Saltnic

Saltnic is another organic form of nicotine. It is different to our historically or rather typically used free base nicotine. Which we are all familiar with.

Nicotine Salt

Nicotine Salt or known as Saltnic. Is a type of nicotine that forms naturally in leaf tobacco. It is generally considered to be a more stable form of nicotine vs. traditional freebase nicotine salt found in most e-liquids.  Nicotine Salt requires a higher temperatures in order to properly vaporize and the ions don’t travel to the nicotine receptors in your body as easily.  In other words. Nicotine Salts are not the most efficient way to deliver nicotine to your body…so why use it?

Rise in Popularity

Nicotine Salt rose in popularity with the release of a device called the JUUL and once that device became a staple in the industry. People demanded more and better options.  Now Nicotine Salts are readily available and rising even more in popularity.

When you vape traditional freebase nicotine. Most people wouldn’t choose something over 18mg. As the hit would be much too harsh.  However, with Nicotine Salts. Most people who vape 3mg freebase nicotine are able to comfortably vape 25mg-50mg Nicotine Salts and Nicotine Salts help to mimic the sensation of smoking a combustible cigarette.

Dangerous?

This can be confusing, and for good reason, as most everything we’ve been taught about e-liquid would lead us to believe that 50mg of nicotine would be extremely harsh and even potentially dangerous, but Nicotine Salt e-liquids have a special ingredient called Benzoic Acid that helps to make Nicotine Salts as smooth and palatable in higher strengths.

Saltnic is one of the most effective types of nicotine to help aid cigarette smokers in ditching the habit. Due to the higher nicotine content, Nicotine Salts more closely resemble the effects of smoking a cigarette and therefore help curb the craving.

Only for Pod Devices

We cannot emphasize enough the importance of only using Nicotine Salts in small, low wattage devices like the Vaporesso Renova Zero. DO NOT USE NICOTINE SALTS IN ANY KIND OF HIGH POWERED AND/OR SUB-OHM DEVICES. If you want to use Nicotine Salts, my personal favorite device is the Vaporesso Podstick because it’s small enough to fit in a pocket or purse, and there aren’t any settings like wattage to mess with + it has enough battery life and a big enough e-liquid capacity to last all day.
