<content:encoded><![CDATA[By Neil Fearns What Is Disposable Vapes?A disposable vape, also known as a disposable e-cigarette, is a small, lightweight, and portable device. It consists of a battery, a heating element (coil), and a prefilled e-liquid cartridge. Some models also feature an LED indicator that shows battery life or other information. The cartridge contains e-liquid or vape juice, which comes in various flavours and nicotine levels, including traditional tobacco, menthol, fruity, and dessert flavours. There are also nicotine-free disposable vapes available.The battery powers the vaporization of the e-liquid when you inhale. Since disposable vapes are designed for single or limited use, the battery is not rechargeable. Once the battery is depleted or the e-liquid is finished, the entire device is discarded. Typically, a disposable vape lasts for one to two days.Types Of Disposables Vapes<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Cigarette style disposable vapes</li>
<li>Disposable vape bars</li>
<li>Pen-stye disposable vapes</li>
<li>Sub-ohm Disposable Vapes</li></ul>Advantages Of Disposable Vapes<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Disposable vapes are very convenient as they come prefilled and ready to use right out of the box. </li>
<li>Since disposable vapes are made for single, there is no need for maintenance like cleaning coils or replacing parts. </li>
<li>Disposable vapes come in a wide range of flavours, like fruity, minty, liquorice, icy, etc. </li>
<li>They are much cheaper for people who smoke only occasionally. </li>
<li>With disposable vapes, there is no risk of leaking e-liquid since they come prefilled and sealed by the manufacturer. </li>
<li>Users can test vaping without committing to a more expensive device.</li></ul>What are Pod Systems?Pod systems feature a minimal design without buttons or settings. To activate them, you either inhale from the device or press a button, depending on the model. Pods can be refilled with e-liquid or come as prefilled cartridges. Some systems use closed pods that are filled and sealed by manufacturers, while others have open, refillable pods for multiple uses.The e-liquid in these pods comes in various flavours and nicotine strengths. Pod systems have a small battery, typically built into the device, with power varying based on the size and brand. Many pod systems are equipped with USB charging ports for convenient recharging.Advantages of Pod Systems<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>They often have a simple design with no complicated settings, making them easy for beginners. </li>
<li>Refillable pods can be less costly in the long run compared to disposable vapes, as users only need to replace the e-liquid rather than the entire device.</li>
<li>Many pod systems use nicotine salts, which have a smooth throat hit and quick nicotine absorption. </li>
<li>Many pod systems offer longer battery life compared to disposable vapes.</li>
<li>Refillable pods help reduce waste compared to disposable vapes.</li></ul>Types Of Disposable Pods<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Open pods</li>
<li>Close pods</li></ul>Final ThoughtsChoosing between disposable vapes and pod systems depends on your personal preferences and needs. Disposable vapes are affordable and highly convenient, making them ideal for beginners. On the other hand, pod systems might be a better choice if you seek a more customizable and long-term solution.For instance, the Sky Hunter 2600 is a TPD-compliant vape device that provides an exceptional vaping experience with its 2600 puff capacity and four flavours in one. It is designed for those who enjoy big puffs and long-lasting vaping sessions.FAQs<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>How to dispose of disposable vapes</li></ul>The most used, safe and convenient way is to return it to a retailer or just put it in a vape disposal can. <ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Are pod vapes better than disposable?</li></ul>Totally depends upon your suitability to their features, but 4-in-1 systems are much better for the environment than traditional disposable system.

