Indeed, these nicotine salts are very satiating, as they are prepared to be used in doses of up to
20mg/ml of nicotine (which is recommended for PODs ), but without producing those unwanted
effects of coughing, dizziness, or “scraping” of the throat that some vaping users suffer from.
But nicotine salts cannot be used in high-power vapers, they must be used with PODs, which
have low power and deliver the nicotine more gradually, so that, although not as much vapor is
produced as with other more powerful vapers, the feeling of satiety is very high and you no longer
feel like smoking tobacco for a long time.
Nicotine by itself is addictive, but it is much more so in the context of a tobacco cigarette, in which
all the additives produce a dependency that is very difficult to overcome.
Also, remember that the objective of vapers or electronic cigarettes is initially to replace
tobacco, that is, you must use all the nicotine you can tolerate, without fear of causing more
damage to your body.
First, you must manage to quit tobacco, with all the potential that a vaper can give you, and then
when you have achieved it, you can switch to non-tobacco flavors, such as fruity or sweet, and
in turn, you can lower the nicotine gradually until you are able to vape with zero nicotine.
This is something that cannot be done with conventional cigarettes and that is why it is so
difficult to quit. Once you get to this point, You will have gotten rid of unwanted tobacco and
nicotine, all in one play!
And why are PODs so small?
Well, by not requiring as much vaping power, to produce the desired feeling of satiety, we do not
need such large and heavy batteries. We are satisfied with batteries between 300mAh and
1500mAh, which are the ones commonly used by PODs. It is evident that the most advanced
vaping users have very powerful, bulky, and heavy devices because for them they are the best
option, but nobody wants such heavy batteries and if they use them it is because they do not have
more options. The ideal is to be able to use vapers such as PODs that are pocket-sized, being
able to transport them easily without inconvenience.
So PODs are so small because by using low power, they don’t drain their batteries as quickly and
this allows us to use smaller batteries with which we can use the POD all day without fear of
running out of charge. Same battery life, minimum size, and maximum efficiency, all in one.
POD Types
PODs have been devised to be very easy to use, but there are always different types of people
with different preferences, which is why two types of PODs have been devised, open cartridges
and closed cartridges. You must choose which one best suits your needs.
PODs work with cartridges, which are pieces that are inserted into the POD as if they were a
detachable device. The cartridge is made up of the tank for the liquid, the resistance of the
atomizer, and the power button.
Open cartridge PODs contain a refillable tank, which allows you to choose your liquids, flavors,
and nicotine level, being able to refill it as many times as you need until the resistance reaches
its useful life and it is necessary to change the cartridge.
Closed cartridge PODs cannot be refilled and come in different flavors and nicotine levels. They
are disposable, once the liquid is used up, it is changed for a new cartridge. These are the least
used because of their lack of versatility, sometimes they can even release drops of liquid in the
mouth, but some users do not want to get too complicated and choose this type of cartridge.
The most used is the open cartridge ones, as they offer greater versatility and allow you to choose
flavors and nicotine level to taste.
Advantages of PODs
● Their feeling of satiety is maximum, being ideal for quitting smoking.
● They require little power, so their batteries are small.
● Its total size is very small, pocket-size, being very easy to transport.
● Although they produce a moderate amount of vapor, they are very discreet, you can take
quick hits and no one will know you are using them, since it fits completely in your hand.
● They are very easy to use, and they do not require prior learning. Most have a single
power button and nothing else. It involves removing and inserting cartridges and refilling
them with the chosen liquid.
● They are much cheaper than other more advanced vapers.
Disadvantages of PODs
● If you use sealed POD cartridges, the range of flavors and brands is considerably
smaller than with regular vapers.
● Due to its small size, the POD reservoir is also small, 2ml on average, although
cartridges with larger reservoirs for PODs, up to 8ml, are increasingly being found.
● The batteries are also small, so their life is limited. If they are used too intensively, it will
be necessary to recharge them or have spare batteries.
SUMMARY
Remember that you should not be afraid of nicotine. Remember that nicotine is one more
component in conventional cigarettes, tobacco contains hundreds of substances that, altogether,
produce an enhancement of addiction.
