    Obviously prohibition doesn’t work, but banning disposables specifically should be mandated everywhere. It is insane that a product that contains rechargeable lithium batteries is not rechargeable, or if it is it must be thrown away after less than a month.

      Well it’ll work in this case because they’re not banging people from doing something they’re banning companies from doing something.

      If a product is not available for sale then it’s difficult for people to purchase it

        Not really, in places with decriminalized but not legal weed there’s still a lot of weed in all forms being distributed.

        What will make this work is that they didn’t ban flavors or non disposable vape devices.

        Oh free lithium batteries. I’ve got a decent sized stash of cells salvaged from disposables. Some of their cases I want to use as project boxes for esp devices.

        Will be sad once the supply dries up for us electronics folks.
