My only worry is that once they start regulating things, they'll fuck up non disposables too somehow. Like they did with the max nicotine level and the tank capacity.
It's really confusing. I swear they all used to be reusable with refill bottles, then at some point they just changed to disposable.
Honestly, you would think it would be easy to push refillables... like that would sell just fine. My suspicion is, like ink printers, they don't want people using other liquids.
That would be the concern. The "for the children" argument is often how governments open the door; after they establish a precedent (disposables are bad) they can start scaling up to other aspects using the same argument.
"Children are buying vape stuff in pretty colors!" "Children like the pretty vapor!" Etc.
Well, they do have batteries so, yeah. That's the issue I have with them: they're made of a finite, fairly precious and environmentally damaging material but the manufacturers specifically sell them as disposable. At least a McDonalds carton dumped on the roadside will dissolve to harmless mush in a few months, but disposable vapes won't; they're going to landfill, or down drains into rivers, or exploding in compactors and the manufacturers know it.
They’re really handy in a pinch but some people seem to only buy disposables. If you’re going to start vaping then you’re much better off getting a proper battery rather than burning through disposables.
I've become pretty convinced over the last few years they should just clamp down on all non-refillable devices. I have a feeling this would stop a lot of teen vaping, because messing about with coils and liquids takes any glamour out of the thing
I've picked them up for a night out, but just so I don't lose my proper one. They're also very strong at a base level, they say 2% but a lot of people don't realise that's 20mg. My usual is 3mg as I've cut down, so I feel that the next day.
What gets me is when I see ads for disposables costing less than the individual pods, which still aren't great, but economically it seems bizarre that a whole disposable unit with a battery can be cheaper to make.
I always prefer disposable-sized vapes, but seriously just get one with replaceable pods. I might spend 60 dollars every two months buying juice and a few packs of coils. The Vaporesso XROS for example is great and I manage to get 4 or 5 days out of each coil replacement.
