Introduction

The question that all new vapers in the UK ask themselves is: How long does the disposable vape last? The solution varies with parameters such as the number of puffs, size of the battery, amount of e-liquid, and frequency of use. We scale down the disposable lifespan at Britaces UK so you can manage your inspections--and your vaping schedule.

What Does Puff Count Mean?

Disposables are marketed by manufacturers with estimates such as 600 puffs. But exactly what does that mean?
Average users take between 1-3 days to finish a 600 puff vape.
Light users can go out to 5 days.
Heavy users could complete it within one day.
Keep in mind that the number of puffs depends upon the depth and frequency of inhalation.

Factors which influence Vape Longevity.

• Battery Capacity: There are several disposables that have a 280-550mAh battery, which is the one that supports the puff estimate.
  
• E-Liquid Volume: 2 ml (typically as required by the UK TPD law), sufficient to produce 600-800 puffs depending on coil efficiency.
  
• Draw Style: This is longer, harder, and consumes more e-liquid and battery.
  
• Storage: When exposed to heat and moisture, a battery may drain prematurely or the e-liquid may thicken.

Indications That It is time to replenish the Disposable.

• Weaker vapor production
  
• Burnt taste or dry hits
  
• Flashing light indicator (where fitted)
  
•  No airflow when inhaling
  

Can You Extend the Lifespan?

Not exactly. Disposables cannot be rechargeable or refillable (except in rare cases). However, you can:

• Take shorter puffs
  
• Store in a cool, dry place
  
• Always use it so that the e-liquid does not degrade.
  
• Unused disposables have a shelf life of 3 years.
  
• A disposable vape with a seal can last 12-18 months as long as it is kept locked away.
  
• Store away in the sunlight.
  
• Avoid extreme cold
  
• Store upright if possible

Summary

The life expectancy of a disposable vape will rely on the number of puffs, usage, and design of the product. Most UK devices are around 600 puffs but your mileage could differ. Britaces are a sure thing that you can anticipate when vaping.

FAQs

What is a light user of a 600 puff vape?
Give or take 3-5 days, based on frequency of use.

How do we make vape life the shortest?
Prolonged and repeated drags and warm conditions.

That normally means that the battery is dead or the e-liquid is empty.

Is my disposable rechargeable or refillable?
A majority of them cannot be refilled or recharged at all.

How many days until an unopened disposable vape expires?
Somewhere between 12-18 months based on storage.

Is there an effect of nicotine strength on puff time?
Not in itself, but greater strength can lower the frequency of your puffing.

Are the 600 puff vapes the same?
No, such aspects as draw style, battery size, coil design count.
