What are nicotine shots?

Nicotine shots (or "nic shots") are intended for use with "shortfill" e-liquids.

Shortfill bottles contain zero nicotine liquid as well as a bit of extra space for a nic shot or two.

Nic shots come in 10ml bottles in a relatively high strength (usually 15mg-20mg), which when diluted into a shortfill bottle will result in a lower strength, high VG eliquid for use in sub-ohm devices.

For example:

A 50ml shortfill comes in a 60ml size bottle (with 10ml empty space).

Add 1 x 18mg nic shot and shake the bottle thoroughly

Resulting strength is 3mg


What are nicotine SALTS?

Nicotine salts are designed for vapers who like a solid nicotine hit but without the harshness on the throat.

Nic salts absorb into the body more quickly (they're more "bioavailable") but the overall vaping experience is much smoother.

So, if the higher strength liquids hurt your throat or make you cough, but the lower strengths aren't satisfying your needs, then nicotine salts could be your way forward!

Use 1 bottle with 50ml, or 2 with 100ml for a final strength of 3mg/ml.
