Young adults and many older aged peopleDISORDER OR RELATED DISEASE enjoy cartoons and candy just as much as children do.FROM VAPING, YOU KNOW THAT?! There is also no evidence marketing this way influences kids (from 6 and up) to vape.THERE’S NICOTINE IN THATFLAVOUR, WHICH MEANS YOU’RE Any particles that are not exhaled, do get absorbedGOING TO BECOME ADDICTED AND into the lungs yes...but they do not just form a puddleTRANSITION TO SMOKING OR WEED OR solid mass of liquid. Also, its on a very small scaleAS IT’S A GATEWAY PRODUCT! in which water particles get absorbed, and water gets absorbed into your lungs, even in the shower. Lastly, to this day, no vaper anywhere has contracted or suffered from a condition similar to “Water on the lungs”. The nicotine in e-juice is a much purer form of the substance and does not create an addiction because it is not mixed with 4000+ chemicals as found in a regular cigarette. There’s also nicotine in tomatoes, potatoes, tea-leaves, eggplants and other fruits and vegetables...so if you eat too many vegetables will you become a smoker and pot-head by that same logic?PAGE 7

new smoking regulations, what does this mean for you? I’ve you’re a former smoker who has transitioned to vaping who’s concerned for his/her health and wellbeing, if you’re a non smoker and just enjoy the the hobby because its enjoyable and sociable... you’ll come to understand the hobby we enjoy aswell as cherish so much could become illegal or atleast extremely regulated in 2018. Everyone will be effected. Though there is no official word yet, but looking at the new report layed out by Health Department Minister; Aaron Matsoledi, although giving a bleak future to the trade and consumation of tobacco and cigarettes, it could collectively “snowball” and bring Vaping and fellow vapers down with it as an effective and alternative industry to smoking and smokers. This is serious news as the studies around vaping boast a significant increase in the overall level in the safety surrounding e-cigarettes (up to 95% safer than standard cigarettes). Vaping in South Africa, is not regulated as of yet, though vapers and vendors alike have taken it upon themselves to perform and undertake their own safety standards, such as incorporating Clean Rooms/Labs with ISO-Standard approved ratings for cleaner and safer industry standard juice production...which shows vendors are taking production seriously, so when and IF this community is slapped with a regulation, banning the sale and marketing of e-cigarettes lumped into the same category as smoking, the community is coming prepared. Ontop of this, VPASA (The Vapour Products Association of South Africa (VPA)) which holds the interests and well-being of the community at heart, will also be coming to the aid of vapers in the much likely event the industry becomes regulated. It is very easy to clump vaping and smoking together because they look so similar,but truth is they couldn’t be further apart and this is why government needs to research and investigate this regulation seriously and maturely before enforcing it.PAGE 9

(Exerpt from IOL)“One hundred percent smoke-freepublic spaces.”The removal of smokingareas in restaurants and clubs.Totally uniform packaging forall cigarette and vape brands,adornedwith warnings and pictures of diseasedorgans. The removal of all smokingadvertisements, including for e-cigarettesand vapes. These are the key propositionsby Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi as hisdepartment fights to amend the TobaccoProducts Control Amendment Act in a bidto lower smoking rates countrywide.The plans to change legislation around smoking and vaping have been in the pipeline for months, but this week(Nov 11th) the Department of Health revealed it would be submitting its plans to the cabinet early next year. SaveraKalidan, executive director of the National Council Against Smoking, has been in consultation with the departmentin recent weeks, ironing out the legislation. For her and her organisation, it can’t be enforced soon enough.According to Kalidan, the concept of “plain-packaging” has been implemented in five or six countries so far, andin Australia, it’s been proven to lower the number of smokers countrywide, as well as prevent non-smokers frompicking up the habit.If the amendments are made, all cigarette boxes will be beige, or brown, use one font to determine the brand, andhave pictures of diseased organs suffering from the effects of smoking. “Or even the image of a man in the throwsof erectile dysfunction,” said Kalidan. It would likely apply to non-combustible cigarettes, like vapes, which wouldalso be affected by the new legislation.The same advertising restrictions on cigarettes would apply to vapes and e-cigs, they would no longer be soldto those under the age of 18, and they would not be usable in public spaces. However, in March, when plain-packaging legislation was suggested to the company, it threatened to shut down operations in South Africa.At the time, Joe Heshu, BAT’s head of external affairs in Southern Africa, told Business Report the new rulesthreatened the South African branch’s financial viability. The Health Department has also called for 100% smoke-free public spaces, meaning the removal of smoking areas, and insists that smokers be at least 10m from anentrance or exit. It’s a significant change, but Kalidan said it’s fundamental to both the health and economy ofSouth Africa. The department agrees, and national spokesperson Popo Maja said on Friday the plan was to reducelung cancer and other smoking-related diseases.After the legislation has been presented to Parliament,opportunities for public commentary on the amendmentswill be opened, and one organisation likely to fight againstit is the Free Market Foundation. Director Leon Louw hasspent years fighting against tobacco legislation, claiming itis an attack on the personal freedom of citizens, an affrontto the dignity of smokers, and an infringement ofconsumer rights.On Friday he described the attempts to demonise smokingand smokers as an infringement on the right to human dignity and the right to bodily integrity.“I have the right to treat my body in an unhealthy way. It is my choice. There are many other bigger killers in thecountry. Obesity, Aids, alcohol. But you don’t see legislation forcing people to eat better, use condoms or prohibitfast foods.“Why not enforce compulsory exercise, condoms, eating healthily? Because that infringes on personal freedom.”The government had every right to encourage people to live healthier, but this was not persuasion, but rathercoercion, he said.Regarding the plain-packaging approach and ban on advertising, Louw said this infringed on a consumer’s right toinformation.Attempts to contact British American Tobacco (BAT) about the proposed legislation yesterday were unsuccessful.

