Quick Tips to Get the Most from Your Vaping Style
No matter how you prefer to vape, here are some suggestions to enhance the experience.
MTL (Mouth-to-Lung)
A classic style that mimics the feel of smoking.
- Use higher-resistance coils (0.8–1.2Ω) and lower wattage (10–15W)
- Stick to higher nicotine or nic salt e-liquids
- Keep airflow tight for a smoother throat hit
- Short, gentle puffs deliver the best flavor
RDL (Restricted Direct Lung)
The best balance of flavor, vapor, and airflow.
- Use medium-resistance coils (0.6–0.8Ω) with 15–30W
- Experiment with mid-range airflow for a semi-loose draw
- Choose e-liquids with moderate VG/PG balance
- Perfect for those transitioning from MTL to DTL
DTL (Direct-to-Lung)
Ideal for cloud chasers and bold flavor fans.
- Use low-resistance coils (0.1–0.5Ω) and higher wattages (30–80W)
- Max VG e-liquids work best for dense vapor
- Keep airflow open and inhale directly to the lungs
- Prime new coils properly to prevent burning
