It is interesting that our customer base brings such a variety of people that are choosing to try vaping. This proves that the market for electronic cigarettes does not discriminate and that anybody can choose to take up vaping at any stage and for any reason. Many of our customers express that they have chosen to try ecigs as a way to try to give up smoking. They say that even though we do not sell nicotine, that they feel that electronic cigarettes provide a psychological hand to mouth movement that they are so used to when they smoked cigarettes.
Electronic cigarettes are relatively new in the mainstream technology stakes, but we are surprised that vaping has been met by such controversy. In Australia there is such ill informed press regarding these devices that one does begin to wonder why people would want to rally to ban such a product, particularly when it does not directly concern them. In Australia today, there are many other issues thats should be controversial such as the pill that is prescribed for giving up smoking, Champix.
This is a fantastic article about electronic cigarettes and how they feature in the new movie with Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie. http://www.aschoonerofscience.com/?p=1926
According to the American Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, the following information is available about Propylene Glycol which is the main ingredient of our e-juice.

Vaping is becoming much more popular with individuals and celebrities alike as people are searching for a permanent method of giving up smoking. On September 28th 2010, Katherine Heigl starred on David Letterman and discussed her smoking habit. She then revealed how she was able to kick the habit by lighting up an electronic cigarette. See the clip for yourself.
Hi I would just like to say "Thank You" for the first time in 37 years I have been smoke free thanks to your store and your Ego CE4-T unit's, I have not had 1 cigarette for 2 day's now and I owe it all to your Store and products and the informative information you you have about E-cig's etc. Just in one day I went from a full time smoker to an E-Vapor and my Carbon Dioxide reading went from 59 down to 10, that's a reading of only 2.2% when I went to see my Stop Smoking nurse and she was amazed as I was to get such a quick response from just vaporizing for one day.
A few vapers experience some symptoms when converting from cigarettes to vaping as the body no longer has to deal with the excreted tar and ash and instead begins to clear out the accumulated gunk. Nicotine intake from vaping is generally quite a lot lower so there might be some withdrawal symptoms too, which is often mitigated by increased vaping in the first days. From there though, things just get better and better. Soon the cough is gone, breathing is easier, and energy levels start rising; so much so that people often begin to get more active in their daily lives.
The G4 Cartomizers are an added accessory for the eVape collection. They have a large capacity and can screw into any 510 or ego battery. They are well priced and can be used in place of an atomiser and cartridge. When vaping, they really pack a punch and work by pushing 3.2- 3.7 voltage through. The juice burns at a pleasant rate and the G4's are small enough to carry around with you so you can use different flavours. The good thing about them too is that they are refillable, so you really get value for money.
Many of our customers feel comfortable sticking to the juices that have made them comfortable since starting to vape. Popular choices include tobacco flavours, menthols and fruit flavours. Don't get us wrong, we are very partial to those flavours, in fact Strawberry is an in house favourite! We do get a sense of delightment when a customer orders an exotic collection of juice flavours to try, such as vodka peach, buttered popcorn, bubblegum or rum raisin. It is not surprising that those customers come back and order, again and again and again.
De elektronische sigaret met nicotine is voor rokers een succesvol alternatief om op termijn minder te roken of zelfs helemaal te stoppen. Dat blijkt uit een experiment van Leuvense onderzoekers.
Het onderzoek werd gedurende 8 maanden uitgevoerd met 48 proefpersonen. De onderzoekers pleiten er op basis van hun resultaten voor dat de elektronische sigaret op de Belgische markt zou toegelaten worden.
Lawmakers in Santa Fe recently considered a proposal to institute a tax on vapor products (commonly referred to as electronic cigarettes or e-cigarettes) at the exorbitant rate of 4 cents per milligram nicotine — a level that would make many products more expensive than the real thing: toxic, deadly cigarettes. While this is being posited as a “public health” measure, it is in fact a money grab, the effect of which would be antithetical to both public health and New Mexico’s budgetary needs.
Just a few years ago, early adopters of e-cigarettes got their fix by clumsily screwing together a small battery and a plastic cartridge containing cotton soaked with nicotine. Now, the battery-powered contraptions have computer chips to regulate puffs and temperature, track usage, talk to other electronic devices and even blink when "vapers" are near each other. Federal officials say the technology race could make creating standards the devices, which heat a liquid to create vapor rather than burning tobacco, more difficult in the future.
