VAPOR TEST RESULTS BY KOREA ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE ASSOCIATION
The Korea Electronic Cigarette Association (KECA) ordered a test on the vapor produced by an electronic cigarette versus the smoke of a cigarette. In Korea, there have been so many incorrect reports and misinformation about electronic cigarettes. They conducted the test to prove that cigarettes are more harmful than e-cigarettes.
The KECA website shows the processes of the test.
What was tested: inhaled smoke.
How: By a scientific machine that reads the inhaled components.
Tested method: assuming 8 puffs per 1 cigarette VS 8 puffs on an e-cigarette, repeated 16 times and 24 times.
View the results of the vapor test below:
