Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with nicotine salts lately, trying to find something that hits better than what I’ve been using. You know, something smoother, but still gives you that satisfying nicotine rush. And let me tell you, it’s been a journey.
I started by reading up on what nicotine salts actually are. Turns out, they’re basically just a different form of nicotine that’s supposed to be less harsh on your throat. Some folks online were saying they’re more addictive, but whatever, I was willing to take the risk. They also mentioned it mutes the flavor or something, but I didn’t find that to be true at all.

My first stop was grabbing a few different brands of salt nic e-liquids. I made sure to get a variety of flavors because, hey, who doesn’t like options? I also picked up a new pod system that caught my eye. It had a little screen and adjustable wattage, which seemed pretty cool. Plus, it came with both mesh and ceramic coils. I’d heard good things about mesh coils and flavor, so I was pretty excited to try them out. This one guy online said he got better flavor from the mesh coil than any other pod he owned so that made me feel better about my purchase.
After filling up the pod with some mango-flavored salt nic, I took my first puff. And… wow. It was definitely different. It felt smoother going down, and the flavor was actually pretty intense. I did a side-by-side comparison with my old setup, and the difference was really noticeable. The salt nic hit me faster, and the nicotine rush felt more pronounced. I can see why some people say they’re more effective. And honestly, comparing the salt nic to my old juice was like night and day. The salt nic was way less harsh.
I played around with the wattage on the pod system, going from 10W all the way up to 30W. I found that the sweet spot for me was around 20W. It gave me a good balance of flavor and throat hit. I also swapped out the mesh coil for the ceramic one, just to see how it compared. Personally, I preferred the mesh coil. It seemed to bring out the flavor of the e-liquid a bit more. Also comparing the mesh coil to the ceramic coil was a huge difference. I guess that guy online was right about that.
So, here’s the deal: I’ve been using this salt nic setup for a few weeks now, and I’m pretty happy with it. It’s definitely smoother than what I was using before, and it gives me a more satisfying nicotine hit.
Here’s what I used:
- Device: Some random pod system with a screen and adjustable wattage (10-30W).
- Coils: Mesh coil (my favorite) and a ceramic coil (it was okay).
- E-liquid: A bunch of different salt nic flavors, but mango was my go-to.
I’m not saying salt nic is for everyone, but if you’re looking for a smoother, more intense vaping experience, it’s definitely worth checking out. Just remember to be mindful of the nicotine content, because these things can pack a punch!
