The Trump administration is preparing to ban a range of e-cigarette flavors popular with young vaping consumers, but the industry says there is another issue that could cause it a bigger problem.
But a lobby group representing the vaping industry warned that the focus on flavor bans is distracting from a major regulatory issue that could amount to an effective"nationwide ban" on the use of e-cigarettes.
"We have been fighting the PMTA deadline for months, but the issue has been ignored by the vaping community because of the emphasis on the flavor ban threats. If the deadline is reached, the PMTA will effectively produce a vaping ban nationwide. The USVA said the second important issue is the difference between close and open pod vaping systems. The closed pod systems use pre-filled disposable cartridges for e-cigarettes and are highly popular among young consumers. Open systems allow users to insert vaping liquid themselves with refillable cartridges.
