They have just been against the refillable vapes.
Like refillable tanks and RDAs that don't earn them any money.
They would rather people vape with their closed cartridge cig-a-like system, even if it means cautiously going down the slippery slope of trying to get the open refillable systems banned to try and force people to use their crappy versions.
No, now that vaping is a billion+ dollar a year industry...they are not against it...they just want the goverment to hand it over to them....and destroy all the indpemdent modders and juice makers.
Big tobacco has always been for vaping. I think big tobacco is trying to cover their a$$ with the closed systems. I am in no way defending them but i can understand their reasons if these are their reasons.
1. Minimize lawsuits for bad juice or harmful toxins that maybe in theirs or other juices. When the closed systems came out not a lot was know about e liquids and that remains true yet but we now know more. If some refilled a carto that was disposable and got sick or injured they are off the hook.
2. Allow bigger margins on return sales. Buy a blu kit for instance for 70 dollars u.s. and you make maybe %50 bottle of juice %50 prefilled cartos %75 plus.
3. No device malfunction lawsuits when someone uses the wrong resistance carto and watches the device blow up.
Don't get mad at me this is just how i see it. I don't blame them but i don't agree with them that is why i don't buy them.
