How the Logic brand is working with the FDA to meet new regulations

Combustible cigarettes have had a devastating impact on public health, leading to tobacco-associated cancers, emphysema, and heart disease, which is responsible for almost half a million deaths in the U.S. per year. E-cigarettes have managed to diminish some of the harmful effects of smoking, but in recent years, have received pushback from the government for further regulation. So, here are the most recent developments in how e-cigs manufacturers and retailers are working with the Federal Drug and Food Administration (FDA) to gain approval as smoking cessation aids. 

Meeting the requirements for ENDS manufacturers

Since late 2016, the Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) gained regulatory authority over all Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS), including e-cigarettes, vapes, e-liquids, e-cigars, e-pipes, and e-hookahs, which meant that this government agency would handle all of the managerial and legal requirements that would be set in place for the manufacturers of e-cigarette products, such as the Logic vape pen

Where it stands, all makers on the market need to meet the following criteria:

  • Register their brand and submit a list of all products, including labeling and advertisements. 
  • Submit tobacco health documentation. 
  • Submit full ingredient listings of all e-liquid products. 
  • Include the required warning statement on all packaging and advertisements for ENDS and e-liquids stating, “WARNING: This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.” 

Logic is one of the five shortlisted brands that have been allowed to continue sales throughout the U.S. due to their compliance with the above guidelines. 

Successfully utilizing premarket review requirements 

Premarketing authorization requirements took effect on August 8, 2016, requiring manufacturers to gain authorization by the FDA before their products would continue to be sold on the market. Ultimately, this FDA revision will take up to a one-year period (from May 12, 2020), where vapers will be able to buy Logic vape pens and other e-cigs and e-liquids online while the manufacturers are complying with ongoing regulations to be deemed as safe, smoking cession aids. So, by 2021, Logic will receive its official authorization as a stop-smoking treatment and will continue to provide ex-smokers with both tobacco and menthol e-cig options.

Restricting access youth have to ENDS

While it’s easy to buy Logic vape pens online and in-person from an accredited retailer if you’re over the age of 21, I Love Ecigs is working hard to ensure that stop-smoking aids remain in the hands of the ex-smokers who need them. We check that all purchasers are allowed to buy e-cigarettes in accordance with the regulations under the Tobacco Control Act and enforce, through marketing, that our products contain nicotine and should only be used by adults to transition away from combustible cigarette smoking. 

Conducting manufacturer and retailer checks

As an accredited retailer and licensed e-cig vendor we carry a Tobacco Wholesale license and online sales license, which allows us to continue to distribute Logic Disposable Electronic Cigarettes, Logic Power Series, Logic Advanced Pro Vapor Systems, and their cartomizer and capsule refills, to customers across the U.S. So, as long as you vape Logic and enjoy our amazing customer service, you will be able to grab hold of your favorite products for years to come.

What makes vaping more convenient than smoking combustible cigarettes?

Aside from the benefits to your health and savings, there are a lot of conveniences that vaping can offer over combustible cigarettes. In fact, advantages with this popular technology are bursting at the seams with so many ex-smokers trading in their smelly, tobacco packets for lightweight, pocketable gadgets that offer a more versatile selection of flavors amid a smoke-free setting. Read more to find out about other conveniences that can be achieved when you switch to a pro-vape lifestyle. 

Easily switch between flavors

Unlike conventional cigarettes, Logic electronic cigarettes allow the user to effortlessly switch up flavors throughout the day, which opens a window of opportunity to try both tobacco and menthol Logic e-cig refills. While there are ex-smokers who miss the smoky musk of combustible tobacco, others long for the minty punch of menthols. So, for users who possess an appreciation for an enticing mix of both flavors, you’re able to pop off and replace your cartomizer or capsule depending on your mood. Both devices from the Logic Pro Advanced Vapor System and the Logic Power Series have been developed with one-click vaping in mind, which means that these easy-to-use e-cigs possess a modern design allowing the user to seamlessly twist the battery off from the mouthpiece of the device and pop off the capsule or cartomizer to swap for another flavor. This on-the-go technology is perfect when you’re away from your at-home conveniences and their spill-proof e-liquid containers ensure the highest quality standards. So, your purses and pockets can carry Logic e-cig refills safely without leaking worries!

