NEW TO VAPING: YOUR COMPLETE GUIDE
If you're a smoker looking to make a switch or just curious about vaping, this comprehensive guide will provide you with all the information you need to understand the concept of vaping and find the right device and e-liquid combination for your needs.
VAPING - HOW IT WORKS
Vaping replicates the experience of smoking by creating vapor through a heated element called a coil. The coil, powered by the device battery, heats the e-liquid, transforming it into inhalable vapor.
VAPING DEVICES - AN OVERVIEW
-
CIGALIKE: Designed to imitate a cigarette, cigalikes were the first vape kits available. Although they are now considered outdated, they are easy to use and less intimidating for beginners. However, their limited battery life and refill options make them less recommended.
-
PODS: Pod kits gained popularity with the introduction of the Juul. They offer convenience and simplicity, with refillable pods and replaceable coils. Pods are beginner-friendly but typically cater more to mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping.
-
VAPE PENS: Vape pens feature a three-piece design with a battery, tank, and atomizer. They offer a good balance between portability, power, and expandability. Vape pens are suitable for MTL vaping and provide longer battery life compared to pods.
-
VAPE BOX: Box mods are larger, more advanced devices that allow for extensive customization. They offer higher power levels, making them suitable for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping. Box mods provide a complete vaping experience but are less portable and more expensive.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT E-LIQUID
E-liquids, or e-juices, consist of propylene glycol (PG), vegetable glycerin (VG), flavorings, and optional nicotine. The VG/PG ratio determines the consistency and performance of the e-liquid.
-
VG/PG RATIO: The ratio, such as 50% VG / 50% PG or 70% VG / 30% PG, affects the vaping experience. A 50/50 ratio is suitable for beginners, offering a balance between throat hit and cloud production. Higher VG ratios provide thicker clouds but require more power.
-
NICOTINE SALTS: Nicotine salts offer a more intense nicotine hit and faster absorption into the body. They are recommended for smokers who require a stronger nicotine satisfaction.
ADVANTAGES OF VAPING
Vaping offers numerous advantages over traditional smoking:
-
Healthier Alternative: Vaping eliminates the harmful substances found in tobacco, making it a safer option. Public Health England states that e-cigarettes are 95% less harmful than smoking.
-
Cost-Efficient: Vaping is more affordable than smoking cigarettes, allowing you to save up to 55% on costs.
-
Harmless to Others and the Environment: Vaping produces vapor instead of smoke, reducing the impact on those around you and the environment.
IS VAPING SAFE?
Despite recent media scaremongering, vaping has been proven to be a safer alternative to smoking. Public Health England endorses vaping as a means to quit smoking, as it significantly reduces exposure to harmful chemicals. It's the most effective, cost-efficient, and safe option available to smokers looking to quit.
