18mg Tobacco E-Liquid

18mg tobacco vape juice is an e-liquid for vaping, made with the highest dose of freebase nicotine, ideal for managing even the most intense cravings.

Alongside freebase nicotine, 18mg tobacco vape juice contains:

• PG (propylene glycol used to carry flavour and create stable blends)
• VG (vegetable glycerol used to create more vapour and enhance smoothness)
• Tobacco flavours (premium quality vape flavourings purpose-built for use in e-cigarettes)

Yes, 18mg tobacco vape juice is considered 'strong', in fact, it is the highest freebase nicotine strength you are likely to find in a UK-Made e-liquid.

It delivers a powerful throat hit that can be too intense for some vapers, but highly valued by others.

Whether or not 18mg is right for you will depend on your previous smoking habits. Heavy smokers of 20+ cigarettes per day often gravitate towards 18mg e-liquids at the start of their vaping journeys as they offer a comparable intensity and hit.

18mg tobacco vape juice has a particular appeal to heavy ex-smokers, as the combination of a familiar flavour profile and intense throat-hit is often reported to be an excellent like-for-like experience, helping to ease the transition to vaping.

Whether or not 18mg tobacco vapes will be useful for quitting smoking depends on your individual needs/circumstances.

There are pros and cons to using 18mg tobacco vape juice to quit smoking that you should keep in mind:

Pros of using 18mg tobacco vapes to quit smoking

• A familiar flavour that can ease the transition to vaping.
• A very strong nicotine hit that can satisfy intense cravings, ideal for heavy former smokers (20+ cigarettes per day).
• A powerful throat hit that mimics the sensations experienced when smoking cigarettes regularly.

Cons of using 18mg tobacco vapes to quit smoking

• Unless you were a particularly heavy smoker, 18mg vape juice may be too strong, and the throat hit may be too intense for your needs, even when paired with smoother menthol flavours.

Choosing between a high-strength freebase tobacco e-liquid or tobacco nic salt most often comes down to your personal preferences and tolerance for throat hit.

Let's compare the two so you can see the differences:

18mg tobacco freebase vape juice

• Very strong throat hit.
• High-impact craving satisfaction but slower absorption.
• Familiar cigarette-like flavour profiles.
• Ideal for heavy former smokers who crave a throat hit for familiarity and strong nicotine for craving management when transitioning to vaping.

20mg tobacco nic salt vape juice

• Almost no throat hit.
• Fast-acting and long-lasting craving satisfaction.
• Rich, double-concentrated flavours that tend to be sweeter.
• Ideal for heavy former smokers who need high-impact nicotine to manage cravings, but who have a low tolerance for throat hit. Also great for former disposable vapers looking to switch to refillable kits.

The main reason 18mg e-liquid can burn in a sub-ohm vape kit is that they have a 50/50 PG/VG ratio, and sub-ohm vape kits use coils designed to work only with 80/20, 70/30 or similar thick High-VG e-liquids.

The reasons this compatibility issue can cause burning include:

• Sub-ohm HVG vape coils reach higher temperatures than those rated for normal vape juice. This causes the thinner vape juice to evaporate far too quickly, meaning in only a few puffs, you can dry out and risk burning the coil wick.
  
  
• High-powered sub-ohm vape kits make higher nicotine strengths like 18mg taste/feel extremely harsh. This can often create a burning sensation even if the coil itself is not yet damaged.

18mg tobacco vapes should only be used in 50/50 compatible "MTL" vape kits, running coils rated no lower than 1.0ohm.

They don't, however, require expensive or advanced tech to be enjoyed at their best, which gives you plenty of options when choosing the best vape kit to use with them.

Simple starter kits work just as well as advanced kits when vaping tobacco flavours, and offer a fuss-free vaping experience ideal for beginners or casual vapers. Some of the best examples include:

• Vaporesso Xros 5 Nano
• OPEL (our own pod starter kit)
• OXVA Xlim Go 2

If you are a more experienced vaper who values adjustable features, the following advanced kits work great with tobacco flavours:

• Innokin Plexus Pro
• Geekvape Wenax Q2
• Vaporesso Xros Pro 2

Important Things To Note When Buying A Vape Kit For 18mg Tobacco Vape Juice:

• 12mg tobacco e-liquids are "normal" 50/50 style vape juice, so you will need to look for vape kits that state they are compatible with 50/50 e-liquid or "MTL" vaping.
• Higher-powered kits are not recommended when vaping 18mg tobacco e-liquids, as generally, lower wattage outputs perform better when managing 18mg's powerful throat hit. You are unlikely to need more than 10-15 watts of power to vape them at their best.

Due to 18mg tobacco vape juice having a very intense throat hit, vape coils with higher ohm ratings, such as 1.0ohm or 1.2ohm, are recommended for a smoother and more enjoyable daily vaping experience.

These are considered "MTL" coils, which stands for mouth-to-lung. This relates to an inhale style/experience more similar to smoking a cigarette. As 18mg is a very common strength for recent ex-smokers starting out with vaping, this familiarity to smoking makes MTL coils a great pairing with 18mg tobacco vape juice.

Some of the best vape coils for 18mg tobacco vape juice are built into vape pods from some of the most popular brands on the market. We recommend:

• Vaporesso Xros 1.0ohm mesh pod (best for flavour) or 1.2ohm pod (best for 18mg smoothness) - both are compatible with the full Xros vape kit series.
  
• Innokin Klypse 1.2ohm pod - compatible with the full Innokin Klypse vape kit range.
  
  
• OXVA Xlim 1.2ohm mesh pod (great for flavour and smoothness) - compatible with the full OXVA Xlim vape kit range.

18mg tobacco vape juice can be an intense vaping experience, combining the rich flavours of tobacco with a powerful throat hit.

Tobacco flavours are often rich and have a lot of depth but are particularly familiar for ex-smokers, ideal for all-day vaping as a new user, while the 18mg freebase nicotine throat hit is strong and intense, particularly enjoyable if you smoked a lot of cigarettes before switching to vaping.

As 18mg is such a high strength, however, it is not suitable for all vapers, only those who have a high tolerance for throat hit or who prefer this experience.

There are a number of reasons 18mg tobacco e-liquid might burn out coils fast in pod systems.

One of the biggest issues we experience with our customers is using the wrong pod for the e-liquid type, and this is the most common reason we see for 18mg e-liquid burning coils fast.

This happens because most modern pod vape kits offer a range of pods with different ohm coils, and despite all being compatible with 50/50 e-liquid, some are optimised for nic salts while others are better suited to freebase e-liquid like 18mg. This causes a lot of confusion for less experienced vapers, and even for some who have vaped for years.

To avoid burning through coils fast when vaping with 18mg freebase tobacco e-liquid, follow the advice below:

• Only use pods with coils rated at 1.0ohm or above - they are designed to work best with stronger 50/50 freebase e-liquids. Look out for pods described as "MTL" to know you are on the right track.
  
  
• Avoid pods described as being "RDTL" - these are often rated between 0.4ohm and 0.8ohm and are designed for smooth nic salts, not intense freebase e-liquids.
  
  
• Stick to lower wattage outputs - if you are using a correct MTL pod with your freebase e-liquid, the device should automatically adjust to a lower power output, but if it has variable wattage, you should ensure it does not exceed 15 watts. Any higher, and you risk burning out the coil quickly.
