"Nope.
The vegetable oil used is a bit disgusting.

There's no vegetable oil in them, it would cause huge lung damage.
It's vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol. |

And what do you think VG is a deritive of? I know about vaping oil but VG is made from vegetable/seed oil.

I do feel it's somewhat irresponsible of vape companies to pump out so many disposables. I know batteries can be placed in recycling bins etc, but there's still a load of plastic.
What ever happened to rebuildables, I know they're still out there, I use one. Has the world suddenly decided they haven't got 10 minutes to knock up a new build when the time comes. And in the long run it works out a damn sight cheaper too. |

The beach of the Thames is covered in bits of broken clay pipe from the ghosts of smokers past. I used to collect them with the kids from my art club yo paint and make necklaces with. Maybe in 200 years people will be doing something similar with these colourful plastic gadgets. |

I'm very thankful that I didn't become addicted to smoking, as I probably wouldn't have been able to give up.
I was just reading about popcorn lung and how it's caused by added diacetyl in vapes.
I keep on at my grandchildren about the harmful effects of vapes and cigarettes, hoping it sinks in.

True but it doesn't contain any lipids which is what killed all those American kids a few years ago when they made cannabis liquid using oil. |

Popcorn lung never actually happened to anyone who's vaped.
The connection was made by the media after workers at a popcorn factory developed it from breathing in raw diacetyl for more than a decade. As a result the vape industry voluntarily removed it from a majority of liquids (at least in the UK and Europe).
There's also 750 times more diacetyl in a cigarette than any vape liquid ever had.

I've only ever used disposables and mixed my own liquids.
The European laws surrounding vaping are ridiculous with limits on the amount of nicotine and a maximum bottle size of 10ml (for liquids containing nicotine). It just adds to the plastic waste we're already dealing with. |

That should have said rebuildables and mix my own liquid. |

I'll still tell them they can get popcorn lung and show them the article with a teenage boy on a ventilator. If I can stop them starting now, they might not take it up later. It's still not a good thing to put in your lungs or body. |

Totally agree. I only started to quit smoking. |

An article by a lung organisation states that although diacetyl was linked to popcorn lung in factory workers it is still used vapes and e cigarettes. |

Are you thinking of quitting vaping? I don't seem to see as many people vaping as I used to. |

Not in Europe all liquids that go on sale are required to be batch tested and checked for banned ingredients although some American and other imported liquids contain it. |

I did quit but started again after a particularly rough time. It was the better option rather than drink, Druga or anything else. I mix my own liquids and only make it to 0.75mg nicotine. The next step is zero and quitting altogether which is what I did last time. |

Not in Europe. America had a bout a while ago but that was due to cheap Chinese imported juices. Nowhere in the West allows it in juices.

There were several cases of people making their own cannabis infused liquids but they used vitamin-A oil rather than glycerine! |

Have you looked into the semi disposable devices? Cheaper to use and not so damaging for the environment |
