flavor ban

[Tyson]

I'm a proponent of flavored vape juice. Does anyone know or have any inside info of  what is going to happen with our flavors?  I mean if they shut down shops serving flavors. Are they going to shut down online as well.

Time will tell

[Bebop]

Right now it depends on where you are

and, if this federal ban happens. 

 

but here's a snap shot of what is happening locally in Michigan...

Effective Oct 2 (I believe, have heard different dates) NY has banned all but cigarette flavors, and just heard last night Mass has banned all ecigs including hardware, not just juices.

From the CASAA newsletter a couple days ago... it looks like many states and a few cities are considering full-ban on ALL vaping products, not just flavors... all of these will be challenged in court, I hope:

• CT - (Pending) - “State Leaders Call for Ban on Vaping, e-cigarette products.” (Sept. 13)
• CA - Emily Deruy (The Mercury News) - “San Jose councilwoman proposes ban on vaping products.” (Sept. 15)
  • Find your council district here.
  • City Council member list and contact info, here.
• CA - (Heads Up) - “Governor Gavin Newsom Signs Executive Order to Confront Youth Vaping Epidemic.” (Sept. 16)
• MI - (Pending) - “LaFave: Unwise unilateral executive action must be stopped.” (Sept. 18)
  • Related - “Michigan officially bans sale of flavored e-cigarettes.” (Sept. 18)
• OH - (Heads Up) - “Gov. Mike DeWine says he’s looking into a statewide ban on flavored e-cigarettes.” (Sept. 17)
• TX - San Antonio (Heads Up) - “EXCLUSIVE: S.A. Could Become First in Texas to Ban ‘Fruit Flavored’ Vaping.” (Sept. 19)
  • Find your city council district and council member, here.
• SC - (Pending) - “SC Lawmakers consider ban on flavored e-cigarette, vaping products, raising minimum age.” (Sept. 17)
• MS - (Pending) - “AG Hood looks to ban vaping in Mississippi.” (Sept. 19)

I did a flavor inventory yesterday, I have about 4,000 ml of flavoring. I use about 20% flavor in my DIY juices so I seem to have enough flavoring to make 20,000 ml of juice. Assuming I go through 10 ml of juice per day (I don't think I go through that much)  I have enough flavoring to last about 5 1/2 years.

The unintended consequences of a flavor ban would be some people might use grocery store flavoring to flavor their juice, grocery store flavoring is not meant for vaping, and could have ingredients that could be harmful if inhaled.

I cant see how they can pull off a flavoring ban

If you live in NY State you have a few more days to get stocked up to last out the 90 days.

Your welcome Bebop I was happy when I watched/read the info

A judge in NY issued a stay on the ban of flavored juices while an appeal brought by local companies is heard. We still have our flavored juices for now.

And unintended consequences there will be... (Even something as benign as seatbelt laws have been shown to have unintended consequences.) Most likely many will be driven back to good old-fashioned cigarettes, too.

Reminds me of the fact that some southern states still have dry counties, I very much doubt it stops anybody from drinking.

The goofy Oregon governor imposed a temporary 6 month flavor ban in Oregon, it only took the Oregon court of appeals a few days to put a stay on the law.

[Harry The Great]

Its ridiculous! Flavors have a lot of benefits, i adore nicotine but i cant stand tobacco flavor. How should i satisfy my needs? the only vape juice that i prefer to use is this amazing <removed spammy link> vape juice, hope they will not ban them too.
