If you do a lot of shopping through the same vape store, you can take advantage of reward programs, auto-ship deals and membership-based arrangements to save some extra cash. But how good are the deals, and what are the pros and cons of each type?
The politicians and advisors who spearhead these decisions and push the legislation through are condemning many vapers to standing outside with smokers, removing one of the major benefits of the technology with no evidence to support their choice. It’s time to name and shame the guilty.
It is widely known and acknowledged even in smoker communities that cigarette smoking is extremely harmful for health. Smoking tobacco can lead to a host of sicknesses and cause irreparable damage to the mind, body and soul. Still, there exist some horrific facts that shed a light into this matter.
The days when you could smoke tobacco in bars are coming to an end. As more and more states opt for smoke-free laws which affect restaurants and bars, you will see people lighting up inside less and less. One of the biggest benefits of e-cigarettes is that since they don’t create smoke – they produce vapor – they are not subject to “No Smoking” rules of any description. However, businesses are free to choose if they allow e-cigarettes in their establishments, so the future of indoor nicotine consumption is still uncertain. So far, however, businesses that have embraced the technology have benefited from it, and there are several reasons why.
Let’s get it out there. Some e-cigs look like robot penises. This fact leads many smokers to declare flatly that e-cigs are too bulky, too much to carry around and too awkward to ever serve as a replacement for the carcinogen-laden alternative.
The short answer – yes! Thanks to several studies that were done in the past few years (the most recent...
Organizations do a whole heap of good work in the e-cigarette industry, but plenty of individual people manage to effectively stand their ground against the crusade of lies propagated by anti-smoking groups, the tobacco industry and regulatory bodies such as the FDA. Ultimately, the lobbying power of individuals will always pale in comparison to that of organizations, but the continued work of numerous people helps to disseminate much-needed accurate information about e-cigs. These are five of the most influential individuals in the electronic cigarette industry around today.

One of the most frequently cited “issues” with e-cigs is that they aren't currently FDA-approved and therefore must be either unsafe or ineffective for their chosen purpose.
Scam companies and bogus free trial offers are unfortunately common in the world of e-cigs, and if you want to avoid falling prey to one of them there are several important tips you should keep in mind.
The media feeds on negativity. A story about trace amounts of a carcinogen found in an electronic cigarette is much more likely to be covered extensively and disseminated into public knowledge than ones which show them to be no more dangerous than nicotine gum or patches.
The California Department of Public Health’s Still Blowing Smoke campaign and the CDC’s tips campaign are just two of the latest examples of why tobacco harm reduction is so widely misunderstood by the public. But why is the anti-science, chemo-phobic propaganda winning the PR war over e-cigarettes?
A briefing organized by the New Nicotine Alliance at the sixth Global Forum on Nicotine underlined the importance of flavors for the success of vaping, and called the logic of flavor bans - as currently being proposed across the US - arguing that they could cause more harm than good.
They may be designed as a safer method of getting the nicotine you crave, but there are nicotine free electronic cigarettes on offer from many manufacturers. The reasons for this are simple, although it may seem confusing and counter-productive at first. Offering different levels of nicotine in the cartridges is commonplace, and the majority of manufacturers do have a nicotine-free option. The companies don’t claim that electronic cigarettes can help users quit, but research into the area does suggest that they can. As a result, many people use e-cigs for that reason, and a nicotine free e-cigarette is a useful tool for those trying to quit.
There’s no disputing the fact that smoking causes damage to multiple organs in the human body – the heart and...
One of the major features in the marketing for blu is the portable charging case’s “Social Feature,” accompanied by some particularly optimistic statements. According to blu, “Smoking is a social activity, so why shouldn't your electronic cigarette pack be packed with social features?” Has blu tried to sell us all a useless piece of crap, or is there something more to the “Social Feature?”
