FDA Rule XXXX to Regulations - ENDS users between 18 to 25 years of age, not allowed purchase or usage of mechanical devices, rebuildable dripping atomizers, or combination there of, sale of Ego Class and Clearomizers only.

/End Sarcasm and Snark/

To all the young guns out there going crazy and not learning reading this, tone it down, do your research, and play safely or not at all, FDA just stomped down its foot, quit giving them anymore ammunition against us.

Thats an Abel clone with a kennedy rda.
I have the same set up.



Do you think exploding mods have anything to do with regulations?

Or do you think they are all about controlling the industries profits, state tobacco funding, and settlement payments?

Do exploding vaping apparatus have anything to do with regulation?
No, absolutely zip, zilch, zero, nothing, nada.

Mostly the failed / failing tobacco MSA, not to mention Zeller's investment portfolio was, possibly still is, 70% BT.

Another youth suffers the Wrath of lack of self education......... and the Market takes a another hit.

This, in the wake of the FDA DEEMING release just adds to their point of view that we all need baby sitting.:grr:

The problem is- most outside of vaping will read this as "another youth suffers from lack of regulation"

We'll never stop kids from being kids, and can't expect them to research like we all do. I think we need to focus on what can be done aside from blaming the user. Not sure what the answer is, but blaming a 17yr old for using something that he didn't think through doesn't seem like the answer.

Vape shops could require a mandatory course on mod building and coil safety before first sale. Kind of like they do when you go to a firing range for the first time.
Many of these kids are getting their stuff either from an adult buying it for them ..then not explaining proper use or getting it off the Internet sales...I would think....most B/M shops I have been in if you look young your carded right away...and if under age your told to leave and not come back till your of age.

Or maybe adults should know their own limits, and educate themselves before sucking on a metal battery tube designed to short a battery to get a nic fix.

The case in the OP was a dumb kid illegally using gear he didnt understand.
There are already laws in place restricting this illegal use.

More laws wouldnt make a bit of difference.

Vape store classes wont help teens who arent old enough to get in the door.
More regulations arent the answer.
You cant fix stupid.

You know me Bad, I think the FDA is full of :censored:, End of Story.:glare:

What laws are you referring to? Something local? I know most decent vape shops won't sell to a minor but, far as I know, it's not actually the law in most places, yet.

Almost all states, if not all, require you to be at least 18, some 19, some 21 to purchase vaping products through state law, the FDA has now made it 18 minimum as federal law.

Was that part of the regulations they put out yesterday? I'm not really up to speed with all that yet. As for the individual states, I knew some had enacted age restrictions but I didn't know that it was getting to be "almost all, if not all" of them yet.

I would be shocked if he new what a battery was .

Kid looks 15 years old , why don't these idiots consider not making it known to the world when something like this happens , it's their mistake after all.
