Concerns about vape use

With the popularity of vape in recent years, it has attracted more and more users. However, there followed a series of doubts during use. From cartridge flavor fading to e-liquid discoloration to dry mouth and other discomforts, these problems have troubled vape users. In this article, we’ll explore six common vape usage concerns and provide corresponding solutions.

1. The smell of the cartridge becomes weak

"Why does the flavor of the cartridge become weaker after smoking it for a while?" This is a question that many vape users will encounter. Although the shelf life of cartridges is usually about two years, the flavor may fade from time to time. There are two reasons for this phenomenon: first, the cartridge is exposed to the air after being unpacked, causing the fragrance and coolness in the e-liquid to gradually evaporate and become lighter; second, using the same e-liquid for a long time can cause taste fatigue , making the taste buds less sensitive to the taste. The solution is to try to avoid using the same e-liquid for a long time, buy more e-liquids of different flavors and use them alternately, and appropriately reduce the frequency of smoking or suspend use for a period of time when taste fatigue occurs.

2. e-liquid changes color

"Why does e-liquid change color after a few days of smoking?" This is also a common question. The propylene glycol in e-liquid will undergo an oxidation reaction when it comes into contact with air, causing the color of the e-liquid to gradually turn reddish brown, which is normal. While discoloration does not affect the usability of e-liquid, it may slightly affect taste. In order to maintain the quality of e-liquid, it is recommended to store e-liquid properly, especially e-liquid containing mint ingredients to prevent the e-liquid from evaporating.

3. Dry mouth and discomfort

"Why does my mouth always feel dry when I smoke atomized cigarettes?" Dry mouth is a discomfort that many vape users often encounter. This is because the vegetable glycerin (VG) in e-liquid is highly hygroscopic and will absorb moisture in the mouth, causing a dry mouth feeling. The solution is simple, just drink more water. It should be noted that dry mouth is not a sign of poor quality of e-liquid, but is determined by the nature of vegetable glycerin itself. Therefore, any e-liquid may cause dry mouth, and drinking more water is the best solution.

4. e-liquid storage

Proper storage of e-liquid is also the key to maintaining quality. Do not expose e-liquid to direct sunlight to avoid accelerating the color change of e-liquid. Especially for e-liquids containing mint ingredients, you need to pay more attention to prevent the essence from evaporating. It is recommended to use e-liquid within a certain period of time, or store e-liquid in a suitable e-liquid storage box when not in use to prevent oxidation and discoloration.

5. Suction nuances

"The first few puffs have a weak taste, but it gets better afterward." This situation occurs because e-liquid atomization requires a process, and the temperature and composition of the first few puffs may be different from the subsequent puffs. This is normal, don't worry too much.

6. Usage control

When vaping, you should pay attention to using it in moderation and avoid being greedy and vaping violently. Excessive use may cause throat discomfort, coughing, etc., so you need to pay attention to controlling the daily usage to avoid adverse reactions.

In general, concerns about vape use can be resolved. By rationally selecting e-liquid, paying attention to storage, and controlling usage, the troubles caused by these problems can be effectively alleviated or avoided, allowing users to better enjoy the fun of vape.
