Hey Twoller,
Yeah, the vaporizers for pot have been around for years. Mostly made from a soldering iron and some blown glass.
You need almost twice the heat that the e-cig provides to even have a chance of using it for other than nicotine. THC boiling point is around 200C. So the drug use point is moot too.
This is about taxes and control...nothing else.
Even without a formal years-long study....it's pretty simple to see. Nicotine comprises less than 1% of a cigarette. E-cig users are cutting out 99% of the garbage...and just getting the nicotine (along with flavorings and PG). BTW: PG is a current ingredient in smoking tobacco, used to keep things at the proper moisture content....so it's not like smokers aren't already exposing themselves to it. PG is in my asthma inhaler as well....been using that for years.
Inhaled PG (propylene glycol...that stuff that makes fog in the fog machines) has been shown to have some beneficial properties as well...
They just want to stuff all of them in a box and put them in the warehouse along with the pee powered engine and my jetpack.