]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[If your vape pen isn’t working after a charge, you’re likely feeling confused and frustrated, especially if it was functioning fine before. This guide aims to clarify the issue. Generally, there’s no need to worry because it’s highly unlikely that charging caused the problem. Instead, the issue probably has a simple explanation and solution.To determine why your vape pen stopped working after charging, consider why you charged it. Did you charge it because the battery was dead, or were you troubleshooting another issue? If you were troubleshooting, charging might not have resolved the problem. This guide will cover scenarios for both situations.Why is your vape pen not working after a charge? Let’s explore some common possibilities.Your Vape Pen Is Turned OffThe simplest reason is that the vape pen might be turned off. If your device has a manual fire button, press it five times. If the device blinks, you’ve turned it on. Try using it again to see if the issue is resolved.For simple 510-thread batteries or pod vapes without a manual fire button, the device turns on automatically when you connect a pod or cartridge. If nothing happens when you puff, remove and reconnect the pod or cartridge. If it still doesn’t work, continue reading for more solutions.Your Vape Pen Isn’t Detecting the Pod or CartridgeFor 510-thread vape pens or pod systems without a fire button, if the device isn’t working after you’ve removed and reinserted the cartridge, check for leaks under the cartridge. If it’s leaked, clean and dry both the cartridge and the device thoroughly. If it still doesn’t work, try replacing the cartridge. For vape tanks with replaceable coils, try replacing the coil.Your Vape Pen Isn’t Actually ChargedIf you charged your vape pen because the battery was dead and it still doesn’t work, ensure it’s actually charging. If your vape pen has a screen, it will display a “Low Battery” message if the battery is dead. If it doesn’t have a screen, an indicator light will blink when you try to vape. Check the manual to confirm this blink code indicates a dead battery.If the battery is dead, troubleshoot why your vape pen isn’t charging:<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Wiggle the USB cable in the charging port. If the connector moves, the port might have a weak or broken solder point. Adjust the cable to see if it starts charging. If the port is broken, you’ll need to replace the device.</li>
<li>Try a different USB cable. Damaged cables often cause charging issues.</li>
<li>Connect your vape pen to a different power source, like a USB wall adapter (not one for a smartphone or tablet). Use an adapter with a power delivery of 5 volts and 1 amp.</li>
<li>Ensure the charging port is clean. Use a toothpick to remove any debris.</li></ul>Your Cartridge Is CloggedIf you’re using a 510-thread battery with thick vape oil, the oil might thicken if stored in a cool place. This can cause the cartridge to clog. To fix it:<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Use a needle or paperclip to clear clogs in the airflow openings or chimney.</li>
<li>Puff more firmly to force air through and break the clog.</li>
<li>Warm the cartridge between your hands or in front of a heater to melt the clog.</li></ul>Your Vape Pen’s Battery Is FinishedLithium-ion batteries typically last for 300-500 charge cycles. If your vape pen’s run time has decreased and it isn’t working after a charge, the battery might be finished. Signs include:<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>The device never shows that charging is complete.</li>
<li>The device shows it’s fully charged quickly but dies almost immediately.</li></ul>If either applies, it’s time to recycle and replace your vape pen.Your Vape Pen Overheated While ChargingIf none of the above scenarios fit, the battery might have overheated during charging, especially if connected to an incompatible charger. Overheating signs include strange smells or the device feeling unusually hot. Disconnect it immediately if this happens and move it to a fire-safe location.If your vape pen is unresponsive after overheating, it’s likely the battery is damaged. In this case, you’ll need to replace the device.The post <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/vape-pen-not-working-after-charging-heres-what-might-be-going-on/">Vape Pen Not Working After Charging?

<content:encoded><![CDATA[What is the Vaping Products Duty (VPD)? In the budget announced on March 6th, the chancellor announced a new duty on vaping. This duty will come into force from October 2026.The rates for the vape duty will be:<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>£1 per 10ml for nicotine free liquids.</li>
<li>£2 per 10ml for 0.1-10.9mg nicotine per ml liquids.</li>
<li>£3 per 10ml for 11-20mg nicotine per ml liquids.</li></ul>The government will also be bringing in another increase on tobacco, which will increase 100 cigarettes or 50 grams of tobacco by £2 from October 2026.There is a 12-week consultation period on the policy design and technical details which has been launched.You can read through the budget here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/spring-budget-2024">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/spring-budget-2024</a>So what do we think the consequences will be of this vaping duty? <ul class="wp-block-list"><li>For starters. the cost of vaping will immediately increase. This could lead to a decline in vaping rates, and in turn, increase the amount of people smoking again.</li>
<li>Further to the first point, this could increase the amount of people turning to dangerous, illicit vapes on the black market.</li>
<li>This vape duty prices out many younger people from vaping & we know from all the research that unfortunately, many young people have started vaping recently with the rise of single use (disposable) vape devices. Clearly, this trend was not a good thing, and something that this duty is attempting to address. However, this new duty leaves these young people, who are now addicted to nicotine, with a big problem going forward.</li>
