Cheap Vape

Cheap and unsafe are not the same thing in UK vaping. Every legal kit and liquid, whatever the price, has passed the same TPD testing and MHRA notification. What you give up at the budget end is packaging, screens and brand tax, not safety or, in most cases, flavour. Some of the best devices ever made for switching from cigarettes cost under £15.

The real money trap is not cheap hardware; it is expensive habits. Prefilled pods and big puff devices cost more per puff than refilling a pod from a bottle, so the cheapest way to vape long-term is a refillable kit plus multipack 10ml e-liquid.

These are the current best-value picks across the whole store, all in stock today.

A refillable pod kit plus bottled e-liquid runs £5 to £8 a week for a typical ex-smoker: a pod every week or two and two or three 10ml bottles. The same week on big puff prefilled devices costs roughly double, and twenty cigarettes a day costs more than both put together in a single day. Three habits keep the costs at the bottom end:

• Prime every new pod or coil with a five-minute soak; burnt cotton is the biggest avoidable expense in vaping
• Buy 10ml liquid in multipacks and shortfills in 100ml bottles rather than singles
• Keep nicotine in salt form at a strength that actually satisfies, so you vape less liquid overall
