VUSE Altos, like many vape devices, are primarily made from materials such as plastic, glass, and small amounts of metal. While they do contain some metal components, such as internal wiring and battery contacts, the overall detection ability of a metal detector depends on several factors including the sensitivity of the detector and the size of the metal parts.

In general, here is a common understanding:

1. Metal Composition: VUSE Altos contain some metal, which can be detected by sensitive metal detectors.
2. Size of Components: The small amount of metal in a vape device may not always trigger a metal detector, especially if the detector is not highly sensitive.
3. Type of Metal Detector: Some metal detectors are designed to detect larger metal objects or are tuned to specific types of metals. A more sensitive detector may pick up smaller metal components.

In conclusion, while there is a possibility that VUSE Altos can be detected by metal detectors, it may depend on the specific metal detector used and the sensitivity settings.
