End of an era
Les Leung
Sacramento, CA
Feb 10, 2017 — It is the end of an era, and a clear sign that no, we do not have until 2018. Today I learned that provape, manufacturers of the provari, one of, if not the most popular american made mod, is closing its doors. I don't own a provari, and I have no affiliation to the company, but I recognize them as a pillar of the
vaping industry, and I salute them for the people they have helped over their years in business.
They are not the first company to close its doors and they won't be the last. So, to everyone who has said, calm down, it doesn't go into full effect until 2018, I will say what I've always said: Just because it could be available until then, doesn't mean it will be.
I fear more and more companies are going to be squeezed out by local laws, lack of innovation, and uncertainty about the future of the industry.
Speak up. Contact your representatives. Contact the administration. Talk to your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers. Make them understand what
vaping is and what it has done for you.
