They use Vitamin E in order to get the extremely potent THC levels. On some cartridges they get 90% + which is crazy considering the most potent Marijuana in Bud form is like 25% Apparently that is what the main issue is that when Vitamin E vaporizes and then cools it changes form and may be harmful. It didn't appear to be in the flavored Nicotine juices, only in the Marijuana concentrates.

That may well be part of the problem, but I don't think that's the full story. I was buying bud and grinding it myself.

This is a very misleading comment. Vitamin E acetate has nothing to do with the concentration of THC in the product. The addition of Vitamin E acetate to a THC product does not change the quantiy of THC in the product. The concentration of THC in the product is not "crazy", even considering the concentration of THC in bud - it's a concentrate, of course it has a higher concentration of THC. It has a higher concentration than bud because it doesn't have to carry the plant matter. This is like saying the concentration of vanillin in vanilla essence is "crazy" compared to the concentration in a vanilla bean. Additionally, the "products to avoid" link you have provided is NOT a list of products to avoid. Those images are for demonstration.
