Nic salt vs freebase e-liquid
Two kinds of e-liquid sit on our shelves. Here is how they differ and which devices each one is made for.
The short version
What the strength number means
The number on the bottle, such as 20 mg, is the amount of nicotine per millilitre of e-liquid. A 20 mg/mL e-liquid has more nicotine in every millilitre than a 3 mg/mL one.
Because devices deliver different amounts of vapour per puff, the same strength can feel very different from one device to another. That is why each type of e-liquid is paired with a type of device.
Which device uses which
Pod systems are small, low-wattage devices with higher-resistance coils. They are designed for salt nicotine e-liquid.
Sub-ohm devices run at higher wattage with low-resistance coils and produce much more vapour per puff. They are designed for low-strength freebase e-liquid.
Using a high-strength salt nic e-liquid in a sub-ohm device is not what either product is designed for. If you are not sure what your device takes, check its manual or ask our staff.
Reading our product names
On our site, e-liquids marked Salt are salt nicotine. Products in 3 mg or 6 mg strengths are freebase. The strength is always shown in the product name, for example "20mg".
Browse all e-liquids, or see the disposable vs pod system guide if you are still choosing a device.
