What devices should beginners consider?

Beginners should start with disposable vapes or simple pod kits. These are easy to use, low maintenance, and offer a similar experience to smoking. Once comfortable, you can move on to refillable vape kits for more control over flavour and nicotine strength.

E-liquid contains propylene glycol (PG), vegetable glycerine (VG), flavourings, and optional nicotine. PG carries flavour and gives a throat hit, VG produces vapour, and all products sold at The Vape Escape are TPD compliant and made from high-quality ingredients.

How do I look after my vape battery?

Always use the correct charger, avoid overcharging, and store batteries away from heat or direct sunlight. Keep contacts clean and never use a damaged battery. These steps help ensure safety and extend battery life.

Which nicotine strength should I go for?

Nicotine strength depends on your smoking habits. Heavy smokers often prefer 20mg (2%) nic salts, while light or casual smokers may choose 10mg (1%) or lower. For refillable devices with freebase e-liquids, strengths between 3mg and 12mg are common.

What’s the difference between mouth-to-lung and direct-to-lung vaping?

Mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping is when you draw vapour into your mouth before inhaling it into your lungs, similar to smoking a cigarette. Direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping is when you inhale vapour straight into your lungs for larger clouds and smoother hits. MTL suits higher nicotine, while DTL uses lower nicotine and more powerful kits.

Are all e-liquids suitable for vegetarians?

Most e-liquids are suitable for vegetarians as they use plant-based ingredients like vegetable glycerine. Some flavourings may vary by brand, so we clearly label our products and are happy to help you find vegetarian-friendly or vegan-friendly options.

Why More Smokers Are Switching to Vaping in 2026 - And How The Vape Escape Can Help

Post by The Vape Escape

Feb 12 2026

If you’ve ever tried quitting smoking, you’ll know it’s not exactly a walk in the park. From cravings to habits to that “just one more” mindset, stopping smoking can feel overwhelming.

That’s why more adults across the UK are turning to vaping - and why trusted retailers like The Vape Escape are playing a key role in helping people make the switch.

At The Vape Escape, we specialise in everything vaping-related, from premium vape liquids and starter kits to CBD products and IQOS tobacco kits and sticks.

With a growing online store and 25 physical locations across South Wales and England (and more opening soon!), we’ve built a reputation as a go-to destination for adult vapers - whether you’re brand new or a seasoned pro.

Vaping as a Smoking Alternative

One of the main reasons people explore vaping is as an alternative to smoking traditional cigarettes.

While vaping isn’t risk-free, many adult smokers find it a helpful tool when trying to move away from tobacco.

The ability to control nicotine levels, choose flavours, and find a device that suits your lifestyle can make the transition feel far more manageable.

At The Vape Escape, we’re passionate about education and choice. Everyone’s journey is different, so our range includes:

Whether you’re cutting down, switching over completely, or just exploring alternatives, our knowledgeable team is always on hand to help.

Online Convenience, Local Expertise

What sets The Vape Escape apart is the blend of online convenience with local, in-store expertise.

Prefer browsing from your sofa? Our website makes it easy to explore products and learn more at your own pace. Want face-to-face advice? Our friendly in-store teams are happy to guide you through your options.

With stores across South Wales and England, you can easily find your nearest location using our store locator, giving expert advice never too far away.

Staying Ahead in a Fast-Moving Industry

The vaping industry moves quickly - from regulations and compliance to new products and innovations.

That’s why we stay informed through trusted industry bodies and associations, ensuring we always operate responsibly and keep our customers in the know.

We’re also mindful of what we don’t do. We never market nicotine products to under-18s, and we follow strict UK advertising guidelines. It’s all part of being a responsible retailer that customers can trust.

More Than Just a Vape Shop

At heart, The Vape Escape is about supporting adult customers - whether that’s helping someone quit smoking, find a reliable new kit, or discover a liquid they genuinely enjoy.

We’re friendly, approachable, and just a little bit cheeky, but we always take what we do seriously.

So if you’re over 18, curious about vaping, or looking for a trusted place to get started (or upgrade), The Vape Escape is here for you - online and in-store.

Pop in, browse online, and escape the ordinary.