<li> Vaping has been shown as a great harm reducer for cigarette smokers, with Public Health England stating it is at least 95% safer than smoking cigarettes. (<a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5b6c3f57ed915d30f140f822/Ecigarettes_an_evidence_update_A_report_commissioned_by_Public_Health_England_FINAL.pdf">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5b6c3f57ed915d30f140f822/Ecigarettes_an_evidence_update_A_report_commissioned_by_Public_Health_England_FINAL.pdf</a>). </li></ul>As mentioned earlier, we would expect many people to turn back to smoking cigarettes when this duty comes into force. For public health, this is a disaster and goes against the government’s plan to create a smoke free generation by 2030.The post <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/the-vaping-products-duty-vpd-what-we-know-what-we-think/">The Vaping Products Duty (VPD) – What we know & what we think.</a> appeared first on <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk">Totally Vapour</a>.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[A licensing framework for the UK vape industry has been put forward to parliament this week. The scheme, which has been designed to allow Trading Standards to tackle the rise of illicit vapes and underage vape sales, would be the first of its kind in the UK.If you’ve been following our <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/blog/">latest news</a>, or keeping up with the recent media coverage, you’ll be aware that single-use disposable vape kits are set to be banned in the UK. The government’s reasons focus on tackling the rise in youth vaping; however, the UK already has regulations in place regarding the sale of vapes to minors, which an outright ban would not solve.Banning legal disposables, and placing further restrictions on responsible vape retailers, will empower and boost the already-thriving black market. There aren’t sufficient ‘boots on the ground’ to deal with the current levels of rogue activity; and the one-off funding proposed by the government to bolster Trading Standards and Border Control is woefully inadequate.Many conscientious vape retailers, like ourselves, have been pushing the idea of a licensing scheme for years. When it became obvious that no such framework would be forthcoming from the government, What are the objectives of the vape retailer licensing scheme?Following consultation with UKVIA stakeholders, Trading Standards officials, vape industry experts, and business owners across the convenience store and supermarket sector, they initiated a potential new legislation model with the following objectives:<ol class="wp-block-list"><li>To create a sustainable and viable funding base for enforcement and inspection functions relating to the vape sector.</li>
<li>To foster a more responsible and accountable sector by tackling key concerns and challenges such as youth access and illicit product sales.</li>
<li>To better enable regulators and Trading Standards to enforce existing and future legislation proactively.</li>
<li>To reinstate trust in the legitimate vape sector and enable vaping to fulfil its full potential in helping the UK hit its smoke-free 2030 ambition.</li></ol>What does the proposed licensing scheme involve?First and foremost, the licensing scheme outlines who would be eligible for a vape retail licence. Currently, anyone has free rein to sell vapes – you can buy them in your local takeaway, the laundrette, a sweet shop, or from your Uber driver. This is a completely ridiculous state of affairs that is creating a black market, exacerbating youth access, and generating media panic – all leading to government overreach. It also puts a tremendous amount of pressure on Trading Standards, which allows the rogue traders to stay under the radar.To qualify for a vape retailer licence, vendors must prove that they:<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Actively prevent the sale of vapes to minors</li>
<li>Only stock compliant products</li>
<li>Operate legally across all areas of their business</li>
<li>Meet their environmental obligations</li>
<li>Train staff in the correct handling and promotion of vaping products</li>
<li>Don’t sell products that are blatantly youth appealing</li></ul>The proposed framework includes a self-sustaining fee structure, plus a fine and four-strike penalty system for any business that breaches the terms of the licence.It will also empower Trading Standards to issue on-the-spot fines to any retailer or distributor caught selling vapes without a licence. The fines would be far more punitive than they currently are, with the highest fine for retailers proposed at £10k. The best deterrent to committing a crime is the real and certain risk that you will be caught. The punishment needs to be severe enough to make sure it’s not a risk worth taking.What are the expected outcomes of this framework?We all want to ensure that adult smokers have access to vaping, which has been proven time and again to be a far less harmful alternative; not to mention the most effective method for successfully quitting tobacco for good.We also want to ensure that the vaping products that adult smokers have access to are safe and legitimate, and that minors don’t have access to them at all.This can only be achieved by proper enforcement, rather than prohibition. The revenue generated from licensing fees alone (not including fines) will deliver upwards of £50m each year to Trading Standards officials, so they can get tough on retailers guilty of underage and illicit vape sales.Not only does this annual sum far surpass the government’s one-off pledge of 30m, it also removes the burden entirely from taxpayers, and puts it onto the vape industry. Why do we want a vape retailer licensing scheme?It may seem like an odd concept that an industry would voluntarily and vehemently push for a scheme that would not only cost money, but also impose mandatory compliance enforcement. However, we feel it’s the only logical way that we can remove rogue traders from the picture; thereby reducing the demand for illicit vapes to be imported, preventing youth access to vapes, and improving the general public perception of vaping.We know that there simply isn’t the resource to enforce the existing legislation, and we are furious that the government’s solution to this is to deprive adult smokers from accessing legitimate vaping products.”Dan Marchant, co-founder of the UK Vaping Industry Association (UKVIA), said:“It doesn’t matter what legislation the government introduces, whether the newly announced ban on disposables or any future restrictions, a robust and balanced licensing system is critical to ensuring the law can actually be enforced and for ushering in a new era of responsibility, accountability and best practice.