The recent cases of lung illness related to smoking THC oil cartridges are a serious cause for concern. It is very important to note that while there is cause for concern, the media and CDC are getting this issue wrong. The cause of the outbreak seems more connected to smoking THC oil than vaping. Vaping an e-cigarette is not the issue. Again, this does not appear to be a vaping issue! It is the THC oil. And that is why Mig Vapor is issuing a consumer alert.

DO NOT USE THC OIL CARTRIDGES
THIS WARNING INCLUDES CARTRIDGES BOUGHT OFF THE STREETS AND THOSE FROM DISPENSARIES
THC OIL CARTRIDGES BURN THE OIL, THE END PRODUCT IS NOT A PURE VAPOR. THE USER IS SMOKING THC OIL
UNTIL THE EXACT CAUSE IS IDENTIFIED, USE DRY HERB CANNABIS WITH A DRY HERB VAPORIZER
IDEALLY, VAPORIZE ORGANICALLY GROWN LEGAL CANNABIS!
As of September 7, 2019, approximately 450 people have required medical attention for lung illness. Most of the patients are young males and were using THC oil cartridges. The pneumonia-like illness is not related to vaping electronic cigarettes. So far, the common denominator appears to be THC oil. Initially, all of the cases seemed to point to illegal THC oil made by street dealers. But with the most recent loss of life attributed to oil from a legal dispensary, Mig Vapor is advising all THC oil vapers to stop using THC oil until the root cause is determined and corrective actions have been taken.

Use Dry Herb Vaporizers Instead Of Oil Cartridges

Mig Vapor Khan dry herb vaporizer heating chamber. By using a vaporizer, the active ingredients are vaporized directly from the herb. You do not need to use a processed and potentially dangerous oil. Use a dry herb vaporizer.

Any time that cannabis is purchased off the street, there is a risk that the leaves may have been treated with unknown pesticides that pose a risk to the user. That is why dry herb cannabis should be purchased only from a legal dispensary. Smoking cannabis wastes a significant amount of the plant. Not to mention that inhaling smoke is never a good idea. Instead, use a dry herb vaporizer.

A Mig Vapor vaporizer produces vapor, not smoke.
Mig Vapor uses advanced heating technology so that no metal comes in contact with and burns the dry herb.
It is recommended that legal cannabis consumers refrain from using THC oils until further notice. For the time being, use a dry herb vaporizer.
Dry herb flower vaporizers are very efficient and some models offer the ability to control the intensity of a vape session.
By using a dry herb vaporizer, the user is able to access the active ingredients of the herb. With an oil, the process of making a plant into an oil can involve solvents, lighter fluid, and other unknown agents. Until such time that the THC oil issue is fully resolved, cannabis users are strongly advised to use a dry herb vaporizer.

Vaporizer Options
Mig Vapor offers several hand held flower vaporizers to choose from. There is an option for every budget. Our vaporizers employ proprietary technology and offer outstanding efficiency, flavor, and vapor. The Mig Vapor ceramic heating system ensures that no metal comes in contact and burns the herb. You can even find Mig Vapor vaporizers that allow for precise temperature control to control the intensity of the vape session.

Top Rated Dry Herb Vaporizers and Vape Pens
For legal cannabis users that are accustomed to using oils, the expectation is for a fast, and intense sensation. However, the idea that a dry herb vaporizer cannot deliver a fast, intense session is incorrect. Not to mention the improved flavor from a herbal, flower vaporizer. Particularly, I am referring to temperature control dry herb vaporizers. With precision temperature control, the user can dictate the intensity of the session. The higher the temperature, the more intense and concentrated the vapor.

And vapor is the key word when talking about dry flower vaporizers and vape pens. Unlike oil cartridges, many of which burn the oil, a vaporizer actually vaporizes. As is vaporizes the active ingredients of your herb. Although it is true that some vaporizers can burn the material, that is not the case with Mig Vapor devices. The difference between Mig Vapor and the other herbal devices is the heating technology. With our vaporizers, the herb never comes in contact with any metallic heating element. The end result is true vaporization complete with a full flavor profile and incredibly efficient use of your expensive herb. In other words, Mig Vapor vaporizers get the most out of your favorite strain.

The Mig Vapor Khan
The Mig Vapor Khan is our newest vaporizer. The 0.5 gram heating chamber is the biggest of any hand held vaporizer of its kind. Additionally, the glass vapor path is isolated to help keep the airflow cool. The vapor does not touch metal once it leaves the heating chamber. The flavor is spectacular. And the precision temperature control opens the door to an intensity level that some say is better than THC oil.

The temperature control option provides the option of a session intensity that rivals if not exceeds oils and concentrates. The beauty of the Khan is that even at high temperatures with full on intensity, the vapor pathway design cools the vapor. The bottom line is that if you likes THC carts because of the intensity, you can get a similar and likely better hit off of the Khan. And of course, without the mess and additives of THC oil.

The Mig Vapor Dray
Like the Mig Vapor Khan, the Dray dry portable vaporizer offers precision temperature control. The Dray brings the intensity on command. Or it can be soft and mellow. It is up to you. The Dray is a genuinely beautiful vaporizer. The wedge lipped heating chamber makes it very easy to maintain. Powered by an 1800 mAh battery, the Dray can provide multiple, lengthy, and luxurious sessions. By the way, that high capacity battery is also why the Dray can bring the heat for extended intense sessions. A textured grip and thin profile make the Dray easy to carry and handle.

