How are the vapes themselves tested?
Good info to know though.

The lead can simply be from using glass with a high lead oxide content which makes the glass sparkle more due to higher light refraction. They know it is poisonous and they use it so their glass pieces photograph nicer.
Vapes are generally not tested by an outside authority but the ones that are reputable manufacturers use plastic types that are food safe and are designed to withstand higher temperatures. I will say that Arizer, a Canadian vape maker, is probably your best bet for a vape. I have used an Arizer Air for more than three years and it is reliable with very little cleaning of the actual vape involved. Clean the glass stems whenever they bug you but use a screen to keep crumbs out of the neck.
