I Just Figured Out Vaping Outside When It's Cold Doesn't Work So Well

My wife still smokes. Vaping did not work for her at all. In fact even my vaping in the same room with her makes her cough uncontrollably. Since she takes her smoking outside, it's only fair I do the same with my vaping. And I don't mind, but I've encountered a problem: When it's cold outside, as it is now, my nose stuffs up and I can't taste the juice!

And it's only early fall, yet.

Bah!

Try Quercetin, i have sinus problems this time of year too, couldn't do without it, but everyone a little different. it would be worth a try
It's not really sinus problems, per se, but just that my sense of smell is degraded in the cold.

That being said: I do have sinus issues during seasonal changes. I'll look into Quercetin. Thanks!

Maybe bump the watts on your mod by, say, 5 to 8 watts, see if that helps. Warm the vape up just a little, maybe it will hold its warmth a little longer.

That sucks!

How cold is it when it bothers you?

I don't know, exactly. Down around ±40°F, maybe? I think it's not just the cold. I think it's the cold, coupled with my nearly constant low-level sinus issues. Started on Flonase about a week ago. I think it's starting to kick in, because yesterday, all-of-a-sudden, I could taste Killer Kustard Strawberry well, again. I noticed that, coincidentally, my sinuses seems clearer than they had for a while.

Sorry, I've been a bit busy lately and didn't check back here til now.

Great to hear you are doing better @vuJim.

Yup, I thought it might be something other than the lower temperatures. I vape outside in temps down to around 5 deg F sometimes and though that has it's challenges, I manage it without loosing too much flavor.

Vape on Jim :cool:
