From Michael
Good morning Phil,
I wanted to say thank you for your Smoker’s Show and all your reviews.
I’m 44 and been smoking for close to 30 years. I have tried switching to vape several times over the years and just hasn’t worked for me. Until I found your show I thought my only options were big sub ohm tanks and low nic because that’s all I see out there and none of that worked for me. I just bought a Smok Nord and 12mg Naked 100 juice and so far I love it! Next week I’m going to order your Kroma A kit with the Zenith tank and really looking forward to giving it a go. Again thank you and the Greek for all you guys do! Have great day and keep up the great work.
TONIGHT’S SMOKER’S SHOW UPDATE
Dimitris received a phone call as we started up the show tonight. It was a family emergency and he’s on his way to the hospital. At this time, I don’t have any additional information.
Tonight’s episode will be postponed and we’ll let you know when it will be here and on our Facebooks.
Let’s keep him in our thoughts and hope everything is ok.

FROM THE VTA – NY Assembly Flavor Ban Update
June 19, 2019
For that reason, we are continuing our call to action and asking that, if you haven’t already, please click here to contact your state Assemblymen and tell them how important flavors are to you and your business.
We are rapidly nearing the end of the NY session. Even though we are looking good, our team on the ground does not want any let up.
And then this… One reason we are fully engaged to the bitter end is because of things like this. Yesterday, Senators tried to move SB 6076 on the Senate floor. The bill would have placed a 2% cap on nicotine content but only for e-liquids manufactured in the State of New York. This ill-conceived bill would have killed NY e-liquid manufacturers. VTA’s team immediately went to work lobbying the Senate sponsor, Senate members, as well as key Senate staff to have the bill held on the floor. Our lobbying team will continue to monitor this situation as well as educate members and staff on the unintended consequences on this bill and its impact on New York businesses and continue to work to have SB 6076 held on the Senate floor.
This is but another example of why we at VTA never give up and never let up. We’ve been through far too many of these battles in far too many states to do anything other than finish strong.
Thank you,
Vapor Technology Association
LATEST FROM REGULATOR WATCH – NGO vs. FDA | Inside the Legal Battle that Could Shut Down Vaping
Here’s the latest from Brent Stafford at Regulator Watch:
In a bewildering turn of events the U.S. vaping industry is facing a mortal threat, resulting from a lost court case, in a legal battle it was not even a party to.
A group of public health NGO’s sued the U.S. Food and Drug Administration challenging the regulator’s authority to extend certain compliance deadlines governing premarket tobacco applications that must be submitted, in order for vaping products to stay on the market. FDA lost the court case, but the biggest loser could be the U.S. vaping industry.In this edition of RegWatch hear Azim Chowdhury, the industry’s top regulatory lawyer, explain the machinations of the court case and how the industry could be facing a sudden ten-month PMTA filing deadline, which would devastate vaping as we know it.

ATTENTION NY – IMPORTANT!! – FROM THE VTA – Act Now: NY Assembly Flavor Ban Alert
New York Assembly Flavor Ban Alert
– Read and Act Now –
June 17, 2019
The VTA and its lobbying team, the Parkside Group, have worked throughout the session to educate Senate and Assembly members on the value of vapor products and importance of flavors to New York residents. That groundwork has paid off thus far as the flavor ban bill has been held.
In fact, three weeks ago, our team got a heads up that the flavor ban bill was going to be placed on the agenda for a hearing the following week. Our team immediately acted to ensure that did not happen. Avoiding that hearing was essential to our final push to ensure that the flavor ban did not move.
HOWEVER, with three days left in the session, we just received some new information.
Please share this email and/or the link below with everyone you know in New York and let’s make sure that the Assembly does not move the bill.
CLICK HERE to find your legislator and tell them to VOTE NO on A47.
Thank you,

A BATTERY MOOCH POST: Plastic wrap changes for LG batteries
LG Chem is changing the outer plastic wrap for its round batteries. I’ve only seen it on one type of battery so far but it seems that it will be on all of them eventually.
The changes include adding a 2D barcode box, adding warning text, and changing model numbers to match international naming standards.
Here’s are images of LG Chem’s announcement: https://imgur.com/a/QtLVCKB
This DOES NOT mean the LG batteries with the older wraps are “bad”. This DOES NOT mean the performance of any LG batteries has changed. There WILL eventually be fakes using this new wrap format. Do not assume any LG battery with the new wraps has to be genuine.
That’s everything I know as of now.
