    With that data and a what they can collect from your facebook, Phillip Morris can sell the data to Insurance and Health care firms, who can calculate when you will die. The insurance firm can cancel your policy and the healthcare providers can take your last dollars.

    That device is an IoT device. Puff away.

    it has nothing to do with insurance
    they want to know your puff rate and usage rate per day from when you start and how it increases over time dependent on the free base nicotine the user ingests
    the Heets use RECON sheet which is made from the offal of the production and with additives and ammonia added to make it more
    addictive
    they can tweak the level of addictiveness by adding more ammonia
    Jeffrey Wigand : WHO Report
    search this report for 'RECON' and see what these bastards do to keep people addicted to nicotine
    The free base nicotine in Recon cannot be captured by the smoking test machines since it is in the gaseous phase and more addictive than ordinary cigarettes

    Personally I think these pen/cigar vapes, should be illegal as they are electrically unsafe and can harm. A good vape, as several protections, coil short circuit, undercharging, overcharging, battery short circuit as you have put them in the wrong way, auto cut off, so if you have been firing it for too long (say in your pocket).... also some have rate limiter to cut of puf time per minute.

    Those pen they are unregulated and no have protection, They are dirt cheap like HK$40 vs HK$350 of what a normal vape costs. The big risk is when someone puts a battery that has no protection. But typically these things are blow up as they are dropped and the short circuit the battery or the button gets stuck or you leak juice into it and then is firing constantly... until they catch fire or the battery blows up.

    Feeling Lucky?

    I personally wouldn't touch a pen/cigar vape that doesn't have a screen and adjustable power, as it most likely means it has no protection.

    Advert seen:
    Wanted
    Human Lab Rats
    We are seeking human lab rats to test our range of untried, untested and potentially pathogenic Electronic Nicotine Pyrotechnic Delivery systems.(ENPDS)
    Our units contain between 5% to 43% nicotine levels (fuck, we actually have no QC or inkling how much shit is in there)
    We cannot advertise them as cessation devices since that requires expensive and extensive testing and to date not one product in the world has managed to obtain this approval.
    So, WTF, we just sell them to morons who are willing to pay us for the untested explosive shit while the tobacco industry pays us for every addict.
    Our ENPDS are guaranteed not to explode unless you put a battery in them.
    One advantage is that nicotine, being a Part 1 poison is a natural insecticide, so the flies will not settle on you.
    We will provide you a sample ENPDS unit and 20 refill cartridges together with an evaluation sheet.
    Please enter your blood type and next of kin on the sheet before commencing testing and email to:

    HKD$460 per strip, just picked up 6 strips in MK. All I do is WhatsApp the guy in the morning, and then we arrange a pick up time.

    Oh, and as a heads up, like Thailand, don't bring your iQos to Taiwan. I found this while searching the internet, dated January this year (you might need to use a translator):

    爰於相關機關未確認產品屬性前,仍 未開放進口物品。

    In other words, give it more time
