Default Hmmmm......

Ok, I'm sure if I read through 1012 posts, I'd probably find the answer, but I'm lazy. (And fat and dumb too, but that's a different story )

Why are there no atomizers manufactured in the U.S.? Is it a "infringement" issue? I know J.C. produces juice in the U.S., but no hardware seems to be made here.

I suspect supplies are going to remain an ongoing issue as the popularity of these things grow.

Also, sorry so serious. Next post I promise to say something sarcastic and amusing. :P

I think there are a number of factors. Firstly it is hard to compete with China. Also vaping is still uncommon and therefore the market is still small. I doubt many companies are willing to invest in setting up an e-cig based manufacturing plant with a probable major ban on all things e-cig coming into effect.

So basically, if I can find 60 12-year old's that can work 18 hours a day, I could manufacture my own brand of atomizers?

(Just kidding Y'all. I know you have be 13 before you really hit your slave-labor peak period)

They are plentiful if you want to order them directly from China, cheaper too. It just takes longer to get them.

We are working on having them made in the US. We have engineers looking into the dynamics and functionality on how to produce them in the US. When we find an engineering company that can replicate the personal vaporizers, and make them better, we will let the world know! Right now it is a tireless battle trying to get it made here!
