Vape Strength
Whether you want to reduce your nicotine intake or are using vapes for the first time, you may be wondering which vape strength is right for you.
As a general rule, a higher nicotine strength is more suited to experienced vapers, but there are a few things to consider when choosing the right vape strength.
What does vape strength mean?
Vape strength refers to the amount of nicotine present in the e liquid, which is often referred to as vape juice, measured in mg per ml.
At Haypp, we offer different nicotine strengths, including 10 mg and 20 mg. If you are looking to consume less nicotine, we also sell nicotine free vapes.
What is the right vape nicotine strength for me?
Whether you're using a disposable vape or a reusable vape, there are many different factors you should take into consideration when deciding which nicotine strength is right for you.
If you've been consuming nicotine products for quite some time, you will likely have a high nicotine tolerance. If so, you can aim for choosing the right nicotine strength by looking for products with a higher nicotine level, such as 18-20 mg.
However, if you are a beginner, you may prefer to start with a vape starter kit, or a product with a lower nicotine strength e liquid, such as 10 mg or even lower.
If you are looking to cut your nicotine intake entirely, the nicotine free option is suitable for you. This is a great way to enjoy the vaping experience without consuming any amount of nicotine.
Different kinds of vape strengths
Finding the right vape strength can make all the difference in your vaping experience. Below, you’ll discover a range of options we offer—from low-nicotine vapes to stronger choices and even nicotine-free alternatives—designed to suit every preference.
20 mg
A vape strength of 20 mg is suitable if you’re looking for something with a higher nicotine strength. For reference, the average cigarette contains 11 to 19 mg of nicotine.
Brands such as Elfbar, Lost Mary and Elux offer a wide variety of products if you are looking for 20 mg. Bestsellers include the Lost Mary Lemon Lime BM600 with its sweet, citrus-inspired flavour and Elux Vibe Grape Blue Raspberry Cherry.
If fruit-based flavours aren't your thing, there are other options, such as the SKE Crystal Bar Tobacco, the Lost Mary Menthol BM600, or the Fuyl Spearmint Menthol 600.
10 mg
10 mg vapes are a great choice if you want to minimise your nicotine consumption. Many leading vape brands in the UK, such as Elf Bar and Vuse, offer products with 10 mg nicotine levels.
Some of the best-sellers include the Vuse Go Mint Ice 700. It comes with a mixture of menthol and peppermint flavour, which is quite popular. If you prefer a more traditional flavour, there is the Vuse Go Creamy Tobacco.
All products within the Vuse Go range are designed to last for up to 700 puffs and come with nicotine included. If you prefer a reusable or rechargeable vape rather than disposable vapes, Vuse prefilled pods might be something for you.
Elf Bar, known for producing some of the best disposable vapes on the market, also has many products with a nicotine strength of 10 mg. Among these, there are popular flavours such as Blueberry Sour Raspberry, and Pink Lemonade.
Alternative strengths
At Haypp, our goal is to provide the ultimate vaping experience for our customers. That’s why we offer products of different flavours as well as strengths.
You can also shop for disposable vape kits, or prefilled pods, at strengths of 12 mg and 18 mg, which gives you a nice middle ground in terms of nicotine content.
0 mg
We also stock a wide range of products that are entirely nicotine free (0 mg). The liquid contains no nic salts, while still giving you the traditional vaping experience.
Two of the best-sellers are the Elux Legend 3500 Blueberry Cherry Cranberry and the Elux Legend 3500 Red Apple Ice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does vape strength mean?
Vape strength refers to the amount of nicotine present in the vape's e liquid or vape juice. It’s typically measured in milligrams (mg).
How do I choose the right nicotine strength?
Consider your preferred vaping styles, the flavours, or the brands.
Why can’t I buy vapes stronger than 20 mg?
In the UK, it’s against the law to sell an e liquid prefilled pod or disposable vapes with nicotine strengths higher than 20 mg.
What does e liquid mean?
It’s the liquid stored inside disposable vapes, e cigarettes and similar products. When heated, it turns into vapour. It’s sometimes referred to as vape juice.
Does the strength impact the flavour of a vape?
Many users find that the nicotine strength indeed does impact the flavour. It typically produces a more pronounced throat hit, while giving off a nicotine-like taste. However, this often complements the flavour of the vape itself.
Are vapes with stronger strength more expensive?
No, the strength does not tend to affect the price. Prices can vary depending on the device itself; vapes offering 700 puffs can be more expensive than ones with only 300 puffs. The price also depends on the brand or the e liquid flavour.
What nicotine strength should I use as a beginner?
Keep your nicotine intake relatively low and try different flavours. You can always increase the intake over time.
