Booker Recalls Elux Disposable Vapes Due to Quality Issues
Booker recalls Elux disposable e-cigarettes due to quality issues and nicotine levels exceeding 20mg.

British wholesale retailer Booker has recalled six types of disposable electronic cigarettes under the brand name Elux due to manufacturing quality issues. This was reported by Better Retailing on April 12th.


The recalled flavors include Mr Blaze, Tiger Blood, Sweet Blueberry Ice, Pink Lemonade, Blueberry Raspberry, and Watermelon Ice, all of which have a nicotine content of 20mg.


The affected batch codes are listed as KB151208, KB151104, KB150831, and KB151229.
