Editor’s note: This article was first published in June 2014. The 10,000 units a day, the six flavours, the e-cigarette shop boom and slowdown, and the talks with Tikun Olam are company statements and rumours from that time.
It was only a matter of time, and you could have guessed that it would be a Dutch company that invented the first electronic joint, building on the success of the electronic cigarette. Although many smokers had already found ways to use e-cigarettes to smoke marijuana, the Dutch company E-NJOINT BV has invented and developed a legal electronic joint that is already sold in shops that sell traditional cigarettes and in other retailers.
According to the company, it is currently producing around 10,000 units a day, so it is looking for international distributors to sell its range of products in your region or country. It could be a good business opportunity to exploit in the short term, before the same thing happens as with e-cigarette shops: they started opening en masse in cities, and openings have now levelled off, not to mention that many of them are closing down.
There is a disposable version of the electronic joint that contains no THC, tobacco or nicotine, so it is sold as a 100% harmless and legal product.
It works exactly like an e-cigarette, except that with each puff a marijuana leaf drawn on the tip lights up. There are six flavours available. With the other editions, users can refill the electronic joint with cannabis liquids and can also smoke dry herbs, so they can smoke something similar to a traditional joint.
E-NJOINT BV is rumoured to be in talks with a large medical cannabis company, Tikun Olam.
Anyone interested in the terms for distributing the company’s products just needs to visit the distributors section of the company’s website and get in touch through the email address listed there.
