The worst thing about this is that now the Vic govt. have put the jackboot down, it sets a precedent for other states/countries/interested parties to do the same. Now, people who may have been looking at e-cigs as an alternative may look at this as proof positive that e-cigs are the devil's...

So that approach would seem to have more similarities with the legislation governing the smoking of marijuana, and the sale of "smoking implements". It's legal to buy a ...., it's been decriminalised in some (all?) states to own a couple of dope plants, but it's illegal to put the two...

Does this mean that juice will still be legal?

This has all seemed to come out of the blue somewhat. It appears quite sneaky to rapidly bang this through without any fanfare on new year's eve. I guess they're hoping it'll pop right under the radar.

Nicely worded Trumpy. My understanding is that when an MP receives official correspondence, they have to respond to any of the questions asked. It'll be interesting to see his response, let us know if you get one.

Does anybody else see the irony here?

You just can't win with the anti-smoking lobby. They've got that one-eyed self righteous approach, and the fanatical zeal to ruin everyone's fun. A mate just emailed this to me, not sure which paper it came from: Battery powered cigarettes put out Wednesday, December 31, 2008 » 12:10pm...

It was a similar deal with a company (CSR) that ran some asbestos mining operations here in Australia. Throughout the fifties and sixties the company had been informed multiple times of the links between asbestos and mesothelioma, but they chose to ignore the research, and continued operations...

Saltpetre is used for that (Pottasium Nitrate). I believe it's in the paper, and possibly also in the tobacco. Roll your own tobacco goes out if left unattended (without saltpetre), but tailor made cigarettes do not go out (they contain saltpetre). A couple of things to note with Saltpetre: 1)...

I've been boiling a kettle, and holding the atomiser over the steam using a set of tongs. I give it a two or three goes, and shake out the liquid, globs of brown juice come out, and I blow through the battery end as well. Then I let it sit for an hour or so to dry with the cartridge side down...

I only had minor dealings with bestecig.com (I bought a smallish order of juices from them). I found them to be very helpful, easily contactable for questions, friendly, and I never had to wait very long for a reply (even on weekends). The postage cost works out OK once you have a few items in...

Yep, the Aussie Peso has dropped ridiculously considering the fact that as a nation we are still in reasonable financial shape compared to other countries. Before the drop, it was A$1 = US$0.95 or so. Now it's dropped to US$0.64 With the current resources boom here (admittedly, the resources...

I've only had time to try the Marlboro, Hilton and 555 flavours. So far, I'm tending towards Marlboro and possibly 555. Too early to tell, and I haven't really conducted a proper test. But the flavour is definitely there, as is the sensation of smoking a cigarette when it hits you in the back of...

I second that Paka! Cheers, for all your hard work and the effort you've out in to get this happening. Let me know what the extra cost was for my postage and I'll get it to you, you shouldn't have to wear a loss for this. I still reckon you should have tacked on a few bucks per order for your...

Top effort mate. Cheers for doing all this.
