So what can you vape?
Disposables are a relatively recent addition to the market, and before they came along, there were already effective alternatives in place. For those looking for a more cost-efficient option, pod systems are the way to go. They come in a wide variety of brands, styles, and colours, making them the most popular choice today. With refillable pods, replaceable coils and rechargeable batteries, pod systems are not only more eco-friendly but also more budget-friendly. Plus, they offer access to thousands of flavours from global brands, available in nicotine strengths ranging from 0mg to 20mg.

If however, you enjoy the disposable ranges currently and want to keep that simplicity aslong as your device can be recharged AND the eliquid chamber can be refilled or replaced they will remain available.
