MADE IN CHINA VAPE: THE TRUTH ABOUT DISPOSABLE VAPES - SMOKO POD VS. DISPOSABLE VAPES
Over the last year, a strange phenomenon has started in the UK. It seems many people are trying disposable e cigarettes and Disposable Vapes as a result of the wide-spread availability - in every petrol station, every convenience store and even mobile phone shops. This comparison will clearly highlight why the SMOKO VAPE Pod is better value for money, produces less waste, delivers superior quality and is better for the environment compared to these cheaply-made disposable vapes from China.
DISPOSABLE VAPES ARE EXPENSIVE - SMOKO VAPE POD IS BETTER VALUE FOR MONEY
There is a strange misconception that disposable e cigs and disposable vapes are a cheaper solution compared to vape pods. But this couldn’t be further from the truth.
Most typical Disposable vapes will proclaim to have up to "600" puffs and cost £5.99.
Compare this to the SMOKO VAPE POD which has 600 puffs but costs £3.33/pod (based on £10 for a pack of 3 Pods).
So ROUND #1 goes to SMOKO VAPE PODs at 44% CHEAPER than a disposable vape!
SMOKO VAPE PODS ARE 44% CHEAPER THAN DISPOSABLE VAPES
DISPOSABLE VAPES CREATE WAY MORE WASTE THAN SMOKO VAPE PODS
Let's look at the footprint of disposable vapes. They are designed with a battery built in, the e-liquid prefilled and can ONLY BE USED ONCE! So every time you use a disposable vape, the battery and all of the plastic that it comes in ends up in the bin (or on the street as you may have seen).
The leading disposable brand weighs in at 29 grams. If you use 1 disposable vape every 2 days, that equals 435 grams each month!
A SMOKO VAPE Starter Kit, which uses a rechargeable battery that can be used for 3 to 6 months, only weighs 7 grams. That equates 105 grams of waste each month.
SMOKO also have a handy recycling program for empty e-cig and vape refills. We work with the leading industrial recycling group Reconomy to ensure as much of our consumed products do not end up in landfill!
From an environmental point of view - ROUND #2 goes to the SMOKO VAPE Pod at 76% less waste compared to disposable vapes.

QUALITY QUALITY QUALITY - NOT ALL VAPES ARE CREATED EQUALLY
The majority of disposable vapes that are now sold in the UK and around the world are made in China using Chinese flavours, ingredients and e-liquids. Now we are not saying all-things made in China are inferior (as so many amazing products are made in China including our batteries and hardware), but when it comes to what you are consuming and putting in your lungs, it's so important to know where your e-liquids are made.
When we started SMOKO over 10 years ago, we visited 15 of the biggest factories in China but not one single factory would show us where they made their e-liquids.... (alarm bells ringing). So we decided to do thing differently!
We only use the highest quality flavours and ingredients in our e-liquids and they are proudly MADE IN THE UK, so you know you are getting the very best quality products that are all tested to the superior UK Standards.
So if you are looking for UK Quality in your vape, then ROUND #3 goes to SMOKO VAPE Pods that are Made in the UK!!!!

DISPOSABLE VAPE FAQ
What are Disposable Vapes?
Disposable vapes are a type of electronic cigarette designed for single use. Compact and portable, these devices come pre-filled with e-liquid, making them a convenient option for those new to vaping or seeking a hassle-free experience. Many people turn to disposable vapes as a way to quit smoking, as they mimic the sensation of traditional cigarettes without the need for refills or maintenance.
Typically, disposable vapes consist of a battery, a heating element, and a tank pre-filled with e-liquid. They are often draw-activated, meaning you simply inhale to activate the device and produce vapour. Available in a wide range of flavours and nicotine strengths, disposable vapes cater to diverse preferences, making them a popular choice among vapers.
However, while they offer convenience, disposable vapes can be more expensive in the long run and generate significant waste compared to reusable options like the SMOKO VAPE Pod.
Quality and Safety of E-liquids
When it comes to vaping, the quality and safety of e-liquids are paramount. E-liquids, the substances vaporised in electronic cigarettes, contain various ingredients, including nicotine, flavourings, and other additives. Ensuring consistent quality and safety is crucial for a satisfying and safe vaping experience.
To guarantee you are using high-quality e-liquids, choose products from reputable manufacturers that adhere to strict quality control standards. Look for e-liquids made with pharmaceutical-grade nicotine and food-grade flavourings, and ensure they have been tested for purity and safety by reputable third-party laboratories.
Key factors to consider include:
- Nicotine Content: Verify that the e-liquid contains the correct amount of nicotine as specified on the label.
- Ingredient Quality: Opt for e-liquids made with high-quality ingredients.
- Testing and Certification: Check for third-party lab testing to ensure purity and safety.
- Labelling and Packaging: Ensure the e-liquid is properly labelled and packaged, with clear usage instructions and warnings.
By choosing e-liquids that meet these criteria, you can enjoy a consistent quality vaping experience, knowing that your e-liquid is safe and reliable.
