Isn't this just a nebulizer hooked up to an oxygen concentrator?
Are their any studies done on vaporized alcohol? It takes 20 mins to inhale a single shot from this machine, how could it get you "more drunk" then simply drinking the shot? Is less alcohol lost in this process? Is there any proof this machine works at all?
I've never had a hangover, period. This may be because I drink about as much water as I do alcohol when I go out drinking. It is my understanding that a hangover can be prevented simply by staying hydrated and drinking alcohol in moderation. -- Twavith, Unregistered 05:39, 2 March 2008 (EST)
Also, am I the only one who thinks that oxygenated ethanol just sounds like a fire hazard waiting to happen? -- Mdwyer 03:52, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Arnt nebulisers pretty wastefull, the amount of alcohol lost on the way to your lungs would be pretty high. 87.194.30.174 ( talk) 01:19, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
We do need a cocaine cola beverage { cocaine cola beverage} article.
Thank You.

It says its been banned in 21 states on this article. Source? On their website it says it's legal (for ages 21+): http://www.awolmachine.com/page-4.htm —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.2.234.66 ( talk) 20:16, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
The article was originally titled "Alcohol without liquid", which was based on the name of the original AWOL device. During the course of the AfD discussion it was changed to Alcohol inhalation. Shortly thereafter it was changed again, to "Inhalation of alcohol vapor". I personally thought "Alcohol inhalation" was a better title and I would like to see it changed back to that.

After actually trying it (though I seem to be late for the popularity and backlash wave) it's really easy to see how the few sources talked about this are grossly over-dramatic.
I bought the "Vape Shot", a handheld air pump that you shove in the top of a 2-liter bottle, in which you put a small amount of your chosen liquor - but it sure better be strong! Why? Because what they don't tell you is a whole breath-full of vapor is really weak. This must be the big realization people have before ditching it, propelling it into obscurity - in fact I've never been successfully able to feel anything from vaping before giving up. The idea that it's "dangerous" actually gives it way too much credit.
The idea that this would ever be illegal somewhere just goes to show the FUD worked. But where's the science?
Speaking of which, I'd love for this article to show some science on the subject of turning alcohol into vapor - the interesting part, not just stuff about health risks. Some interesting things to ask/answer:
