Innovative 'Penjamin Cart Pens' Dual-Use E-Cigarette Pens Found in Schools
A new e-cigarette pen called "Penjamin Cart Pens" has been found on school campuses in Santa Clarita Valley.

According to reports from the American media outlet Hometown Station, a type of e-cigarette pen known as "Penjamin Cart Pens" is not only functional as a regular pen but also can be used to smoke e-cigarettes. Robert Jensen, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Police Department, confirmed that at least two of these e-cigarette pens were found on a campus in the Santa Clarita Valley last week.


Officials of the William S. Hart Union High School District stated:


The Hartford district reminds students that all forms of e-cigarettes and controlled substances are prohibited on all campuses in the Hartford district. E-cigarette pens or any other paraphernalia will be confiscated and disciplinary action will be taken as necessary.


Both the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station and the Hart District did not disclose the specific campus where these e-cigarette pens were found.

Australia’s One Nation Proposes 75% Tobacco Tax Cut, Says Lower Prices Could Hit Illicit Market
Australia’s One Nation Proposes 75% Tobacco Tax Cut, Says Lower Prices Could Hit Illicit Market
Australia’s One Nation party has proposed cutting tobacco excise by 75%, arguing that lower legal cigarette prices could narrow the gap with illicit tobacco and reduce demand for black-market products. The proposal comes as Australia continues expanding enforcement against illicit tobacco supply chains through border controls, retail inspections and organised-crime investigations. Supporters argue high taxes have contributed to illicit-market growth, while opponents warn that lower tobacco prices could undermine public-health goals. The proposal is a party policy position and has not been adopted by the Australian government.

South Korea Vape Strategies Diverge as BAT Reconsiders Exit and PMI Takes VEEV to About 14,000 Stores
BAT Rothmans says it previously considered exiting South Korea's vaping market because of competitive pressure from unregulated products, but is now reassessing conditions following changes to the country's nicotine regulatory framework. Vuse and other BAT vaping products remain available through existing distribution channels. The statement followed a South Korean media report that interpreted BAT's broader withdrawal from selected Vapour markets as a full exit from South Korea. Meanwhile, Philip Morris International launched VEEV inPRIME in the country in June and began expanding distribution to around 14,000 convenience stores and other retail channels in July. The contrasting moves highlight differing investment strategies as South Korea's regulated vaping market evolves.

U.S. House Defense Bill Includes Pilot Review of Vapes, Nicotine Pouches and Heated Tobacco for Military Smokers
On July 23, 2026, the U.S. House of Representatives passed its version of the Fiscal Year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which includes Section 707 provisions requiring the Department of Defense to evaluate tobacco use and nicotine alternatives among military personnel. The pilot program would examine products including vapes, nicotine pouches and heated tobacco products, primarily among active-duty service members who continue using combustible tobacco. The provision is a policy evaluation effort, not an authorization for military vaping promotion or a ban on vape products.
