MODERN TOBACCO

The health differences between vapor vs cigarette smoking are officially unknown, according to vapor and tobacco research. It’s technically unproven that e-cigarettes are a safer delivery device for nicotine. However, we are absolutely certain of the harm deriving from the inhalation of burned smoke, especially in cigarettes, and even more so with modern tobacco of today’s time.

TOBACCO IS GENETICALLY MODIFIED

If you are smoking a cigarette at this very moment, it’s deadlier than one smoked thirty years prior. If you smoked a cigarette thirty years ago, that one was deadlier than a cigarette thirty years before that, and so on down the chronological timescale. Of course, any form of smoke will essentially contain naturally occurring carcinogens like hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide and benzene (to name a few.) Yet, conglomerate tobacco companies have incrementally added copious chemical compounds, thus compounding the worsening mix. Actually, Today’s tobacco is genetically modified to a degree that was hardly in comparison years ago. Modern tobacco is genetically modified by the tobacco companies in efforts to stave off certain insects feeding on the leaves; an engineered, ingrained insecticidal crop.

TOBACCO ADDITIVES AND ENGINEERING PROCESSES

Tobacco has always been harmful to one’s health (Especially when smoking.) With the potency increasing additional tobacco additives and engineering processes over the several decades, such as ammonia chemistry, acetone infusion and even sugaring methods, tobacco cigarette harm has been more of a recent concern than ever. Newer carcinogenic forms are taking place with the discovery of adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas; newer strains of cancer from newer tobacco. Meanwhile, a new passageway into freedom emerges, and people are entering at rising rates.

IS E-LIQUID SAFER?

The passageway I attempted to metaphorically convey is, of course, the adoption of vapor VS cigarette smoking. Is E-liquid safer? Vapor consumers are presently aware that e liquid is unproven to be safe, or safer than an analog cigarette. As I presently am in subjective disagreement with any argument disfavoring e-liquid, vapor or any e cigarette  product, I will present the proceeding content as impartially as I may.

UNPROVEN TO BE HARMFUL

Factually, tobacco contains a slew of slovenly chemicals known to hinder health (Approximately 4000 + when burned and inhaled.) E-liquid from reliable manufacturers might contain about twenty, and every one of these chemicals are unproven to be as harmful as even a sole one of modern tobacco’s 4000+. Some e-liquid may contain diethylene glycol, a chemical thought to be unsafe in its relation to antifreeze. For this matter, e liquid should not contain “diethylene glycol.” It should contain “Propylene glycol” and “Vegetable Glycerin” and flavoring. Even a squalid e-liquid is unproven to be harmful. Don’t want Diethylene glycol or anything overly synthetic? Well, don’t buy foreign e-liquid. And don’t buy e-liquid from the same guy selling you crack. And don’t buy crack!

E-CIGARETTE VENDORS

In all sincerity, there are plenty of e liquid and e-cigarette vendors in the U.S. and Canada selling all natural and organic 100% Vegetable Glycerin e-liquid. If anyone is concerned with only a handful of potentially bad ingredients from an array of e liquid vendors to choose from, then discerningly decide your selection with insight. You may want to investigate e-liquid vendors before making a purchase. Check out their rapport within the vapor community. Scope out their website; look at blog reviews. Perhaps even email them inquiring whether their ingredients do or do not contain this or that. What does your instinct instill?

VAPOR AND SMOKE

Factoring these options, ideas and considerations hopefully ought relieve your worries, or perhaps even encourage enough awareness to take action and quit smoking and join the vapor community. With the game of vapor and smoke at play, more and more players are lining up. It’s our move. GAME ON!

FDA regulatory authority in e cigarette industries

CrazyVapes.com

Recent news articles nationwide have revealed impending FDA proposals for regulating the electronic cigarette industry. With citizens made aware via press, future FDA regulatory authority in e cigarette industries became common knowledge in the U.S. Springtime this year, descriptions of FDA involvement with e cigarette enterprises made their way to the top of the public information pyramid: The New York Times.

Upon reading the title, my initial reaction was rather contemptuous, searing my soul with the heat of sheer disappointment. I felt ill at ease, outraged and infuriated. I then, however, actually read the entire article. My residual opinions were held in absolute irony; I found solace in my discoveries. Allow me to duly convey, yet dually relay the aspects to both sides of this heavily weighted, immensely inflated coin.

On first thought, any e cigarette entrepreneur may likely shun light shone on seemingly dismal prognoses concerning the FDA. Why would any eCigarette company owner want an agency meddling in the affairs of their business? No one in their right mind would for many reasons: Companies must register and post e liquid ingredients, FDA standards of e liquid ingredients would be at the mercy of the agency, and eCigarette owners would have to willfully subject their laboratories to FDA inspections.

Future FDA regulations of e Cigarettes would easily and righteously bring about an angered reaction. There are several core issues at hand: potential profit loss, possible time loss, or perhaps the lack of initial funding to maintain these endeavors. Considering these potential facts, starting a new e-cig venture next year (When the FDA regulations are projected to commence) will be entirely more costly than in the present. There are, however, other reliefs.

The FDA outlined plan neither stated nor implied any regulatory impedance on the sale of flavored e liquid. Furthermore, there are neither any current, nor impending federal taxes proclaimed (although, history would suggest otherwise when concerning FDA influence, inevitably speaking of course). Yet, taxation is not the current crutch, nor will it be any time soon. My advice: make hay while the sun shines. There are temporal, golden windows of opportunity at the moment.

