Nah, these have electronics inside, and appeal to teens with their fruit flavors (which are banned in cigarettes in most countries). I took some apart, they are terribly wasteful, especially when all you need to make them reusable is sell the wool cartriges or liquid and add a $0.30 charging port and a $0.20 charging chip on a $0.10 PCB. The battery is already rechargeable!!
I’ve actually been collecting reusable capes to pull out the batteries and convert them into powerbanks, crazy these are bing tossed after a single charge. Some of the batteries are pretty big too!
I’ve never heard anyone call a vape a fag, because that very specifically refers to a cigarette. Like you wouldn’t call a cigar or a blunt a fag either.
Single use vapes? Aren’t those called cigarettes or (given the article’s origins) fags?

Most adults vape fruit flavors too.
Disposables have to go, banning flavors is just pushing ex-smokers to smoking again.
It’s impossible to replicate tobacco flavor with artificial food flavorings, “tobacco” flavored ecigs taste horrible.

Did you find any with actual 18650s? Those are most useful in “DIY powerbanks”. Just remember to add fuses, the chip could go short circuit!
Some disposables actually use 18650 or 18500, I’ve only seen 18500; it’s such a waste.
Disposables should be banned.
