MODERATORS
heating coil, chemical reservoir, battery? It's not like it's rocket science.
The biggest problem with these things is they use lithium batteries. That is not a single use item.
It's insanity. Rechargeable batteries were the default. You could switch out for a better battery. The whole vape scene looked to be a big win for decreasing smoking and reducing costs.
Then big tobacco and the government got involved.
It's literally buying rechargeable batteries and throwing them away after the first use. (Yes, I have also yelled at someone when they did that with some AA Eneloops 🙄).
As an aside, I don't smoke or vape, but had an interest in batteries, and some of the info that would come from some of the vape sites was fantastic.
Replaceable rechargeable batteries were the default.
