As the Tobacco Products Directive continues to create shockwaves in the electronic cigarette industry, we always find ourselves coming back to the main issue about electronic cigarettes and the TPD: safety.
New Zealand Associate Health Minister Nicky Wagner said of electronic cigarettes:
[Electronic cigarettes] are about 95% less harmful than cigarettes.
The EU Commission recently released the results of their three month public consultation geared towards updating EU regulations on minimum excise tax levels in the wake of the revised Tobacco Products Directive (TPD); the electronic cigarette and eliquid taxation question generated over 7500 responses. A precise 89.88% said no, electronic cigarettes and e liquids should not carry an excise tax.
While we are more focused on Europe and the US, it always it great to hear other industrialized nations voice pro-electronic cigarette opinions. Take John Cameron for example; he is a doctor in New Zealand and perfectly outlines what the electronic cigarette is in typically efficient and amusing Kiwi style.
Electronic cigarettes do not contain tar or carbon monoxide, normal cigarettes do and these are the main causes or cancer.
What people don't understand, or sometimes forget, is the fact that cancer is caused by the tar and carbon monoxide in cigarette smoke. Electronic cigarettes do not involve tar or carbon monoxide.
Marlboro and Camel were totally ignorant of electronic cigarettes in the early days, was even charged with spreading lies about electronic cigarettes until it was able to catch up. Everyone still laughs at corporate versions of electronic cigarettes, it is a typical example of the company not being anywhere near the culture of the consumer.
Nature is one of the world's most cited scientific journals, if not the most cited - definitely one of the most respected. They have been in science since around mid-to-late 19th century.
In a classic case of I told you so, PhD's from University College London and King's College, London, United Kingdom; Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, New York; and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia have concluded through new research that e-cigarettes are much safer than normal cigarettes in the long run. The research was funded primarily through Cancer Research UK and filed with Annals of Internal Medicine, a peer-reviewed journal.
The US Patent & Trademark Office officially granted Apple a vaporizer patent on 26 January 2017. The patent was filed by Apple employee Tetsuya Ishikawa and proposes vaporization through a heated plate.
Famous people who vape, any celebrity who owns an electronic cigarette should start advocating for the cause - as should you. Please do your part and spread this video as much as possible.
Electronic cigarettes are a very successful alternative to smoking because vaping--the act of using an electronic cigarette--is extremely similar to smoking real cigarettes. It is no surprise there are millions of people worldwide who quit smoking with electronic cigarettes. Not only do e-cigarettes help you quit smoking, they help you quit for good.
From $6bn in 2015 to around $32b in 2021 and $50b in 2025 - the electronic cigarette is gaining by leaps and bounds.
The massive increase of vaping has kept on boosting electronic cigarette sales from day one - so much for Big Tobacco and Big Pharma spewing out propaganda, people have seen ecigs are a worthy way to quit smoking.
As is the norm, respectable public bodies and newspapers periodically come out with how
electronic cigarettes are the best way to quit smoking.
For those that haven't heard of the TPD, it's not the toilet paper directive, instead, it is the Tobacco Products Directive that directs people to die easier by making life harder for the electronic cigarette industry and vapers.
There are many reports on electronic cigarettes and vaping so it becomes important to know what to read, as well as what to vape. Google indexed an article two days about how vaping is a gateway to quitting.
Something to remember if you are new to the whole electronic cigarette concept:
An oft overlooked aspect of electronic cigarettes is actually a very important one. For those trying to quit smoking, there is a real risk of gaining a lot of weight. For those that already vape, electronic cigarettes help immensely by providing a tasty alternative to actually eating desserts, or just generally consuming fattening foods and drinks. For the relatively uninitiated, electronic cigarette liquids come in a mindblowing range that includes cactus fruit, smores, hand rolling tobacco, cereals and countless other flavors that lets you indulge to the maximum without having to worry about putting on weight.
There are those out there that would repudiate even the word of God if it did not suit their agenda of demonizing electronic cigarettes. As vapers and the electronic cigarette industry are attacked from all points, nothing anyone does or says is having too much effect. Experts come out with unbiased electronic cigarette research that finds in favor of vaping, legislators choose to ignore it. Scientists put forth considered opinions that somehow appear to be supportive of electronic cigarettes, they are not even given the time of day. Then you have your charlatans that, for instance, take the number 3, twist it around and show it as an 8 - and the fragrant works(!) of these rectal orifices are hailed as scientific greatness and used to dis and misinform the unsuspecting public. Makes us want to puke every time we see such self-serving drivel spouted by Big Tobacco & Pharma mouthpieces!
The electronic cigarette is, and always has been, under attack from day one. And from day one, electronic cigarette enthusiasts and regular people with a smidgen of logic immediately saw through the slick and sly maneuverings of Big Tobacco. But, wheels turn slow on Capitol Hill. Be that as it may, there is progress. A few months ago the prestigious Washington Post published a story on e-cigarettes that basically--finally--brought forth the idea that Big Tobacco could be harming public health with unscrupulous lobbying, and, dare we say it, bribery. Their aim? To take over the electronic cigarette market by reducing competition as much as they can.
