      I would rather they use reusable vape batteries you fill with juice.

        Again, I’m not throwing any lithium into a landfill.

          The people who used these DISPOSABLE e-cigarettes as directed sure do.

            I’m not saying the batteries I’m currently using are reusable, I have just made sure nothing has gone to a landfill.

              What problem do you have with making sure no one puts the batteries into a landfill?
