5 Myths about Disposable Vapes You Must Know

Vaping is the new fad of our generation. This topic has become our daily attraction whether we read it in newspapers, on billboards or while surfing social media. There are thousands of such stories floating around which are hard to believe.

There are so many myths that people have heard about disposable vapes that we want to debunk in this guide.

Myth 1. Disposable Vapes Are Costlier Than Traditional Cigarettes

People always compare old vs new technology. The discussion of comparing traditional cigarettes with disposable vapes is also at its peak. Because some vape brands are more expensive than traditional cigarettes, it doesn't mean that purchasing disposable vapes is a budget breaker. In fact, if you are an avid smoker, spending on a quality disposable vape device is much better than buying 5 to 10 traditional cigarettes. Spending on disposable vapes can be worth it as you can experience the same sensations of smoking within budget.

Myth 2. Disposable Vapes Contain Harmful Chemicals Like Traditional Cigarettes

Vape juice or e-liquid is used in a disposable vape device that heats up and generates vapor. Several articles on the Internet have outlined that vaporizing e-liquids is the cause of a rare condition called Popcorn lung. This article was based on a survey that was conducted by testing some e-liquid samples, 51 of which contain diacetyl as the main ingredient. This chemical was used in food production to give a butter-like taste to foods.

The truth is that e-liquid brands are no longer allowed to use diacetyl in the e-liquid. There are millions of vapers all over the world and they inhale the vapor from the e-liquid and none of them is caught by the popcorn lung because of the vapor so far.

Basically, e-liquid contains PG (propylene glycol), VG (vegetable glycerin), nicotine, flavour and water. The concentration ratio of all these ingredients varies from brand to brand. Many e-liquid brands also do not contain nicotine.

Myth 3. Disposable Vapes Can Explode in Your Face 

It is certain that when someone throws a bottle of lighter fluid over the chimney, it explodes. No one will do this in their full senses and make sure to use such equipment in a proper way. There are many people who replace e-liquid and use batteries that are not suitable for particular vape products. It is hassle-free to deal with all such accessories with disposable vapes. A user can enjoy the device till it runs out and can be easily disposed of.

Buying a high-quality device is important when planning to buy a disposable vape. Be sure to buy disposable vapes from a trusted company and follow all safety measures.

Myth 4. Disposable Vapes Are Not Safe as They Don’t Label Ingredients 

If you are buying a disposable vape device from any online or offline store and they do not highlight its contents, do not buy from that place. This is because, by law, all disposable devices are required to have their ingredients on their device. They also mention the weightage and brief about the product in the description. After that, you can do your research to understand what they are and how they work with the aim of purchasing a safe and quality vape product.

Myth 5. Disposable Vapes Can Cause Cancer 

There is no scientific confirmation that proves the statement to be true. Disposable vapes do not contain tobacco, which means there are no harmful chemicals that can cause any such disease. A 2015 report by Public Health England suggests that vaping is 95% safer than smoking tobacco.

For now, no one can claim that vaping can be just as harmful as smoking cigarettes in the long run. It has been concluded that vaping is less harmful than smoking tobacco cigarettes. Otherwise, there is no evidence to prove that disposable vapes can cause cancer so far.

To Sum Up, 

Several bloggers have also alleged that disposable vape companies tempt non-smokers to start vaping. They further added that vape companies target teenagers and try to attract them by promoting products with colourful packaging, scented flavours and comfortable shapes.

What else can they allege? If you too are believing all such myths, it's time to break the cast of mind and look forward to disposable vape devices.
