One of the keys to successfully switching to vaping is choosing the correct nicotine strength.
In fact, it may be THE most important factor.
Unfortunately, there is a lot of incorrect information written about e-liquid nicotine strengths.
As a result, many smokers fail to switch to vaping.
Based on research, experience and an unusual French experiment, we put this guide together to.....
I’m quite proud that the teams in our vape stores are clued up on vaping myths. Thanks to their research, and regular updates from head office, they have the knowledge, information and confidence to deal with concerns generated by negative press.
When we visit other shops, though, that’s not always the case, and I’ve seen some vape sellers struggle to.....
Surface area arms race
In recent years we’ve seen a race amongst vape manufacturers to maximise the surface area of coils. It started with dual coils (which incorporated two wires), and that’s a process which continues today with coils incorporating multiple strands of wire in multiple coil holes.
One game changer was the original Aspire Cleito tank. Thinking outside the box,.....
Vape juice is one of a number of terms used for e-liquid. E-liquid has been the most commonly used terms in recent years, along with e-juice, but more and more people are now using the words vape juice.
We've put together a great vape juice infographic which will provide you with all the essential need to knows, and you’ll also.....
Millions of people now vape as an alternative to smoking. With Public Health England estimating that it’s at least 95% safer than smoking, it’s been a massive success.

I still remember the time a customer wound up one of our customer services team by requesting a dual-triple horizontal-vertical kryptonite coil.
Perhaps because of the amount of coils and tanks coming in at the time, she passed on the request to our product manager - to much merriment.
And if anything, there have been even more coils.....
After updating this vaping glossary several times over the years, it’s astonishing to see the growth in e-cig slang and vocabulary. In fact, when I first wrote this in the very early days of vaping, we had about 15 words (and I had to scrape around for some of those)!
As we predicted at the time things are very different.....

Vaping is alright, he thought, taking a puff from his eGo and exhaling periodic wisps of vapour.
The tobacco flavours sometimes had a musty, sweaty feet odour about them, but it wasn't too bad. And the hand-to-mouth aspect was comfortingly familiar.
But something was still missing.
There was an ‘itch’ he struggled to scratch through vaping. He’d puff and puff but it.....
E-cigarette technology has been advancing at an incredible pace over the last few years, and it shows no sign of slowing down.
Early devices were either mechanical or delivered a constant, regulated voltage to the atomiser.
Then came variable voltage mods, which let you fine-tune your vape exactly the way you wanted.
The next upgrade to that was variable power, which did.....
Are you thinking of becoming an e-liquid reviewer, or do you already review e-juices?
Strangely enough, while hundreds if not thousands of people are reviewing e-liquids on YouTube, Reddit, forums, blogs magazines and elsewhere, I've struggled to find one post giving advice on how to do it.
So I asked 10 e-liquid reviewers to provide tips for new reviewers. I've also added a couple.....
