What is vaping? Is it safe? What kind of investment it’ll take? What is the difference between a JUUL, e-hookah and a vape pen? How do e-cigarettes work? How to get started? Our vaping guides cover all aspects of vaping right from the basics, all the way to advanced tips and tricks to get the most out of your vape device.
What are the dangers of vaping? There is an ongoing debate about the dangers of vaping and how it compares to tobacco smoking. In order to fully appreciate the health benefits of vaping, let’s first look at tobacco smoking.
Have you been listening to the media lately and have concerns over heavy metals in your vape? Well you should be! We should all be concerned about things related to our health. This is why we wanted to show you some of the information the media is not giving you because it doesn’t drive traffic their way. As always please remember to consult a doctor if you are having any medical issues but this should help to clear up some of the Heavy Metal reports.
The important part is to figure out what the actual levels of toxicity are in the vapes. But because of conflicting reports and lack of scientific studies on the matter it is hard to tell where the truth begins and media histeria begins.
Richard Polosa, a world authority on the issue, addressed this issue in tobacco addiction and respiratory medicine that should help!
“Should you be worried about the low level of metals that come with inhalation of e-cig vaper?”
Richard Palosa answered by saying: They should not. Current findings indicate that e-cigarettes are by far less harmful than tobacco cigarettes. First, levels of metals found in these studies are well below the maximum permissible daily exposure from inhalational medications according to the US Pharmacopeia.
Second, although the levels found in e-cigarettes may pose some residual risk, it is by far lower compared to tobacco cigarettes. Please keep in mind that cigarette smoke contains a cocktail of more than 7000 toxic chemicals with more than 40 recognized carcinogenic substances and focusing on trace levels of metals does not create significant health advantage, but only alarmist headlines.
Third, considering the reports from the environmental protection agencies, vapers should be more concerned of the air they breathe in polluted cities rather than their vaping!
Finally, product innovation (new materials, cotton wicks, etc.) will eventually minimize these residual risks.
He also said: Portraying trace levels of a certain chemical as harmful is a common tactic used by journalists, lobbyist groups, and even governments to incite chemophobia to the public, which is now fuelling much of the emotional debate over ecigs. Of course, simply associating hazard with the presence of a metal does not mean that this in itself is dangerous.
But everything we touch, see, and smell is made up of chemicals, and anything reduced to its chemical name can sound sinister when presented to people who are unfamiliar with chemistry.
Unless you are exposed to large doses of these metals they are not considered toxic even by the wonderful FDA. So, while yes it is very important for the future of vaping and our health, to do this kind of research, presenting it in an honest and truthful way would help it even more.
So as always, make sure you do your research on the things you put into your body, and don’t just brush off claims like these. We want e-cigarettes to be a better alternative and we need tests to be done. But also don’t freak out too bad with sensational headlines in the news before you hear from the experts who don’t have an agenda.

Public Health England (PHE) has issued a detailed report examining the health implications of e-cigarette use. Titled “Evidence Review of E-cigarettes and Heated Tobacco Products 2018”
The most eye-catching part of the report shows the health of using E-cigarettes and present a lot of real data that e-cigarettes represent only a little of the risk posed by smoking standard combustible cigarettes.
Although using E-cigarettes may not totally risk free, but the PHE report estimates that they may be 95% less dangerous than regular smoking.
There's more to consider than meets the eye when it comes to vaping. Sure, it's easy enough to pick up a basic vaping pen, fill the tank up with you favourite e-juice and get going, but most vapers like to delve a little deeper and customise their vape. From altering nicotine levels and trying different flavours, to modifying coils and tanks to get the perfect hit, vaping can be a hobbyists deam if you care to get involved. One thing newcomers to vaping don't often think about are the kinds of batteries you use. If that sounds like you, read on...
Many vapers will be content to vape away their time with standard pre-built kits, and that's fine -there are many fantastic vape kits on the market to get you started. But after a while, the likelihood is that you'll want to tailor your experience somewhat to chase the hit. That's when you should starting thinking about 'modding'. Whether you're looking for mouth-to-lung, direct-to-lung, sub-ohm or a style of their own (check here for our guide on vaping techniques), it all starts with modding. Don't be intimidated though - modding is simply a case of combining various components to make a unique vape kit that isn't readily available off-the-shelf, and thousands of us do it. It's where the real fun starts.
Of all the things you can modify in your vape kit, not many people think about what vape battery they're going to use. You'd be forgiven for thinking that it wasn't too important - that all you had to worry about were wicks, coils and tanks, but you'd also be quite wrong. The battery is one of the most pivotal parts of the vaping experience.
To understand why, you need to get a little scientific. First, check the amperage of your vape battery. This effectively determines how much current the battery can output at any given time, commonly referred to as its 'load'. A big load (higher currents) will allow you to vape faster or take nice, long and slow draws to create maginificent clouds. If that's your goal, go for a high amperage. The other main number you need to understand is the mAh, or 'milli-amp hours'. This effectively determines the capacity of the battery and the amount of time it will last between charges. If you travel a lot and find yourself in need of powerpoints too often, a higher mAh battery will work wonders. They're usually slightly more expensive as vape batteries go, but the convenience is worth it if you're on the road a lot.
If you've gotten into a chat with some vaping mates at the bar, they've probably mentioned this vape battery to you at some point. Almost all vapers start with a built-in battery as part of a vape pen or similar. This is totally fine, but they will degrade over time and you'll eventually have to buy a new kit. The 18650 is gives you more control over your vape and is also detachable and replacable. The reason it's talked about so much is because it seems to have the right balance of mAh and amperage for most vapers at an attractive price point, and is often a good 'stepping stone' into the world of modding.
Are you new to vape mods? Perhaps you're a veteran and would like to share some information on vape battery choice and how to get the best experience? We'd love to hear from you in the comments below.
