Someone vaped in the bathroom and set off the smoke alarm.

I'm surprised it took this long, honestly. It's sad though that folks are so attached to their nicotine they can't make it for 2-3hrs. If it's that difficult just use an alternative such as snus in something like 16mg.
He should have blown his cloud with his face in the flushing toilet. With any luck they would both get sucked right out.

He should have just not vaped on the plane like an adult...
Something is not right. I don't think an e-cig can set off a smoke alarm. And there is no mention of a citation. Flight crew usually will investigate immediately and hand a citation to the passenger while the alarm is reset and the flight continues as normal. If the pilot had enough concern to make an emergency landing than I'm thinking that the alarm malfunctioned and would not turn off.
I think an e-cig is being blamed for a malfunction because the investigators can't find a better explanation
Well, here's a novel thought: they could just allow people to vape in their seats. It's not a cigarette, there is no smoke, so it's not going to give any ANTZ cancer. If they actually TREATED their passengers like adults, then their passengers would no doubt BEHAVE like adults.
As for going 2-3 hrs without a vape? Nope. That's why I'll probably never set foot on an airplane again, at least until airlines get their heads out of their buttocks about vaping. But then, I had already reached this decision when the TSA decided that anyone getting on an airplane was a candidate for a grope fest.

Is your smoke alarm optical or ionizing. Optical alarms are triggered by vapor.Because I had to see if it worked I've been blowing it at my smoke detector and nothing is happening.
