Buying Advice For New Users, Or Anyone That Wants To Ditch Disposables For Good…
What’s Better Than Disposable Vape?
Disposable vapes are trash. They clutter the environment, they’re single-use products, and the cost a bomb to run long-term.
Refillable pod vapes are infinitely better than disposables. They cost less to run, you have more choice, they last for years, and they perform significantly better with better battery and more flavour.
Best Alternative To Disposable Vapes?
The best alternative to a disposable vape right now is a refillable pod system, and right now the top-rated pod vape is either the Vaporesso XROS 5 or the OXVA XLIM Pro 2 DNA.
Both are exceptional for flavour, coil longevity, and battery life.
The OXVA is more aimed at experienced users (it has more fancy settings and capabilities) while the XROS 5 is like an iPhone and is the best option for 99.9% of people: it just works seamlessly, gets out the way.
How To Mimic Disposable Vapes?
To make the switch away from disposables, you need to get a device that mimics how disposables vape.
For this, you’ll need two things: 1) an MTL pod vape like the Vaporesso XROS 5 and 2) Bar Salts vape juice like our Crystalize range which is designed to closely mimic the juice used by popular disposable vapes.
This setup is so much better than a disposable because it is a hell of a lot cheaper and the flavour is even better. And once you find a vape juice flavour you like, you can buy our juice in Longfill format too (60ml or 120ml).
10ML Bar Salts Range
Our 10ml Bar Salts are built for MTL perfection—smooth hits, bold taste, and that unmistakable disposable-style kick.
- Available in 5mg, 10mg & 20mg Nic Salt
- Perfect 50VG/50PG blend for pods
- Leak-free nozzle & childproof cap
- No fuss. Just flavour.
Pop it in your pod and rip away.
QuickMix Nic Salt Vape Juice
If you’re sick of draining 10ml bottles every couple of days. You get 20ml of nic salt, over 6000 puffs, and no messing around. More flavour. More puffs. Better value. Just mix the two bottles with the nozzle-to-nozzle system and you’re good to go. No leaks. No bulk. Just big hits made simple.
120ML Bar Salt Longfills
Designed for pod kits and MTL devices, this format gives you 60ml of concentrated flavour base, ready to be mixed up into 120ml of vape juice. That means fewer refills, way more value, and zero waste from tossing out single-use vapes.