Factors of future FDA influence needn’t inflict much worry on our well being in modern times. I’m not implying to sit around, doing nothing of the sort for preparation. I’m simply suggesting a mentality of gratitude for the current moment. Besides, happiness cannot exist in a mindset of ingratitude. Rather than dwell over what isn’t, or may not be working, perhaps embracing the present opportunities will alleviate any undue hardship. Find the benefits.

If you are in current ownership, management or employment in the vapor industry, financially sustaining a way of life, then this way of life should be considerately, and thoughtfully embraced. Some may choose to label me naïve; I would suggest a different choice of wording. I consider my approach to FDA regulations realistically optimistic, and advantageously proactive.. with what is now, and what will not happen then. As previously stated, flavor in e liquid will remain and we haven’t yet been burdened by any intrusion of undesired tax. It really isn’t all so completely awful. When the FDA regulations take effect, then obstacles may arise. Yet, obstacles were designed to be overcome.

I sit here writing at this very moment for www.crazyvapes.com in my office with much appreciation. I’m sure the FDA has an end game in mind, but it will not affect my day. With a www.crazyvapes.com tank full of flavored e liquid atop an Ovale C-Twist, I grin largely with the offerings of life. As a lush cloud of vapor is exhaled directly at my laptop screen, the grin widens with a ludicrous craze.

Carto Tank Refilling Tutorial

http://crazyvapes.com/product/vapor-glass-tank/

Greetings vapor enthusiasts!  The following demonstration is an instructional, Carto Tank refilling tutorial right here at http://crazyvapes.com/blog/ .  This blog at www.crazyvapes.com descriptively explains how to refill a carto tank.  When the e-liquid in your carto tank reaches, or surpasses below the cartomizer’s punched hole, then it is time to refill the tank with more e-liquid.  If the punched hole on the side of the cartomizer fails to stay saturated with e-liquid, you run the risk of vaping a dry hit, or burning the coil within the carto.  Once a dry hit or burn takes place, your cartomizer is usually rendered useless.  The process of refilling may be new or seem tricky to many consumers, so allow me to explain the ideal method of refilling the Carto Tank.

Initially, you should utilize your trusty Carto Tank Refilling Tool.  Secure the tool atop the cartomizer as if it were a Drip Tip (I prefer to have my e-cig attached for extra support).  Then, while firmly holding the lower and upper Caps or Grommets securely in a grip, slowly slide the Carto Tank Refilling Tool downward, pushing the Carto away from, and underneath the upper Cap or Grommet (Ideally both Grommets or Caps should remain secure to the Tank all-the-while.)  Once the Cartomizer is freed from the upper Cap or Grommet, remove the Carto Tank Refilling Tool from the Cartomizer, and remove the top Cap or Grommet (if the Grommet or Cap is difficult to remove with bare hands, use the skinny end of the Carto Tank Refilling Tool.  Slide the tip of the tool into the center of the Grommet or Cap to pry it off of the Tank.) At this point, the top of the Carto should be level with the tank’s upper rim (essentially, as it was prior to this process.)

Next, simply squeeze e-liquid in the empty space between the metal Carto and inner tank… NOT inside the Carto or Filler.   Refill e-liquid about 3 quarters full, allowing enough space for the Grommet or Cap to fit. Now, reattach the Carto Tank Refilling Tool on the Cartomizer again, and slide the Grommet or Cap through the tool.  Then, while securing the bottom Cap or Grommet in place with your hands, assuring it won’t slide out; re-apply the upper Cap or Grommet to the top end of the tank.

An important side-note: while engaging in the refill process, periodically check for over-saturation of e-liquid within the Cartomizer Filler, or Leakage to the bottom of the tank.  This may happen, but it’s not a big deal.  Fix the problem by using an empty needle-nose e-liquid bottle to suck the excess e-liquid from the necessary spots.  For a final touch, twist a tissue-end to a long, fine point and slide into the Vent-Chamber at the bottom of the Carto Tank.  Repeat this process as needed.

At this point, both Grommets or Caps should be mostly secured to the Tank.  Make a few final adjustments by flushing the top-end of the Carto with the top-end of the Cap or Grommet; make sure the two parts atop are aligned by gently pushing around the circumference.  The bottom side, punched hole of the cartomizer should be no more than one or two millimeters above the lower rim of the bottom Grommet or cap.

The final step requires to double check for leaking or over-saturation; clean and mop up excess e-liquid as necessary.  From this point on, your tank will be air tight until you remove the Caps or Grommets… or misalign anything by mistake (which is difficult to do).

How to Prime the Cartomizer

http://crazyvapes.com/product/cartomizers-5-pack/

Before implementing a Cartomizer to any Carto Tank, you must know how to prime a Cartomizer.  Allow me to demonstrate Carto Priming.

First, open your new Cartomizer and remove the silicone protector.  Then, gently drip a few drops of e-liquid right into the filler (the white cotton-like material inside the Carto).  Once a thin layer of e-liquid has saturated the top of the filler, place your lips atop the Cartomizer and blow through it, briefly.

Repeat this process of e-liquid saturation (usually about 7 rounds) until you notice e-liquid dripping out of the Punched Hole on the side of the Carto (E liquid will drip, at first through the bottom vent hole next to the thread, you need it to drip out of the punched side hole).  Next step is to clear out the vent chamber of excess e-liquid by blowing through the top again with your breath.  You may even want to dab up the excess e-liquid with a tissue.)  Once the e-liquid drips through the punched hole, the Cartomizer is now primed and ready to use with a tank.  Simply apply to the Carto Tank, fill the Tank and Vape away.