“Trading Standards has been calling for ‘more boots on the ground’ and a more joined up ‘national picture’ to deal with the issues of underage and illicit vape sales and there is no doubt that the introduction of prohibitive new measures will make this challenge even harder.“The scheme we are proposing is not only self-funding but would be relatively quick and easy to implement and could generate upwards of £50 million in annual funding from retailers alone – this could, in part, be used as a sustainable funding base for enforcement.“If our licensing scheme was in force, the 2,871 retailers identified as being in possession of, stocking or selling illegal vapes through the newly released FOI research would have been fined a collective £7.1m – alarmingly 95% of these rogue traders went ‘unpunished’ under the current system.”What’s next for the licensing scheme?The first phase of the framework creation followed a comprehensive six month consultation period, and the blueprint was distributed to MPs, peers in the House of Lords, Members of the Senedd, Members of the Scottish Parliament, senior civil servants, and health experts, before being unveiled in parliament.A number of MPs have already publicly expressed support for the idea including Peter Gibson MP, Jim Shannon MP, Mary Kelly Foy MP, Mark Eastwood MP and Dr Caroline Johnson MP.We now hope that further political momentum will be generated, and constructive feedback can be gathered to shape the vape licensing scheme towards successful implementation as soon as possible.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Nicotine salts, often abbreviated as nic salts, have emerged as a significant trend in the vaping world. With rapid innovation in the vaping industry, where do nic salts fit in?While nic salts have been used in e-liquids for some years, their popularity surge is more recent, particularly in the US. This surge is closely tied to products like the JUUL closed vaping pod system, which in the US, features e-liquids containing a potent 50% nicotine salts. The EU version adheres to TPD regulations, offering a maximum of 20% nicotine.In response to this demand, we’ve expanded our range of nic salt e-liquids. This guide aims to provide comprehensive insights into nicotine salts, helping you decide if they’re right for you.<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="251" height="200" src="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/images.png" alt="" class="wp-image-95169" srcset="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/images.png 251w, https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/images-150x120.png 150w" sizes="(max-width: 251px) 100vw, 251px" /></figure>Understanding Freebase Nicotine:Before delving into nic salts, it’s crucial to grasp the concept of freebase nicotine, the more common form of nicotine found in cigarettes, nicotine replacement therapies, and traditional vape liquids. Freebase nicotine originated in the 1960s, popularized by Phillip Morris for its ability to enhance the potency of cigarettes.Freebasing involves converting nicotine from its natural salt state to a pure, base form. This process, achieved through the use of ammonia, increases nicotine’s alkalinity, enhancing its potency without altering the dose.Despite its effectiveness in nicotine delivery, freebase nicotine’s high pH level renders it harsh, particularly in high doses, leading to discomfort for many vapers.Nicotine Salt: An Alternative ApproachNicotine salts, contrary to common misconception, do not taste salty nor elevate sodium intake. In chemistry, a salt comprises a positive (acidic) and a negative (basic) component.Nicotine, naturally occurring in tobacco leaves, exists primarily in its salt state. However, to create freebase nicotine, these nicotine salts undergo chemical alteration.Nicotine salts possess a weak base, necessitating modification to enhance their efficacy in e-liquids. By increasing acidity, typically with compounds like benzoic or citric acid, nicotine salts can deliver higher nicotine doses without the harsh throat hit associated with freebase nicotine.<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="311" height="162" src="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/images.jpeg.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-95170" srcset="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/images.jpeg.jpg 311w, https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/images.jpeg-150x78.jpg 150w, https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/images.jpeg-300x156.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 311px) 100vw, 311px" /></figure>This modification results in several benefits:• Enhanced nicotine absorption rate• Lower vaporization temperatures• Smoother throat hitComparing Nicotine Salt and Freebase Nicotine:Now equipped with this knowledge, let’s outline the key differences between nicotine salt and freebase nicotine to aid in your decision-making process.Nicotine Salt:• Contains benzoic or citric acid• Rapid absorption into bloodstream• Smooth at high doses• Limited flavor complexity• Reduced cloud production• Suited for mouth-to-lung vaping• Higher cost per volume• Ideal for high nicotine strengths• Suitable for new vapers and mixed users• Compatible with pod vapes and low-power devices• Requires less liquid for equivalent nicotine hit• Longer shelf life due to slower oxidationFreebase Nicotine:• No additives• Slower absorption rate• Harsh at high doses• Accommodates high flavor complexity• Enables large cloud production• Suited for various vaping styles• Lower cost per volume• Suited for low and medium nicotine strengths• Suitable for vapers with lower nicotine requirements• Requires higher power devices for maximum vaporization• Needs more liquid for equivalent nicotine hit• Shorter shelf life due to faster oxidationSafety Considerations:In terms of safety, the addition of benzoic or citric acid in nicotine salt vape juice doesn’t significantly alter its safety profile compared to standard e-liquid. These acids are naturally occurring in the body, and vaping quantities are unlikely to exceed recommended limits.Choosing the Right Option:Nicotine salt e-liquid might be suitable if:• You aim to quit smoking• Past vaping attempts were unsuccessful• You prefer simpler vaping devices• You desire higher nicotine levelsWe hope this guide equips you with the necessary information to make an informed decision regarding nicotine e-liquids. Should you have further inquiries, our team is available to provide expert guidance and assistance.