Joyetech Atopack Penguin SE Review

by

BuyBest.com sent the Joyetech Atopack Penguin Special Edition to me for the purpose of this review. I know this is an older device that’s been around since about August 2017, but BuyBest gave me a choice of about 10 other products, some much newer than this, but the Penguin has been something I’ve been wanting to pick up for a while due to all the positive reviews it gets, so I requested this one.

The Penguin is just a simple all-in-one device designed for beginners or people looking for ease-of-use. There are no wattage adjustments or airflow adjustments.

Is Juul’s Strategy To Combat Underage Use Good For the Industry?

by

You might have noticed lately that the vape company, Juul, has been under a massive attack from just about every media organization in the U.S., big or small. Small local news stations are picking up the stories and big publishers like NYTimes are joining in too.

The main concern that all of these publications are reporting is that “juuling” is becoming an epidemic among teens. They’re making claims that vaping is exposing teens to harmful chemicals like formaldehyde and that vaping can eventually lead teens to addiction and into moving towards smoking. There is already plenty of research (see here, and here, and here, and here) showing that both of those claims aren’t true, but it’s not stopping journalists from saying it.

FDA Seeks Comments on Regulation of Flavors in Tobacco Products

by

The FDA has proposed regulations of e-juice flavors and I wanted to bring it up as we get closer to the deadline for submitting a comment on the Federal Register website.

CASAA and the VTA have also joined forces to develop a template letter that will help you get your own comment started – http://actnow.io/saveflavors

The original deadline was originally in June, but the FDA decided to extend the deadline until July 19, but don’t hold off until the last minute because your comment might take some time to write.

E-Juice Review: Fruit Finale by Fresh Pressed Salts

by

Fruit Finale was sent to me for the purpose of review from CloudCounterVapor.com (get it here), which is both an online vape store and an Austin, TX brick and mortar shop with a big selection of new products.

So Fresh Pressed Salts comes from a company named California Grown E-liquids. ‘Fresh Pressed’ is their first line of what they are calling handcrafted e-juices. I’m not sure exactly what hand-crafted means, because isn’t all of it at first?

Is Instagram’s IGTV a Good Option for Vape Reviewers?

by

There’s some big news in the video and social media world and it’s that Instagram just launched a long-form video platform last week.

People Are Fed Up With YouTube

With all the missteps that YouTube has taken in the last six months, some people have thought it could become the beginning of their end. For example, tons of creators have had their channels de-monetized, channels on particular topics are being shut down, videos are constantly being flagged, and all of this is causing people to go to other platforms.
