Money, not health considerations, is behind ban on vaping 

If and when the Thai Tobacco Monopoly get their act together and start producing the paraphernalia it’ll doubtless become the best thing since sliced bread.

Yes, it should be legal.
It is an alternative to smoking, and there is absolutely no good reason to ban anything which might lessen the evil effects of smoking tobacco.
Further, this is one of those truly idiotic laws that Thailand produces. There is little public knowledge (especially for visitors), HUGE fines and/or penalties, and waaaaaaay too much leeway given to law-enforcement officers to deal with the issue. Essentially, any time a person gets caught vaping, the police will say something along the lines of “it is a 100,000 baht fine, but give me 2,000 and I will let you go”.
The only reason that I can see for making vaping illegal is to benefit the tobacco monopoly.
And that is a terrible, terrible reason.

 There are lots of inaccuracies and misconceptions about e-cigarettes and vaping. This UK government blog looks at the most common myths and provides the facts. This represents the latest comprehensive independent e-cigarette review, is authored by leading academics in the tobacco control field and is based on up-to-date international data and peer-reviewed research. Their view is supported by a number of key bodies, including Cancer Research UK, Action on Smoking and Health, the Royal College of Physicians, the British Medical Association and recently, a major US science body, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
The evidence is 100-per-cent clear – vaping saves lives.
