As many of you have heard, Michigan has proposed a ban on flavored (fruity, sweet, etc.) eliquids.

As posted by the Lansing State Journal: "The vaping ban has not been officially filed but will be effective immediately once complete in a few weeks. Once filed, it will last six months, Whitmer's spokesperson said. Michigan businesses will be given 30 days to comply with the new regulations."

We will be watching this closely to see when it has been officially filed. We will be awaiting the specifics regarding flavors. We will keep you informed as we find out more.

PLEASE NOTE: There may be an increase in processing times as we are experiencing an increase in orders. Michigan orders will not be shipping out the same day as placed for the time being. Thank you for your patience.

Honestly, I'll be surprised if this really goes through, but with all the mis-information being put out there right now, it's hard to tell. I feel the worst for Wlad and Alley, and all the other vape shop owners in Michigan. This ban would put thousands of people out of work, and businesses closed down.

Hi bigbob, I'm hanging in there, just dealing with some severe health issues, but surviving. Thanks for asking! How have you been?

Iv'e been OK, but feeling the effects of aging. I hope you you start feeling better soon. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Hi Friends!

I hoped there’d be some posting after news of the Michigan ban. Thank you, @tyleris12.

After switching flavors constantly for years I’ve found myself vaping only Lemon Cream for the last two years. Gave away or tossed all of my other flavors. I never thought I’d have an ADV. I just ordered 10 large bottles last week but with the news I guess I’d better order 10 more and start thinking about stopping. Since I can’t vape anything over 30VG there really isn’t any other option for good e-juice. I can’t stand the cheaper commercial flavors. Ahlusion has spoiled me!

Having just discovered this great company only recently, I'm pretty mortified about what the state of Michigan is doing. I hope for these folks sake that they might consider a partial relocation so that they can continue to survive if Michigans draconian law comes to pass.

Good to know Ahlusion is still in business. Surprised actually. I thought they were winding down the business, when they closed their retail locations a few years back.

Ahlusion was one of the vendors I purchased from prior to DIY'ing, and despite the occasional glitches with their website, I have fond memories. Hopefully they can still ship to customers outside Michigan, even if the ban goes through on schedule.

 

[bigbob2322]

I will have to get some more juice at the end of the week.

So, the flavor ban isnt in effect yet. They say it will take a couple of weeks to get the "rules" written up. Then once it goes into effect, businesses will have 30 days to comply. If it truly does happen, Ahlusion will not be able to sell any flavored eliquids to anyone, even if the buyer is not in Michigan. Nor will anyone in Michigan be able to purchase eliquids from an out of state vendor.

Believe me, everyone here in Michigan is doing all they can to try and get this stopped, but who knows how much that will help. It amazes me that there are so many deaths a day from smoking related issues, yet no one's been worried about that. I know, it's all about the taxes and money.

I have only purchased from Ahlusion for the last 8+ years, as I have seen their clean room, and trust their products. My heart breaks thinking they may loose their business, even more than me losing my ability to purchase from them. I, too, like @Bukket5 will choose to quit vaping, if they close down. I probably need to anyways, as I've been vaping for 9.5 years now. It's just all very sad.

I'll try my best to keep you all posted as I hear more.

Looks like Michigan isn't the only state that has to worry now. I just watched a video where they said rules will be released in a few weeks, then 30 days to comply, for all of the United States.

Here's one article:

I just went to the AHL site and it is down. It says it is down for routine maintenance.

AHLUSION - A FRESH NEW TASTE

 

[bigbob2322]

It's back up now.

 

[JustWondering1]

It's back up now.

Good. Thanks!

 

[PennyLynn]

Wowee. I had so much saved up I hadn't ordered in months, but I placed a big order yesterday as soon as I heard about the nationwide issues. Ack.

Hi Ahlusionists.

This is a public service announcement:

Hi Ahlusionists.
This is a public service announcement:
National Call to Action - Light up the White House Switchboard

I made my call to the WH this morning after receiving the CASAA email. It takes a few seconds to say:
" Flavored vapor products saved your life; and, “We Vape, We Vote."
I would think that the message would get across if a low percentages of the 9 million US vapers took the time to call.

I just saw a piece on Fox News Channel about the banning fever with a legal opinion that gave me hope. It was on the Shepherd Smith Show. Judge Andrew Napolitano, The FNC's Senior Judicial Analyst said the governments in MI and NY will lose legal challenges to the vaping bans because there aren't any facts to support a ban. I am hoping something will happen to keep the bans from going into effect at all, but at least at this point, I don't see that happening. I am encouraged by Napolitano's opinion that, the ban won't hold up to legal challenge. Surely, the bigger juice makers like AHL and Mr. E will move operations to another more vape-friendly state during the ban?

 

[bigbob2322]

I hope your right.

 

[Jingles]

I just ordered 6 big bottles today. Hoping this will hold me until this all blows over. They have eliminated their rewards program. I don't care. I just don't want to be without my favorites!

 

[JustWondering1]

I hope your right.

Me too! It may not be enough, but I am encouraged by it.
