The French e-liquid manufacturer V’APE is launching a new range of nicotine salts without benzoic acid
A brief history
When vaping first started, only classic e-liquids with nicotine existed. These e-liquids were hard to inhale as a result of the infamous, strong first “hit” that often irritated the throat. Afterwards, manufacturers compensated by lowering the level of nicotine while increasing the device’s power. This led to an increase in energy usage, but it also led to an increase in e-liquid usage, which meant less accessibility for beginners.
Everything changed once nicotine salts arrived on the scene. By using an acid that couples with nicotine to trigger its effects, nicotine salts allow for a softer “hit,” which also allows users to vape higher levels of nicotine. Nicotine salts further allow users to vape with less power but the same efficiency, leading to substantial savings.
A difference in size
Today, V’APE is announcing a new range of nicotine salt e-liquids that vary in size. After over one year of R&D, V’APE has developed nicotine salt e-liquids that use lactic acid instead of benzoic acid, which is generally used for nicotine salts and has caused a debate about safety. Vapers can now use nicotine salts without the potential dangers of inhaling benzoic acid, all while consuming products Made in France.
A range of products for everyone
V’APE currently proposes four flavours in the 10ml format: MILD TOBACCO (blond tobacco), STRONG TOBACCO (brown tobacco), RED BERRIES and MINT.
The nicotine salts come in levels of 10, 15, and 20mg. The 15mg option is particularly interesting, as most manufacturers do not carry this dosage, and many vapers hesitate between choosing 10mg and 20mg.
