Is it possible to use essential oils in a vape?

I don't think many essential oils are intended to be heated to a high temp(boiled), vaporized and directly inhaled, which is what you do with e-liquids that are intended for vaping. Could end up with some unpleasant and possibly harmful effects. E-liquids for vaping are often mostly propylene glycol(PG) and glycerine, and usually nicotine(3mg, 6mg, etc.) and flavouring, and maybe FDA approved for vaping use as well.

vaping essential oils because you can vape them, is similar to putting cleaning products in cocktails because you can drink them.

It's kinda ironic I suppose that more people are more interested in the what people died thread than the thread about trying to stay alive. Life hurts I suppose but what's the excuse. Anyway to stay on topic of off topic. I really hope this site I've found believes me when I say I'm buying the 72mg nic for commercial purposes :p
 
For anyone out there who mixes their own juice you must know how disappointing it is to buy some concentrate and then once it's mixed up it turns out to be shit. Well I've found the cure all, fix all solution. WS-23 30%. If you ever make a bad batch add a bit of that. Add 1% and it cools like menthol but without the menthol taste. Add 2 or 3% and you get a brain freeze like sucking on a McDonald's shake. Honestly love this stuff :eek:

ws-23?
 
Yeah kind of. I don't really know how to explain the taste. I wouldn't say it's minty but it gives that same sort of feeling. Do you have Halls blackcurrant soothers in the US? I made up a batch of blackcurrant which was ok but after adding a bit of that it tastes kind of like them but with brain freeze:D

If we do I don't know about them :)
 
Nice. How the fun should I know though you posted them :p:D I like though. I was tempted by that mod. I do like the look but my alien is still going strong at the moment. Honestly I'll usually find a little thing to justify me buying a new toy but the alien's been dropped and battered and only the paintwork is faded in places. A different time I'd have jumped at it but trying to save 2 grand to rebuild the engine in my rx8. I really could still be tempted though as there's times when a second mod would've come on handy :)

One downside to that mod I now have....it is heavy. I can feel it in my coat pocket and cannot/will not carry it in my shirt pocket. It's a good mod to leave on the end table next to where I sit to puff on :D

Honestly I saw it and I liked it but I thought it kinda looked hard to get out of my jeans pocket when there's other things in there. Night out jeans probably not a problem but work jeans is a different situation. Lots more stuff in them and the holes in the pockets are fixed with cable ties :D

Oh for sure, not to mention if you forget to lock it, it may fire in your pocket :D
 
Still might though. I could definitely do with a work mod and a social mod. Is that the Prince tank on that? If it is have you tried the mesh coils?

Not sure what tank that is, I'd have to look at the specs of what came in the box lol...

Not sure what a mesh coil is? I have the coil that came with it.
 
I suppose the easiest way to explain mesh coils is to think why coils are called coils. It's because the metal that heats up is rolled up in coils. The mesh coils aren't rolled up they're a mesh, hence the name. I asked because I'm undecided on them. They work at a lot lower wattage so I don't need to worry about taking spare batteries out with me. The problem is using the same juice some have burnt out in a couple of days but some have lasted 3 weeks. Never really been any consistency with them.

Ah, for sure not heard of them then....interesting though :).

I've only seen like the quadruple, sextuple or whatever coils, or rebuild-able ones.

That sounds like the ones which came with the Prince when I bought the tank. Out of the 3 coils which came with it the X6 sextuple was the best for me. They were what I was buying before the mesh ones came out. I did like the t10 decuple but they used too much power and I had to swap the batteries over half way through my work day.
 
I've never got a coil which could go up to the max of the alien. Strangely Smok don't make one which goes as high as their mods :thinking: Got to be tanks out there which will though I guess. I've taken Smok coils up to their max before though. You get 3 massive hits and then you get a dry hit because it couldn't pull enough juice back in to replace what you've vaped.
 
Hello guys, I have a quite decent set myself Joyetech : Ocular C and Uwell Rafale X RDA and I am flover chaser, so um.. maybe you could help me and advice what coils and cotton should I use for building? I like taste that is smooth not something that is too sweet( yep, I know pretty well that vaping is not all about e juice but also about hardware you using) so yep. Waiting for your answers guys