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Experienced vapers often prefer greater control over their e-liquid, which can involve crafting their own blends, opting for nicotine-free e-liquids, or incorporating their own nicotine shots.Longfill and shortfill bottles offer users the flexibility to customize their nicotine strength.Choosing between the two can be daunting, which is why our team of experts has crafted this blog to compare shortfill vs longfill options and elucidate their differences.This guide aims to assist you in making an informed decision, guiding you toward a satisfying vaping journey.Shortfills:Short-fill e-liquids are flavored nicotine-free alternatives, indicated by “0mg” on the bottle.Packaged in bottles larger than their content, shortfills allow for the addition of nicotine shots. For instance:• 50ml short-fill e-liquids are housed in 60ml bottles.• 100ml short-fill e-liquids come in 120ml bottles.• 200ml short-fill e-liquids are contained in 250ml bottles.By adding nicotine shots, you can achieve a nicotine content level of 3mg, as the remaining space in shortfill bottles accommodates one 10ml nic shot.The pre-made flavor of short-fill e-liquid remains unaffected by the unflavored nicotine shot added.Shortfill e-liquids are available in various PG/VG ratios.Who are shortfills best for?Shortfills are ideal for those seeking value, as they bypass TPD regulations by being nicotine-free, enabling larger quantities to be sold.This is beneficial for sub-ohm and heavy vapers who consume more e-liquid compared to MTL or occasional vapers.Our array of shortfills offers a diverse selection, featuring different bottle sizes and flavors to cater to your preferences.Longfills:Longfill e-liquids typically come in 60ml bottles, with 20ml of flavored liquid provided. The remaining space can be filled with PG/VG and nicotine shots.This grants vapers greater control over their e-liquid, including nicotine levels and PG/VG ratios.Available nicotine strengths for longfill e-liquids include 3mg, 6mg, 9mg, and 12mg.PG/VG ratios influence cloud production and throat hit:• PG (Propylene Glycol) yields thinner liquids with intense flavors and a strong throat hit.• VG (Vegetable Glycerine) produces thicker liquids, offering a smooth vaping experience and voluminous vapor clouds.The post <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/shortfill-vs-longfill-e-liquids/">Shortfill Vs Longfill E-liquids</a> appeared first on <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk">Totally Vapour</a>.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[A <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/">vaping</a>-based nicotine reduction program offers a promising method for smokers aiming to quit smoking traditional cigarettes and shift to a less harmful nicotine delivery system. This program typically involves a phased approach of gradually diminishing nicotine concentrations in vaping liquids over time.The process commonly begins with a high nicotine concentration, such as 20mg, equivalent to the nicotine intake from smoking 20 cigarettes per day. This initial high concentration allows smokers to maintain their accustomed nicotine levels while simultaneously reducing cigarette consumption.As users adapt to lower nicotine levels, they can progressively decrease the nicotine concentration in the vaping liquid. For instance, they might transition from 20mg to 10mg (equivalent to 10 cigarettes per day), then to 3mg (equivalent to 3 cigarettes per day), followed by 1.5mg, until eventually reaching 0% nicotine.This gradual reduction strategy helps alleviate withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with quit smoking, facilitating a smoother transition to vaping and increasing the likelihood of success. Once users have successfully transitioned to using 0% nicotine liquid, they can continue vaping as a non-addictive and relatively harmless alternative. However, it is advisable to discontinue vaping altogether at this stage.<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"><img decoding="async" width="800" height="800" src="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Quit-Smoking-Follow-TV-Reduction-Program-1.jpg" alt="QUIT SMOKING" class="wp-image-93863" style="width:361px;height:auto" srcset="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Quit-Smoking-Follow-TV-Reduction-Program-1.jpg 800w, https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Quit-Smoking-Follow-TV-Reduction-Program-1-600x600.jpg 600w, https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Quit-Smoking-Follow-TV-Reduction-Program-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Quit-Smoking-Follow-TV-Reduction-Program-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https://totally-vapour.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Quit-Smoking-Follow-TV-Reduction-Program-1-768x768.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></figure></div>The post <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/quit-smoking-by-following-totally-vapours-nicotine-reduction-program/">QUIT SMOKING by following Totally Vapours nicotine reduction program.</a> appeared first on <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk">Totally Vapour</a>.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 class="wp-block-heading"></h2>Disposable vapes will be banned in the UK as part of ambitious government plans to tackle the rise in youth vaping and protect children’s health.<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Ban on disposable vapes which have driven alarming rise in youth vaping.  </li>
