What Is the Most Reliable Vape?

What Is the Most Reliable Vape?

May 23, 2023

The vaping industry is growing at a breakneck pace, so fast that regulations can barely keep up with the new products entering the marketplace. 

While there are many scrupulous vape brands, it’s no secret that some vapes are safer than others. 

As a consumer, you want to be diligent about researching the safety features of each device. We’ll break down how to use vapes safely and what features to look for to minimize harm. 

Open vs. Closed System Vapes

Not all vapes are made equal. There are two types of vaping systems – an open and closed system. 

Open-system vaping devices are completely customizable, allowing you to choose your desired e-liquid and refill the tank. There’s also a removable mouthpiece, so you can interchangeably switch mouthpieces for more personalization and to better clean the residue accumulated over time. 

If you’re someone who enjoys total control of your vaping experience, open pod systems are the perfect choice. That said, they come with a bulky design due to their larger battery and tank setup. While allowing for more power and longer battery life, open pod systems can feel complex, especially for new vapers. 

Closed pod systems are no-mess, no-fuss devices since they already come pre-filled with e-liquid and ready-to-use. While you can't refill these pods or cartridges, closed systems are more convenient, compact, and easy to use. 

How To Use Open-System Vapes Safely

  • Opt for a power-regulated mod with a removable battery. These devices offer advanced safety features that prevent short circuits, overuse, and overheating. 
  • Routine keep-up with maintenance procedures, such as replacing the coils and regularly cleaning the device.
  • Avoid using vaping devices with damaged parts or loose connections. 
  • Store e-liquids in a cool, dry place and avoid exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
  • Only use an external charger compatible with the device, and follow the manual’s instructions carefully when charging. 
  • Monitor the battery level and replace it when it shows signs of damage or wear. 
  • Use durable batteries from reputable brands. 

How To Use Closed-System Vapes Safely

  • If the closed system vape has recharging capabilities, use the appropriate charge for the device and avoid overcharging the battery
  • When not in use, store the hardware in a cool, dry place since extreme heat can affect the performance and battery life. 
  • Use the vaping device as directed, and don’t try to modify it in any way. 
  • Avoid chain vaping, which occurs when you’re vaping frequently or repeatedly inhaling without taking a break in between. 
  • Take slow, deep breaths when inhaling to reduce the risk of lung irritation or damage.

What Makes a Vape Safe?

Whether you’re a vape aficionado or new to it, we all want to vape more safely. While it’s certainly never risk-free, looking for safety features or performing your due diligence on retailers can go a long way in preventing accidents and minimizing health risks. 

Diacetyl-free E-juice 

Diacetyl is a liquid-form organic compound most commonly added to food products such as popcorn. While it’s safe to consume in food products, diacetyl can harm the lungs when inhaled. It’s best to avoid diacetyl altogether, so be on the lookout for this ingredient in your e-juice to protect your health. Other ingredients to avoid are acetyl propionyl and acetoin since they may link to potential respiratory and other health problems.

Auto Shut-Off

The auto shut-off feature is a must-have to prevent the vaping device from overheating and reducing the risk of accidents. 

Generally, the device will automatically shut off after a certain number of puffs or a specific time period. When the shut-off feature is triggered, it’ll stop producing vapour, entering standby mode. 

By inhibiting the vape device from incessantly firing, this feature reduces the risk of touching an overheating device or unintentionally consuming excessive amounts of vapour. The auto shut-off feature also helps to conserve battery life, ensuring your pen remains operational for a long time. 

Temperature Control Technology

More advanced vapes, especially open-system devices, should have a temperature control setting that allows you to adjust the temperature limit, ranging between 148 to 315 degrees Celsius. 

The power delivered to the coil will keep your coil and vape at the desired temperature. As a result, it creates a content vaping experience, ensuring the vape doesn’t get too hot, which can lead to a burnt or dry sensation. 

Leak Prevention 

Leaking occurs when e-liquid escapes your tank, typically through an airflow system. Not only does this lead to wasted e-liquid, but it also can pose a few safety hazards. For example, nicotine and other chemicals can cause harm if they get to your skin or are ingested. 

Your vape device should have a leak-proof design, with tight seals around the cartridge or tank to prevent any leakage and exposure to harsh chemicals. 

Purchasing From a Reputable Retailer 

You can avoid a slew of issues if you simply buy devices from reputable retailers. For starters, the vendors should be TPD compliant and have the certifications and experiences to show for it. 

Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) is a regulation from the European Union with key requirements that manufacturers must meet. It’s designed to protect consumers by instilling upholdable standards for safety and quality on all tobacco products, including e-cigarettes and vaping devices. It may include restrictions on the strength of nicotine for e-liquids, the size of e-liquid bottles, and requirements for clear labelling and child-resistant packaging. 

There are other factors to consider when researching a reputable retailer, such as GMP (good manufacturing practice) approved and ISO 9001 and 14000 certified. GMP is a regulation from the FDA that ensures the quality of drug products. The FDA monitors the facilities, methods, and controls utilized in the manufacturing process and packaging of the device, ensuring it’s safe to use and the claims are accurate. 

ISO 9001 and 14000 certified are two management systems that regulate the internal processes for their production. ISO 9001 may include maintaining documented safe practices that affect the quality of the hardware, such as the design, production, and delivery. 

On the other hand, an ISO 14000 is designed to minimize environmental impact, such as implementing procedures in the manufacturing process to reduce waste and energy consumption.

What Is the Least Harmful Way to Vape?

Practising safe vaping habits minimizes potential harm, such as good oral hygiene and vaping in moderation. Taking breaks between vaping sessions limits exposure to nicotine.
