Vaping involves inhaling vapour produced by an electronic device, typically called a vape or e-cigarette. The device heats an e-liquid (which often contains nicotine, flavourings, and a base of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine) to create vapour. Vaping is a popular alternative to smoking traditional cigarettes as it provides nicotine without the harmful tar and many toxic chemicals found in tobacco smoke.

While vaping is considered much safer than smoking traditional cigarettes—up to 95% less harmful, according to Public Health England—it is not entirely without risk. The absence of tobacco combustion in vaping drastically reduces exposure to harmful substances, but nicotine, an addictive substance, is still present in most e-liquids.

Many people use vaping as a tool to quit smoking. E-cigarettes can help manage nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms, making it easier to transition away from smoking. However, the success rate varies, and it's essential to choose the right device and e-liquid strength for your needs​. We recommend higher strength e-liquids (between 15-20mg) for heavy smokers and strengths of 5-10mg to moderate/light smokers.

There are various vape devices, including vape pens, pod systems, mods, and disposables. Vape pens are simple and portable, ideal for beginners, while mods offer advanced features and customization. Disposable vapes are convenient and require no maintenance, perfect for those who prefer a hassle-free option.

The lifespan of a vape coil varies depending on usage, but typically, a coil can last between one to four weeks. You'll know it's time to replace it when you experience a burnt taste or reduced vapour production​. At which point you should replace the coil immediately following the manufacturer's instructions.

The Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) is an EU regulation that sets rules for the sale and marketing of vaping products:

• E-Liquid Limits: Nicotine-containing e-liquids are restricted to 10ml bottles and a maximum strength of 20mg/ml.
• Tank Size: Refillable vape tanks cannot exceed 2ml in capacity.
• Labelling: Products must have child-resistant packaging, health warnings, and detailed ingredient lists.
• Approval: New vape products must be approved by regulators before being sold.
• Advertising: TPD restricts vape advertising, particularly on TV, radio, and online.

Yes, you can take vapes on a plane, but there are specific rules to follow:

• Carry-On Only: Vapes and e-cigarettes must be packed in your carry-on luggage, not in checked bags. This is due to the risk of battery fires.
• E-Liquids: E-liquids are subject to the same liquid restrictions as other items. You can bring bottles of up to 100ml each in a clear, resealable plastic bag.
• No In-Flight Use: You cannot use or charge your vape on the plane. Vaping is prohibited on all commercial flights.
• Battery Safety: If carrying spare batteries, keep them in a protective case to prevent short-circuiting.

In the UK, the legal age to buy vape products, including e-cigarettes and e-liquids, is 18 years old. Retailers like us are required to verify the age of customers before selling any vaping products. It is illegal to purchase vape products for anyone under the age of 18.

Yes, the UK is moving forward with plans to ban disposable vapes as part of the Tobacco and Vapes Bill 2024, largely due to concerns about their impact on youth and the environment. The ban is part of a broader effort to reduce underage vaping and tackle the significant waste generated by these single-use products.