Eco-friendly devices

Each Logic device comes equipped with a simple, safe, and powerful battery that provides vapers with thicker, enriching clouds and a higher-quality vaping experience over other competing e-cig brands. The Logic Pro is equipped with a 650 MAH battery while the Logic power comes with a 320 MAH battery. As a leading, rechargeable technology, the batteries on Logic e-cigs can also be plugged into wall outlets or computer USB ports to charge-up and activate long-lasting power with a capacity to offer 300 to 400 delicious puffs per charge. What also makes Logic so eco-friendly is that all the electronic components can be disposed of at your municipal recycling center, leaving no butts between the sidewalk cracks of City streets. 

You can set up a delivery frequency and quantity schedule free of charge

Many ex-smokers are used to stocking up on cartons when they can knab a great deal, but wouldn’t it be more convenient to pre-order your e-cig products and have them safely delivered right to your door? After all, there is nothing worse than thinking you had another pack of Logic e-cig refills stashed away in your kitchen cupboard, only to find out that your secret stockpile was already used.

Last opportunity to buy flavored Logic Ecigs and EonSmoke JUUL Compatible PODS

Logic Pro and Eonsmoke Products

ATTENTION! The Food and Drug Administration is pulling a range of e-cigarette products from the market, including all fruit and mint-flavored disposable cartomizers and capsules. So, with the exception of menthol and tobacco, all other flavors will be banned as of February 6, 2020, which means that companies will no longer be allowed to manufacture, distribute or sell unauthorized e-cigs. That being said, if you’re one of the many vapers who rely on a particularly sweet piquancy to curb your hankering for a combustible cigarette, we recommend that you place a bulk order before these new restrictions start disrupting your harmonized vaping routine. 

Which products are leaving our shelves?

Unfortunately, both Logic and EonSmoke will be discontinuing many popular infusions from their product list, including Logic Power Series Platinum Label Cherry Starter Kit, Logic Power Series Platinum Label Cherry Cartomizer, Logic Pro Gold Label Strawberry Capsule, Logic Pro Gold Label Cherry Capsule, Logic Pro Gold Label Berry Mint Capsule as well as the entire selection of EonSmoke JUUL Compatible products. While this news is disheartening, the choice collection of EonSmoke Disposable Electronic Cigarettes and both the Logic Power Series and Logic Pro Advanced Vapor Systems, which feature tobacco and menthol items, will continue to be available for adults to use as a quit-smoking cessation aid. 

Get them before they’re gone! 

There are officially only 7 days left before you will no longer be able to purchase fruit and mint-flavored capsules and cartomizers, which means that this is your last opportunity to place an order to receive some of your favorite aromas. So, whether you want to gather a collection of EonSmoke JUUL Compatible PODS or enjoy the comfort and distinctive qualities that are offered by Logic’s Berry Mint, Cherry or Strawberry capsules, you’ll want to snag whatever is left on our shelves. 

Please note that since we’re in the process of liquidating the entire inventory of the above products, quantities may vary and some flavors may no longer be available since all stock is being sold on a first-come-first-served basis. Thank you for your understanding!

So, in case you need some convincing on why the best JUUL compatible pods are EonSmoke, here’s why you should be placing an order before the end of the month. 

The vibrancy of great flavors

There’s a reason that so many avid vapers are lobbying against the FDA’s flavor ban and it’s because these extracts are crucial in keeping them away from combustible cigarettes. After all, those looking to make a change and toss away their once loved smoking routine will need to curb their hankering for time-honored, combustible cigarette flavors like tobacco and menthol. That’s why we suggest that you stock up on the best JUUL compatible pods by grabbing all of your EonSmoke fruit and mint-flavored nicotine vaping products before sales halt on February 6, 2020.

