Havnt been here in awhile. but my new hobbie got me thinking about you all again.

I recently started "vaping" using a electronic cigarette. It seems to me that its fundamentally the same as a flashlight. A power source targeting a point, to create heat in this case rather than light.

My question could a flashlight be modified to turn liquide into vaper the same as a E-cig. I know my 900 lumin light gets hot enough to steam moisture when it rains. My Zebra gets pretty hot when I use it a lot. Could a flashlight be modded to do this deliberately?

I dont have the tech /brain tools to do this myself. But we are going through atomizers (the heated element) a few a month at 7 to 10 bucks a crack. couldn't you do the same thing with a light that would have a life to dwarf the current design?
