1. A substance inhalation apparatus, comprising:
at least one inhalation chamber having at least one inlet port; a first supply system comprising a vape box supply system for supplying a first vaporized test liquid to the at least one inlet port;
wherein the vape box supply system comprises a vape box configured to vaporize a first test liquid to produce the first vaporized test liquid that is mixed with pressurized air and enters the at least one inlet port via a first supply path when the vape box is on and which supplies pressurized air only to the inhalation chamber when the vape box is off;
a second supply system comprising a first heater unit, a first mixing chamber mounted to the first heater unit, a first heater controller, and a second supply path for supplying a second vaporized test liquid to the at least one inlet port, wherein the second vaporized test liquid is different from the first vaporized test liquid and
wherein the at least one inhalation chamber comprises an outlet port connected to a vacuum source;
wherein the vape box comprises an e-vape unit comprising: an atomizer; at least one vape cartridge having a first end connected to the atomizer and a second end, the at least one vape cartridge containing a mixture of test substance and carrier liquid; and wherein the first supply path comprises a first inlet end connected to the second end of the vape cartridge, a second inlet end connected to a pressurized air supply, and an outlet end communicating with the first inlet end and the second inlet end and connected to the at least one inlet port of the at least one inhalation chamber, wherein the first vaporized test liquid comprises a vapor infused with the test substance, whereby the vapor infused with the test substance and pressured air are drawn in to the at least one inhalation chamber by the vacuum source when the e-vape unit is turned on and only pressurized air is drawn into the chamber when the e-vape unit is turned off.
