I'm looking to get into a dry herb vape as a better alternative to prerolls. All I see online is people lavishing praise on them and real studies saying they have health benefits. Plus buying straight flower and grinding is cheaper.

Do you use one and if so do you have a reco? I've been leaning towards the g pen elite for a not astronomical price but decent looking portable build.

That standard covers batteries, not the devices that use them...

Also it doesn't even cover the 18650s themselves since they usually have <5g of lithium in them.

It's literally just a loophole for the manufacturers: if the users can't replace batteries, you don't need to do safety testing for that scenario

Ah. I forgot why I never comment around here. Thanks for reminding me.

I like what they are saying. It's cool to know shit. But the way they are saying it makes ya feel like you couldn't have an opinion.
