Which One Suits You"},"content":{"rendered":"

The question we get most on WhatsApp: “I want to start vaping \u2014 should I get a disposable or a pod system?” The answer comes down to a few clear things: how much you vape a day, what you are willing to spend a month, and how much you want to deal with the device itself. Here is the breakdown.<\/p>\n

The difference in two lines<\/h2>\n

A disposable vape<\/strong> arrives pre-filled and pre-charged. You open it, vape until it runs out, and then replace it. There is no coil to change, no e-liquid to refill, nothing to take apart.<\/p>\n

A pod system<\/strong> is a device you keep. You charge it by cable, refill its pod with salt nicotine e-liquid, and swap the coil every so often. The upfront cost is higher, but everything after that is far cheaper.<\/p>\n

When a disposable makes sense<\/h2>\n

If it is your first time<\/h3>\n

Nothing is simpler. You buy one, try the flavour and the feel, and find out whether vaping suits you at all before spending on a device. It is also the easiest way to test which strength works for you.<\/p>\n

If you vape occasionally<\/h3>\n

Someone who only vapes at gatherings or on weekends has little reason to buy a device and deal with charging, refilling and coils. A disposable is a far better fit.<\/p>\n

When travelling<\/h3>\n

No cable, no e-liquid leaking in your bag, no coil to burn out. Take one or two and you are set.<\/p>\n

We stock 70 disposable vapes<\/a> across different puff counts and flavours. If you want to read further on the category, there is a detailed guide to disposable vapes<\/a> covering the technical differences between them.<\/p>\n

When a pod system makes sense<\/h2>\n

If you vape daily<\/h3>\n

Here the maths changes completely. The device costs you once, and after that you only pay for e-liquid and coils \u2014 and the gap in monthly spend is very noticeable against buying a disposable every few days.<\/p>\n

If you want control over flavour<\/h3>\n

With a pod system you choose from 228 salt nicotine e-liquids<\/a> \u2014 fruit, ice, mint, dessert, tobacco. And you can switch every time a bottle runs out instead of being locked into a single flavour.<\/p>\n

If you are coming off cigarettes<\/h3>\n

Pod systems are built for an MTL draw \u2014 the vapour goes from mouth to lung, exactly how a cigarette works. That feel is far closer to what you know than a sub-ohm device pushing dense clouds.<\/p>\n

The difference between the two draw styles is worth understanding properly \u2014 there is a thorough explanation of how a cigarette-style draw differs from direct-lung vaping<\/a> that covers this point.<\/p>\n
