Choosing an eJuice is one of the more enjoyable parts of vaping, and vaping itself caught on quickly: the CDC published a data brief on 2014 figures showing how many US adults had tried it. Plenty of sellers offer eJuice, but they are not all equal, and a low price tells you nothing about what is in the bottle.
This is a liquid you take into your body. Before buying discount vapor juice, check it against the six signs below to confirm the product is legitimate.
1. You can identify the maker
Know who manufactured the juice before ordering it from an unfamiliar online retailer. Two basic questions filter out most low-grade liquid:
- Is there a website for the manufacturer?
- Have other buyers reviewed this eJuice, and do they vouch for it?
2. The label looks professional and complete
Sloppy, non-compliant labeling is the quickest giveaway of poor discount vapor. The law requires a warning label, and the label should also describe the ingredients. A maker that cuts corners on the label may be cutting them in places that matter more to your health.
3. Nicotine, PG and VG levels are stated
However cheap the bottle, these three figures should always be available to you. Some people have serious allergies to PG and need a mix that is high in VG. Others want to keep track of how much nicotine they take in. Neither is possible if the content is not disclosed.
4. The ingredients hold no unwelcome surprises
Certain eJuice brands have contained chemicals that may be harmful. The names to look for include diketones such as diacetyl and acetyl propionyl, along with acetoin. If any appear in a juice you use, research the possible health effects before making it a regular purchase.
5. It comes in glass
Plastic bottles were once standard for eJuice. The trade has moved steadily toward glass, for reasons that include BPA compounds in plastic, sterilization and shelf life. With cheap vapor, play it safe and choose a glass container.
6. The cap is child-resistant
Low-cost juice can come in low-cost packaging that opens too easily. In a home with children, saving money is never worth that risk to their safety. Insist on a child-proof cap; this reported accident shows what is at stake.
The bottom line
The cheapest bottle online is tempting, but price should come after the basics. Knowing where a juice was made, what it contains and whether it meets safety standards should be non-negotiable for anything you bring home.
