A hundred or so years ago the Supermatic cigarette injector was invented. It was a big advance over hand rolling of cigarettes. I suspect you’ve all seen these contraptions and its brother The Topomatic. They were primitive attempt s to help people who wanted to make their own cigarettes.

Then about 18 years ago, someone in Canada made a machine so that smokers could go into a store, use this automatic cigarette machine, and save a lot of money on cigarettes. Cigarette manufacturers and the Convenience Store Association complained that the machines were so popular they must be outlawed. They successfully lobbied Congress to outlaw the machines in the Highway Bill of 2012.

In about 2004, Fan Bao emigrated from China and invented his line of manual Powermatic injectors. The Powermatic Mini, the One, and the One Fifty. They are wonderful small cigarette injectors. In about 2008 he invented the Powermatic Two which is a great small cigarette injector.

In 2006 we successfully invented, manufactured, and sold the Revolution make your own cigarette injector. This personal machine made it easy for people who wanted to make their own cigarettes to make perfect cigarettes. With the machine they can make a pack in about two minutes. The machine puts the same amount of tobacco into each tube. This is the Cadillac of cigarette make your own machines. It is manufactured by us, and we’ve sold it as the Fresh Choice Cigarette machine and the Just Good Tobacco Machine. Today we market it by its original name “The Revolution.”
