Mini-Guide: how to choose the right PG/VG balance

图片
Choosing the right (or wrong) PG/VG ratio can make or break your vape. In our Beginner's Guide To PG And VG, we have briefly touched on picking the right PG/VG ratio — but not in as much detail as we will get into today. You can consider this mini-guide a more technical extension to our PG and VG Guide — the one that will help you find the perfect balance for the perfect vape. So, what PG/VG ratio should you use? This depends on several key factors. Namely, what kit you are using and what you want to get out of your vape. Let's start with the kit. While you may have a preference for a specific PG/VG ratio in your e-liquids, it all comes down to nothing if it's not a good match for your equipment. So what equipment can there be? One of the most popular tank types is a clearomizer. These come with high resistance coils and are usually used for vaping under 15 watts. Clearomizers are not a good match for high VG e-liquids: their coils are not well-suited for cop

Stealth Vaping Techniques With iQ AIR

There are two key things that make stealth vaping possible: the right vaping kit and the right stealth vaping technique. With the iQ AIR , we have the first one covered. So all you need to do now is find the right stealth vaping technique. Stealth vaping is no rocket science — but there are several things you will need to keep in mind. Here are some of the basic "rules" you will need to keep to: Hide your LEDs. Even a small and subtle kit like the iQ AIR still comes with a mini LED indicator in the lower part of the device that lights up every time you take a draw. Even something this small can easily give you away. Thus, the first thing to remember is that you need to cover your LEDs — you can simply do it with your hand as you vape or attach a piece of tape over the LED light. Don't huff and puff. If you want to vape stealthily, you can't take big hits. Even low cloud devices like the iQ AIR can produce quite a bit of vapor when you take a long draw. To

A Beginner’s Guide To PG And VG

图片
There are two terms in vaping that you will always encounter. These are PG and VG. To a new vaper, these may be confusing — so we've summed up pretty much everything you need to know about PG, VG and their differences in this handy guide. What Are PG and VG? PG stands for propylene glycol and VG is vegetable glycerine. Both are odorless liquids that makeup two of the key components of most vape juices. They are also used in lots of other consumable products like flavorings and additives. When heated, they produce vapor, which vapers inhale and result in specific mouth and throat sensations. Though in many ways similar, PG and VG have a different consistency and taste differently as well. While you will find both 100% PG and 100% VG e-liquids, most vape juices use a combination of both ingredients in different ratios. Choosing the right PG/VG ratio is essential for getting the right experience out of your vaping session. Now, let's take a look at PG and VG individu

What is the iQ ONE hiding: three features that make it a great vape kit

图片
There are quite a few things that make the iQ ONE one of our bestselling vape kits. It's compact, it's stylish and it's truly powerful for its size. But the rare a few features that make it especially irresistible.  First, it's the variety the device offers. The iQ ONE comes with two interchangeable coils — and this means you can use it for both vaping free-base and nic salt e-liquids: free-base calls for the use of the 0.6 ohm coil and for nic salts you will need to use the 0.8 coil. This ensures that you get the right flavor from your vape juices and that you have your choice of e-juices as well: with the iQ ONE, you are basically getting two devices in one. Second, the iQ ONE is a pod system — the kit comes with 2ml vape juice cartridges that easily snap in place at the top of the device. The best part? The cartridges are refillable. And this means you not only get the convenience of a pod system but also savings options: you can refill the pods with e-liquid

Why are pod systems so popular?

One of the best things about vaping is the versatility it offers: you have your choice of flavors, can vape with nicotine or without and choose between a variety of kits. Today, we are looking into the pros of pod mods. Pod mods (in their current shape and form) appeared on the market quite recently: the first pod mod was released by Pax Labs back in 2010 and had quite a few design flaws. But pod systems have since come a long way and have quickly gained popularity — especially among new vapers. So why do we like pod mods? They have quite a few things going for them: First and foremost, it's their simplicity. Pod systems are really easy to use — and this is something new vapers truly appreciate. With pod systems, you don't need to tweak with settings, assemble and re-assemble your device, change coils and wicks. There is no learning curve as well — you simply take your pod mod and inhale. This is what makes pod systems so attractive to new vapers. Second, it's the f

The Essential Coil Terms Glossary

A coil is an essential element of any vape kit: from complex and powerful box mods to compact pod mods. If you've just started vaping, you probably don't yet need to know all the intricacies of coil building and wicking. However, as your interest in vaping progress and you read articles or maybe even attend a few vape forums, you will start coming across some lingo. In this mini-guide, we have gathered some essential abbreviations and terms related to vaping coils. The list below is by no means extensive and is only meant to give you a general idea about some most frequently used coil related worlds. Coil abbreviations BCC — bottom coil clearomizer. A vape kit with the heating element situated at the bottom of the vape tank. BDC — bottom dual coil. A bottom coil device is a kit that contains a tank, a drip tip, a base, and an atomizer coil. The atomizer heads, in this case, are still one piece but they contain two coils. BVC — bottom vertical coil. A device wit

iQ VIVA: What are the pros of a glass tank?

图片
One of the qualities that make the iQ VIVA one of our bestselling mods is its glass tank. Lots of vapers prefer glass to both plastic and pyrex — and even willing to pay a little bit extra for devices that feature a glass tank. Glass is considered a premium material when it comes to vaping devices — and a glass tank will often be the most expensive part of your whole atomizer. So, sporting a glass tank on your vape kit is not cheap. But what do you get for the price? A glass vape tank looks really cool and gives the device a heavier and quality feel. But is it just about the aesthetics or are there functional advantages as well? There are quite a few. First, you will be able to clearly see how much juice is left in the tank. And in order to do that, you won’t need to take the device apart, which makes things quite convenient. Second, a glass vape tank is compatible with all types of vape juices. And you definitely don’t want your e-liquid to get into a chemical reactio

Vape kit protection features explained

You probably already have your own well-thought-through checklist of what you look for when buying a new vape kit.  Some vapers are looking for power, clouds and customization options and opt for a variable wattage/voltage device. Others prefer simplicity or are looking for a super-compact kit that would be ideal for stealth vaping. But there is one factor that most vapers would agree on — a vape kit needs to be safe.  Most vape mods come with a standard set of must-have safer features like short-circuit protection, overtime protection, and others. But what do these features protect your kit from and why are they necessary?  What is short-circuit protection? Short circuit protection protects your device from excessive currents that go beyond the acceptable current rating of your equipment. As soon as an overcurrent is detected on your device, it will trip and break the circuit. What is reverse battery protection? Reverse battery protection is a safety featu
