I see commercials for them, but is their second hand 'smoke' safe? Everything that I have read about them is pretty ambiguous in that regard.

Seeing how the carrier fluid is propylene glycol, there is nothing too toxic about them. At least not compared to may other airborne contaminates. The carrier fluid contains nicotine that is vaporized and thus inhaled. There are no tars or other toxic gases released

My wife moved over to them about a year ago. The house smells MUCH better and there is much left 'dust' and such in the computer cases. I much prefer them to the real thing (speaking as a non-smoker).

She tried to quit using various aids. She had HORRIFIC nightmares and othe side effects. She was actually afraid to go to sleep. She found the smokeless cigarettes soon aftwerwards.

So that is what these sensors on the Akula were for!


I wonder if our Vodka detecting sensor net is still in operation?
