CHARN PREMYODHIN, CEO OF VAPEREV, EXPLAINS THE GLOBAL VAPE PHENOMENON, WHY THOUSANDS HAVE MADE THE SWITCH FROM SMOKING TO VAPING – AND WHY THE AGE DEMOGRAPHICS ARE RAPIDLY EXPANDING

The SoCal-Based One-Stop Vape Shop and Distribution Company is Changing the Lives For Thousands of Ex-Smokers Worldwide

LOS ANGELES – Like the thousands of customers who flock to VapeRev (www.vaperev.com), the Southern California based one-stop vape shop he launched with his wife Amber Lee in 2012, Charn Premyodhin had tried unsuccessfully for years to quit smoking.

“It wasn’t until a friend introduced me to his first generation eGo battery that I actually saw the potential to quit as a result of using e-cigarettes,” says Charn, a veteran chef who was running CJ’s Paella, a successful catering company specializing in Spanish cuisine, at the time. “My first experience was mind blowing, and because it was so easy to enjoy, I knew I could quit! I had a lot of friends and family who smoked too, so I started showing them what I was using and one by one, those smokers became vapers. Deciding to start a business was a no brainer at that point. I wanted to help change the world, and I’m grateful that VapeRev has allowed me to do that since 2012.”

Started in the small garage of their Cerritos home before moving into its current and thriving retail location, VapeRev has become a world-class one-stop vape shop and distribution company that is revolutionizing the worldwide vape community. In just two years time, VapeRev has grown to a current team of associates that includes nearly 70 employees.

VapeRev’s initial store location is as much a relaxing and comfortable social environment to “hang” and enjoy both old and new friends alike, as a destination for vapers of all ages (literally, from 18-90!) to learn about, sample, and purchase the very best e-juice flavors and “mods”, the beautifully crafted vape devices whose stainless steel and brass exterior house battery used to power an atomizer heating element which produces the water vapor to be inhaled through a “drip tip” mouthpiece.

The reason for the growth of the industry is obvious. With vaping, there’s no flame, no burning, and therefore zero combustion takes place. This practice provides one component of smoking, nicotine, without having to combust 600 ingredients into over 4,000 chemicals, with over 50 of them known to be cancer causing. In addition, there’s no bad taste, no awful smell, no yellow teeth, no ash, and no cigarette butt litter. As a more positive oral fixation, it’s more socially acceptable these days than regular cigarettes – not to mention the “cool factor.”

Though users are focused more on the taste of everything from straightforward fruit flavors like watermelon and strawberry to slightly sweetened tobacco flavors and more exotic blends, the flavor itself constitutes anywhere from 3 percent – 25 percent of the mix. The base ingredients are  Vegetable Glycerin (VG) and Propylene Glycol (PG).  Many juices use 50 percent PG and 50 percent VG, but some are known to have higher amounts of VG according to the preference of the creator.

E-juice also contains various “strength” levels of nicotine, generally ranging from zero milligrams (for those who want to avoid it altogether) to 24mg, in increments of 3mg or 6mg.  Most commonly you’ll find 0mg, 6mg, 12mg, 18mg and 24mg available to the public. If someone is trying to keep from smoking, it’s suggested that they begin with a level that can properly replace the cigarette and nicotine consumption they are currently used to, then work their way down. E-juice strengths such as 3mg and 9mg have also become more popular due to the number of vapers using this technique.

Explaining the origins of VapeRev, Charn says, “Since opening as a retail store in 2012, we’ve had the pleasure of introducing the vape community to a new level of elegance and sophistication by offering consumers a large variety of quality products in an atmosphere unlike any other. Shortly after the shop opened, we began developing our website and our web-store. Our website features informative educational videos, interviews with several of the manufacturers we represent, and hardware breakdowns describing the features and specifications each of our products have. The success of our retail guests and our online visitors is very important to us, so we strive to provide all the information they need to have a stress-free transition from smoking to vaping!”

Charn, who smoked cigarettes for 20 years before vaping changed his life, says, “I get more satisfaction out of vaping, and there is also the relaxation factor. Plus it tastes so much better and I don’t smell like tobacco. My wife likes that!”
