But have you seen the size of the battery packs necessary for those items, Chrissie? We have a cordless drill on the park, it's a big square battery pack.
If I was thinking of vaping, and had a pacemaker, I would visit my GP, or the Cardiac unit where I was fitted with it, and ask? Maybe you could suggest this to the lady next time you visit Tescos? Or anybody visiting their GP could ask as a matter of research?

Surely the most hefty e-cig has a fraction of the battery power of a cordless drill or suchlike ???
My gut feeling is that e-cigs are no threat to pacemakers - but of course gut feelings aren't good enough.

We're told it's devices with a motor which can cause probs to pacemakers.....it's the motor that creates the electro-magnetic field... i think ecigs would be perfectly safe
