At the BBKA convention I was talking to one of the researchers from LASI who recommend OA vaporisation.
He warned me that some people are being rather casual about safety when handling OA.
You should wear safety goggles, gloves and an approved respirator even when handling and weighing it out, and especially when vaping it. Turning your head and hoping the wind doesn't change direction is not enough!
It's very toxic.
I bought some from the WBKA convention. It was sealed and wrapped in a carrier bag. I could still taste it on my lips as I wrapped it in a second carrier bag.
I look like I'm clearing toixc waste when I use it. Full face mask, chemical gloves etc
