Discover the Elegance of Pen Style Vape Kits
Pen-style kits, or Pen Vape Kits, continue to be a timeless choice for both new and experienced vapers. Beloved for their portability, ergonomic design, and uncomplicated functionality, they offer a comfortable and satisfying vaping experience in an elegant form factor, perfect for those who value both style and substance in their vape device.
The Versatility of Pod Vape Kits
Pod vape kits, or just Pod Kits, have gained immense popularity in recent years for their unrivalled adaptability and straightforward design. Famous brands like Smok and Voopoo were early pioneers of pod systems with revolutionary new user-friendly features, such as push-n-pull coil replacements, adjustable airflow and fixed-coil and refillable pods enhancing the overall experience.
Whether you prefer the convenience of disposable pods or the flexibility of refillable pods, these kits cater to all preferences and offer a vastly more simplified experience over more advanced vape kits.
MTL vs DTL: Choosing Your Preferred Vaping Style
Understanding the difference between Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) and Direct-to-Lung (DTL) vaping is crucial. MTL kits, which best simulate the sensation of traditional smoking, are ideal for beginners. They operate at lower power outputs and are perfect for those seeking a familiar experience.
On the other hand, DTL kits are best suited for vapers who enjoy dense clouds and direct inhalation, offering a more powerful and immersive experience. They were traditionally marketed towards more experienced vapers and enthusiasts, but you can now find many devices that offer the same experience with far less management and fuss.
There’s also another style of vaping that has emerged in the last couple of years: RDTL, or Restricted Direct-to-Lung vaping. This style offers a middle ground between the other two: a tactile, satisfyingly deep draw that’s lighter and airier than a typical MTL vape.
Choosing the Right E-liquid for Your First Vape Kit
Selecting the appropriate e-liquid is as important as choosing your first kit. High-PG or ‘classic’ e-liquids are known for their intense flavour and satisfying throat hit, while Nicotine Salts offer a rapid nicotine delivery at higher strengths, closely mimicking the sensation and craving relief of smoking.
For those seeking a balance, 50/50 e-liquids combine the best of both worlds, delivering rich flavour and smooth vapour. For high-powered DTL devices, choose High-VG e-liquids. These are more viscous and better suited to producing large clouds of rich vapour with low-resistance coils.
