I really like these disposables but I totally understand why they shouldn't be available.
I've been informed that these should be treated like batteries when recycling.
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
The EU are introducing new laws that require batteries be easily user-replacable in devices like vapes. I'm hoping that'll kill them off if nothing else.
Just imagine the malicious compliance. Replaceable batteries but not liquid
