How do I vape? Are you supposed to inhale when you vape?Updated 2 years ago

To start off vaping, make sure first that your coil is primed correctly. Begin inhaling and hold the fire button until you have finished your drag, then let go of the fire button. You never want the device to be firing while not inhaling through it, as this will cause the coil to burn out prematurely.

Knowing how to inhale correctly is important, especially for first-time vapers. This can make or break the experience for the newcomers and lead to an unpleasant experience. Also, be aware that you do not have to inhale if you don't want to.

There are essentially two types of inhalation techniques, one being Mouth-To-Lung and the other being Direct-to-Lung. The ideal technique varies depending on the person; ex-smokers will likely use the Mouth-To-Lung technique as it simulates a cigarette-type draw. To do this, follow the below steps:

1. Slowly draw vapour into your mouth, as much as you require
2. Hold in your mouth until you’re ready to inhale
3. Open your mouth and breathe in the vapour
4. Exhale right after vapour enters the lungs

The direct-to-lung technique will be ideal for larger vape devices with low resistance coils and low amounts of nicotine, such as 3mg and 6mg. To do this technique is simple; follow the steps below:

1. Quickly draw vapour directly into the lungs (Unlike Mouth-to-Lung)
2. Exhale the vapour immediately after it enters the lungs

Some vaping devices give you the option of adjusting the Airflow Control (AFC) so that you can find your own sweet spot. Some may like a restricted direct lung hit so they can slightly close their airflow on their Direct Lung device, while others may want a Mouth-To-Lung hit with a little more air, simply open the Airflow Control wider.
