What are nicotine salts and how are they different to freebase e-liquids?
Nicotine salts, aka nic salts, are a type of e-liquid that uses a different form of nicotine than traditional e-liquids. They were developed as a way to deliver a higher level of nicotine to the user without causing the harsh throat hit that can be associated with high levels of freebase nicotine.
Nic salts are made by combining nicotine with an acid, such as benzoic acid, to create a more stable and absorbable form of nicotine. The resulting e-liquid is smoother to vape and can deliver a higher level of nicotine without the harshness that can be experienced with high levels of freebase nicotine.
Salts are becoming increasingly popular, especially among users of pod-style e-cigarettes, which are designed for use with high-nicotine e-liquids. They are generally considered to be a good choice for smokers who are trying to switch to vaping and who are looking for a satisfying alternative to traditional cigarettes.

Can you use nic salts with a vape mod?
Yes, you can use a vape mod with nicotine salt e-liquids. Vape mods are typically more powerful devices that are capable of vaporising e-liquids with a wide range of nicotine strengths.
However, it is important to note that nicotine salts are generally used in lower wattage devices and are intended to be used with a high level of nicotine. Using a high-wattage device with nicotine salt e-liquids can potentially deliver too much nicotine to the user and can also cause the e-liquid to taste burnt.
If you want to use a vape mod with nicotine salt e-liquids, it is generally recommended to use a lower wattage setting and to start with a lower nicotine strength. This will help to ensure a smooth, satisfying vaping experience and can also help to reduce the risk of experiencing any negative effects from vaping too much nicotine.
Typically, shortfill e-liquids with less nicotine are used with vape mods and high wattage vape devices.
Which e-cigarette devices are best for nic salts?
Nicotine salt e-liquids are generally best suited for use in low-wattage, pod-style e-cigarette devices. These devices are designed to be used with high-nicotine e-liquids and can provide a smooth, satisfying vaping experience with nicotine salt e-liquids.
Pod-style devices are generally small, compact, and easy to use, which makes them a convenient choice for many users. They are also typically less expensive and more discreet than larger, more powerful vape mods.
That being said, nicotine salt e-liquids can also be used in other types of e-cigarette devices, including vape pens and box mods. However, it is generally recommended to use a lower wattage setting with these devices to avoid delivering too much nicotine and to ensure a smooth, satisfying vaping experience.
Ultimately, the best device for using nicotine salt e-liquids will depend on your personal preferences and needs. It is generally recommended to start with a low-wattage, pod-style device and to experiment with different devices and settings to find the one that works best for you.
