My apologies that the two links I have posted happen to be on the same subject but this strikes me as being utterly ridiculous. E-cigarettes getting banned because their an overheating risk- probably due to incorrectly used or inappropriate chargers- while real cigarettes are still allowed because of course an open flame is perfectly alright near a platform that can go boom. Might be missing the big picture but I think this is a step in the wrong direction because it sets a very wrong image.
This doesn't seem all that ridiculous to me. They clearly site that it was the "charging" of the e-cig and not the smoking of it that was hazardous. There's a big difference there.
yes, but thats the point. E cigs only turn into miniature grenades when they're charged with the wrong chargers... it has set a bad example. Well I think it has.