So, build up your hoard of delicious flavors and stow them away for future vaping.  

EonSmoke pods are compatible with JUUL devices

JUUL Labs has ceased the production and distribution of their mango, creme, and cucumber pods and is now only selling menthol and tobacco flavors. So, if you’re the owner of a JUUL device, you should know that all EonSmoke JUUL compatible pods sold on iloveecigs.com are interchangeable and will fit into both your EonSmoke and JUUL devices. This means that while you can no longer purchase flavored JUUL-brand pods, you’re able to grab hold of an assortment of delicious extracts made by EonSmoke.

3 Tips to Help You Transition from Combustible Cigarettes to E-Cigarettes

Closeup of a man's hand breaking a cigarette in half

Tips to Help You Transition from Combustible Cigarettes to E-Cigarettes

The reasons to transition from combustible cigarettes to e-cigarettes are numerous. E-cigs are a safer alternative to smoking traditional cigarettes, 95 percent safer to be exact, according to the Royal College of Physician’s report titled Nicotine Without Smoke. Not only is vaping a safer and more superior nicotine delivery method, it also allows ex-smokers to maintain the social and ritualistic aspects of smoking, all with no ash, no tar, no smoke, no smell, and no stained teeth. Another research found out Teens who vape would be smoking combustible cigarettes if it weren’t for e-cigs, too. Regardless of your reason for switching to e-cigarettes, the three tips provided below will facilitate your transition.

Tip 1: Purchase the appropriate equipment

The number of options available to vapers can be overwhelming, and while impressive mods may be enticing, we recommend keeping it simple and starting out with one of our practical e-cigarettes, which are popular for their portability and ease of use.

An electronic cigarette works by vaporizing the e-liquid containing nicotine into an aerosol mist that the vaper inhales. It is sleek, inconspicuous, and excellent at mimicking the act of smoking a cigarette while providing you with a satisfying experience.

The disposable e-cigarettes that we carry come fully charged and ready to use. With up to 400 puffs, our e-cigarette delivers thick vapor and rich flavor and is equivalent to two packs of conventional cigarettes, such as tobacco and menthol. If you are looking for the same advantages as the disposable e-cigarette but also want the ability to recharge the battery, we recommend purchasing one of our Logic Power Series Starter Kits, which comes with the convenient and eco-friendly universal USB charger.

Tip 2: Choose the correct nicotine concentration

One of the advantages of vaping is that you can control the level of nicotine in your e-liquid or vape juice. We recommend choosing a higher level to start and maintaining that level in order to combat any nicotine withdrawals that a lower dose may produce.

To decipher the nicotine levels in e-liquids, look at the milligrams (mg/mL) of nicotine indicated on the packaging. For example, if you want to know what 20 mg/mL means, it means that there is 20mg of nicotine per millilitre of e-liquid. Alternatively, the nicotine concentrations can also be expressed as a percentage. For instance, instead of 20mg/mL, you may see 2.0%.

While choosing the right level is partly mathematical, determining the correct nicotine choice will also involve trial and error.

Tip 3: Don’t wait until you’re out of e-liquid or vape juice to reorder

Don’t wait until you’re completely out of e-liquid to order new product. A delay between when you run out and when the product is delivered to you has the potential to create a situation where you may be tempted to revert to the combustible cigarette.

With that fact in mind, we have made it easy for our clients to place recurring orders. Shoppers have the option to deliver new e-liquid every week, every two weeks, every three weeks, or every 4 weeks. What’s more? You can save 4 to 8 percent by choosing our convenient automatic reordering option.

