How to Use InhaleWhen Vaping
Inhaling Mouth-to-Lung Style
You will inhale via mouth-to-lung if you use a small vaping device such as a pod system. A device intended for mouth-to-lung inhalation will have a small mouthpiece. When you puff on it, you’ll notice a lot of air resistance — just like with a cigarette.
A vape device designed for mouth-to-lung inhalation usually features automatic puff-based activation, which produces vapor automatically when you inhale. Others have manual fire buttons, which means that you need to press and hold the button while vaping.
In order to understand mouth-to-lung inhaling, you should know that the physics of vaping are very different from the physics of smoking. You can get a bigger smoke cloud by puffing more aggressively with a cigarette. A vaping device, however, limits vapor production to its power output and atomizer coil efficiency. If you puff more deeply, you’ll get a bigger vapor cloud than if you puff harder.
Benefits of Mouth-to-Lung Inhaling
Mouth-to-lung inhaling is done with small devices that create small vapor clouds — and when using that type of device, you’ll generally want to use a high-strength e-liquid, like a nicotine salt e-liquid. When it comes to vaping higher-nicotine e-liquids, mouth-to-lung inhaling is always the best option, because it gives you the same throat hit as smoking a cigarette.
Drawbacks of mouth-to-lung inhalation
Vapers often switch to direct-to-lung inhaling after gaining experience for two primary reasons. Many people find it fun to use a vaping device that creates huge clouds, but you can’t get huge clouds with a mouth-to-lung setup. Direct-to-lung inhalation is the only way to enjoy big clouds.
Direct-to-lung inhalation
is possible with many vaping devices, such as box mods and vape pens. A direct-to-lung vape will have a large refillable glass tank with a wide mouthpiece and big airflow vents on the bottom. Direct-to-lung devices typically have a manual fire button as well. Direct-to-lung vaping requires that you use low-nicotine e-liquid in your tank. For direct-to-lung inhalation, the most popular nicotine strength is 3 mg/ml.
Hold the activation button of your device while taking a deep breath.. You’ll see an enormous vapor cloud when you exhale. Using nicotine vape juice with such a low nicotine strength without compromising your satisfaction is possible due to the enormous cloud production. Although the e-liquid does not contain as much nicotine, you are inhaling so much more with each puff that the lower nicotine strength doesn’t matter. We recommend starting with the 3 mg/ml nicotine strength, and working your way up to the 6 mg/ml strength only when you are certain that you need more nicotine.
Benefits of Direct-to-Lung Inhaling
Direct-to-lung inhaling is the best way to experience the biggest and boldest flavors when you vape. If you’re using a nicotine strength as low as 3 mg/ml, you won’t taste the peppery nicotine vape juice. Because you’ll be inhaling enormous clouds, you’ll only taste the flavor of your e-liquid. You’ll probably enjoy direct-to-lung inhaling if you prefer sweet flavors without nicotine’s savory edge.
Direct-to-lung inhalation also produces a great deal of cloud. Inhaling direct-to-lung is the only way to produce those enormous clouds since your mouth can only hold so much vapor. To make those huge clouds, you will need to use a direct-to-lung inhaler.
Drawbacks of Direct-to-Lung Inhaling
There are two reasons why you might not enjoy the direct-to-lung inhaling style, and the first reason is that you might miss the throat hit that you get with mouth-to-lung inhaling. People who vape need a throat hit to feel satisfied.
Inhaling E-Liquid Into Your Mouth If you get e-liquid in your mouth when inhaling, you are using too much air pressure. Mouth-to-lung vaping devices have very tight airflow. You will flood your atomizer coil if you draw air too quickly through your tank or pod. Excess e-liquid must be disposed of if the atomizer coil is flooded. Either it will come out of the bottom of the tank or pod, or it will squirt into your mouth. To prevent that from happening, breathe gently.
What to do if Your Vape Device Pops or Crackles When you’re using a vaping device with a powerful atomizer coil, it’s normal to hear some popping or crackling. Switch to a tank with a mesh coil if you don’t like the noise. In mesh coils, the profile is very flat, which reduces popping and crackling noise.
When Your Vaping Device Whistles When You Inhale
It is possible to use too much air pressure when vaping mouth-to-lung and with mouth-to-lung devices. Your tank’s intake vents may make a whistling sound if that happens. The first step here is to ensure that your tank’s vents are fully open. Consider switching to a tank with larger air vents if your tank still whistles.
