Vape kits offer several advantages over disposable vapes, starting with their eco-friendly design. Refillable tanks and rechargeable batteries significantly reduce waste, making them a more sustainable option. They are also highly cost-effective, as using refillable e-liquids leads to much lower long-term expenses compared to continuously purchasing disposables. Additionally, vape kits provide customisation options, allowing users to adjust settings such as wattage and airflow while experimenting with a wide range of flavours to create a truly personalised vaping experience.
E-cigarette is the original term given to vapes because they were classed as electronic cigarettes and were cylindrical, similar to the cigarettes they replaced. The term vape is a more recently adopted term, derived from vaping, and is now more commonly used, mainly because vape kits have continued to evolve in appearance.
A pod kit is a device that includes a pod instead of a classic tank, sometimes referred to as a 'hybrid' vape. The pod is generally made of food-grade plastic and can either be a sealed, pre-filled type or refilled using your favourite e-liquid. Unlike traditional tanks that screw onto the device, pods use push magnetic connections and are easier to remove and replace. Many pods have fixed coils while some use replaceable push-fit coils, making it possible to change them.
The term AIO means All-In-One, used to describe a vape that includes the battery body and tank in one simple device, as opposed to a kit that consists of a separate tank and base unit, or mod. Most modern vape kits are by design AIO vape kits which is why the term isn't used so often.
A vape mod is the base unit that contains the battery and controller. Sometimes called a 'box mod', these devices allow the user to customise their vaping experience by using different vape tanks and making adjustments to the various power and wattage settings. Vape mods are often referred to as advanced vapes.
