Nicotine Salts

Nicotine Salt E Liquids FAQ's

• What are Nicotine Salt E Liquids?

  If you're looking for a smoother, more satisfying nicotine hit, our nic-salt vape juices are perfect for both beginners and experienced vapers.
  
  Nic salts are created by combining freebase nicotine with an acid, typically benzoic acid. Freebase nicotine is naturally alkaline, with a pH around 9. This alkalinity can contribute to a harsher throat hit and a more pronounced flavour. By adding an acid, the pH level is brought closer to neutral, this results in a faster and smoother nicotine delivery, making them ideal for those who desire a quick and efficient vaping experience.
  
  Nicotine salt is also the natural form of nicotine found in tobacco plants, and its unique composition influences how it is absorbed by the body. One of the key advantages of nic salts is their molecular stability. Unlike freebase nicotine, which can degrade and oxidise over time, nic salts remain stable longer and allow your body to process nicotine more quickly. 

• Are Nic Salts Suitable for Beginners?

  Nic salts are especially suitable for beginners transitioning from smoking. They mimic the throat hit of traditional cigarettes, making the transition to vaping less jarring. The familiar sensation helps ease new users into the vaping world more comfortably.

• How Do Nic Salt E Liquids Differ from Regular E Liquids?

  The primary difference lies in the chemical composition. Nic-salts e liquids contain nicotine in its naturally occurring state, leading to a smoother inhale, even at higher nicotine levels. Regular E Liquids, on the other hand, use freebase nicotine, which can be harsher, especially at elevated strengths.

• What are the Benefits of Using Nicotine Salts?

  Nicotine salts offer several advantages, including:
  
  Faster Absorption: The nicotine enters the bloodstream more quickly, providing immediate satisfaction.
  Smooth Throat Hit: Enjoy higher nicotine levels without the harshness associated with regular E Liquids.
  Cost-Effective: Higher nicotine concentration means you may use less juice to achieve the desired effect, potentially saving money over time.

• How Are Nic Salts Different from Freebase Nicotine?

  Absorption Rate: Nic salts are absorbed into the bloodstream remarkably quickly, often within just 6 seconds. They mimic the rapid nicotine rush of traditional cigarettes, offering almost instant relief from cravings with fewer puffs. In contrast, freebase nicotine takes longer to reach its peak and depart from the system, requiring more time to alleviate cravings. This quick action makes nic salts particularly appealing to ex-smokers seeking a familiar experience.
  
  Flavour and Throat Hit: Freebase nicotine at higher strengths can leave a peppery taste, affecting both the flavour and the throat hit of your e-liquid. Nic salts, with their balanced pH, deliver a much smoother throat hit, even at higher nicotine levels, without altering the flavour of your vape juice. For instance, a 3mg freebase nicotine e-liquid can have the same throat hit as a 20mg nic salt solution, but with less harshness.
  
  Suitable Devices and Usage: Nic salts vaporise at lower temperatures, making them ideal for low-powered mouth-to-lung devices. Typically, they are used in E Liquids with a 50:50 PG to VG ratio. The addition of benzoic acid ensures that nic salts evaporate more effectively, providing a strong hit without compromising on flavour or comfort during inhalation. This allows you to enjoy your preferred e-liquid flavours without the harshness associated with high-strength freebase nicotine.

• Are Nic Salt E Liquids Suitable for All Vape Devices?

  Nic salts are best suited for low-wattage, refillable devices like pod vape kits. These devices accommodate the smooth and potent delivery of nic-salts. High-wattage and advanced mod devices are not recommended, as they may produce too strong of a hit.

• What Nicotine Strengths are Available in Nic Salts?

  Nic salts typically range from 3mg to 20mg in nicotine strength. This variety caters to both those looking for a lighter hit and those accustomed to higher nicotine intake, offering flexibility to match your personal preferences.

• How Do I Choose the Right Nicotine Strength?

  Your choice should reflect your current nicotine consumption. If you’re moving from a heavy smoking habit, a higher strength might suit you. If you prefer a milder experience or are reducing nicotine intake, choose a lower strength.

• Are Nic Salts More Addictive than Regular E Liquids?

  While not necessarily more addictive, nic-salts' efficient delivery can lead to faster nicotine satisfaction. The key is moderation and choosing a strength that aligns with your habits.

• Do Nic Salts Provide a Smoother Vaping Experience?

  Yes, the main appeal of nicotine salt E Liquids is their smoothness. Even at higher nicotine levels, they offer a pleasant throat hit, making them appealing to those who find regular E Liquids harsh.
