If you dont have enough room in the freezer....

The inhalator appears to only contain nicotine and menthol, that is all that is mentioned on the pack. There is no throat hit though. There is 15mg of nicotine held in a porous plug in the cartridge. No fancy mechanism, you simply inhale the fumes from that. But its odd because it is definitely the nicotine in e cig vapour that gives the throat hit, as no nicotine e liquid has no throat hit.

They recommend sucking on it for periods of 10 mins at a time. Each 15mg cartridge lasts 40 mins of inhaling.

The nicotine is absorbed thorugh the lining of the mouth, so i guess it is tiny droplets being sucked in, that never reach the back of the throat at all. Whereas the ecig vapour disperses the nicotine enough within the vapour, to be able to reach the back of the throat when inhaled.

I was looking at the ingredients in a well known brand of NRT, that make a quick mist NRT spray.

It surprised me in fact, but also seems to demonstrate that e cig vapour may be less worrying to inhale than even the current NRT on the market.

Here is a list of ingredients in each....i know which one i would prefer to inhale

NRT Spray
Propylene Glycol
Anhydrous Ethanol
Trometamol
Poloxamer 407
Glycerol
Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate
Levomenthol
Flavours
Sucralose
Acesulfame Potassium
Hydrochloric Acid
Water
Nicotine

Propylene glycol
Glycerine
Water

Nicotine

The EU legal committee voted against the legislation on the basis that it would be illegal. The comment made by Sir Francis Jacob QC, former Advocate-General to the European Court of Justice, was that the proposed ban was "an unreasonable measure which is liable to be annulled as being contrary to the principle of proportionality and/or the principle of non-discrimination. "

this prinicipal of proportionality...it is like taking a sledge hammer to crack an egg type scenario. My brother (he studied eu law, so i asked him about this) says this is the important point, that the legislation is going too far by effectively removing all ecigs off the market, that is contrary to the principle of proportionality, this is what would be illegal about the legislation.

That the EU legal committee voted against the legislation is good news at least.

Something else you could try is unflavoured e liquid, you have already tried switching from PG to AG, if you think you may be sensitive to an ingredient in e liquid, then to continue with the process of elimination, it may be worth trying e liquid minus the flavour concentrate, just to see if that helps.

Its actually (imo) just as satisfying and has an added bonus of being the kindest to your atomiser, making it last for ages.

I just read the article...it is annoying some of the nonsense that people who are quoted as being knowledgable say in such articles. For example, Sheila Duff the Chief Executive of ASH is quoted as saying that "smokers will simply swap one addiction for another — albeit a “safer” one."

I am pretty sick of the hypocrisy that the anti vapers demonstrate. Whilst they like to use inflammatory terms with negative connotations when speaking of vapers habits, I wonder how they would feel were we to describe their morning coffees as addictions and suggest that their cups of tea should be medically assessed and regulated, to ensure that their blood concentrations of caffeine werent being over done, suggesting that they were too stupid to regulate their own consumption.

I am all for people being healthy and clean living, but I want the choice and unless the government pull tobacco off the shelves, then everything being planned for ecigs is just pure hypocrisy. All these lies about caring about the countries health, the MRHA being involved, if these anti vapers care so much and that is the reason they claim they are taking action to curb e cigs, then why are tobacco cigarettes still on the shelves? It is clear hypocrisy.
