Nicotine salt eliquid is different from your regular eliquids ( that are often referred to as “free-base” nicotine). It is claimed the nic salt is the natural state of nicotine in a tobacco leaf, and that nic salt delivery would offer the satisfaction, similar to that of an actual cigarette.

Without going all “science” on you – nicotine absorption rate into the body – closely matches that of smoking traditional cigarettes with nic salts, and at the same time it seems less potent than freebase nicotine at the same concentration – that’s why it comes in much higher mg strengths. Salt Nicotine is a treated form of nicotine that saturates both Nitrogen ports, which neutralizes the adverse harshness of freebase nicotine. In actuality, the naturally grown tobacco plant produces what the industry refers to as Salt Nicotine and not freebase nicotine.

For someone just quitting – it really mimics the nic hit of smoking. You generally won’t or can’t chain vape it as the hit is stronger. Like a cigarette – you’ll take your puffs and feel satisfied. Batteries and coil life will be extended as well as your overall use and consumption is much lower.

Nic salts were really popularized by the Juul device. As mentioned above, it’s made for high ohm, low wattage devices. Any of the new closed system devices that are refillable would suit you – that would include: iCare, Bo, Juul, Von Erl, MyJet, PHIX, Fitt, Pulse, Suorin,Breeze, etc, etc…. If you want the hit, but aren’t worried about carrying a “stealth” device, recommended would be the Nautilus 2 with the 1.8 ohm (6-14W) coil for a cool vape and the 0.7 ohm (15W-23W) for a warmer vape – used on your favorite device.
