Big vape firms launched a range of reusable models that are very similar to the most popular disposable vapes and sold at similar prices.
By adding a replaceable nicotine pod and a USB recharging port, they can be sold as reusable, but Mr Wright suspects many are still being thrown away.
Well that totally couldnt have been predicted...?
- Most of the corner shops I've been to don't even sell the refills, just the devices.
  They need to jack up prices on the latter, and maybe enforce a rule requiring nicotine refills to be sold separately from devices
  
  I suspect the device will last about as long as one or two refills anyway. This would be why they're so cheap compared to the older ones.
