A QUESTION TO DAVID FROM GUOVAPE REGARDING THE ALTUS

I was playing devil’s advocate a bit today and posed a question to David from Guo Vape regarding the Altus. He’s been very forthright in answering my questions, which I certainly appreciate, and has allowed me to share this with you.

I invite you to draw your own conclusions…

Hate to play devil’s advocate David, but how is it that you can claim it’s safer without MSDS sheets, inhalations studies, and side by side comparisons between this and how we vape today.

I ask, because people will ask me.

I know you continue to speak about “pharmaceutical companies for medical applications” but that’s not our application. For example, in the medical world there are titanium implants, but we don’t want to over heat titanium wire in our application and breath it in.

David’s Response…

Hi Phil,

I respect you more because you do that. I mention pharmaceutical companies because
they are using it in medical applications.
I believe that it really doesn’t take testing for people to understand why we say what
we say.

All coils oxidize and degrade at a lower temperature than our material, which is
formed at over 2000C. At that temperature, all impurities are burnt off. The
tungsten is completely sealed off inside in a thin layer in the very middle, which
is protected by ~0.5 mm of high quality ceramic on each side. Anything below that
temperature will not even damage the surface, because tungsten has even a higher
melting point at 3422C. Tests were done with this technology in which 100C to 400C
transitions were achieved in 2 seconds and the part held for hundreds of thousands
of cycles. Now our CVU design is more robust than this part that I’m talking about.

You can’t say that about coils. Steel melts at 1510C, nickel at 1455C, and titanium
at 1668C. This means they oxidize at much lower temperatures. People are smoking in
rust and have been doing it for years and are ok with it. Finally we have something
far superior. I don’t need tests to tell me these things, because I know the
stringent process in which the CVU is made and the common data available to all of
us about coils.

Sometimes, I understand and explain things at a theoretical level (still based on
facts I know), so I seem to be making claims to people. Having said that, we care
about our customers and their concern is my concern. That’s why I chose to disclose
so much information, even if by doing so I am diminishing our business returns in
the future. That’s ok with us, because money is not everything. We are dealing with
people’s lives here.

Best regards,
David Guo