<li>New powers to restrict vape flavours, introduce plain packaging and change how vapes are displayed in shops so they don’t appeal to children.  </li>
<li>New law will make it illegal to sell tobacco products to anyone born on or after 1 January 2009, delivering on the Prime Minister’s pledge to create a smokefree generation. </li></ul>Disposable vapes will be banned in the UK as part of ambitious government plans to tackle the rise in youth vaping and protect children’s health, the Prime Minister has announced today [Monday 29 January] on a visit to a school.  The measure comes as part of the government’s response to its consultation on smoking and vaping, which was launched in October last year.  Recent figures show the number of children using vapes in the past three years has tripled. Use among younger children is also rising, with 9% of 11 to 15-year-olds now using vapes. The long-term health impacts of vaping are unknown, and the nicotine contained within them can be highly addictive, with withdrawal sometimes causing anxiety, trouble concentrating and headaches. While vaping can play a role in helping adult smokers to quit, children should never vape. Disposable vapes have been a key driver behind the alarming rise in youth vaping, with the proportion of 11 to 17-year-old vapers using disposables increasing almost ninefold in the last two years.    As part of today’s package, new powers will be introduced to restrict flavours which are specifically marketed at children and ensure that manufacturers produce plainer, less visually appealing packaging. The powers will also allow government to change how vapes are displayed in shops, moving them out of sight of children and away from products that appeal to them like sweets.  To crack down on underage sales, the government will also bring in new fines for shops in England and Wales which sell vapes illegally to children. Trading standards officers will be empowered to act ‘on the spot’ to tackle underage tobacco and vape sales. This builds on a maximum £2,500 fine that local authorities can already impose. Vaping alternatives – such as nicotine pouches – will also be outlawed for children who are increasingly turning to these highly addictive substitutes. The government has again reiterated its commitment to bring about the first smokefree generation and introduce legislation so children turning fifteen this year or younger can never legally be sold tobacco.  Smoking is the UK’s single biggest preventable killer – causing around one in four cancer deaths and leading to 80,000 deaths per year – so stopping young people from ever starting to smoke will protect an entire generation, and future generations, from smoking harms as they grow up.  To help ensure the success of the smokefree generation plan, £30 million new funding a year will be provided to bolster enforcement agencies – including Border Force, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) and Trading Standards – to implement these measures and stamp out opportunities for criminals.  The Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, said: As any parent or teacher knows, one of the most worrying trends at the moment is the rise in vaping among children, and so we must act before it becomes endemic. The long-term impacts of vaping are unknown and the nicotine within them can be highly addictive, so while vaping can be a useful tool to help smokers quit, marketing vapes to children is not acceptable.   As Prime Minister I have an obligation to do what I think is the right thing for our country in the long term. That is why I am taking bold action to ban disposable vapes – which have driven the rise in youth vaping – and bring forward new powers to restrict vape flavours, introduce plain packaging and change how vapes are displayed in shops.   Alongside our commitment to stop children who turn 15 this year or younger from ever legally being sold cigarettes, these changes will leave a lasting legacy by protecting our children’s health for the long term.There was overwhelming support among responses to the government’s consultation for a disposable vape ban, with nearly 70% of parents, teachers, healthcare professionals and the general public supportive of the measure.  The government has a duty to protect children’s health, which is why it is taking bold and decisive action on smoking and vaping. This is the responsible thing to do to protect children for generations to come.  Health and Social Care Secretary Victoria Atkins said: Smoking is still the single largest preventable cause of death in England. Almost every minute of every day someone is admitted to hospital with a smoking-related disease. And its costs society £17 billion each year – putting a huge burden on our NHS.  That’s why we are driving the way forward through our smokefree generation plan, which will prevent our children from starting this dangerous habit.  The health advice is clear, vapes should only ever be used as a tool to quit smoking. But we are committed to doing more to protect our children from illicit underage vaping, and by banning disposable vapes we’re preventing children from becoming hooked for life.Vapes should only be used by adults as a tool to quit smoking. They contribute to an extra 50,000-70,000 smoking quits a year in England. As part of the government’s Swap to Stop scheme, almost one in five of all adult smokers in England will have access to a vape kit alongside behavioural support to help them quit the habit and improve health outcomes.  Chief Medical Officer Professor Chris Whitty said: Smoking damages and cuts short lives in extraordinary numbers.  Stillbirths, cancer, asthma, dementia, stroke and heart failure – smoking causes disability and death throughout the life course. If passed, this legislation would have a major public health impact across many future generations.Health Minister Andrea Leadsom said:  We are in the midst of a worrying rise in young people vaping. I want to stop youth vaping in its tracks – and a ban on disposable vapes is central to that. Nicotine is highly addictive – and so it is completely unacceptable that children are getting their hands on these products, many of which are undeniably designed to appeal to young people. Along with tougher enforcement measures, we are making sure vapes are aimed at the people they were designed to help – adults who are quitting smoking.As well as benefitting children’s health, the ban will have a positive impact on the environment. Five million disposable vapes are thrown away each week, up from 1.3 million from last year. Over a year this is equivalent to the lithium batteries of 5,000 electric vehicles.   