Choosing your device comes down to personal preference—it’s different for everybody—but there are some basic tips that can help you pick. The first is the type of nicotine throat hit you’re looking for. With a larger sub-ohm vape, you’ll primarily use freebase E-liquid, delivering a harsher nicotine hit. The bigger, usually external, batteries provide the power to create enormous clouds of vapour. If this sounds like what you’re looking for, the Geekvape Aegis Boost PLUS and Voopoo Drag Max are great devices to try. If you’re new to sub-ohm vaping, a device like the Vaporesso Luxe PM40 is the perfect one to start with.

Pod vapes are fantastic for those who are looking to quit smoking. The low-wattage devices allow the use of salted nicotine, have a tighter draw, and a much smoother nicotine hit for vapers. Pen-style vapes are much more discreet, only producing small clouds, similar to the size of those produced by cigarettes. Devices like the Caliburn A2 and the Smok NOVO 3 are great for first-time vapers looking to make the transition from smoking.

Everybody has their own flavour preferences. If you’re a first-time vaper, think about your favourite tastes and try to find a corresponding vape juice. The best flavour for quitting smoking is certainly tobacco, keeping things familiar for ex-smokers to make the transition to vaping more comfortable. Some of the most popular vape juice flavours include Arctic Ice, Disco Dust, and Cola Bottles.

Cost is one of the leading reasons for Kiwis to give up smoking for good, but how much cheaper is vaping?

Smokefree NZ explains that the initial set-up costs can add up $40-60. Of course, this can vary depending on what device you purchase. A large sub-ohm vape can set you back $80-$100, but there’s a device out there perfectly suited to any budget.

After these set-up purchases, you’ll be spending an estimated 10% of what smoking would cost you. Smokefree NZ suggests that a pack of cigarettes a day would add up to around $9,000 a year, whereas vaping would only cost around $900 annually.

We ship all of our nicotine vape juices to Australia, but due to recent changes in vape regulations, Australian customers must have a valid nicotine prescription. The process to obtain your nicotine prescription is easy. With just a few simple steps, you can import our delicious nicotine E-liquids to Australia.
