In addition, both the ISMOD Mini and ISMOD Jet are marked as "best used with BUDDZ tobacco sticks." The BUDDZ official website also features a heated tobacco device, the BUDDZ DEVICE, which closely resembles the ISMOD Mini in terms of design and specifications.

As early as the tobacco exhibition held in Dortmund this September, 2Firsts had already noticed the ISMOD brand and its products. The ISMOD II PLUS, in particular, became the brand's main highlight at the exhibition, featuring a battery device combined with two tobacco stick heating devices.

It is worth noting that the ISMOD Mini and ISMOD Jet were previously only available on the official ISMOD websites for regions such as Europe, the UK, and Jordan. Their launch on the US e-cigarette distributor site Vapesourcing makes them the only two HTP products currently listed on the site.

GAO Audit Finds Nearly 132,000 FDA Tobacco Applications Waiting an Average 1,266 Days as Nicotine Pouch Pilot Practices Move Into Vape PMTA Reviews
GAO Audit Finds Nearly 132,000 FDA Tobacco Applications Waiting an Average 1,266 Days as Nicotine Pouch Pilot Practices Move Into Vape PMTA Reviews
A U.S. Government Accountability Office audit found that 131,915 tobacco product applications submitted to the FDA since 2018 remained without a final review as of December 31, 2025, with pending applications waiting an average of 1,266 days. GAO also found FDA lacks the data needed to systematically determine whether scientific reviews meet applicable timelines. HHS agreed to upgrade the agency's tracking systems. At the same time, FDA has begun applying lessons from its nicotine pouch PMTA pilot to e-cigarette reviews, while changes to enforcement policy and electronic submissions are making the specific stage of a PMTA increasingly relevant to market access.
