Hello Ohm Boy fans! We know many of you appreciate staying informed about the latest developments in the vaping world, so we wanted to share some important updates regarding the regulations surrounding disposable vapes here in the UK.
There's been a fair bit of chatter recently about the future of single-use devices, and we now have confirmation of some significant changes that will impact the vaping landscape. Let's dive into what you need to know.
The Lowdown: Restrictions on Certain Disposable Vapes from June 1st, 2025
The key takeaway is this: from the 1st of June next year, it will become illegal to sell single-use disposable vapes and those rechargeable disposable devices where you can't swap out the coil.
Essentially, this means that the typical throw-away vapes that are pre-filled and designed to be discarded once empty, along with rechargeable versions that are sealed units without replaceable coils, will no longer be available for purchase.
What This Means for You, Our Valued Customers:
-
Say goodbye to single-use sticks: If you've been using these for their convenience, now's the time to start thinking about alternative options before the June deadline rolls around.
-
Rechargeable disposables with integrated coils are also on the way out: Even if you can recharge your disposable, if the coil is built-in and can't be changed, retailers won't be able to sell them after the specified date.
-
A push towards more sustainable vaping: The aim of these regulations is to encourage more environmentally conscious vaping habits. We anticipate a greater emphasis on devices that utilise replaceable coils and refillable e-liquid systems.
Exploring Your Vaping Alternatives:
While these changes might seem like a big shift, the good news is that there are plenty of fantastic alternatives available that offer both a great vaping experience and a more sustainable approach:
-
Pod Kits: These are a popular choice, using replaceable pods that can be either pre-filled or refilled with your favourite e-liquids (like our very own Ohm Boy!). Refillable pod systems give you more control over your flavour and nicotine strength, and they often work out more cost-effective in the long run.
-
Mod Systems: For those who like a bit more power and customisation, mod kits offer a wide range of options. They use replaceable coils and tanks that you fill yourself, allowing for a truly tailored vape.