Utah Gov. Gary Herbert wants e-cigarettes to be taxed, and his office thinks it could bring in $10 million for the state annually.
“The governor feels strongly we should tax e-cigarettes the same way as other tobacco products,” said Marty Carpenter, a Herbert spokesman, in an interview with the Washington Post. “We don’t want to be in the business of incentivizing” e-cigarettes, he said.
Staatssecretaris Van Rijn van Volksgezondheid richt zijn vizier op reclames voor e-sigaretten. Juist de jeugd wordt door middel van vooral digitale reclame aangesproken door verschillende E-sigaretproducenten.
Mr Ray Story sat down with the press, asking the Government for dialogue.
Mr Story believes banning e-cigarettes is unfair to current smokers. “To ban e-cigarettes, would only mean you will allow conventional cigarettes to continue,” he says. “Banning the product would therefore be extremely irresponsible.”

India is at par with all other regional countries with regards to their consumers demand for e-cigarettes to be safely regulated and available, but falls behind most of the countries in the region with regards to awareness of e-cigarettes and the benefits they can introduce to smokers.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued warning letters to four tobacco manufacturers—Swisher International Inc., Cheyenne International LLC, Prime Time International Co., and Southern Cross Tobacco Company Inc.—for selling flavored cigarettes that are labeled as little cigars or cigars, which is a violation of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (TCA).
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Republican legislative leaders say they want to unwind stiff regulations they imposed on Indiana’s vaping industry, which created a stranglehold on the burgeoning market for one company and prompted an FBI investigation.
The law, which is subject to a legal challenge, was passed in 2015 ostensibly to ensure that the nicotine-laced liquid consumed through vaping met safety standards. But it was amended last year in a way that effectively gave a Lafayette-based security company sole discretion to decide who could be certified to produce “e-liquid” in Indiana.
While technology stocks always seem to be sought after as the best opportunity for investors to earn incredible returns, it is dividend paying stocks like Altria (NYSE:MO) that have provided the best returns in the last few decades. In fact, from 1970-2016, Altria gave investors a total return of 505,704%, which amounts to an annual return of 20.4% over those 46 years. In 2008, Altria (then known as Philip Morris) separated its domestic operations from its international business, Philip Morris International (NYSE:PM).
Law360, New York (March 13, 2017, 3:46 PM EDT) -- A warehouser objected Friday to plans filed by e-cigarette maker NJOY Inc. to abandon more than 3,000 pallets of their devices, saying that holding and disposing of the inventory is expensive and dangerous due to the lithium batteries they contain.
NEW DATA reveals the e-cigarette business is alight across major cities in the UK; in the wake of a recent report from the Office of National Statistics that claims 56.7% of smokers across Great Britain made the decision to quit smoking traditional cigarettes in 2015 – the highest proportion of quitters recorded since 1974.
A bill expected this week in the U.S. House of Representatives would weaken a Food and Drug Administration rule governing e-cigarettes and represent a major victory for the $4.4 billion U.S. vaping industry.
The bill, from Republican Representative Duncan Hunter of California, would reverse the Obama administration's "Deeming Rule" which deems e-cigarettes to be tobacco products, subject to the same strict regulations governing traditional cigarettes. E-cigarettes heat nicotine-laced liquid into vapor but do not contain tobacco.
New laboratory data reveal that vapour from a novel hybrid tobacco heating product (THP) iFuse and two standard THPs produced little or no effect on human cells in biological testing.
'Our results suggest that these standard THPs and our novel hybrid product have the potential to reduce smoking-related disease risks when compared with cigarette smoking,' says Dr James Murphy, Head of Reduced Risk Substantiation at British American Tobacco. 'However, further pre-clinical and clinical research is required to substantiate conclusive risk reduction of these products.'
The physician running the U.S. Food and Drug Administration stunned
tobacco companies when he said the agency had plans for rules to slash
cigarettes’ nicotine content. Maybe they should have seen something like
that coming.
Back in July, the Food and Drug Administration committed itself to a new strategy to tackling smoking.
Articulated by FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, the new approach
recognizes it's the deadly smoke caused by setting tobacco on fire
sucking into the lungs that are responsible for the deaths of 480,000
Americans each year -- not nicotine.
Part of this new strategy, according to Gottlieb, is ensuring new and
innovative products that are significantly less dangerous than smoking
and can draw people away from cigarettes can come to market.
