What Are Nicotine Salts and How Do They Differ From Regular E-liquid?

Nicotine salts (nic salts) are a specially formulated type of e-liquid that uses nicotine in its natural salt form, combined with benzoic acid. This creates a smoother vaping experience compared to traditional freebase nicotine, especially at higher strengths.

Nic salts are absorbed more quickly into the bloodstream, providing a satisfaction level closer to traditional cigarettes. They're ideal for new vapers transitioning from smoking and those who prefer a more immediate nicotine effect.

Which Nicotine Strength Should I Choose: 10mg or 20mg?

Your choice should be based on your current smoking habits. 

20mg: Best for:

• Heavy smokers (15+ cigarettes per day)

• Those who recently quit smoking

• Vapers wanting a stronger nicotine hit

10mg: Suitable for:

• Light to moderate smokers (under 15 cigarettes per day)

• Those who find 20mg too strong

• Vapers looking to gradually reduce nicotine intake

What Type of Device Should I Use With Nicotine Salts?

Nicotine salts are specifically designed for use with pod-style devices or MTL (mouth-to-lung) tanks. 

• Low wattage (typically under 25W)

• Higher resistance coils (usually 1.0ohm or above)

• Smaller devices with tighter draws

Using nic salts in high-powered sub-ohm devices is not recommended as it can lead to excessive nicotine intake. Learn more about mouth-to-lung vaping to understand why it's perfect for nic salts.

How Long Will a Bottle of Nic Salts Last?

The duration depends on several factors:

• Your vaping frequency

• Device efficiency

• Puff duration

• Individual vaping style

On average, a typical vaper using a pod system might use 1-2ml per day, meaning a 10ml bottle could last approximately 5-10 days. However, this can vary significantly between users.

What’s the Best Way to Store Nicotine Salts?

To maintain the quality of your nic salts:

• Keep in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight

• Store at room temperature (20-25°C)

• Keep bottles tightly sealed when not in use

• Store away from children and pets

• Avoid extreme temperatures

• Use within 1-2 years of manufacture

Frequently Asked Questions

What strength of nicotine salts should I choose?

Nic salts come in a wide range of strengths, so you should choose a strength that works for you and your needs. 
If you used to smoke around 5 to 10 cigarettes a day, then a 6 to 10mg strength nic salt will work well for you. However, if you were used to smoking around an entire pack a day, then you could go for 20mg straight away, or start with 10mg and top up the tank with a 20mg variant if the hit is not strong enough.
If you’re an ex-smoker who’s used to smoking more than a pack a day, then 20mg nic strength and above would offer a better and easier transition from smoking to vaping.
