E-CIGARETTE AND HTP
RESOURCE HUB

We’re here to help against the tobacco industry’s aggressive marketing efforts.

E-cigarettes and other emerging products are dangerous and addictive, especially for children and youth. The tobacco industry is waging an aggressive campaign to position these products as “harm reduction” tools in an effort to get more people addicted to nicotine and tobacco.

THE US IS BEING FLOODED BY CHINESE VAPES

In late March, a smoke shop in Dyersburg, Tennessee, announced the arrival of a new product in its store: a disposable nicotine vape with an LCD display that can be connected to a smartphone via Bluetooth. Marketed under the brand name RAMA, the strawberry- and kiwi-flavored vape looks more like a cell phone from the early 2000s than a typical e-cigarette. It allows users to customize the screen background, see how many puffs of nicotine are left, and even track the device’s location using an accompanying app. “NEVER LOSE YOUR VAPE AGAIN!!!!” Mk Smoke Shop said in a Facebook post.

Chinese vaping giant Elf Bar has been accused of skirting UK law with a £12.99 device that has the strength of 240 cigarettes. The AF5000 is advertised as coming pre-filled with 2ml of liquid nicotine – the legal maximum for a disposable e-cigarette. But it also has a clip-on 10ml ‘reservoir’ taking its total up to 12ml, allowing 5,000 ‘puffs of huge satisfaction’ from a single device.
