QMA expresses many of the reasons why we’ve been on the fence with disposables. Frankly, I would and actively do encourage every customer to swap to cartridges.
It’s not a money concern for us. It’s a economic concern and as QMA mentions, a symptom of the evils of the consumerism mentality.
We’re in the middle of a global pandemic, and global warming has set fire to huge lower chunks of the provinces of Canada, and indeed many places in the USA as well.
Disposing of a battery for every cartridge is absolutely not something we can condone in an effort to reduce carbon footprinting.
As i’ve mentioned, we are currently developing alternatives to the disposable market that do not have this same degree of toxic waste.
If I sell a million disposables, that means I’m responsible for a million batteries in landfills within half a year. This is not something I’m even remotely OK with as a business owner. What we are offering is an interim solution that will likely be taken down from our product offering within the next half a year.
