    Well, they do have batteries so, yeah. That’s the issue I have with them: they’re made of a finite, fairly precious and environmentally damaging material but the manufacturers specifically sell them as disposable. At least a McDonalds carton dumped on the roadside will dissolve to harmless mush in a few months, but disposable vapes won’t; they’re going to landfill, or down drains into rivers, or exploding in compactors and the manufacturers know it.
