in ways that can hurt you. Those 18610 batteries pack a lot of juice.

I see, thanks for clarifying. :)

And thanks for considering us non-smokers also! :)

I don't think studies have been done that show it doesn't bother anyone. The second hand inhalation effects may be similar to cigarettes, we just don't know yet. I think the use of e cigarettes in public should be restricted to those places where smoking is permitted, which are few and far between these days.
