But manufacturers have already designed new vapes that get around the new law, because while technically reusable, they look like disposables and are priced just as cheaply.
But he thought many would start using the new prefilled pod vape kits the same way they used disposables. “They have just got around the ban. I don’t see the point of having the ban,” he said.
“They’re a proven tool to help people quit smoking,” she said. “But we need to remove all the bright colours and the packaging and marketing that are not completely appropriate for a cessation aid.”
Long-term effects of vapes
NHS advice is that vaping is one of the most effective ways of quitting smoking, although vaping is not completely harmless and we don’t yet know if there are long-term effects.

Disposable brands with brightly colours and branding like confectionary started growing in use about five years ago.
Such products are more popular among younger people, including under-18s, even though it is illegal for them to be sold any vapes.
The stats behind vaping
18 per cent of 11-17-year-olds have ever vaped 7 per cent of 11-17-year-olds are current vapers 2 per cent of 11-17-year-olds are current vapers and have never smoked 5 per cent of 11-17-year-olds are current smokersAs well as the problem of underage vaping, millions of disposable vapes were being thrown away a week. They cause litter and even when properly discarded, they are almost impossible to recycle so the batteries contribute to landfill pollution, leaching pollution into rivers.
The new ban was supposed to solve all these problems. But manufacturers of some of the most popular disposables, like Elfbar and Lost Mary, already have new products in stores that meet the new regulations, but are so cheap and simple to start using, they may well be thrown away after use.

“I really don’t think manufacturers are trying very hard to make sure their customers know it would be cheaper for you to reuse these products, and would obviously be better for the environment to reuse,” she said.
