I've seen Big Clive's musings on extracting rechargeable cells from these things as well. I've always wanted to give it a try, but somehow the apparently conscientious oiks in my neck of the woods don't seem to litter disposable vapes everywhere so I've never been able to get my hands on any significant quantity of them.

It's astounding that these things are made to just be thrown away. What an absurd amount of waste.

I vape and I think these disposable vapes are an obscene waste that should not exist. Just get a decent mod, it's cheaper in the long run anyway

That's always been my take. I would also much rather be able to easily refill the thing with whatever I want -- and have control over what's going into it (insofar as anyone can, via buying through trusted sources).
