They should absolutely ban disposable but as long as they’re smart about it and don’t try and make it a general vape ban. Anything with a microcontroller and OLED display should need regulation to be “disposable”. So fucking wasteful.
Vapes can and have always been something you can pop a battery and cartridge and custom juice in. There’s zero reason to make it disposable. Make the coil/cotton/juice cartridge disposable… Like a juul was last I checked? That’s reasonable.
And then next regulate how much nicotine can be in per ml. 60mg/ml is fucking insane. That is heart issue level of nicotine. I got buzzed off 12 mg/ml, used 3 or 6mg/ml regularly, and quit at 1.5mg/ml. There’s no fucking reason other than harm and addiction to provide 60mg/ml.
don’t try and make it a general vape ban.
In some EU contries 10ml liquid costs more than pack of cigarettes, so they defacto banned vaping.
how much nicotine can be in per ml. 60mg/ml
20 mg/ml is EU wide limit since 2025

Germany only allows 20mg/ml, I didn’t know there were countries that allowed 60??? 😭
OLED maybe but small micros are now so cheap and so small that they’re negligible.
Battery is probably still the biggest environmental impact.
One of those 3 cent one time programmable microcontrollers would be sufficient. Something with enough power to run a web server is just wasteful.
You do realize that a 1 cent microcontroller has enough RAM, Flash and processing power to be a web server, correct?
And the term web server doesn’t mean it has to run the whole of AWS. It just means it can deliver some content over http.
Yeah, I doubt it’s running more than a couple concurrent connections. Idle web servers take very little resources.
Getting ever closer to smart dust.
