So you’re looking for a vape device, but not for a huge device designed to block out the sun with massive clouds of vapour?A vape pen might well be your best choice! Small, lightweight and discreet, these devices are often easy to use and make a great choice for the office.In this post we’ll cover the best vape pens currently.....
This website wouldn’t exist if my mum hadn’t been a heavy smoker.It was she who came across a basic cigalike device in 2008. Fortunately, for her it worked, and she hasn’t had a single (tobacco!) cigarette since.That simple device has helped tens of thousands of smokers switch from tobacco to vaping.It didn’t work for everyone. But since then both vape.....
What are pod mods?First, there were mods. Then there were pods.Now… there are pod mods!While vape mods are usually larger, more powerful and more advanced, pod devices are almost the opposite - more compact, easy to use and (usually) lower powered.Pod mods meet somewhere between the two.They are larger, more powerful and sometimes more advanced than a pod.....
It’s embarrassing to note after 13 years of vaping, but, due to a basic user error, my first experience of this new Geekvape vape kit was a mouthful of e-liquid.The Geekvape Aegis Solo/S100 kit is designed for high VG e-liquid. I often say that when it comes to cloud-chasing tanks, but in reality you can often use high powered.....
Voopoo has made great strides in recent years, releasing a string of high-quality vape devices. In particular, the Voopoo Drag series has become one of the most popular device series in the UK in recent months, and has dominated the pod mod category.There’s a lot of options to the series, but in this post I’m going to be looking.....
Arguably, the most important part of an e-cigarette is the vape tank (or pod).Sure, you can find a lot of modes in an advanced device. But their essential function is to provide power to your tank. It’s the tank that converts that power into vapour, flavour and nicotine.There’s a lot that goes into providing a great tank and it’s different.....
Most vape devices go through a cycle. They launch with a bang and, if they’re good, they develop a reputation and become popular. Then, after a year or so, they are replaced by another model, and sales slowly decline.Just a handful of devices and tanks break through this cycle. When they do, though, they can last for years. Examples include.....
In the early days of vaping, there was a simple choice – a basic cigalike device or a massive mod device designed to block out the sun with its huge clouds.Nowadays there are a huge variety of vape mods, and they all cater to different needs. There are mods that are super easy to use, mods for Mouth-to-Lung vapers,.....
Back in 2015 I tried out - and reviewed- a new device called the Innokin Coolfire IV.A sturdy device with a brushed steel finish, it proved to be super reliable - and to be one of the few vape devices that really withstood the test of time.I actually last bought a Coolfire IV a few weeks ago, when.....
Updated: January 2023Over the last decade (and more) Will, our product manager, and I have tried many hundreds of different vape devices.There’s rarely a perfect device, although we do highlight our favourites on this blog.This process has given us an insight into what makes a great device.We’ve put this post together because, if you’re looking for a vape device, it.....
The Eleaf iStick Power 2 kit recently landed on my desk. I was quite keen to try it, as I have fond memories of the original iStick. In fact, the battery on the first version was so good I know people who still use it now half a decade after buying it.It’s the second device I’ve had recently for.....
When I first started vaping I didn’t even think about clouds.What was important was the draw, the nicotine, the hit on the back of the throat.But like many vapers, what I wanted from vaping started to evolve. As I started using more powerful devices and different e-liquids, I started to notice larger clouds forming.I enjoyed seeing clouds of vapour.....

It can be hard to predict trends in vaping.In fact, at our office (pre-covid!) we used to say that all we can predict is that, at some point, something we can’t foresee will completely turn vaping on its head. That, at least, has turned out to be true several times.Still, by monitoring current trends, talking to manufacturers and referencing our.....