Among the various propaganda techniques of Big Tobacco, Big Pharma and the FDA is to blurt out electronic cigarettes do not help in the quit smoking period. It's always the same, they wantonly skew electronic cigarette research results to support their lies. Well, no more of that - at least for the time being. Because, as always, whenever the big cats throw a pile of lies online, they are hit back with real and credible science.
Director Aaron Biebert has slammed corrupt politicians and decision-makers in a documentary based on the fact that a billion people will die this century due to smoking. A Billion Lives focuses on the gargantuan opposition e-cigarettes have been facing ever since they came out. As you probably guessed, it all comes down to money. Crooks and frauds entrenched in government offices are, and have been, consistently lying and obfuscating the facts about electronic cigarettes and vaping in general for the grand old purpose of lining their pockets.
We periodically blog with the vaping newbie in mind, because as interest in electronic cigarettes grow, more and more people search for current and relevant information on what an electronic cigarette is, what vaping is all about and how to avoid common pitfalls. Obviously, switching to electronic cigarettes is a no-brainer for any smoker, but the massive range of complicated ecigs on the market, plus the truly mind-boggling array of technical jargon can easily be, and frequently is, confusing, frustrating and intimidating for new vapers. As a result, many smokers are put off vaping, and that is a tragedy.
As unfortunate as it is, there are countless smokers who try to make the transition to e-cigs, only to revert back to smoking because of simple mistakes and a general lack of information. In this article, we will go over the five most common mistakes new vapers make. Hopefully, if you are planning to switch to electronic cigarettes and come across this article, you will have a much better chance to quit smoking. So, one by one, here are the major mistakes you want to avoid if you want to successfully stop smoking and enter the world of vaping:
No, your eyes are not deceiving you, electronic cigarettes are being called drugs by such organizations like the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
Yesterday Reuters reported massive increases in the amount of vapers, giving 2-year examples from France and Britain. In France between 2012-2014, the amount of people that tried ecigarettes at least once rose 200% from 7.3% to 21.3%. In Britain in the same period, the rise was also quite impressive: around 65% increase from 8.9% to 15.5%.
Vapers, polish your e-cigarettes and prepare for battle! On Thursday May 5, the FDA brought the federal banhammer down on electronic cigarettes. This will undoubtedly have wide ranging repercussions not only in the US, but the whole world. The nutshell version: More than 99% of e-cigarette and e-liquid producers are expected to exit the market, because the FDA ruling basically means you have to spend approximately 1 million dollars per e-liquid for testing and approval. That's not all, either. Say you have 5 nicotine levels for a given eliquid. In this case, you would have to spend 5 million dollars to get each approved. Lovely, isn't it?
This is a real picture, it has been making the rounds in the electronic cigarette world for some time; is this how your e-liquid is produced? Google has some intense stories about this, but looking at the picture, it's plainly evident why legislation, safety and quality matter - not only for eliquids, but electronic cigarettes as well. Aside from creating obvious health hazards, they also endanger vaper rights by giving law-makers ammunition they need for scaremongering. We all need to be careful when buying e-liquids or other vaping products.
As electronic cigarette technology develops further and becomes more complex in every way, vapers require more information on how to safely build coils, mix e-liquid and other guidelines. This is exactly why vaping calculators have become crucial in understanding the best and safest ways to build and mix coils and e-liquids.
This is, naturally, a great development because we vapers want to be safe and be able to mix great ejuice. If you're in need of a top notch vaping resource to calculate your vaping variables, we highly suggest Steam Engine. This site is operated by vaping professionals that are experienced electronic cigarette veterans. You can use their comprehensive database to calculate everything from coils to e-juice.
Virtually everyone in the electronic cigarette world knows that official government organizations have been using the gateway scenario to scare the public into believing vaping is basically a bad thing. For years we have been reading select passages from various research that focus only on information that shows electronic cigarettes in a bad light. "Vaping is worse than smoking", "vaping is dangerous", and countless other headlines have been used to demonize e-cigarettes but thankfully we have a brain of our own.
First things first, as they say; thank you for choosing us for your electronic cigarette needs. We sincerely appreciate your business and will always offer you the best vaping deals possible. Speaking of ecigarettes and deals, we recently finished stocking the immensely popular 1600mAh I-Energy kit in three different colours (black, stainless, and coffee). A veritable steal at €44.95 (approx. ₤33 - $51), you have to experience it to understand what a brilliant piece of kit the high energy I-Energy is!
We recently asked one the top reviewers on YouTube to do an unbiased review on two of our products, and the results are in! The Nunchaku variable wattage battery has been one of our best selling electronic cigarette batteries since they were introduced - and with good reason. The beauty of the VW vaping system is that you don't need to manually adjust for voltage; the battery checks the atomizer resistance and automatically delivers the best voltage. This way, your ecigarette always vapes at maximum levels. Variable wattage is quickly becoming the standard in vaping, and has overtaken variable voltage as it is much more effective and much more vaper-friendly in terms of vapour performance and ease of use.
VISION/VAPROS recently performed research to see how much longer the 850mAh and 1650mAh Spinner 2 VV batteries last compared to a regular 650mAh eGo battery.

Electronic cigarettes have grown to a global, multi-billion dollar industry in just a few short years - and that astounding growth has happened in the face of some of the most difficult conditions an industry has ever known.
