I understand the poppers are highly flammable.

But I want to know is it the liquid that's flammable, the fumes, or both?

I'm building an electric poppers dispenser and mindful of there being the chance of a spark.

There is a tiny (but not 0%) chance of spark when the air pump engages due to electrics.

But that spark will be nowhere near the liquid, but I cannot guarantee the absence of fumes.

This old chestnut! The answer is...YES. Back in the day disco queens used to dip cigarettes in a poppers bottle...many accidents happened that way. Poppers are highly flammable in both liquid and air-born form. Back to the drawing board? Are you an inventor, PP?

I'd say more of a tinkerer haha

I'm going to use liquid latex to coat the electrical connectors, then seal off inside a junction box to prevent any chance of spark.

I will also isolate the poppers tank from the electrical side of things.

What would you advise?

You're an idiot if you think pumping air into a bottle of poppers is a good idea.

What's more...you understand NOTHING about electronics.

@PPig: a tinkerer...well my pipes are rusty from lack of attention, you are welcome to have a tinker anytime you please.

Poppers vending machines were around back in the day; guess they were mechanical though. I am not the person to ask about such things as I have difficulty changing a light bulb! Ppig was not proposing pumping air into a poppers bottle and I am sure his knowledge of thinks electronic and technical is just fine. Sounds like he is on top of this. Good luck!

Rosa Parks, who called you an idiot in your life when you didn't know something and asked for help?

No need to be insulting, hostile, and righteous, all while adding nothing of value.

Hope you heal that wound man. Life's too short to be so angry.

Thanks Rosa Klebb — yes that's correct, I'm not pumping air into a bottle of poppers but rather into a container holding popper vapors coming from cotton wool.

The air is pumped in via one tube, then sucked back out another, thus drawing the vapors through a vacuum into a mask.

I have been around poppers and flame (a room full of poppers and someone turned on a gas stove to cook), and nothing happened.

So I wasn't sure of HOW flammable they are, and in what level of concentration they'd need to be relative to the atmosphere.

I think I'm just going to put a small 12v fan in the setup to draw air out to avoid a buildup of vapor around the diaphragm pumps.

I *think* the chance of a spark is virtually nil once I seal up all the electronics in an air/water tight junction box, and cover the terminals with liquid electrical tape, but maybe not.

I could be wrong of course, hence why I'm sounding it out here and asking for perspective.

So if anyone would like to actually talk it out with me rather than just hurl abusive insults to mask their own insecurities, that would be great.

Rosa Parks: pump some air up your rectum and float away! rude mf! nicely put PPIG

You are going to die from cancer from consuming a product that is at most 1% pure. Enjoy that slow, painful death, retards!

@Rosa Parks — yup quite possibly. We will all die in the end from something.

I'll get cancer from poppers having a great old time, and you'll get cancer from holding onto all that anger and hate.

At least my way has some pleasure involved, but your way just seems sad and lonely. Life isn't against you man — it's you who is against life.

I hope you figure that out before you waste more of your life trying to control everyone and everything else but yourself.

RosaP did not read / comprehend the original post, got crazy, and started spitting wild prophecies of impending doom. Sound familiar? A certain flatulent geriatric who spends a lot of his time on golf courses, when not inciting riots, liaising with porn stars, cooking the books, or getting confused by reality?

I voted for a geriatric, but what does that matter! We stole the election with the likes of Dominion, two thousand mules, Ruby Freeman, Shae Moss, and a bunch of Soros-installed secretaries of state!
