Burning in my throat

[Jeremy Mayfield]

Okay I need everyones help. I just got a ijust starter kit by eleaf and I just bought some mango oil last night and ever since I changed oils I've been having this burning pain every time I hit it. Is something wrong!?

According to specs your iJust comes with a 0.3 ohm coil and it's an unregulated mod so you have no control over how much power it puts out. That leaves your "oil" that you put into the tank. Is it really oil that you got or is it e-liquid? Where did you purchase this? If you actually got e-liquid at a store that sells vaping gear, then what is the nicotine level and what is the PG/VG ratio of both liquids? These things will make a difference.

Like Tam asked is it "Oil"? If so, stop vaping it! Any kind of "oil" base flavoring is bad to vape. It will build up in your lungs and will not be absorbed by your lungs.

This is a shot in the dark but is the mango oil you are trying to vape a premixed ejuice or is it pure flavoring? If it is pure flavoring you need to mix it with VG or PG before vaping it. Ejuice should not contain more than 20% to 25% flavoring.

Also like Comp said if it contains oil don't vape it.

Actually Comp..., it will be absorbed by the lung tissue (similar to digestion from the stomach) and passed harmlessly through the bloodstream to be excreted by the kidneys or colon... but it does take at least 72 hours from the time it hits the lungs, depending on the size, consistency, etc., unlike how fast the stomach will digest or pass. 

The same principal occurs when you inhale food particles (when eating), dust, or other contaminants from normal breathing... these things don't build-up over your lifetime and stop lung function   I remember an instance while working in the ER many years ago... a child had choked and inhaled a large chunk of a food (hamburger if I recall)... They called in a lung specialist, and he did nothing but prescribe an inhaler (to keep the lungs more open while healing) and asked the parents to monitor the child's activity levels... He said the "debris" would be completely absorbed by the lung in about a week through normal metabolic function...

I'm going by what I have known since I started making e-liquids. I was always told that the lungs can't absorb it and I can see how that could be miss understood. I'm no doctor so I can only go by what I have read. Like other things when it comes to vaping myths, I could be 100% off the mark. I prefer not to take the chance. However, I can see where if takes 72 hours to absorb it, someone vaping it all day every day, would have issues over time. Just saying

I have done a lot of research in flavorings, and have found that a lot of flavorings that are called oils actually contain little or no oil. Most food flavorings contain a PG base or a water and alcohol base, some have all three. Using a non FDA approved food flavor for vaping is not recommended, preferably the flavoring in ejuice should be approved for vaping if there is such a thing as vaping approved flavor. There are oil based flavors but they are mostly used for aromatic purposes like in candles and stuff like that and should not be used for vaping. 

Just my opinion

People vaping cannabis refer to "vaping oils" which contain thc.  My guess is it's not eliquid and he's vaping it at too high a temp.

Vape through the burn. If it hurts, vape harder. If it still hurts, add more "oil". Cloud champs aren't born, they're made.

Agreed... best to err on the side of caution
