Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is vaping?
Vaping is the act of inhaling vapor produced by a device that heats up a liquid called e-liquid or vape juice. It’s a smoke-free alternative to traditional cigarettes and typically contains nicotine (optional), flavoring, and a base liquid like PG/VG.
2. Is vaping safer than smoking?
While not risk-free, vaping is generally considered less harmful than smoking because it doesn’t burn tobacco or produce smoke. Instead, it delivers vapor without tar or combustion-related toxins.
3. What are the different types of vape devices?
- Disposables: Pre-filled, single-use, ready to vape
- Pod Systems: Refillable or pre-filled cartridges, compact and easy
- Vape Pens: Rechargeable, refillable, and slightly more advanced
- Mods: Advanced devices with full customization (power, airflow, etc.)
4. I’m new. Which device should I start with?
We recommend starting with a disposable or a pod system. They’re simple, portable, and require little to no setup — perfect for beginners.
5. What’s the difference between Freebase and Nicotine Salt?
- Freebase Nicotine: Stronger throat hit, better in larger devices like pens or mods
- Nicotine Salt: Smoother at higher strengths, ideal for pods and disposables
6. How do I choose the right nicotine strength?
| Smoker Type | Freebase Nicotine | Nicotine Salt |
| Light Smoker | 3mg – 6mg | 10mg – 20mg |
| Moderate Smoker | 6mg – 12mg | 20mg – 30mg |
| Heavy Smoker | 12mg – 18mg | 30mg – 50mg |
| Non-Smoker | 0mg (nicotine-free) | 0mg or avoid nicotine |
7. Will vaping make me cough?
Some new users may cough at first. This is normal and usually goes away as your throat adjusts. Try taking slower, gentler puffs and start with a smoother option like Nicotine Salts.
8. How do I inhale properly?
Use Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) with smaller devices:
- Draw vapor into your mouth
- Pause, then inhale into lungs
- Exhale gently
Direct-to-Lung (DTL) is for bigger, advanced devices and larger vapor clouds.
9. Is nicotine necessary in e-liquid?
No. Many e-liquids are available in 0mg versions. You can enjoy vaping purely for flavor and experience, without any nicotine at all.
10. Is vaping safe around kids or pets?
No. Nicotine e-liquid can be toxic if ingested or spilled. Always keep your vape and e-liquids out of reach of children and animals. Use child-safe packaging and store properly.
11. Can I charge my vape with a phone charger?
Only if the manufacturer says it’s safe. It’s best to use the charger that came with your device to avoid overcharging or damaging the battery.
12. What if I get a burnt taste when vaping?
That’s likely a “dry hit.” Your pod or coil may be empty or not saturated. Refill or replace the coil/pod and let the liquid soak in for a few minutes before vaping again.
13. How long does a disposable vape last?
Depends on the model, but most range from 600 to 12,000 puffs. Once it’s empty or the battery dies, dispose of it properly.
14. Can I travel with my vape?
Yes — but check local regulations. Keep vape devices in your carry-on, not checked luggage. E-liquids must meet liquid limits and be stored safely.
15. Is vaping legal in my country?
Laws vary widely. Some countries allow vaping freely, while others restrict or ban nicotine e-liquids. Always check your local regulations before purchasing or traveling with vape products.
