History of Vaping

Contrary to what many of us believe, vaping ‘came into being’ as far back as over five decades ago (1960s to be exact). Back then it was not what it is today – but of course. Vaporizers at the time weren’t easy to carry around. They were more of a static, tabletop kind.

The big brain behind their invention was Hon Lik, a Chinese pharmacist who took inspiration from the death of his father.

Cause? Cancer from smoking.

He called this device a Ruyan, which loosely translated means ‘like smoke’.
The Ruyan proved to be a hit, and it slowly vaporized its way into the U.S. in the mid-2000s, and here, vaping was born.
