UK Gov To Ban Disposables?

[zouzounaki]

Aye to sell

they’ll end up a barras staple. when the edgy shout comes it will no only be the fake cd’s that get bundled up in a blanket and run it will be thousands upon thousands of 10000 puff disposables. three furra pounaaa!!!

i’ve always supported the idea of disposables being banned, but i think there is also a good argument for limited flavours in pre-filled single use devices only (including the pods). this could easily be done with no interference in flavours available in bottles. to me this would make sense since the throw away shit is what the weans seem drawn to.

although i do think there need to be some sensible rules about packaging and display since some shop keepers and liquid manufacturers don’t seem able to do this.

I'd go along with a limited amount of single use pre-filled pods for those who want them but it's so simple to just stick a charging port on the other end so I don't think allowing the 'mod' part to be single use is justifiable.

I would suspect the same juice that's in the legal ones only more of it

Wasn't there a load of used disposables collected somewhere that were tested and found to have substantially higher chemical levels than what is permitted? If so, then is it safe to presume that they were probably illegal vapes and not ones that have been tested and approved for the UK market by MHRA?

what do the MHRA test for? does the trpr set out an acceptable level of chemicals? i thought they only tested for diacetyl and stuff to make the vapour change colour.

I don't know, that's why I was asking. I would assume (perhaps naively) that the whole point of MHRA testing and approval is to determine that devices are relatively safe to use? If some vapes are tested and found to contain chemical levels deemed to be unsafe would that indicate that they have not been tested or that the MHRA's testing and approval system is largely meaningless?

This proves how unenforceable the regulations are...he's probably so many he doesn't know the difference and will not be clued up on what's illegal and what's not.

That's the problem, these people just see it as a money making exercise and dont give a toss about the law. Not helped by the fact that very little, if any, get fined or prosecuted so they just carry on regardless.

Yes, but I don't think that the MHRA test products themselves...

Full toxicology and emissions tests need to submitted to the MHRA per device, or per flavour/strength e-liquid, in order for them to be placed on the market.