Environment Secretary Steve Barclay said: Not only are disposable vapes often targeted, unacceptably, at children – they also represent a huge and growing stream of hard-to-recycle waste, with nearly 5 million thrown away every week. This historic announcement will be a powerful tool in support of our efforts to crack down on waste and boost recycling, as well as helping to create the first smokefree generation.The 10-week public consultation on ‘Creating a smokefree generation and tackling youth vaping’, closed on 6 December. Over 25,000 responses were analysed, and the government response sets out plans for upcoming legislation which will be introduced in Parliament shortly.  Creating a smokefree generation goes beyond the harm to public health. The trade in illicit cigarettes, hand-rolling tobacco and other tobacco products has far reaching implications. HMRC estimates that the illicit tobacco trade costs the UK economy around £2.8 billion a year in lost revenue – money that should fund our public services.  Today, HMRC and Border Force will publish a new Illicit Tobacco Strategy, ‘Stubbing Out the Problem’, which:   <ul class="wp-block-list"><li>sets out their continued commitment to reduce the trade in illicit tobacco, with a focus on reducing demand, and to tackle and disrupt organised crime behind the illicit tobacco trade. </li>
<li>highlights the cost to the UK in lost tax revenue and the burden to taxpayers, the undercutting of law-abiding businesses, and the funding of wider organised crime through illicit tobacco sales.  </li></ul>Supportive stakeholder reaction Dame Rachel de Souza, the Children’s Commissioner for England: As Children’s Commissioner, I want all children to grow up healthy and well, which is why I have been calling for disposable vapes to be banned, to protect children and prevent them from becoming addicted. I am absolutely delighted that the Government has listened to the appeals that I, and many others, have made to ban disposable vapes. I also welcome the decision to create far tighter restrictions on marketing and flavours of vapes, so they aren’t so appealing to children and young people. When I asked children a couple of years ago about all aspects of their health and wellbeing, I was shocked and concerned to hear from children as young as 12 who told me that vaping was normalised among their peers – even on school premises. This announcement will help tackle that issue and I know that many children and parents will be extremely relieved.The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) Vice President for Policy, Dr Mike McKean, said:  We’re delighted that the Westminster Government has heard our calls and is rightly prioritising the health and well-being of our children and the planet. Bold action was always needed to curb youth vaping and banning disposables is a meaningful step in the right direction. I’m also extremely pleased to see further much needed restrictions on flavours, packaging, and marketing of vapes, which RCPCH has repeatedly called for. As a respiratory consultant it is not lost on me that smoking remains the single biggest cause of preventable illness and disease in the UK. We know this because we have 60 plus years of research and data on cigarette use on a population level. But the research and data around widespread e-cigarette use is still very much in its infancy. The long-term impacts, especially for children and young people, remain unknown.  Government must swiftly lay the legislation to ensure it can be fully considered in this Parliament. We look forward to seeing more details about these landmark plans, especially in terms of implementation, enforcement, and monitoring.Cllr David Fothergill, Chairman of the Local Government Association’s (LGA) Community Wellbeing Board said: We’re delighted that the Government has listened to the longstanding concerns of the LGA and councils and are taking decisive action to ban single-use vapes.  Disposable vapes are inherently unsustainable products, meaning an outright ban remains the most effective solution to this problem. Single use vapes blight our streets as litter, are a hazard in our bin lorries, and are expensive and difficult to deal with in our recycling centres. Their colours, flavours and advertising are appealing to children and are a risk to the health of young people.  We look forward to working with the Government and others to enforce this ban as well as ensure plans for a smokefree generation are a success.Henry Gregg, Director of External Affairs at Asthma + Lung UK, said: We welcome this robust approach to protecting young people from vaping. Disposable vapes, with their pocket money prices and brightly coloured packaging have contributed to the increase in under-18s taking up vaping, and we support a well thought-out, properly enforced ban on disposable vapes. Immediate action to restrict flavours, packaging, and the display of vapes to reduce their appeal and availability to children and non-smokers is also much needed. If you’re a smoker and you want to quit tobacco, vaping can be a helpful way to give up smoking. But for children and those who don’t smoke, starting to vape isn’t a good idea, especially if you have a lung condition. The plan to create a smoke-free generation is a landmark decision that really shows the Government is putting the health of young people first. It’s one of the most impactful things the Government can do to protect future generations from developing lung conditions caused by smoking. Smoking is the biggest cause of lung disease deaths and today’s decision will save thousands of lives. Now these measures must be implemented as quickly as possible, with sufficient funding, to ensure they can be fully enforced.Dr Ian Walker, executive director of policy at Cancer Research UK, said:  Smoking is the biggest preventable cause of cancer, and research shows that vapes are far less harmful than smoking and can help people to