What is vaping?
Diving straight into the topic, let's ask, what is vaping? Essentially, vaping involves inhaling and exhaling vapour produced by a device known as a vape or e-cigarette. The vapour is produced by heating up e-liquid, otherwise known as vape juice.
This vape juice is usually flavoured and comes in many different nicotine strengths and bases. Each different type of base produces a slightly different vaping experience to the user.
Types of Vapes
We understand that the world of vaping can be a bit confusing, especially when there is a lot of jargon around. Below is an explanation of the different types of vape devices you could expect to see in the UK.
Disposable Vapes: a quick and easy way to vape. Simply open them up and start vaping.
Rechargeable Disposable Vapes (Pod Vapes): Known as rechargeable disposable vapes, they are a two-piece device made up of a rechargeable battery and a replaceable flavour pod.
Vape Pens:
The classic vape pen design with a refillable tank and changeable coil, placed on top of a rechargable battery.
Box Mods:
Then you have Box Mods, usually the largest and most powerful vapes. A Box Mod usually has features that allow you to customise wattage & temperature and are usually for experienced vapers.
Factors to consider when buying a vape
Price
One of the first considerations is the price. Your budget will determine which vape you can afford. However, remember that quality should not be compromised for the price.
Quality
Quality of the vape device is paramount. A high-quality vape offers a smoother, more enjoyable experience and is often more durable.
Battery Life
Battery life matters! Longer battery life means a continuous, uninterrupted vaping experience. Consider a battery life that matches your daily usage as you may not need the biggest battery available.
Ease of Use & Maintenance
Some vapes are more user-friendly than others. If you're a beginner make sure to pick a vape device that is easy to use and maintain. Some vapes can have many parts that need maintained.
