Do you own the WPA? I only use the TM with J-Hook or through water otherwise warm vapor gives me some level of discomfort
I don't, never run any vapes through water. It's just not my style and as I´m always on the go it becomes kind of hard.
I think some of us are trying to sort out whether your issue has to do with the style often needed for convection vapes - they require longer, mostly continuous inhales, where something like a Mighty can be hit by sipping for shorter (or longer) hits. Is it this difference, or is it a hot vapor or dryness that give you asthma troubles?
I'm not asthmatic, but I have had to try a bunch of different vapes (for less coughing), to land recently on a Bowle, which I've been loving. (I've not tried a TM yet, I leaned toward the Bowle for my most recent purchase...)
I believe it has to do with the need of longer continuous inhales combined with the dryness and harshness of the vapor from the TM that immediately makes my throat close up.
Thanks for the tip, will have to look up bowls and see what kind of vape it it. Leaning towards an Arizer Air 2 atm
I, an asthmatic myself, cannot confirm this at all.
OK, I love my WPA+Bong for one particular strain (Alien Dawg), but with all other strains I have no problems at all with the TM.
Quite the contrary, my asthma has even improved (proven by lung function test) while using the TM every day!
(clinical improvement due to the above-mentioned strain, not only the TMs merit, just as a side note).
Maybe you react to the pollen itself and should use a water-bubbler/filter?
Or just vaping too hot?
Well I think it depends on what kind of asthma you have I guess, are you chronically asthmatic? Or only when you have a cold? Do you get asthma from being active? There are a lot of factors to factor in starting with your own health and then all other factors as herd, dryness of the herb and what not. To each their own, my asthma just gets worse while and after using the TM.
Nice to hear your asthma has improved, I still score 210-190 on the PEF test same as when I was a teen. Don't have any negative experiences with other vapes that I only run dry (no water), the TM is the only one that has given me issues so far except a G-Pen that I bought while on vacation and threw away after one day of trying to use it.
EDIT -- OP and MODS excuse the back to back posts was just replying to everyone and didn't reflect on the multiple posts...
