1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

I've just seen a Thai person vaping....

    Every time you see a Thai person out vaping pop a comment down below...

    Don't think I'll be commenting much though... :rolling laugh:

    They are out there

    See them in the most unlikely places.

    Last one seen Mall Bangkapi Smoking Corner on the parking deck.

    There have to be some serious vapours around - the Dotmod mech bling thing for THB 60'000 was sold within days. Wouldn't want to be caught outside with that.

    I live in a rural town and it's quite common. I've been told, by Thai friends, its safe to vape in front of the popo up here, but never tested it. Just because its safe for a Thai to do it doesn't necessarily mean that's true for farangs. I will say the only times I see Thais vaping in public is at night, in a group, while drinking and eating. That's not to say they don't do it during the day. I've just not seen it.

    I too live in a small village. Vaping is a non-issue. Many do it, including myself, in public, nobody cares. Vaped in front of police during Songkran, they could care less.

    The tourist areas of Thailand are a different story evidently. I don't have anything to add regarding that because I don't ever go.

    My daughter's boyfriend and pals vape quite openly in and around their flat complex in Phitsanulok. Have a guy downstairs selling cheap Malay e-juice as well.
    **Updated**
    The issue I have is that it is quite common for these guys between 13 - 18 y.o. to vape a bit over-the-top. They are extrememly nicotine dependant very quickly as the vape tricks are their challenge throughout the day... but then again, better than having them suck on them cancer sticks called cigarettes..

    As You, I and some friends are living in little villages (of Isan).We are mixing for convenience and enjoy, we recoil mainly, vaping is not a real problem. Thai people normally don't care even some policeman or army vape. I just vape carefully in the main cities. I known that is quite different in BKK, touristic places, even Chiang mai , I don't vape in public.

    I was driving through Nakhorn Nowhere in deepest darkest Isaan when I saw Khun Somchai on his motocy sat vaping at a traffic light. First thing I noticed was a huge pastry flavored vapor cloud emanating from his head and then the very technical looking device in his fist. Oh the joys of rural Thailand.
