What Is Mouth To Lung Vaping?
Mouth to lung vaping is a vaping style where you first draw vapour into your mouth and then inhale it into your lungs. It is often shortened to MTL. For many people, this feels natural because it closely mirrors the way most smokers use a cigarette. Instead of pulling a large amount of vapour straight into the lungs in one go, the inhale is smaller, slower and more controlled. This article is for new vapers, smokers who are considering switching and curious consumers who keep seeing the phrase mouth to... Read more...
How To Prime A Vape Coil
If you use a refillable vape or pod kit, learning how to prime a vape coil properly is one of the most useful things you can do. A coil that is not prepared correctly can burn too quickly, taste harsh and produce a disappointing first few puffs. For new vapers, smokers switching to reusable kits, or anyone who is tired of ruining coils too early, this is a simple skill that makes a real difference. Reusable and refillable vapes remain legal in the UK, while single use vapes are now... Read more...
What Is Sub Ohm Vaping?
Sub ohm vaping is a style of vaping that uses a low resistance coil and a higher powered device to produce more vapour than a standard starter kit. This article is for adult smokers looking at different vape styles, newer vapers who keep seeing the term and want it explained properly and regular users who want a clearer picture of how sub ohm devices differ from simple pod kits. I have to be honest, the phrase can sound more technical than it really is. In practical terms, it usually means... Read more...
Why Does My Vape Taste Burnt?
A burnt taste is one of the most common vaping problems and it can catch out both beginners and experienced users. This article is for adult vapers who want to understand why it happens, how to fix it and how to stop it happening again. In simple terms, a burnt vape usually means the coil wick is not properly saturated with e liquid, or the coil has already been damaged by heat. NHS stop smoking guidance and specialist vaping advice both describe this as a dry hit, where too little... Read more...
Why Is My Vape Spitting?
If your vape is spitting, it usually means small droplets of hot e liquid are reaching your mouth instead of being fully turned into vapour. This can feel unpleasant and can make a device seem faulty, especially if you are new to vaping. In most cases, though, spitback is a practical issue rather than a major hardware failure. It is often linked to too much e liquid in or around the coil, the way the device is being used, or a coil that is not heating liquid as cleanly as... Read more...
Why Is My Vape Not Working?
If your vape has suddenly stopped working, you are not alone. This is one of the most common issues people run into, whether they are brand new to vaping or have been using refillable kits for years. In most cases, the cause is fairly simple, such as a flat battery, a poor pod connection, a locked device, a burnt coil, or e-liquid that has run too low. For smokers who have switched, or for newer users trying to stay away from cigarettes, I would say it helps to know that... Read more...
Why Is My Vape Lighting Up But Not Hitting?
A vape that lights up but does not produce vapour is a very common problem and in most cases the cause is something fairly simple rather than a complete device failure. This article is for new vapers, smokers trying to switch and regular users who want a clear explanation of what may be going wrong. I have to be honest, this sort of fault can feel confusing because the light makes it seem as though everything is working, when in reality only one part of the device is responding. In...

Why Is My Vape Leaking?
A leaking vape is one of the most common problems adult vapers run into, whether they use a refillable pod kit, a tank, or a more advanced device. This guide is for new vapers, smokers who have recently switched, and experienced users who want a clear explanation of what is actually going wrong. In most cases, leaking is not a sign that the whole device is ruined. It usually means the balance between e liquid, airflow, coil fit, filling method, and storage has been disrupted. What Vape Leaking Usually Means... Read more...
Why Is My Vape Bubbling?
If your vape is bubbling, crackling more than usual, or making a wet gurgling noise, you are not alone. This is one of the most common issues people notice with pod kits, refillable devices, and some prefilled systems. In most cases it is not a serious fault. It usually means there is a little too much e liquid sitting in the coil or airflow area, or that the device is drawing liquid into places it should not really be. This article is for new vapers, smokers thinking about switching, and... Read more...