E-juice. Liquid. Blends. The insatiable substance vapers desire and require to experience new combinations of flavor is what not only keeps the community fresh and constantly itching to try something new, but leaves a certain niche or taboo market open for everyone willing to put their palet to the test in search of the next “trending” juice or ADV. No matter how you look at it, when you build your coil, own the gear, prime your cotton and hit the fire button, if you’re juice doesn’t match up...you’re wasting your time and missing out. However, it’s not always so easy and fun to keep things safe. With the rise of “Fake” or “Fong Kong” juices being imported from China and sold in local markets, the syndicate of these juices is an unstoppable force in the immovable object that is the vape industry. That being said, its up to you what juices or blends you purchase at the end of the day, but it doesn’t mean you should just buy juice that is 60% the discounted price of the original without second thought, there are other things to consider like: - What kind of chemicals are in the blend? - Was the juice made in an ISO-Approved lab? - Where was the juice made? - Why is it so cheap to begin with? Granted, people who are bold enough to vape these juices do report back to say they were fine and experienced no sickness after ingesting. However, just because we CAN buy fake juice, doesn’t mean we should. With that said, here’s a few reasons why you should support the originals. 1) original vendors lose out Many talented mixers in the community spend weeks and sometimes months at a time perfecting their blends to please their loyal and new customers with something distinctive and original. Combining variants of industry approved ingredients that no casual vaper would or even could take the time to make themselves. The knowledge and effort that went into creating the blend, only for it to be ripped-off and sold for next to nothing while the original vendor doesn’t see a dime is wrong. Although there’s a big difference between cloning and selling, if a vendor makes a great juice, pay your mutual respect and purchase the blend that was crafted with the vendors hard work and DIY knowledge it took to create the juice. If you’re cloning a juice for your own personal use, that’s where it should stay. In this regard, chances are an expensive juice, is priced the way it is, is because it has the L’OREAL slogan aptly attached: Because its worth it. Anyone can price out a juice and slap a “Premium Blend” on the label, but with that price point comes the assurance from the vendor the liquid was produced in a safe and clean environment, with quality ingredients...something not promised when you purchase fake-juice, as you have no idea where it was made or what chemicals went into its production...and thats the problem.PAGE 13

2) Unknown substancesThe packaging may look near identical to the original and may cause younot to second guess or question your purchase...but for the fong-kong label tomention the usual ingredients; VG,PG and Nicotine...what else is inside? If the personbehind the counter can’t tell you or refuses to divulge what is being sold to you,that should be a first red-flag and a clear indication they are only interested in thesale and not even the safety of the customer at heart and there is a real riskof getting sick, developing an allergy or some other health related affliction.Varying ingredients of acetoin, diketones and diacytl may cause certain vapersto raise their eyebrows and question why these buttery compounds are used infake juices, even if the juice itself may not require these chemicals, is dodgy.In contrast to this, ingesting Diactyl is not lethal to vapers unless used in EXTREMEexcess, however there is a general stigma to steer clear of Diactyl based liquids.3) DAMAGE TO an INDUSTrY With mention of fake juice syndicates effecting the sales of vendors, the illegal production and sale of these juices hurt an entire local industry that provides and support local mixers a certain income made from selling and marketing their craft. Because the knock-off variants are significantly cheaper than their original counterparts, sometimes as close to a 50-70% reduction in price, the influx of chinese produced blends increase in demand to whoever is willing to take a gamble on these blends.4) YOU'RE PROMOTING the tradeIt sounds far-fetched, but by purchasing knock offjuices, you’re endorsing the syndicate that operatesin secrecy and tactile precision. With the numerousstores being targeted and broken into for vape gearand other goods, juices especially can be rebottled,relabled and resold while for a massive discounton production costs without having to produce orattempt at cloning blends themselves.Adjacent to this, syndicates can simply add theirown flavours or chemicals to the juice to change itscomposition as to avoid it being labelled as “stolen”.5) the double-standard is set You can’t say its socially OK to endorse cloning of one knock-off product and not the other. Granted, one product is an ingested consumable and another is a consumer product which should leave the window for argument open saying “the one is much safer than the other, and you won’t get sick from vaping on a knock-off mod/tank.” Fair point, as both products have their uses to the target market. But it’s very common for vapers to defend cloned mods and etc...but not for juice and even batteries as both (more so batteries) can be prone to harm given the wrong person using them. The double-standard in the community of vapers is that “its ok to clone some things, but not other things”. If we want to encourage a clean sale community for others to be part of, all things clone and knock-off from mods, to RDA/RTDA etc... all need to come from one place and one place only: The original vendor.

Prior to writing the DIY blend section of the mag, I was a little worried of what I was going to include. Everyone nowadays seems to have a bubblegum, fruity or milkshake blend in their pocket or some variant stored in their archive of recipes at their disposal. Nearing my own personal deadline for the digi-mag (as a 1 week project had turned 4 week, because life...and games) I was fortunate enough to be part of a small mixing session thru my DIY whatsapp group, with members bringing more than enough to share and screw around with for hours...I finally made some very decent ADV’s and I think you’re going to like them too.
