How do I prevent the room from filling up so much that the smoke alarm goes off?

Guess Im no longer in the Matrix Steve :sad:... should have taken the blue pill
Did it happen again?

I think it would be me who was no longer in the Matrix and not you? Maybe you can Vape some of that Cailis e-Liquid instead of taking the blue pill?

Ok I'm back for suggestions. I bought this-


and it's working really well so far in tandem with my industrial fan blowing everything away from the smoke alarm. I've set it off once since I got the air purifier.

Right now my air purifier is placed near my command center (only the most amazing place to sit in the house with awesome lights, a pixelbook, cell phone stand with GPS to track everyone lol, just smart everything) and when I blow out the vapor I blow it in the direction of the air purifier. Is there an even better set up to help reduce the chance of setting off the smoke detector? Should I put it by the fan instead?

Comments please.

I don't know if you guys saw the question or if you're just a handful of Mesozoic fossils but I'm asking where I should place my air purifier in relation to my fan...

Setting off a smoke alarm? have a new goal. Lol.

I'm still trying to cloud out my living room. My smoke alarm is at the top of the stairs. So no chance of that going off

I usually mouth to lung in the house. Low wattage. Higher nic levels, not too big of clouds.

I'm a bit late to the party, but it sounds like you have a optical smoke detector, it uses a light beam and sets off an alarm when something (ideally smoke from a fire) breaks the beam of light. Unfortunately steam from cooking or fog from a shower or vaping can just as easily disrupt the beam of light. This style has been around a long time and is quicker at detecting fires due to it's higher sensitivity.

Ionization smoke detectors are more accurate at detecting just smoke but not as fast as optical detectors. They have 2 chambers where ions are released into the air, one closed and one open to the environment. Ions attach to the smoke particles in the open chamber and causes an alarm to sound due to the difference in the ions in the chambers. I've had a friend over and we had the room dense with fog, but the smoke detector right outside the door didn't go off, even stood near it vaping many times with no alarm. But accidentally burn something on the kitchen stove down the hallway and the detector goes off despite there not being any visible smoke. Can get pretty cheap disposable 10 year detectors at wal-mart. Mount them, then 10 years later replace them when the internal battery starts to die.
