My friend just recently acquired what appears to be a .... ton of new juice from "High Voltage Vapors". This juice has the claim about being caffeine infused. My first question is that is it just a scam, or do they legitimately infuse caffeine? And if they do, is it potentially dangerous? The idea of inhaling caffeine seems to raise a red flag for me. However, if the amount of caffeine is minuscule, maybe it's not any more unhealthy than other juices. Thoughts?

It's a scam. This topic has come up in the past, and a chemist stated that caffeine can not be vaporized at the temperatures that our personal vaporizers use. The caffeine in the e-liquid will merely remain behind in the tank. So, if you are paying more than normal prices for caffeine infused e-liquids, you are wasting your money. Also, any so-called "effect" you may feel from vaping these liquids is merely a placebo effect.

I'm actually really excited to hear that. I was gonna try out some of the flavors that he got, but the caffeine thing was definitely discouraging. As long as I'm not inhaling that ...., I'm willing to give it a go. as I've discovered, caffeine not ingested has a pretty crappy effect. Thank you.

Also caffeine has a horrid bitter taste. If they are adding caffeine the juices couldn't be all that good tasting. Even a fraction of a percent added to eliquid turns the juice very bitter. I can't imagine the taste :eek:.
Oh my god, worst tasting stuff ever. A friend had pure caffeine powder and the taste nearly made me throw up. Can't imagine it tasting good in any juice

Marketing hype.

Check caffeine on wikipedia - solubility in water depends on the temperature of said water. Solubility in PG and VG is ho-hum at best.
Word has it, that upto 15mg/ml caffeine is doable, higher than that it's bound to re-cristallize in your liquids.

Have a decent mug of coffee along with your vape - gets you the best of both worlds :)
