Special Shortfills You Shouldn't Miss
Shortfill e-liquids were introduced to address the inconvenience of 10ml bottles of e-liquid. They give you larger volume of juice (nicotine-free) in underfilled bottles that provide room to add nicotine shots.
Adding nicotine shots to shortfiills dilutes the nicotine strength of the shot. This means that completed shortfills can only boast low nicotine strengths. For this reason, they are best suited to sub ohm vapours as they require lower nicotine strengths to relieve their cravings. Sub ohm set-ups deliver significant vapour. The more vapour you inhale with each puff, the greater the amount of nicotine you will absorb. Short fills tend to have high VG bases suitable for low resistance coils.
Many leading brands offer shortfill versions of popular flavours. As shortfills are convenient and can save you money, they are worth exploring if your device is compatible with high VG juices.
Here are special flavours that we recommend you sample:
1. Dinner Lady — Lemon Tart
