Frequently Asked Questions
Core uses freebase nicotine, Double Brew uses nicotine salts. Freebase gives a firmer, more noticeable throat hit at the same strength and absorbs a little more slowly. Salts feel smoother and satisfy cravings faster. If you find 20mg salts too smooth to notice, a 12mg or 18mg Core bottle may suit you better.
Freebase strengths read lower than salt strengths but feel stronger. Light or social smokers usually sit at 3mg or 6mg. A ten a day habit maps to 12mg. Only heavy smokers moving straight from twenty a day tend to stay on 18mg, and many step down within weeks because of the throat hit.
Any refillable pod kit or vape pen with a coil at 0.8 ohm or above. Higher strength freebase is designed for low power mouth-to-lung draws; run 12mg or 18mg in a sub ohm device and the hit becomes unpleasant. Keep it in a small kit and it behaves exactly as intended.