Smallest Dry Herb Vape Pen. Less Than $60!
Another reason that some people enjoy using a THC vape oil pen is because it is small and stealthy. Dry herb vaporizers tend to be larger devices that are more conspicuous. So if you like to use THC oil carts because of size and portability, you can get the smallest dry herb vape pen and not worry about the mess or risks of THC oil. The Mig Vapor Herb-e is the smallest dry herb vape pen. And it is an absolute marvel.

Can I Use THC Oil With A Nail?
Whether you are heating THC oil with a nail, oil cart, or any heat source the result is the same. The contaminants in the oil will be in the aerosol. You can use a dab rig nail kit like the Mig Rig with a dispensary oil that you know to be trustworthy. We sell dab pen THC cartridges at Mig Vapor. In fact, we can confidently tell you that our oil carts are extremely good quality, unlike the junk cartridges China is dumping on the US market for 70 cents a piece. Those are garbage and probably unsafe. But overall, we will lose business but we have to stick with our overall recommendation of not using THC oil at all until we fully understand the root cause of the recent outbreak.

I Have Been Using THC Oil For Years, What Is Different Now?
That is exactly what we need to find out. THC oil has been used in oil cartridges and nails for a long time. There will be a way to resolve the problem and pin point exactly what is causing the issue. But until that time, do not use dab pen THC cartridges. Use flower with a dry herb vaporizer.

With that said, we must add that many dispensaries continue to sell THC oil pen cartridges with no problem. For example, Vireo New York is a legal dispensary that sells tens of thousands of THC oil cartridges without any problems reported.

The tragic case of the instance of dispensary oil leading to illness could be an outlier. It could be that the dispensary in question bought a supply from a street dealer. We just do not have all the answers right now. Out of an abundance of caution, we recommend suspending use of THC oil carts for the time being.

Chinese Product Dumping Of THC Dab Pen Cartridges
One thing that may have changed recently is the huge amount of cheap, low quality oil cartridges Chinese companies dump on the US market. Shady manufacturers that have no accountability and cannot even be traced are selling oil carts for 70 cents a piece. In turn, these carts are being sold online for about $3. Here’s what you need to know. Although the cheap cartridges are called oil vape cartridges, they do not vaporize. They burn. They are made as cheaply as possible. In fact, testing has shown that THC oil has been contaminated by lead from cheap cartridges.

The Chinese product dumping may be contributing to the outbreak of lung illnesses attributed to vaping THC oil.

There is no sign of China slowing down product dumping. The tariffs on Chinese products will only encourage them to cut more corners and make things even more cheaply. Unless the FDA stops allowing the import of unregistered vapor products, American consumers will be at risk. This also applies to e-cigs. Cheap, high nicotine JUUL pod look-a-likes sold in C-stores nationwide. Product dumping hurts legitimate American e-cig companies and hurts American consumers.

Unknown Contaminants In THC Oil
vaping-deaths-from-contaminated-thc-dab-pen-cartridges

A suspected change in THC extraction by street dealers causes reason for suspicion. Street dealers use solvents such as lighter fluid to extract THC oil from cannabis. In addition, street dealers do not use any type of filtration before selling a product to unsuspecting consumers.

For many THC oil consumers, a thicker oil is more desirable than a thin oil. It seems that street dealers have caught on to this. As a result, unknown thickening agents are being used for street oil and black market oil cartridges. It is the thickening agents that many believe responsible for the outbreak of lung illness.

Be aware that street oil and black market cartridges may come in commercial looking packaging. Illegal vendors are crafty and can easily make professional looking packaging to give a look of legitimacy.
Lung Illness From THC Oil
Over 400 people have required treatment for lung illness that seems to be connected to THC oil cartridge use. As mentioned, most of the victims have been young men with an average age of 19.

Typically, the symptoms show up within the same week of use. The symptoms include shortness of breath and other symptoms similar to pneumonia. In addition, 150 of the patients have required a respirator. Treatment consists of steroids to reduce inflammation. And permanent lung damage is a possibility.

If you or someone you know has used a THC oil cartridge and is experiencing any symptoms, particularly breathing symptoms, seek medical help immediately.
Do not hold back information from medical professionals. If you bought illegal THC oil, that pales in comparison to protecting your life. There is no reason to be ashamed. Tell the truth. Tell the doctors everything.
If you still have the oil cartridges that you were using, keep them and give them to the medical professionals.
Dry Herb Vaporizer Or THC Oil?
At the best of times, THC oil cartridges can be messy and inefficient. Moreover, oil carts often clog and actually burn the THC oil. The reason users like vaping THC oil is the intensity of the sensation. Though we understand that a dry herb vaporizer may be mellow in comparison to an oil cartridge, the fact of the matter is that advanced hand-held portable vaporizers like the Dray and the Khan allow temperature control. And with temperature control comes session control.

Dry herb vaporizers deliver intense sessions at higher temperature settings. In fact, with a dry herb vaporizer the user is able to exercise more control over the session. Plus, a vaporizer is a cleaner, more efficient means of enjoying legal cannabis. Ultimately, a vaporizer offers distinct advantages over oil carts. Consequently, even without the current crisis in confidence regarding THC carts, a vaporizer offers advantages that oils cannot.

Actually I wouldn't even try pure THC carts, mostly because of awful histerical effect THC provides with. Moreover, Tetrahydrocannabinol increases appetite and insomnia, affects psychics in the worst way. CBD and medical marijuana are much better in this sense, I prefer dried medical hemp with a dry herb vaporizer Yocan Evolve D .

I wanted to share some thoughts on the recent concerns about lung illnesses related to THC oil cartridges. Consider switching to a dry herb vaporizer instead of using THC oil cartridges. Dry herb vaporizers heat the cannabis directly without the need for processed oils, which might be safer.
