They may look like travel shampoo bottles and smell like bubblegum, but after a few hundred puffs, some disposable, electronic cigarettes and vape pods release higher amounts of toxic metals than older e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes, according to a study from the University of California, Davis. For example, one of the disposable e-cigarettes studied released more lead during a day’s use than nearly 20 packs of traditional cigarettes.

    whole industry is SO fucking frustrating.

    vaping saved my life for a decade.

    it was a battle to keep finding supply, though.

    then disposables flood the market. they fucked up my heart over the last year.

    upon quitting now I’m free from the bullshit war between the companies and consumers, the companies and regulators, the regulators and the addicts, and most of all, free from the war between myself and the addiction.

    But life would be a lot easier if they just let us vape like they did in 2012…
