What are Nic Salts?
Nic salts or nicotine salt e-liquids are a form of vape juice that uses nicotine in salt form to deliver a smoother and more pronounced nicotine hit. They are formulated using chemicals like benzoic, lactic or levulinic acid to form a more stable protonated compound.
Nic salts or Freebase nicotine?
The two most common types of e-liquid are freebase and nic salts, which differ in the vaping experience they provide.
Freebase liquids have been around the longest. They deliver a harsher throat hit and often come in a wider range of strengths. We recommend them for users looking to replicate the experience of smoking cigarettes or want to manage their nicotine intake more gradually.
Nic Salts are a newer addition to the world of vaping, and excel in rapid satisfaction and more pronounced flavours. We recommend nic salts to anyone moving away from disposable vapes or heavy smoking, and they’re also great in lower strengths for people who just love rich flavour.
Picking out the strength for you
Finding the right nicotine strength for you is essential for a good experience, so here is a quick guide:
20mg (2.0%) High strength, best suited for heavy smokers or disposable users.
10mg (1.0%) Medium strength, best used by moderate smokers.
5mg (0.5%) Low strength, ideal for people weening themselves off nicotine gradually.
Everyone is different so we recommend experimenting with strengths until you find the right one for you.
