How to Put Juice in Any Type of Vape

Date:

No matter what type of vape you have, knowing how to put juice in it is an extremely useful skill. If your vape is designed to be refillable, understanding how to refill it is a crucial part of owning that device. Even if your vape isn’t designed for refilling, though, it may still be possible to add juice to it – and that can potentially help you save a lot of money in the long run.

In addition to helping you save money, knowing how to put juice in your vape can potentially reduce the environmental impact that you cause as a vaper. Around the world, millions of disposable vapes are thrown away each week rather than being recycled. If recycling services aren’t available in your area, it’s possible that you’re throwing your devices away as well. Even if you’re only able to refill and reuse a disposable vape once before discarding it, that’s reducing your environmental impact by half – which sounds like a pretty good idea to us.

Regardless of what type of vaping device you use, we’ve got you covered. Here’s how to put juice in any vape.

How to Put Juice in a Disposable Vape

The method for putting vape juice in a disposable vape depends on the design of the device you’re using. If you’re lucky, you’ll have a device with a top cap that simply pops off. Look at the device closely to determine this. If the mouthpiece has a seam at the bottom, you’re in luck. If the seam goes vertically down the side of the device, it’s going to be much more difficult.

Assuming your device has a pop-off mouthpiece, follow these steps to put juice in it.

  • Remove the mouthpiece, either by wiggling and lifting it or by inserting a thin screwdriver in the seam at the bottom of the mouthpiece and twisting gently.
  • Look for a small rectangular fabric pad and/or a silicone gasket under the mouthpiece. Remove those and set them aside. You’ll need to replace them after refilling the device. Under the pad and/or gasket, you’ll see a material that looks slightly fluffy. This is the device’s wick; leave it in place.
  • Add a few drops of e-liquid to the wick and wait a few seconds for it to absorb. If the wick still looks dry, add a few more drops. Continue this process until the wick looks very damp. Be careful not to add too much e-liquid, though, because a disposable vape will leak if you add more e-liquid than the wick can hold.
  • Reassemble the device carefully.

Before you try putting juice in a disposable vape, you need to decide whether doing so will actually be worth the effort.

  • If the device doesn’t have a USB port, the battery isn’t rechargeable. In this case, there’s no reason to bother with trying to refill the device. You’ll end up wasting much of your e-liquid because the battery will die.
  • If the device has a clamshell design with a vertical seam on the side, the two halves of the device are meant to snap together permanently. This type of disposable vape is much more difficult to open, and the plastic will probably break if you try to do so.
  • Even if you’re able to refill a disposable vape successfully, there’s no way to prevent the device from eventually producing a burnt flavor because a disposable vape doesn’t have a replaceable atomizer coil. If your device already tastes burnt, it’ll only get worse.

How to Put Juice in a Pre-Filled Pod System

A pre-filled pod system is a step up from disposable vapes because the battery portion of the device is reusable and may last anywhere from several months to a year or even longer. Still, the pods themselves are wasteful because they’re designed to be thrown away once they’re empty. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could refill and reuse your empty pods instead? It turns out that you can in many cases.

Note that vape pods are proprietary, which means that your pod system may differ from what’s described here. However, these general instructions will work for many devices.

  • Look for the pod’s seam to determine where the two halves connect. Open the pod, either by inserting a screwdriver in the seam and twisting or by locating the locking tabs and pushing them in. Inside the pod, you’ll see a rubber plug or gasket that seals the pod and prevents leaking.
  • Remove the plug or gasket with a pair of tweezers, being very careful not to tear or stretch it. If you don’t replace the gasket exactly as it was originally, the pod will leak.
  • Add e-liquid to the pod. Don’t fill it all the way to the top because the gasket will require some space.
  • Push the long sides of the pod gently with one hand while replacing the gasket with your other hand. When you release the pod, it’ll return to its original shape. This will cause a vacuum to form, which will help to prevent the pod from leaking.
  • Reassemble the pod.

How to Put Juice in a Refillable Pod System

We’ll close this article by talking about refillable pod systems and vape mods with tanks. Since these types of vapes are actually designed for refilling, putting juice in them is easy as long as you know how. If you plan to refill your vaping device on a regular basis, this is really the type of vape that you should be using.

We’ll start with refillable pod systems.

  • When the pod is empty, remove it from the device and look for a silicone filling plug on the bottom or side. Put your fingernail under the edge of the plug and lift up gently to open the pod. If your pod doesn’t have a plug, the mouthpiece probably comes off. Wiggle the mouthpiece to remove it.
  • Put your e-liquid bottle in the filling hole and squeeze it to add e-liquid to the pod. Stop when the pod is almost full because the plug requires some room. If the pod is overfilled, replacing the plug will cause a leak.
  • Replace the plug and put the pod back into the device.

How to Put Juice in a Vape Tank

Glass vape tanks are the crème de la crème of the vaping world. They hold the most e-liquid and produce the biggest clouds with the best flavor. Since vape tanks produce such large clouds, though, they also consume a lot of vape juice. For that reason, it’s important for them to be easy to refill. Here’s how to put juice in a vape tank.

  • Determine how the tank opens. All modern vape tanks open from the top, so the tank’s hardware will usually have a button or marker.
    • If the tank has a button, press it to open the tank.
    • If the tank has a marker, move the top hardware in the direction of the marker to slide the tank open.
    • If you don’t see either of those, the top part of the tank probably twists off.
  • Add e-liquid through the tank’s filling port. The filling port is always offset from the central chimney, which is the large hole in the middle.
  • Close the tank.
