How Do I Make My Disposable Last Longer?
You can make your disposable last longer by storing your vape at room temperature and minimising chain vaping as much as you can.
In some rare instances, disposable vapes can run out quicker than expected, but this may be down to several reasons; they are not being used as frequently, and it is not stored in a cold environment which makes it harder for the device to heat the liquid or the user is not taking full inhales.
There is no guaranteed method to make your disposable vape last longer, but a few tips can help your disposable device's longevity.
Using the device less frequently
A simple way to make your disposable vape last that little bit longer is to reduce how frequently you use your vape. Unlike a regular cigarette, e-cigarettes and disposables vapes do not finish after 15-20 inhales, meaning that it can become a habit to vape your device way more often, but trying to reduce the amount you use your device should make your liquid last that little bit longer and should also not deplete the battery so fast.
Correct Storage
Another tip to extending the life of a disposable vape that is not so commonly known is to ensure it is being stored correctly. If your disposable vape is stored in a cold environment, it will struggle to heat the e-liquid that produces the vapour. Storing the disposable device around room temperature can help the liquid stay runny, so the battery does not have to be used as much to heat the coil, effectively making your disposable vape last slightly longer.
Smaller Inhales
Another tip that may not be ideal for many users of disposable vapes is to take smaller inhales. Doing this means that you are not using up as much liquid or using up as much battery power to activate the device, which will help your device last longer, but you may be sacrificing that satisfying "hit" that you crave.
How Long Should Your Disposable Vape Last?
DIsposable vapes, on average last between 200-600 puffs.
The average disposable vape can last up to anywhere from 200 to 600 puffs, but in some cases, you can find disposable vapes with a larger puff count. Please remember that some larger puff count products may not be legally sold in the UK.
The most common battery size of disposable vapes is around 280mAh, but they can range up to 850mAh. However, it is not just the battery capacity that determines how long a disposable vape will last, but also the amount of vape juice it contains. The average amount of vape juice in disposable vapes and most vape pens and mod kits is around 1.5 to 2ml. The juice capacity can be no larger than 2ml due to the TPD regulations that came into power that state no vape device/tank sold in the UK can be no larger than 2ml.
