If you’re running a SMOK Nord 2 and you want to get the most bang for your buck, you NEED to run the right nic salt juice in it – here’s my top picks for 2023…
Ah the SMOK Nord 2. It is a fine pod system. It’s reliable, it has a nice draw, the coils are decent, and the battery life – for a pod system – is bloody impressive.
If you’re anything like me, you probably spend way too much time searching for new vape juices to try. I’m pretty fortunate in this regard as gallons of the stuff turns up at our offices every week for us to test.
The upshot of this is that myself and the team tend to get through A LOT of vape juice. We test new flavors and brands every week, so we have a pretty good idea about what’s hot and what’s not.
With the SMOK Nord 2, it runs predominately as an MTL vape. This means you’ll want to be running nic salt juice, of course, but with so many brands to choose from, finding good quality stuff can be pretty tricky.
At least, it used to be. With this guide, which features a selection of flavors and brands voted on by our team of writers, you can save yourself hours of headaches and simply pick the juices you like the look of – simple, right?
Here’s a complete breakdown of our current favorite nic salt juice brands and flavors for the SMOK Nord 2. It is a pretty focussed list but I’m sure you’ll find more than a few options that take your fancy!
