    Nicely done! That’s how vapes should be used; as a means of harm reduction/tapering off, not as a ‘healthy’ replacement as some people view them to be.

      They’re still healthier than cigarettes (just because you’re not breathing combusted organic matter) so if every smoker switched to vapes then we’d be in a better place. The only issue I have is the huge uptake of vaping among young people who wouldn’t otherwise have smoked.

        That’s what I meant by harm reduction.

        Another big problem with vaping is electronic waste/pollution (especially with the cheap disposables).

        You also have to worry about cheap atomizers leeching heavy metals into the vapor.
