The Problem
Two Billion Batteries

Trashed EVERY YEAR by the vape industry.
Used once. Buried forever.

This is unacceptable — but it is fixable.

AROUND THE EARTH
2 billion batteries per year are trashed by the vape industry — that's enough to wrap around the world four times

IN OUT

Nine platforms in development. This is just the tease.

For Manufacturers & Brands

Good for the planet. Better for the bottom line.

Lower unit cost

No battery. No charging circuit. Cheaper to build.

Higher margin

Lower impact, lower cost, higher profit. No trade-offs.

§
Regulation, removed

Disposable bans are spreading. Rechargeables can sell where others can't.
