Liquid Reviews – June 2019

 Liquid Reviews – June 2019

We tested two new sub-ohm salt e-liquids and eight traditional liquids. Sub-ohm salt e-liquids are made for sub-ohm devices (such as rebuildable drip atomizers and open tank systems) and come in much lower nicotine strengths than traditional salt liquids (typically 0 mg, 3 mg, 6 mg and 12 mg instead of between 30 mg and 50 mg in traditional salt liquids). With sub-ohm salt nicotine, vapers are also no longer confined to using pod-based systems. Standard nicotine is typically extracted from the nicotine salt naturally present in tobacco leaves using ammonia. Nicotine salt, however, is derived directly from natural tobacco leaf without ammonia. Users say that sub-ohm salt liquids provide a smoother and cleaner vaping experience.
