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.
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.
