I'm getting tempted to pull the cotton out of the trident, open the regulator on the oxygen bottle and test all this out.......if .3ohm coils wont cause ignition, a looky likey certainly didn't. At least not on its own......

Erm, just in defence of the nursing/ medical staff here. I will just add into the mix that unless the hospital has a clearly defined policy on e cigs that has clearly identified vaping as a potential risk, most staff would not be aware of the dangers .Yes, -we know there is a red hot coil inside an ecig, but a non vaper wouldn't..

Even when a hospital has an ecig policy in place, I suspect that the decision has been made purely based on the smoke/vape debate.

You're more technically proficient than I am, gords. I'm just a dick with an opinion. Take care.

Good point. I'm just surprised it's allowed that's all, wouldn't have thought it.

If you do be care full lol. Be interesting to see the results lol. But you would need protective gloves, goggles, facemask, an encounter suit, a fire extinguisher (halon preferable), the brigade on stand by and for good measure a lightly warmed cup of tea for nerves as hot can cause injury. Also a clean pair of shorts in case of accidental soiling. As this would need to be full h/s compliant. In the interest of science of course

I like how we ( the vapists ) get riduculed over 1 person that obviously has no common sense.

I was in hospital a few months back and asked the nurse if i could vape in the ward she said it was fine. So not to take the piss i didnt blow massive clouds and people in the bays next to me were saying

wow thats a nice smell whats that? so had a good chat and they tried it now they are vaping themselfs lol

Who wants to bet that the media will twist this boeing 777 sinking due to a ecig receipt?? hahaha
