Interesting! This is the first time I have come across "e-cigarettes"

As a former (quit cold turkey June 23, 1980) world class smoker (4 packs a day, 100 cigars a month, 5 pounds of pipe tobacco a year, and 10 or 12 packs of chewing tobacco per year [for those "smoke free" environments]), I can't imagine a sillier method of poisoning one's body with nicotine. I certainly poisoned my body with nicotine, but can you imagine going up to someone and instead of bumming a light for your cigarette, saying, "Hey, buddy! Got a battery charge for my e-cigarette?":confused::eek:

Regulation Requirements for E-Cigarettes - FDA US - CE ISO EU

With the new FDA regulations to control tobacco products, does anyone know what the regulations (eg GMP, QS) one needs to comply with for the manufacturing of e-cigarettes are to satisfy US and EU?
