[QUOTE="Tanis143, post: 3269616, member: 43724"] That study was debunked. They basically held down the firing button for way too long, this vaporized all the liquid from wicking material, fried the first layer of the wick and allowed the metal to get cherry hot. This caused the release of the metals. When used properly the heat energy is transferred from the metal to the wick which vaporizes the liquid. Short bursts of this allows ample time for the liquid to rewick from either the tank or juice well. The heating element never gets hot enough to cause metal flaking. This is the same problem with the formaldehyde scare, the scientists doing that study didn't know how to use an ecig and basically burned the crap out of the wicks in the atomizer, causing the release of large amounts of formaldehyde. This was proven to be an error on their part in two or three subsequent studies. When used properly the vapor has very minute amount of particles that can be considered dangerous. Often times in amounts lower than the surrounding air. [/QUOTE]