Why California Should Reconsider Its Ban on Flavored E-Cigarettes

The California e-cigarette ban needs to be reconsidered

The California e-cigarette ban needs to be reconsidered

California, especially the Bay Area, has historically been at the forefront of promoting harm-reduction strategies among residents who use drugs. However, when it comes to smokers, instead of making it easier for them to switch to safer alternatives to smoking cigarettes, California is doing just the opposite with a newly imposed ban on flavored e-cigarettes. The ban is detrimental to public health interests, and it is imperative that cities in California reconsider the ban on flavored e-cigarettes.

As recently as June 20th, San Francisco city supervisors unanimously approved an ordinance to amend the health code prohibiting tobacco retailers from selling flavored tobacco products, and despite the fact that e-cigarettes contain no tobacco, flavored nicotine e-cigs are included in the ban. Unlike combustible cigarettes, which produce tar and smoke, e-cigarettes release a vapor containing the nicotine in the liquid, which makes it a much safer nicotine-delivery alternative to regular cigarettes. Unfortunately, that hasn’t prevented legislators from classifying them as tobacco products and banning the sale of flavored vaping liquids containing nicotine.

Banning flavored e-cigarettes also implies removing an incentive for smokers to switch to e-cigarettes, which have been found to be 95% less harmful than traditional cigarettes. Not only does the California e-cigarette ban on flavored products reduce the motivation to switch, but according to Gregory Conley, the President of America’s Vaping Association, it also blatantly disregards the evidence that flavors help smokers quit by disconnecting them from the taste of tobacco.

Another reason for the ban is the misconception that flavored vaping liquids could entice teens to smoke. This fear is unfounded as there is no evidence to suggest that there is any correlation between the two. According to Carrie Wade, the Harm Reduction Policy Director of nonprofit R Street Institute, “rates of teen smoking are at an all-time low and have steadily declined from 15.8 percent in 2011 to 9.3 percent in 2015.”It is also important to note that it is illegal to sell e-cigarettes and other vaping products to minors and that vape shops, which are often independently owned, have a lot to lose if they don’t comply.

Taking into consideration that e-cigarettes are a much safer nicotine-delivery alternative to smoking and that flavored vaping liquids provide an additional incentive to smokers to switch, the Golden State needs to reconsider the California e-cigarette ban on flavored liquids, especially when there is no evidence of a gateway effect on teens and other non-smokers. Instead, it should differentiate e-cigarettes from other tobacco products and promote them as a harm-reduction method to encourage smokers to make the switch and quit smoking cigarettes.

Big tobacco looking for new cigarette alternatives

Hand crushing cigarettes over white background

Hand crushing cigarettes over white background

Big tobacco companies are diversifying out of traditional cigarettes and into new alternatives in what critics are calling a ‘smokescreen’ to divert attention from the negative effects of tobacco.

Among the companies making the change is UK tobacco giant Imperial Brands, the company behind Winston, West and Gauloises, who are currently testing caffeine energy products.

Imperial’s Chief Development Officer, Matthew Phillips said: “We’ve been increasingly looking in other areas,” including focus on products that appeal to millennials.”

One of the industry’s largest players, British American Tobacco, have also invested $1 billion over the past five years in what it terms “next generation products”. They say e-cigarettes, including its brand Vype, are “potentially less risky alternatives” to tobacco.

“The key challenge for the tobacco industry is the terrible image of their products,” said Professor Steve Greenland, a marketing expert at Charles Darwin University who specializes in the tobacco industry.

“[Tobacco companies] may be distancing themselves from the traditional tobacco market, but the reality is not far off 99 per cent of their revenue comes from cigarettes and while we’re seeing this decline in smoking in Australia the company’s growth business is in emerging markets like Indonesia and East Timor.

“These new products are providing a bit of a smokescreen to what is going on with mainstream business.”

But critics say the most effective way to quit is to stub out the smokes, rather than moving to alternatives.

“By positioning themselves as ‘part of the solution’, rather than the essence of the problem, the tobacco industry is seeking to claw back from its pariah status and to re-engage in the policy process,” said Ross MacKenzie, a lecturer in Health Studies at Macquarie University.