quit. If this legislation is passed, the UK Government should ensure local smoking cessation services are adequately funded, and those trying to quit are given as much support as they need to help them do so. We are also pleased to see that the Government is moving forward with the tobacco age of sale legislation, applying to all tobacco products, taking us one step closer to creating the first smokefree generation.” Libby Peake, Head of Resource Policy, Green Alliance This ban can’t come soon enough, not only for the health of future generations, but also for the health of the planet. The government has followed the science, and this decision will have many environmental benefits. Valuable lithium ion batteries will stop going to waste or winding up as litter, along with all the casings that have been blighting our environment for too long. This means critical raw materials will be preserved for uses where they’re much needed – like renewable energy. The risk of fire from mishandled batteries will be minimised and dangerous plastic pollution will be prevented. This bold move by the government is nothing but good news.Allison Ogden-Newton OBE, Chief Executive of environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy, said:  The announcement of a ban on disposable vapes is great news for the environment. Our surveys show that disposable vape litter has doubled in the past two years alone and last year more than 16% of the sites we surveyed were blighted by these single-use items, posing a significant risk to wildlife and polluting our streets, parks and beaches. An estimated 260 million are thrown away in this country every year, wasting precious scarce resources, including lithium.Gavin Graveson, Veolia Senior Executive Vice President, Northern Europe, said: When faced with an environmental crisis, every product that enters the market should be designed for recyclability. Disposable vapes are a clear example of when products have been designed with no thought for their environmental impact and should be subject to an extended producer responsibility scheme that incentivises the right eco-design.  Millions of disposable vapes have been littered causing environmental damage or thrown in bins where they cause weekly fires in recycling and waste trucks as well as treatment facilities.  We can’t afford to allow more pollution. Veolia’s recycling scheme has already recycled over one million vapes and we support policies that will curb products with no end of life treatment.The post <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/disposable-vapes-banned-to-protect-childrens-health/">Disposable vapes banned to protect children’s health</a> appeared first on <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk">Totally Vapour</a>.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Switching from smoking to vaping is a positive step toward improving one’s health, given the well-established health risks associated with traditional cigarettes. Apart from the broader health benefits, such as reduced risk of lung cancer and other smoking-related diseases, making the switch can also have positive effects on oral health.<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Smoking Stains Teeth:</h4>Traditional cigarettes contribute to yellow and brown stains on teeth and fingers due to the presence of tar. Tar is absorbed by the enamel on teeth, leading to discolouration over time. This not only affects the appearance of teeth but also contributes to the notorious stereotype of British teeth.<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Vaping and Teeth Staining:</h4>Vaping, on the other hand, eliminates the harmful tar found in cigarettes. Tar is a chief culprit in teeth staining and is associated with severe health issues. While vaping doesn’t expose users to tar, it’s essential to consider other factors.<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Nicotine Content:</h4>Nicotine, present in varying amounts in e-liquids, can contribute to teeth staining over time. Nicotine turns yellow when it combines with oxygen. Regular use of nicotine-containing e-liquids may lead to tooth discolouration.Proper dental hygiene, including regular brushing, can help minimize the impact of nicotine on teeth.<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Flavour and Colour Agents:</h4>E-liquids come in a variety of flavours and colours. Prolonged exposure to coloured e-liquids may contribute to teeth staining. Enamel on teeth can absorb substances found in e-liquids.Maintaining good oral hygiene and choosing e-liquids from reputable brands that prioritize quality can mitigate potential staining issues.<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Dental Hygiene and E-Liquid Quality:</h4>Regular oral hygiene practices, such as brushing twice a day, play a crucial role in preventing teeth staining.The quality of e-liquids, including the absence of unnecessary additives like colouring agents, is essential. Choosing products from reputable brands can ensure a higher standard of quality.<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Cost-Cutting Strategies:</h4>While seeking quality e-liquids, there are cost-cutting strategies, such as exploring clearance deals and promotions, which can provide savings without compromising on product quality.<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Final Considerations:</h3>Vaping offers several advantages over traditional smoking, and these benefits extend to oral health. The absence of tar significantly reduces the likelihood of teeth staining, and the switch can contribute to better breath and the elimination of cigarette odour. While considerations like nicotine content and flavour agents exist, maintaining good oral hygiene and making informed choices about e-liquids can help minimize potential issues.It’s important to note that teeth whitening is an option for those concerned about existing discolouration. Overall, the positive impact on oral health is another compelling reason for smokers to consider making the switch to vaping.The post <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk/oral-health-does-vaping-cause-yellow-teeth/">DOES VAPING CAUSE YELLOW TEETH?</a> appeared first on <a href="https://totally-vapour.co.uk">Totally Vapour</a>.
