Electronic Cigarettes

Featured Replies

Hi,

Does anyone know where I can buy an electronic cigarette in Bangkok?

Also, what is the price for this with the cartridges?

Thanks.

Missy :)

There was a news article on this forum about a week ago about these....something about they are not sanctioned by health authorities...and may be banned?

Do a search on the news forum.

Hehe....saw a link at the bottom of this thread.... go to the TVF "Stop Smoking Forum"

^^I read the same!

You lost me on that one. I did see my bosses 'smoking' the things a few weeks ago, but even they seem to have stopped (smoking the electronic things, not the real things...)

Anyway...

Governments around the world are moving to ban this product.

Here's what the Thai health minister has to say about them.

"Public Health Minister Chaiya Sasomsab ordered a study on information of electronic cigarettes to find measures to prevent importing e-cigarettes to Thailand because existing law doesn’t cover the new product.

The e- cigarette consists of a cartridge, an atomizer, and a rechargeable battery. It doesn’t contain tobacco but it has nicotine, propylene glycol, a chemical used in a fog machine, and fruity taste. Each cartridge is the equivalent of 15 conventional cigarettes.

The public health minister said that although e-cigarettes don’t emit smoke, they pose harm to smokers with the level of nicotine higher than found in conventional cigarettes.

He ordered the Food and Drug Administration to conduct a study of e-cigarettes and to discuss with agencies concerned to draw out preventive measures.

Mr. Chaiya said the target group of this new product is..."

15 times more addictive than tobacco!! :D

That means it will be 15 times harder to get off the e-cigarettes.

Gee there's some nasty fuks out there :)
